S02.E08: Slouching Towards Bethlehem


Recommended Posts

We saw evidence last season of people masquerading as convincing doubles of human beings, if I remember right, and we had those scenes earlier this season of Pottinger spying on Amanda and using that creepy thing to access her memories, so I think they laid some groundwork for Kenya to be a double. I feel like one of the doubles in the first season, maybe the astronaut, wasn't aware that he was a copy, so Kenya's actions in the last episode might still make sense in light of that. Either way, my money is on Pottinger as the man behind the mask.

For my part, if it's not Kenya but something like a clone, it means a hidden plot has been taking place for months. I don't like that kind of withholding by writers, it feels to me like big time cheating.

You're talking about a show that has a huge backstory we never heard about, & that you had to go to Wikipedia to get the information. I don't think they would have any trouble witholding a hidden plot.

Oh my, they have a huge backstory that hasn't had much to with the TV series? Maybe that's good gaming but I really don't get it for a TV show.

Check it out, scroll down to Setting. There's a ton of story that we never heard about. I know last season on TWoP I complained about this a lot, & some people said that the show would probably put the information on the show over time, but we're almost half way through season 2, & they haven't given us any of it on the show. At a certain point it stops being new information, & becomes a retcon.
