I think they were both way out of line. Just one showed it with yelling and the other with manipulation. Jeff should not have yelled at her like he did, but it was clear Jenni tried to take advantage of that with the whole "poor me he's so mean" act. What I find REALLY mean is claiming your "best friend" held you back from achieving your dreams. I'd be just as pissed as Jeff too if I was told that. I remember in the early seasons when he accommodated her auditions (yes, grumpily, but what do you expect? The gall of a boss expecting his employee to show up to work! And even still he was generous enough to let her miss work at the last minute. Many times. For seemingly little success). They've had many talks over the years about how he wants to support her dreams but he still needs an executive assistant. She wanted to have her cake and eat it too. Her story about the Nic Cage movie was a desperate attempt to win the argument. He was right, but he was being mean, so she twisted the story so she could play martyr instead. And the lunch?? Really?! After telling your boss and best friend that he ruined your chance to achieve your dreams, you think that means 'oh well guess I'll keep working for you?' You just put up a giant shit fit over working for him. What other conclusion could Jeff possibly come to?

The two other shows I've seen her in she acts exactly the same. She's a bland actress.

Why can't Jenkins be the one tethered to the library? Who was tethered with who when it was just Flynn as the librarian? Was Ms. Noone, Flynn's old guardian, tethered? But she wasnt right, cuz she had to go around the rules to become immortal (the first time) and they've made it clear Eve has had to think hard about becoming immortal when she is tethered. So then who was tethered then if not Flynn and his old guardian? And since Flynn and Ms. Noone weren't tethered, that means there is no rule that it must be a librarian + guardian tethered. But they are not looking at any other options other than that. I'm confused.

So what happened to the two younger agents, the wannabe Fox and Dana replacements? I wasn't entirely on board with them last season, but I thought it was pretty obvious the show was setting them up to ultimately take over the roles. Now I'm hearing reports that Gillian is not doing anymore X-Files and the creator of the show is not planning another season?? Am I getting this right? Were the two younger actors really that disliked that they wouldn't continue the show with them instead?

So, their baby is super sensitive to noise during nap time (or anytime really it seems). So let's move her into the house first and then move everything else in while she's sleeping. Great plan! I hope that was just dumb drama played up for the show. Why not pack her room last and leave the nanny there to watch her while they move?? I thought a major lesson they learned is that they can't work or remodel while she is in the house, so they are moving, but really they are just repeating the problem in a new location.

Was this the first time the opening credits showed a location that the episode didn't visit? They showed the citadel but Sam was long gone...

Huh, for some reason I was under the impression the show explained Helena's hair a long time ago with a throwaway line about malnutrition. Although I did wonder why it never became healthy once she was living with Allison. I fanwanked permanent damage from years of poor health. Regular bleaching just doesn't work for me.

I mean we have androids that can be human, faster than light travel, heck a blink drive, and people's minds loaded into a computer...yeah, I'm not seeing how putting a mind into an android is that hard in this world. "Dumb" androids are for sale and if there was a moral issue I'm sure they could find a shell of one. And who says it has to look like sarah? Edit: Haha just realized I'm disagreeing with the creator :) oh well I still want it to be possible! !

Sooo originally I thought when Android held a gun to sleeping Three's head, she was being controlled by Ryo. Because remember there was a scene with Three worrying about why Four was avoiding him after Four got his memories back? He seemed to believe Ryo knew something very bad about Three. Bad enough to kill him? But now I believe it was Sarah. I think she was contemplating having him join her forever in computer-world, and she knew he would never do that while still living. She probably has access to his stored consciousness right? Or am I misremembering, because I believe there was a line in this episode where Two says all their stored consciousness's were deleted--which I dont remember when that happened. Anyway, I think Sarah found the security loophole just like Ryo's henchman did, knew Android would create defenses, so when Android was vulnerable she "helped" by getting that security key from Android/Five to take over Android's body. Who knows what else she did when "locking out" the henchman? She could have set herself up with her own loophole.... I mean from day 1 of realizing Sarah's mind was in the computer, I've wondered why no one bothered to think they could download her into an android. The technology seems to be there, why is everyone ok letting her live in computer isolation?

