And here's a thing I just don't think I am remembering right - how much do Janet and Derek remember after being rebooted? I thought Janet didn't have any memories from her previous 800+ incarnations, just emotional leakage, but Derek seems to remember Mindy murdering him over and over again...
Honestly, you meet the most appalling sort of people....

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
Oh, yeah -- Derek helped Janet make all the neighbors for the current experiment; I remember thinking that there *has* to be some blowback from that. Like Derek's "people" aren't quite right and will start glitching. I hope they follow up on that.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I think Janet has all of her memories.

I wouldn't bet on Derek functioning exactly like Janet in any event. Wasn't his creation a completely unprecedented event that shouldn't have been possible?

That's a good point. I actually trust the show to keep track of this stuff, I'm just mildly bothered that I can't remember the details. Oh well. Maybe some rewatching will help with that.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I thought that Gen said that the last two can't be connected, that Shawn can't pull that anymore. Am I mis-remembering?
Also, Chidi and Simone are totally hooking up.
Interestingly, they now have 5 people who don't know what's up, not just 4.

Our wings are not tired.
They've given me a summer project of rewatching the season to detect clues. There were things I didn't pay much attention to that need to be revisited. In general I had been underwhelmed by the season, but feel it will be more interesting with a broader view. Tricky tricksters.

Oh, I think you're right.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Maybe, but it was Michael who told her that she was once married to Jason. She didn't originally remember it except subconciously. It's similar to Eleanor's memories of the previous reboots. She didn't have them until Michael showed them to her. The question is whether the way Michael showed them to her is the same as actually having experienced them, or more like just looking at old pictures of events.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Someone linked to a transcript. She didn't specifically say they couldn't do that anymore, but did say that it was dirty pool and that was why they got to erase Simone's memories. So, I would say it was strongly implied that there was to be no more of that particular brand of tomfoolery.
