He should walk to St. Louis. I hear it's really fun over there ever since the Votans arrived.

I actually thought their plans for Season 2 sounded really boring. Taylor goes crazy? Boring! New dinosaurs? Boring! That's all they had planned? Boring!

Corpse Anne exists in Tom's mind, and for as long as that remains true, she will never be truly gone. She is in each of us … along with her dead baby.

Yep, this season has had its weird tradeoffs. On the one hand, they added a whole new alien race. Unfortunately, that came at the cost of reduced screen time for all aliens altogether. The Espheni Overlords are completely out of the picture just to fund Cochise's appearances.

You know people discuss Continuum on the Monday edition of "What's On Tonight"? You should jump in!

No, if you walk a mile out of Charleston all you get is a dead woman that you bury after fabricating an entire life story for her. Then you slowly trot your bored horses back to Charleston 'cause it's boring out in the boring daylight. The only time you get extended adventures just outside Charleston is when more

That's gross. I can imagine Tom thinking, "I bet I can steal away Hal's girlfriend. She's into me; I know it. I'm just that hot."

@avclub-75e2e3139fa0d929d8852e23594c1238:disqus O RLY? I guess I must have missed that. Maybe I should hunt down that scene and see what else I missed.

@Kumagoro:disqus Is the cat really Karen in this illusion? I bet it's like a deep metaphor.

Are you saying that you wanted to see Tom have necro sex with corpse Anne? …I'm sorry I wasn't clear about what you were trying to say past the "F is for fucking" bit. I did, however, get that you are deeply in love with this episode.

She keeps capturing and letting escape the same guy over and over again.

The dream pistol he shot Karen with was handed to him by one of his dream kids, I think. The pistol he aimed at the cat was … something he picked up along his improbable walk past his old house. Or maybe Karen handed it to him as she lovingly waved him off following his plunge from the tower. "I'm not gonna bother

I'm gonna hand wave that as cities connected by functional railroad. Since the Volm weapon needs to be positioned via rail (apparently), those four towers might just be on the last surviving connections to Charleston. However, that then brings up the question of why Karen doesn't just bomb those rail tracks and be

I thought Maggie was put in there as an extension of Hal, just as Weaver's daughter was put in there as an extension of Weaver. I can't otherwise explain why both characters would even be of any prominence in Tom's fabricated world. The other characters were inserted to show his subliminal awareness of deception

I didn't see your post before I decided to type out an identical sentiment up thread. I'm hoping Tom is still in the illusion harness, just to explain the implausibility of that scene (and why nothing substantial happened in this episode—minus the 20-sec Grid powering up scene).

Perhaps Karen intended for Tom to successfully escape. She didn't even chase him down. The escape might be yet another illusion playing out in Tom's head.

I was hoping for that as well, and his hallucination of his wife in their ruined house helped that thought along. Also, for some reason, he wandered past his ruined house of all places. A house with a broken window that didn't allow dust, moisture, and animal droppings to collect on the bed he laid on, LOL!

Thanks, Les. It was a minor thing, but it did make my brain itch each time I spotted it. It was like seeing someone write, "Your to funny!"

Exactly! She's apparently spearheading the efforts against the Volm and Human-Skitter resistance by herself, but the show has reduced her to the capacity of an assistant rather than a full-blown Overlord. She's lesser now than she was towards the end of last season. Her overall strategy apparently was to slow down
