"I've been waiting my whole life for someone to say that." I loved her husky voice and the look on her face.

Anyone else think that the fixer's primary goal in laying off all those people was to get at those tapes in the museum without any interference? 'Cause getting rid of just the museum curator might raise some eyebrows, given it's a relatively unimportant position in the overall scheme of the town's workings. But make the axing of the one person you really want to get rid of one of many firings happening at the same time, and no one even thinks twice.

Um. I do not thing science works the way you guys are describing. ;D But I'm gonna just do my usual "la la la" fingers in ears thing and just keep enjoying. Henry!! Yays!! I swear, every time they said "de-evolution" I could hear Rachael's brain exploding. You all know me so well. Atavism? Really? Come ON. If you're gonna steal plot devices from Star Trek, there are way better.... Also? Lola's right; none of the science works the way they said it did. Except the part where "free radicals increase mutation rate". But even if you could ingest free radicals they way they said, even if you could create them in water (incidentally, all the water you drink every single day is "ionized") with "mutagenic light wavelengths" (which, those of you who wear sunscreen know, the sun makes all the time)...the end result would be what you get when you don't wear sunscreen: cancer. Not snake-people. And they were doing so well up to that point, with the Mars biodome story....

This is where having only a little science knowledge goes a long way towards an easy and happy suspension of disbelief.

This is where having only a little science knowledge goes a long way towards an easy and happy suspension of disbelief. I completely let all that go by (knew it couldn't be right but it was so obviously over the top that I ignored it), but wondered how the hologram of Henry could be walking all over the place while the real Henry was confined. Was he actually speaking with the real Henry in realtime?

Pressure can make diamonds. Yeah, that's a kinda scary metaphor actually. I mean, when you really think about it. Artificial doggies!! Heavily armed mechanical dog soldiers - that would be cool! ;D Oh, Jo, never change. At least she didn't suggest that they shoot lasers from their eyes. "Did Fifi make a mess on the grass?" OMG!! OK, that was funny. Extremely bitchy, but funny. Hmmmmm. She has a "task" for Henry. I was sorta expecting that. Supercolonies of mucus? Ugh and ick and ewwwwww! And I think Buffy and crew would agree with my mucus opinions.