Agree with what a lot of people said: I was mostly confused the entire episode waiting for an explanation on the bugs. All the characters seemed to be "ok whatever!" and not one wondered where the bugs came from, why they decided to help this guy's mom and not just eat everything in sight, how they seemed to act independently but then somehow mom controls them? And now the house is gone--but are the bugs? The Doctor is always the most curious, and not even he cared!! I'm also in the camp that finds Bill ...out of place. Something about her character/performance bugs me. I can take a happy-go-lucky attitude, but something about how she acts throws me off. Can't put my finger on it. I've only been watching Doctor Who since Matt Smith so I'm very uneducated, but I REALLY wish just one time there was a companion that felt it was prudent to listen to the Doctor. Especially in the very beginning of their companionship where they have little knowledge of this time-traveling-and-aliens-exist concept. WHY do they always act like they know better when they are running around with a TIME TRAVELER?!?! It's bad writing for drama to occur only because someone likes to act stupid. I was hoping those people from decades ago appeared too.

I love how Minnick walked in to the middle of brain surgery to yell at the surgeons and even said "you have to stop right now and talk to me." Uhhh...they're busy? I find it very annoying that Arizona has to date every single lesbian. Even one that insults her friends and her teaching skills. I wish they would have written in Camilla's pregnancy. Maybe it wasn't possible, but I would have loved to see Alex deal with his upbringing and anger issues; in the end we all know he would be a great dad. And there could still be drama with Jo's husband and her issues. I usually hate pregnancy story lines but this one I would appreciate for Alex's character.

I think I've come to terms with why I'm on Rinna/Eileen/Erika's side of the couch. First let me say that that side of the couch is VERY bad at getting their point across and they have behaved poorly as well. But what I see is this: The left side of the couch wants to argue about implied/inferred statements The right side of the couch wants to argue semantics/literal statements And I'm on the read-between-the-fking-lines of that argument (come on LVP! youre better than this). That's why I think the left side of the couch keeps interrupting, and asking questions but not waiting for the complete answer--because as soon as the right side starts responding with semantics, the left side of the couch is frustrated because they know they are dodging the real issue (the implied statements). Everything I've seen of Dorit and pantygate, she was pretending to be an "innocent" gossip to spark reactions from others, but when confronted (and alone with PK), it was obvious she was implying Erika did it on purpose ("why would she do that? As a lady, why would she not cross her legs? Sitting in front of my red-blooded husband?" <--that's supposed to be innocent questions?!). "Her behavior was induced" -- totally implying it was drug-induced, and not in an innocent "oh she needs to be careful with pills," but obviously "oh she must have a problem." The whole "Erika said she was over it" is again too literal. Tons of people say that to move on, doesn't mean they are now besties forever. She can be over arguing about it, but not over the implication of it all, especially when it's dragged up repeatedly and Dorit starts using statements to make clear the act was meant to be much more judgmental than initially confessed. And that leads me to a big issue. Good polite people have NO RIGHT to SHAME someone for what they perceive to be "cold." Oh, so Erika is cold? Ok then, don't be best friends. People can have other personalities and there is nothing wrong with that. People can not take your joke, so what move on. I realize this all gets muddied up because Eileen and Rinna kept bring it up, and who knows what would have gone down if no one ever mentioned it after the first time. But Dorit, criticizing Erika for not being excessively nice to you, especially after what you did, and then having your husband join to repeatedly shame her for not kissing your feet every chance she gets, is so pathetic and self-centered. It also shows *gasp* reading-between-the-lines, that you are upset that someone thinks you're mean. As if being a judgmental bitch is somehow awesome? I would totally believe Dorit's whole innocence act if, at any point when she perceived Erika as "cold," she would have said "Hey, I'm sorry I wasn't trying to be mean." Instead every chance she got it came out as "Hey, can't you take a joke? I can be mean because I dont like you. You deserve to be shamed because you don't act like me."

This is like the time when Kyle and Kim pretended not to know what crack was, during that infamous game night with Brandi. And they went on and on acting like they had nooooo ideaaaaaa what drugs are called. *eye roll* While I'd like to think Dorit and company are not stupid enough to snort cocaine when there are cameras around and a loudmouth like Rinna, it wouldn't shock me in the least if they did drugs.

Don't kill my son. I know he's been raping and murdering people for...decades, all because of me abandoning him, and I'm only appearing now because he might die, but I'll totally take care of it, ok? *eye roll* Julia getting her shade back felt more like paying off a bribe than a thank you.

As soon as they said zombie island, my mind went straight to all the tv shows and movies where the revelation is "this quarantine isn't to protect us, but to bring us all together so they can blow us up!" I hope the show won't take this obvious route. If they really were this awesome super secret govt group, then they'd know they need to...recruit...people high up in all branches of govt (although who am I kidding, that didn't work so well for HYDRA).
