I'm in agreement, I thought the episode was great. Did y'all notice what we DIDN'T see tonight? No drinking. No Olivia with the new man! Yea! We
saw new stuff and it was interesting. The episode definitely had a different look and feel than the most recent ones.
Hate that Gough is gone though. |

I'm sorry but I thought it made NO sense that people who (simply) feared that they MIGHT die before the FF date would aggregate and subject themselves to
torture and even suicide to take care of the problem. There might be one or two such whackos, but a whole roomful of them, in one city? I call bullshit.
It's storyline bs like that, that is making this harder and harder to put up with.

I'm sad that we lost, in my opinion, one of the more interesting actors on the show, but at the same time, as others have said, this was easily the best
episode since the first couple.
The guy from BSG is an interesting actor himself, and I'm glad to see him on the show. Noh's fiance seems like she's on a different show. The british guy who wasn't a hobbit also continues to make me roll my eyes every time he's on screen. |

I could actually see killing myself to avoid a bad flashforward more than I could see killing myself because I didn't have one.
I'd totally try to fuck up even a boring flash forward. If I had brown carpet in my FF, I'd order red carpet. |

I'm enjoying the show, but most sane people would be able to change their destiny if they want to.
If I was the lead FBI guy, I'd have Juliet's new boyfriend killed, problem solved. And wouldn't ALL airlines not fly planes on the day they know the FF are going to happen to avoid everyone dying that way? |

um dumbass, people died on planes the day they were HAVING the flash forward because nobody was looking to see where the planes were flying.

The lady with twins - her future has changed since Gough won't be involved. The phone call to Gough won't happen. Al of course made a major change  but I wonder if the minor changes will just twist around somehow so the
future outcome is the same. (twins lady will still die, Fiona will have that meeting with someone else, bird will fly into another window)
I find it totally believable that a group of people who had no flash forward (Ghosts) would band together and do crazy shit. The leader seems very influential and there are a lot of weak/dark people out there who would lose hope. Demetri is struggling with this but he has a support system. There are plenty of people who have no support and possibly had bleak futures to begin with. |

Is anyone else questioning the reasoning for entrance game to enter the Ghost den of inequity?
 I can understand people who think they are
going to die just going nuts but the whole point is to go nuts while living in the moment. Wouldn't people who have flashforwards KNOW they are going to be
alive more likely to pull the trigger than someone who doesn't have one and has no idea what will happen to them and how they will die? The whole logic
does not make any sense.

The whole logic does not make any sense.No. If I knew I would be alive next year, I would not be more inclined to jump off a roof. If I truly believed I was going to be dead, I don't know what I'd do or how I'd feel. It would depend on the quality of my life at that time. Apparently the Ghosts have lost hope so they don't give a rat's ass anymore. I get what you're saying - that those with no flashes don't really know what will happen so why not take a chance on seeing it through. My take is those people are so consumed with dying that they're incapable of thinking clearly or logically. If I thought my death would change the future for other people in a positive way, then maybe yes.. I'd be right up there with Gough. This episode made sense to me. My only bitch is they chose the wrong character to jump off a building. Who is Annabelle? Wasn't that the name on the bracelet Simon was looking at? HI GIRAFFE!! <3 |

Probably immediately after they figure we've all bought into the future being changeable. PS: Joseph Fiennes has given some good performances on other things. Wonder why he's so incredibly awful on this? Far more ticklish than if he'd just always been awful. |

I agree this was one of the better episodes. It is about time somebody challenged their FF although I was sad to see the character go. The blue hand group
stuff is annoying but I find the story of Aaron and his daughter well done.

Al Gough.
I mourn this hottie with all my being. I knew as soon as he smiled when he ate
that damned dirty rice, he was gonna end it.
On a side note, Zoe be tripping. |

Exactly. You're gonna die, brutha.
I hope they don't illustrate this point by killing off Celia anyway. I'd like Al's exit to remain as it is. |

"They are coming for you." The premise is sort of playing out like the Final Destination flicks isn't it.
