Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Why does Global not have a Files And Records?
Har. I thought the same thing. But then, Files and Records probably would have been down during the reboot.

Quick jump to the end - thank goodness for askye's post upstream about the midnight re-run; I thought I was sunk - is anyone around who could give me a quick recap of the first few minutes of Eureka tonight - just the part before the show intro.? I'm sure I can catch up without it, but...

Hey, it's the Colonel who got blowed up in SG-1! A.k.a the pilot from BSG!
Aw. Poor Jack. Totally smacked down by Allison.
Is Beverly trying to recruit Henry? Kinda seems like it.

Fargo is polishing up his desk, getting ready for the new boss, Allison. An annoying smarmy guy tells Fargo that he should have Fargo's job. Various military types show up to oversee the transfer from Stark to Allison. It's kind of like "Branded," in that he's stripped of his boss computer access and it's transferred to Allison. This is when we find out that her passwood is 8675309, which has hopelessly earwormed me. Because of the transfer of power and the explosion and assorted handwaving, they're shutting down the computer system for 8 hours.
Fargo goes into the bathroom. He finds a shiny silver thing in his coat pocket and, instead of thinking, "Why the hell is this thing in my pocket," he turns it on. It turns out to be a forcefield that he can't turn off.
Stark gives Allison a cool nameplate and tells her that he's glad to be out of the job. Fool that she is, she says, "Was it really that bad?" and then the retired and rejected projects inventory guy calls to say that a code red device is missing.
Also, OMG I love this show.

Ginger, thank you for the most excellent recap.
Oh, poor Fargo! He's so skeered. Oh, and he has to pee. Poor noodle.
ETA: Oh, and sumi, I bow to your powers of recall.
ETAA: Ha! The fake PSA is awesome! "Live smart, Eureaka."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
since I was too busy thinking "Why are they showing everyone her password?"
That's why I caught it.

I noticed the last few numbers were 75309, and thought "no! they didn't. And I rewound and was very amused. I meant to check Stark's to see if it had some significance, but the Buffistas saved me the trouble.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I want to have that guy's babies! Stark's, I mean.
I just noticed the 66 on the end of Stark's and thought it was a birthdate. I aim so low...
If this season keeps up with the relationships and their shifts, I'll be a happy girl. I believe in Jack pining after Allison and Nathan making moves way more than I bought the idea of Jack and Allison together (and Nathan pissy). That dynamic I'm sold on.
I admit, I kinda wanted Fargo to stay dead--not because he's not enjoyable. Just because I was missing high stakes TV. But this? Quite probably not that show.

Oh! Anyone watched Jekyll with ColdFeet/Murphy'sLaw!Nesbitt? My friend who just mainlined Life On Mars and is starting Dr. Who 2005 wants to have Stephen Moffat's love children because of it. I've obtaine the first four eps, and just need to block time out to watch.
