I saw the 4th episode last night. A man with a radiation sickness came into Jericho.

Yeah, I saw that one, but I thought that was only the third episode, I thought I only missed one episode at the beginning of the season, I must have missed two.

1st episode: the guy comes to Jericho. Denver gets blown up.
2nd episode: a radioactive rain comes over Jericho. Some action with escaped prisoners.
3rd episode: after the radioactive rain. The perople of Jericho sends expeditions to find more information.
4th episode: the man with the radiation sickness.

Two new things. Power was restored to Jericho but for some reason everyone in town was blocked from using the internet, except Mr. Hawkins, who had some sort of secure connection to a satellite and he started visiting some Russian websites. At the very end of the episode the local bar starts receiving a satellite feed and it is showing a podium with the Presiden't seal on it, after several minutes of nothing they lose the signal again, only seconds later tremors can be felt in the bar, everyone rushes outside to see a couple ICBM's taking off towards their intended targets.

So, who still thinks it's the Chinese?

Now I am stumped... Not sure who Hawkins works for or where the kids was for the year that he was gone.

Now tell me one thing... was that the fakest fire you have ever seen when the school was burning.... OMG!!! terrible.

lol, yeah, it was bad. I also love how everyone turned on every piece of electronic equipment they had when the power came back on. That's just common sense right there, when power is restored you always turn off everything but the very basic necessities. Every light in ever building was turned on and it was the middle of the day.

oh come on, they turned off the Junk Box..lol

Skynet. Im sure that something like Skynet attacked the Russians and they attacked the US, or maybe there was an some sort of a conspiracy for attcking Russia.

You can't rule out Martians just because they launched an ICBM and nukes went off. It wouldn't really matter, though, because if Martians had the capacity to wage war on another planet humans would be f'ed in the A anyways.

In one of the last episodes, it was mentioned that a group of "men" in a minivan were about to set off a nuke, but were intercepted by the NYPD thus saving New York...
