Yep. I too suspected when Zane was fading in and out and seemed to see hospital-style lights over him. But Carter & Jo was the definite proof - no way would the writers have gone there for reals.
Slay-er? Chosen One. She who hangs out a lot in cemeteries? You're kidding. Ask around. Look it up: Slayer comma The.

Yay, Eureka's back!
I was not prepared for it to be so owie, but I'm stoked for everything in the "this season on..." And they totally got me with that reveal - I was expecting something, but somehow not that. And not so many subjects! I look forward to the explanation of what's going on.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I don't think so (meaning: I think they did save her) -- I think they hijacked the Astraeus and hooked up the crew using the same tech they used on her.
So it was just the Astraeus crew that she had? I thought she had everyone, but I'm probably wrong.

There were a BUNCH of people in the chairs. Probably not the whole town, though?

Did they have Jack?

I think the Astraeus crew is bigger than it appeared to us during the lead-up to the mission, because they focused just on the main characters. That's my take, anyway. I was a little surprised by the number of people they had hooked up at the end there.

The only individual I'm sure they have is Allison.
You could be right, Jen. I think we were told a number at some point last season, but I forgot what it was.

I think I vaguely recall ten or twelve -- there was a group picture at some point?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
This "things not being real" has the added benefit of being able to explain away huge plot holes. For example, wasn't it the DoD who put the Andys in charge? Why would they allow Fargo and his Insurrectionists (good name for a band!) to take over? Oh, wait! It's not real! See how convenient that is?

DoD probably not that big on allowing AIs to stay in control by brainwashing people either. I'm sure at least a few people in the Pentagon still live in the 1950s when the threat of robot takeovers were a known risk.
