Also, did they do some weird layering of Eddie McClintock’s voice into the dad’s? I kept thinking I was hearing Pete talking.

I thought so. It wasn’t in the IMDB yet.

He was listed in the opening credits, else I probably would not have recognized him.

When I saw Chekhov’s Price Gun early on, I had a suspicion that it was going to be the actual artifact. And when I saw the binoculars, I figured that they’d be linked to someone observing the Trinity test instead of to the _Enola Gay_.

Same here. They didn’t look particularly related… but when he spoke, he sounded just like Pete.

I thought it was kind of creepy.

I was warned by you guys in the thread, but when I watched it last night it seemed to me as though the actor was just trying to sound like Pete.

**Lute Skywatcher** , I assume this was intended as a joke, but it could easily be read as an unwarranted personal attack. I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt on it, but please avoid such “jokes” in the future.

Thanks,

I wouldn’t have recognized him as the dweeb from all those 80’s movies, but I certainly recognized him from The Dead Zone.

What did Claudia’s fortune say? I only caught “death”.

“Death comes for you tonight”, I think.

It’s time for the season finale already? Jeez, it seems like it just started! I don’t know, though, this season never felt like it really got off the ground for me. Something seems like it’s missing but I can’t put my finger on it.

I was so sure that I knew what the artifact would be early on. I thought it would be related to Scott’s doomed Antarctic expedition.

When Jinks rebuffed Claudia over the phone, it felt like he was working SO hard to be unpleasant that it reinforced my assumption that he was planted by the good guys as a double agent. Speaking of Claudia, it seems awfully late in the season for a new beau for her. I think they introduced him simply to add a little more weight when they kill him in two weeks.

Or he works for the Other Side. 🙂

Yeah, it did! Plus there was the way he kind of smiled and shook his head when she texted him later. I think it’s pretty obvious they’ve been setting him up to be contacted by the baddies; Mrs.Frederick and the Regents never struck me as the types to systematically destroy an ex-employees life, even if he did pull a gun on one of them.

Add to that the fact that they not only fired him, but burned his credit rating and job prospects. that was way overkill.

Did it strike anyone else as odd that the guy recruiting Jinx tried to garner sympathy for thier cause with Jinx by saying how horrible the Regents were for torturing Stukowski. Jinx is a guy who \*knows \*that they colapsed a building, after they burned a Regent alive with an artifact and had killed three others and this guy is trying to take some sort of moral high ground about Mrs. Fredricks resorting to torture in an emergency?

2 hour season finale tonight. I dunno, to me it never really felt like this season got off the ground, which was kind of disappointing because it’s one of only three shows I watch regularly and if it continues to suck next year I’ll be down to two.
