I'm glad to hear it! I would be very disappointed if it didn't

I'll be in my bunk….

Followed by his totally nonchalant stroll right into a wall of corn

Did I imagine that little caress and look he gave the fridge moments after he finished his dramatic memory recall? The love story begins!

Although it did lose it's edge a little bit by the time I watched the episode. I saw the cat slip in the promos about 10 times that week

That episode was my introduction to the show. I would recommend it be used as such for anyone who has somehow managed to avoid contact with Sunny by now. So many funny moments.

"Did you eat the STICKER??"

"Is it racist if we don't eat the black guy?"

I think that was a pretty gentle ribbing. If I was trying to be a dick I wouldn't have explained the conclusion we've all come to, and pointed out the (understandable) reason why it has confused a lot of people.

Ha! I didn't pick up on that. That's actually pretty great

I would like to travel back in time to when I finished watching the first half of the season, and lower my expectations

I might be wrong. But I think Hassler was hinting at the Abbies being able to communicate across distances in his video file on the computer. Maybe they communicate telepathically like Buggers in Enders game. As soon as the first one saw the fence down, it told everyone in the area.

I actually don't object that much to the idea of it. I just wish they had executed it in a more believable way. Like maybe instead of a straight cut to commercial, there could have been some hint of chaos about to strike the mountain control area. Loss of power/some gas pumped in through climate control vents or…

Hey! It's our weekly misinterpreted Pope question!

I think this theory would require Ben to have been in a coma for a very long time, before being put into stasis with the other adults. Since he had no memory of what had happened between his head injury and waking up 3 years later

well done!

The only problem I have with that idea, is that they don't really even seem interested in the adults. They seem to be more of a necessary nuisance, who only function as a transition to the next generation.

I haven't been able to put together everything we've learned so far into any kind of working theory. I just know that what we are supposed to believe right now doesn't make much sense. And, as you mentioned, Ethan's admitted proclivity for hallucinations is going to play a role at some point. Unless it was only…

Exactly! This was the first thing I thought of when I saw all those people. You've got your town right there! You don't need a control room, if there is nobody to control. That's why there has to be more to it than the story we've been told

Your opinion is bad, and you should feel bad!
