Uh huh. Saw that coming ...

I would like a few answers though before I go all "X-Files/Lost" and quit giving a shit because of the non-stop introduction of new mysteries with no conclusions. Still good and sticking with it.

Still watching but probably wouldnt care if they never restored communications and their resupply was cut off. Could be interesting to see which would be the last survivor after they turned to cannibalism.

This show is slow with little that is interesting or engaging. Hard to believe Ron Moore has something to do with this.
I removed it from My TiVo list last night.

Dont forget he also helmed Caprica. So there is a precedent of him producing unwatchable dreck.

I'm liking this show. And after this episode I can see how they can have more seasons of this.

I just saw this last night. I don't know what Riley Dude or Thrush are smoking, but it was a solid episode. I'm enjoying the Full day representing 1 episode storytelling.

Some quite scary scenes with the infected. Was surprised they killed off Doreen. Obviously there is a much bigger conspiracy going on with the facility. Balleseros has already murdered 2 people.

Loved Hiroyuki Sanada's character. Hatake is a really cool and mysterious villain.

Sarah having brain cancer seems a little out there though. I can't imagine someone with her condition being able to function working at the CDC. Not only would she experience the tremors, but would probably have constant headaches and maybe some seizures. I don't think it was necessary to make her sick.

Prediction: Either the cancer will make her immune to the virus OR the virus will cure her cancer.
