It seems as good as the theories presented here (an impeachable source, I know):

I thought the grade was too low. This was a well constructed finale with several cliffhanger elements peaking at the end, without forcing. Wu's discovery is a case in point.

Given the way the way it was described by Monroe, I think they are wise not to try to show the Grimm-eyes effect. It can't possibly live up to Monroe's description.

Perhaps trapping them inside an infinite loop? :-)

Yes, "my day" was short, it ran roughly from Fantastic Four #1 to Incredible Hulk #1.

Artificial insemination is not the same as a test tube baby (that's in vitro fertilization)

In my day, people had to go into space to get a dose of radiation that should have been lethal but gave them superpowers instead.

There are two orthogonal things to test. Is it safe (i.e. reliable under stress)? Is it stealthy?

If it didn't bother him at all, it wouldn't work as humor either.

Raj travelled to America on a journey of self-discovery. He's still looking :-)

And not once have Philip and Elizabeth's orders automatically self-destructed. Truly, our TV versions of our spies are decades ahead of our TV version of theirs.

Which is weird, given that his job apparently depends on a grant that ties him to a very specific research area. Aren't most people in that position postdocs? And aren't they usually in a rather precarious financial position? (And yes, Sheldon is single, but he spends a fair amount on his various hobbies, and eats a…

If you want to see show featuring a couple but downplaying the romance between them, Cam/Mitchell on Modern Family may be more to your liking.

I'm sorry it doesn't work for you, but I find it funny. It's a hyperbolic treatment of the impossible to please parent, and also a spoof of the child with psychologist parents trope (e.g., Brenda from Six Feet Under). One reason I think it works is that Leonard seems to handle it OK.

Yes, maybe all they need is the diameter(s) of the iron balls themselves.

It could have been a reference to the Posse Comitatus. Their most famous shootout wasn't until 1983, but they were on the upswing in the 70s.

You may be right. I took the exchange to mean that Oleg was privy to the real story but Arkady wasn't in a position to accept it; he can't afford to do anything but act as if the screw up was on his side. But on review, your interpretation may fit better. It still seems like a very elaborate hoax for the Americans to…

Anton knew about Echo. So unless they were casting a wide net, it's real.

Interesting. One small correction. The bats would be affected by the geometry of the plane, not the radar-absorbing surface materials.

I'm sure when Axl stumbled across the party, he only meant to stay for one quick beer and get right back to the search. :-)
