I'm disappointed that I didn't catch the clue dropped about Linda—she asked if there was a fitness center.
At first I thought she was there to annoy Janet. Linda's outfit reminded me of Janet's uniform and her lack of desire for things seemed opposite.
I felt so bad for Eleanor when Chidi forgot her name. I am not worried about the will they/won't they since it's the last season. So I can relax and just watch this unfold.
she asked if there was a fitness center.
Ha! Good catch
Does anyone else think Janet might be Bad Place Janet? Like maybe there was a switcheroo when the train came during episode 4.1 (I think; I remember thinking there could have been a switcheroo in the season premiere at some point.)
I was mostly fine with her telling Jason, "Not now, because I have too much going on," but when she told him about Bortles, I couldn't help but wonder if she did so to demoralize him.
Also, she seemed to participate a little too much when Tahani was questioning Eleanor's leadership.
I realize this could all be part of Janet's evolution, but it just gave me pause.
It did seem weird for Janet to volunteer that information, when there was no need for Jason to know anything about what was happening back on Earth. Can Bad Janets tone down their hostility enough to pass for a Good Janet who's stressed out and not being chipper?
After the talks with Jason and Eleanor I think we can safely rule out Michael having been replaced, though.

Yeah, I don't know. I mean after a lot of false starts, Good Janet fooled everyone in the Bad Place at the end of season two, so maybe?

That was my feeling too, Matt.
Okay, after last night's episode, I feel like either Janet has become human, or there was certainly a switcheroo. She was blatantly feeding bad ideas to Tahani.
Also, since when has Michael been able to do stuff like shatter vases with a wave of the hand? That's new, right?
I don't think you have to whitefont, Cindy.
It's not a real vase, after all. Remember the Trolley Problem? He can do some stuff in the neighborhood.
I think Janet being the most advanced Janet ever after her umpteen gazillion reboots just has some downsides. I can't see Bad Janet having the self control to masquerade as our Janet for so long. She does seem to be heading for some kind of breakdown or explosion, though.
Jason's "Not again" made me laugh and laugh. It was so like the Hitchhiker's Guide petunias!
I was surprised Jason didn't accidentally let on to Chidi what was going on.
Tahani always surprises me with how much she has changed.
