didn't Henry "remember" that the device he'd invented didn't work?
No, you see, it didn't work at first, but then Jason happened to be around when Henry figured it out. They quickly built the device (in under 20 minutes!), and then Jason grabbed the device and used it on Henry. Since humans are incapable of figuring out something more than once, Henry never again was able to figure out how to make the device work and he moved on.
Makes perfect sense.
Henry strikes me as the kind of guy who invents stuff because he can not because he should. He'll have a theory, see if he can prove it, and not think about the consequences. That's why he lives in Eureka.
I totally agree. It makes him cute.
Since humans are incapable of figuring out something more than once, Henry never again was able to figure out how to make the device work and he moved on.
or, Jason zapped him so many times that he eventually got frustrated and gave up/moved on to another idea.
I think that Jason zapped him and he forgot that he was even thinking about it.
I don't think that Jason has the knowledge to build it, even if he stole the originial idea from Henry. Remember, he couldn't solve the equation, even "knowing" the answer.
My take on that is that 20 years of using the memory device to cheat has made him intellectually lazy, so he would have been able to build it based on Henry's original designs, even if he couldn't do it now.
I think you play to your strengths. If you cheat and steal to keep control over your life, then that's your go to. I don't think you bother to figure much out beyond that.
We lost a couple of scenes for time. I would have liked to see them back. Just because they were slower scenes and it gave a bit of breathing room.
But you get no points for making a great 47 minute show.
What were the lost scenes? (I hate knowing there are lost scenes. I always want to see them.)
My next step is to ask ita for a million bucks, right?
YOu know, when you suddenly see "we" in a show-thread (or a de facto show-thread), you do that "is this somebody with no self-other separation?" moment.
And then you read the user name. Hi, and welcome aboard.
