Tep, the burned part comes in with the fact that it seemed like there was this very cool, overreaching arc being built...and it all kind of fizzled into a hand wave hand wave thing that made many of us suspect that they never really had a clue where they were going with it in the first place.
Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

42. Some important number in numerology?
It's the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything.

Sean and I are obviously HGTTG junkies. I can't even see the number 42 without instantly thinking that.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
and then didn't they just give it up this season, no more references, nothing more doing?
They were, but they reneged. He's back. (But thankfully in such a way that Sydney is as sick of him as the audience is, and not shy about making it known.)

There have been Rambaldi references in the past couple of weeks. . . but then they've also brought back Sark and Anna Espinoza.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
42 is also the number of Mulder's apartment. Which was, itself, an HGTTG shout out, I believe. But still, there could be layers. I expect if they were trying for an X-Files reference they'd work 1013 in there somewhere instead.

I'm just quietly fearful that all the very cool interweaving subplots and mysterious might go that path, which would be a tragedy.
ETA: Oops! Sorry Jess, I didn't see that!
