Yeah, given that we know old Alec charged Garza with being his failsafe, I'm glad that she's still alive. And It will be cool that we'll see more of her working...well if not with then alongside of, Kiera. I like her. And I like that the entire Liber8 thing is sort of small potatoes now, but hasn't been resolved. And I like that Alec is sort of the major arc of the season!

Holy crap holy crap holy crap! Lol that's about the only thing I can say. They're being really logical about time travel and I can't wait to see this timeline play out. I really like that they've set it up so we have 'good' Alec and 'bad' Alec. It totally ties into the continuing theme of Alec being possibly good, possibly evil.

But yeah, all of the timeline branching is baking my noodle. If they've destroyed the 'original' timeline, then does that mean Kiera has to perfectly recreate it in order to get home to a world that has the exact same circumstances she left it in? And how will she know? The implication that she shot 'herself' in the head is so coldblooded, but did an excellent job of underlining her willingness to do the same to one of the Alecs.

And I loved the explanation for the tattoos between the fingers! It feels like this reveal was always in their endgame, which is amazing, considering it's coming so late in the run. Really impressive.

Me too! This is definitely the kind of show that requires discussion :)

The finger tattoos were done off screen, the lady who explained stuff said, "come with me" right before she put her inside the giant chocolate orange? (that's what I think of when I see the time travel device)

And so now also we have established antique travel devices, modern ones, and tech that cuts across alternating realities. Is it possible that Kiera could travel ahead into the new timeline, to check her progress? Idk, but I agree, this ep is going to need a rewatch!
