FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUU....
Helluva cliffhanger. Can we just call Artie "Batman" now and be done with it. Prediction: he rewinds time to before Claudia gets the impetus to go all vengencey and stops everything before it happens.
Also...AMH plays an awesome bad guy. Also also...the metronome...did not see that one coming...
Awwwwwwww. I liked Jinks 
Also, is it just me, or do the WH13 writers really like ending their seasons with explosions?
Goodbye, I guess.

Bets on Jinx returning? After all, Claudia did say the metronome was for him. And really, if she had the choice between him and *spoiler*, then who do you think she would choose?

Did like the bit about "too young to have seen Fraiser/Ali".
And I'm definitely seeing a time travel reset button coming up. But I think we have seen the last of H.G. Wells, and glad she got the moments of glory she deserved.

Yes I feel bad that Jinx is dead, yes I feel bad that Mrs. Fredrick is dead, yes I feel bad the warehouse is blown up, but I feel really bad about the dog.

My first thought about the explosion was about how the dog would no longer be in the show even though he was only in just small bits. With Mrs. Frederic gone, does this mean that Claudia takes over like they almost had her do last season?

Every time I see Myka and Helena on-screen, it looks (to me) like Myka has a serious girl-crush on Helena. Heck, the slash practically writes itself.
I even forgot to mention the Pete-Cave. Figures that he'd have his own little hideout in there. Complete with Claudia-stocked cream soda!

I really enjoyed the first half of the episode (up until finding Jinx). The music and such leading up to finding Jinx was very well done, and so was the acting After that, it almost seemed like a different writer took hold of the show. Parts seemed rushed and otherwise boring.
My main gripe about this show is that stupid body control horse whippy thingy. Ugh. It was so over used that it made me angry. Ok, not angry, but I openly said 'ugh' outloud quite often).
It will be interesting to see how Artie proceeds with the watch and what Claudia plans to do.
What does everyone think of Claudia's destiny? It's been hinted at a few times in the past, including this episode.
It felt like two different episodes because it was.
Wow that was awesome.

Really? There weren't two opening credits/closing credits and it was time slotted as one long episode. I guess they must have decided to run them together.

Yes I'm wondering how far back Artie can reset time with that watch. I don't think he can rewind time past the point he collected it. But I'm not certain how far back he can turn it. I'm wondering why they didn't put the bomb in that little shielded bubble.
I'll say this that was a far better end for HG if they go with it than just being Janused.

YES! That was the other thing I forgot this morning. When the episode was done my wife looked over at me and said, "Um, why didnt they just place the bomb on the wrong in that one spot where she made the new barrier?"|

I didn't really have a good explanation.

Yep, it was two separate episodes, just strung together. Part 1 was called "Emily Lake", directed by Millicent Shelton and written by Nell Scovell & Ian Stokes. Part 2 was called "Stand", directed by Stephen Surjik and written by Andrew Kreisberg & Drew Z. Greenberg.

She wanted to end her long and frustrating life and she also wanted the warehouse destroyed so it would stop turning good people bad.

I didn't really have a good explanation. I agree. |

Ok, that is a plausible explanation. Thank you Mr. Klaw.

That's just it though...destroying the warehouse does not stop artifacts from being created and/or existing. All it does is destroy the one place that they could (nominally) be kept safe. It is also destroying a significant chunk of human history.|

As big of a fan of lit. as Helena was, I couldn't really see her destroying that much of humanity's history. Even if the artifacts could be used for nefarious purposes, they represent a link to our collective past.

Totally. I'm glad I'm not the only one who got the girl-crush vibe. As soon as Myka got stuck in the ropes too, my mind was chanting 'kiss her' over and over again. lol.

Given the phrasing and warehouse physics, it is possible that the inside of that little bubble would be "outside" the main bubble. As such, putting the bomb in the little bubble would protect the Warehouse, but flatten the rest of the state.

Or it wouldn't be able to contain that much explosion in that small of a space. Allowing the bomb to explode lets it basically just wash over the bubble of non-explodey space rather than trying to bottle it up.

Oh Myka...you'd think by now in your life you'd know not to drag a guy into a fight/argument you are having with his mother. That's just not cool putting a guy on the line like that. Either way he answers he's going to lose...
Am I crazy or does that hacker kid working for Sykes look like he could be AMH's kid?
