I loved seeing the kid get a win. He looked so clear at the dinner table, and not at all like he was frustrated by feeling nobody knew how special he is. Maybe being without Sahar is going okay for him after all.

Overall, I'm really enjoying this season and I thought this episode was great-- both funny and serious.

The "bird" running into the window had me laughing so hard I scared my dog.

Why did she use the "Good" banana!

[meep.meep]

wasn't it the only banana?

I used to be that way about bananas.

I think Harry said it was the best banana-- the perfect amount of ripeness.

I am by no means a scientist but before watching this show, I had a vague notion that if Yellowstone blows its top, the earth might be in for a difficult time. I'm not sure why the General and Harry and all those military people are having a hard time figuring that out. "What does it mean for the Greys?" is not really more important than stopping them from doing it in the first place.

Max looks visibly older in this episode. For a minute there I was wondering if he had been recast. I also liked his moment at the table when his mom dismisses his alien abduction theory.

Have we established before that Max is able to see various aliens and not just Harry's species? It seems he can't see Grey hybrids though.

I think Harry's love interest is going to turn out to be one of the baddies.

It does seem unethical to be romancing the being you're tasked with enforcing a court order on.

I don't think I've ever laughed so hard as I did at "my knees!" and Harry falling down.  The first time was so unexpected, and the repetitions equally giggly.

I'm like that.

Lots of physical comedy in this one, mostly from Harry.  Different but not unwelcome.  I thought the plotline with Heather was fun.  Harry's never been twitterpated before, and it hit him hard.

I mentioned a few episodes back that I finally realized that Harry isn't an idiot; he's just immature, which is a bit dangerous when combined with naivete.  But in his interactions and Joseph, and now Heather, we see that that appears to be a pattern.  The aliens make be stronger, or more advanced technologically, but it's balanced by them having grade school mentality, junior high at best.  Harry and Joseph verbally sparred at that level, before Joseph left Harry's cabin last episode.  This episode, I was cracking up when Harry was writing "Do you like me?" notes to Heather, and even using his friend to ferry the note.  And Heather didn't act indignant, like she couldn't believe how dumb it all was.  She was touched, though she did try to hide it.
