3/10
a mixed bag for me

Meh, this is kind of a mixed bag for me.

there are some high points, and some very low ones. For starters, I really liked the acting of Zeljko Ivanek. He was convincing. I also really like the death scenes, the liquid nitrogen death especially. So cool when he stepped on that ear and you heard a crunching sound.

but then we got some poor writing, and the twin, brain-connected-thing just didn't work. also, scientists.... bore/ My biggest complaint is that it's the second-to-last episode. You'd expect better.

A fairly forgettable episode, and one of my least favorites of Season 1. I'm still giving it TWO stars as it's definitely watchable.
