A raid goes wrong, and a member of the team goes down…
Check out this short video promo for a special broadcast of Numb3rs – which kicks off 4 new episodes that lead up to the 100th episode.
What your math teacher told you was true. Don’t ever forget a math concept because you’ll use it again! Will Charlie’s (David Krumholtz) confidence survive this week, and even more important, will Don (Rob Morrow) survive Charlie’s math equation? Read more about Numb3rs‘ The Fifth Man.
Friday nights has been an amazing night for crime drama on CBS. Flashpoint and Numb3rs air back-to-back. Although we’ve had a few Numb3rs repeats here and there in the past few weeks, things are getting tense as Charlie makes a critical error in his math calculations, and it puts Don in serious harm’s way in Friday’s upcoming episode of Numb3rs, called The Fifth Man.
The team investigates related occurrences of home invasions, and Charlie is called in to use math calculations to help profile the suspects. Don is severely injured and his life is in danger due to a problem with Charlie’s miscalculation.
Michael Gaston (Fringe, Jericho) and Alan Blumenfeld (Heroes) guest star on this episode which airs on Friday, April 24, at 9:00 PM ET on CBS.

What an excellent episode this was, its right up there with my top 5 fav Numb3rs episodes. I thought the cast really stepped up to the plate. You felt the pain and worry, combined with the teams’ anger at the ‘5th man’ for hurting Don plus Nikki’s guilt over not having Don’s back even though it wasn’t her fault.
However I have to give major kudos to Judd Hirsch for the scene where Alan was telling Robin about when Don was born. Judd didn’t need to be overly dramatic or be hysterical to convey to the audience what it was like for Alan as a first time father because it made me tear up and Judd really convey his pain just by simple facial expressions.
I can’t wait for season 5 DVD to come out so I can watch this episode over and over again.
I should mention did anyone else catch the blond woman in the episode? and if you did, did you know that’s Rob Morrow’s real-life wife?
