“Team Scorpion,” he said, a small, genuine smile cracking his stoic mask. “Let’s go be smart.”
A new alert blared. A plane. A bomb. The usual. Scorpion Full Series

Season Three broke them. The Centipede. A rival team. A betrayal that cut to the bone. Walter, in a desperate gambit to save them all, made a choice that sent him to a war zone, separated from Paige just as they'd finally found each other. When he came back, he was different. Harder.
