He was in a MEETING.
Oh my god, I'm 12, because that scene (particularly his pause before "...a meeting") made me do my loud donkey laugh.
Lydia: Its removal from Burma is a felony and when triggered it has the power to melt human eyeballs.
Giles: In that case I've severely underpriced it.

I hope we get more of that. I was expecting that to happen with Olivia's too. I want people to lie about what they saw. It could be fun.

Maybe there will be some running gag where every episode, John Cho ALMOST dies. And every episode he exclaims, "Yeah! I'm not gonna die!" Next week: a piano almost falls on his head.

They sold the premise well enough that the security footage at the end creeped me out the way a just-off-kilter-from-realistic nightmare will creep me out.
My dvr cut off just when Cho comes over to watch. What's on it?

There's a stadium in Detroit where a man is up and walking when the rest of the world is blacked out. The episode's on Hulu if you want to see the footage for yourself.

Thanks! Do you know if they only repeated the pilot, or are they always going to re-run on Friday?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
FF: Saw it. Liked it. And yeah, when footage of a guy walking around is creepy, you know they sold the premise. (Might have been a woman. Had long hair. I think.)
