Agreed.  They had access to all of this information, but they were just making guesses about what was going on in the car, or why this was happening.

There is the bit of throwaway dialogue earlier when the police are setting up when the captain (?) talks about a recent shooting that they (or the British police) were involved in and it all went wrong.  So she is aware of the optics of this situation and doesn’t want things to go wrong again.

“You kidnap a man, threaten to kill him for hours, and the man suddenly decides to remain as your hostage with death imminent? Sorry, I didn’t buy it.”

The most unrealistic part of this episode was how badly Danny was playing Tetris.  Just dropping pieces in the middle of the playing field without rotating them at all?  Does he even want to win?

I did like how the GAME OVER was just hanging in the air to the side of them, and Danny hit it with his fist in frustration.

Pretty sure that in games like this, people find one avatar and stick with it.  People rarely switch avatars once they find one they like.

Cats make everything better.

“I am, again, dropping the episode a full letter grade over the A.I. intro.”

I saw the top part of this image and thought “Oh, this looks cool” and then saw the Slott credit at the bottom and realized “Oh, this is probably terrible.”

“Genius!”
“Thank you!”
“Thank YOU!”

I remember after her death in the first episode someone posted here that they checked IMDB and she was credited for every (?) other episode this season, so they assumed she was not actually dead.  It would be funny if she was credited in the rest of the episodes this season because they keep showing her death scene.

Like White Christmas, this feels like they had three ideas in the writer’s room that they decided did not have enough story to make their own episodes, so they just put them all together into one episode.

Yes, the daughter running away from home and the mother realizing the Arkangel is damaged so there is no way to track her daughter and she’s probably lost to her forever is a totally “meh” ending.

I remember watching the Doomsday Defense episode of Millennium when it aired where they explained that the Selfosophy movement was able to make their books best sellers by having their members purchase multiple copies of them from any bookstore them came across.

To be fair, the only reason it can’t climb a tree is that one of its front limbs was broken off.

That’s not the dog whistling. The script for this episode says “Man whistles on radio”.

Wow, that was a terrible take both then and now.

Wow, someone was not paying attention to earlier in the episode when she had to cut out the tracker shard embedded in her leg, and how she described what she was doing (and why) on the walkie-talkie.

Now I’m curious what happened in the 2 out of 1,000 simulations where Frank and Amy didn’t successfully escape the “city”.
