Why did you think not?
Don't remember!
Yeah, I have the same questions about this episode. Especially the time frame.
Simon: You're out of your mind. Early: That's between me and my mind.

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

How could so much of it appear to be on Tess's first day if Zane needs to apologise to Taggart for his behaviour of weeks?
I thought that Zane was in the Arctic with Taggart, getting the ice core, and had been for several weeks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Aha! So that's where his month had been. Thanks.
Now I just have a basic distrust that all of that (including the solution) could have happened in one day, but that's much more manageable.

I thought Zane was off on the retrieval trip with Taggert - the truck to bring the core was his doing.
Totally spacing on the "forgetting episode". Irony indeed!
Nice to have Taggert back, but I seriously wish they'd try and explain away his awful "Australian" accent. I guess I need to handwave like the science?
Congrats, Joe Morton, on directing the episode, though.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I thought Allison was just on maternity leave, as in fer reals.
That's a good question about the freezing, ita. But then again, everyone in GE seems to be alive. I guess the ish was access to a warm coat?

Oddly, there were those metallic emergency blankets at Cafe Diem. Or really large and flexible sheets of foil.
I'm going to try and not think about the science. Because if memory serves it was fungus that made ice grow more. And that's a bit....huh. I'm just impressed that the rampant ice growth completely failed to touch the core and mess it up. And impressed that the truck that brought it never had to turn any corners.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
never think about the science on eureka. DH isn't allowed to watch unless he has practiced his handwavium

Poochie was gone for 4 weeks and they chose to set NO epsiodes during that time? Oh, the humanity!
The ice-producing fungus reveal was where I cut my losses. Not even for Taggart's return, producers.
