I thought he left in order to lead in the troops. Which makes it even more confusing. And that she was punishing topher while also hindering resurrection of Caroline.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I skipped a few episodes (because not my show) but watched last night. One thing confused me: what was Boyd saying to Caroline in the big reveal scene? My memory was it was something about needing her in the doll house but that he'd take care of her because she's too special to risk, and that she could trust her life with him. Am I misremembering? Because otherwise I can't make sense of it.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Well that last bit was just the callback (call forward?) to the handler/imprint trigger phrase.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
in the io9 interview with Tim, a commenter mentioned how s/he would like to see Victor as Bennett. Of course, now that's all I want to see.

So it was deliberately out of context to evoke blurring of memories? OK, I'll buy that.

The stuff in the attic made me wonder - might Epitaph 1 all have taken place in the attic instead of the real world? It might explain that weird ending with the survivors going up into what looks to be the sunlight.

I can see it happening, Frank. Not sure how well I'm gonna like it, though. Good call.
IOmeandmystudiesN: boy, can I understand now the metaphor after 4 hours of anthropology class about emotional management and the emotional labor that's now a part of the service industry. And yet, there's this: [link]

Wacky theory, Frank. I like it! Although, I'd be surprised if that's what they were thinking when it was made.

Yeah, especially since I don't think they really knew what the Attic was going to be until they started writing this season. At least that's already paid off a little better than, say, "Tormented Space" or "Sydney wakes up 1 year later in Hong Kong (or wherever it was)".
