\"Alphas<\/a><\/p>\n

Welcome back Alphas<\/a> fans!\"Syfy<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I am off to a fun Creation Entertainment<\/a> event, the 2012 Stargate<\/a> convention in Chicago Illinois! So see you in two weeks for my next Alphas review after my convention experiences! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Regarding this week’s outstanding episode of Alphas<\/a> written by Adam Levy<\/a>, I hope all of you got your parental consent forms signed because it is time to go to rehab…<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Alphas<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Alphas<\/a>\u201cWhen push comes to shove\u201d is a phrase that has not been around in the English language for a long time. There are several guesses as to its origin. Some believe it originated in rugby, wherein two forwards from opposing teams \u2018push off\u2019 against each other when the rules are broken. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Others note that the phrase has been referenced in works dating as far back to the 1930s, although rugby is a little older than that<\/em>. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Alphas<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The meaning of the phrase, however, has not changed. In short, once all of the easy avenues have been exhausted, drastic action must<\/em> be taken to solve a problem. It often may mean a rougher plan than was intended, or changing one\u2019s perspective outlook. But at the core, it just means something must be done.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Such is the case of this week\u2019s Alphas<\/a> on Syfy. When faced with the realization that Nina Theroux, (Laura Mennell<\/a>), is behind many robberies within the city, Doctor Lee Rosen, (David Strathairn<\/a>). and his team of Alphas have to overcome some personal difficulties to stop her.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
