OMG, was that not obnoxious?

That was terrible. So obvious and forced.



Hates it! Hates it!

As for the episode itself...meh. The stuff with Claudia and Mrs. Frederic was interesting, but where is it going?

The hockey thing was very vanilla, even with the whole "I love you" thing.

Not their best, IMHO.

[JanewayRulz!]

An aside... I just read about this and thought... KEWL!

The episode was OK, not one their best but I've seen worse. I liked the stuff with Claudia & Mrs. Frederic, and Artie & Jinks, but the hockey/pregnancy story was kinda meh. I am curious what lead Mrs. F to show Claudia all of the stuff from this one though.... I'm wondering if perhaps it's going to turn out she's dying or something.

[auntiehill]

^Yeah, I'm thinking it's something like that. Or she's finally starting to age, so she knows it's time to show Claudia the ropes.

The stuff with Pete was awful, though. Even Hubby, who never complains about any show we watch, said, "OK, he can stop that now."

[propita]

I did like the "penis guard" bit.

[RJDiogenes]

I thought Myka's pregnancy was hysterical.



Er... too obscure?

Well, anyway, I did wonder what was in there. A real baby? Was it Pete and Myka's baby? What would have happened if she had given birth before the artifact was neutralized. Would the baby have disappeared? What if it had taken them ten years to find and neutralize the artifact? Would the kid have disappeared? Weird, but maybe it will make some people think about the core concept of abortion. Pregnant Myka cracked me up, though.

It was very interesting to see Mrs Frederick showing Claudia the ropes. Mrs Frederick must be well over a hundred years old. And she obviously has Claudia in mind as a future Regent-- she never showed any of this stuff to Pete or Myka.

And now Steve knows about the artifacts being stolen and Artie knows about the connection between Steve and Claudia. These people love to keep secrets from each other, but they suck at it.

[Forbin]

It's kind of a TV cliche that they keep REALLY important things secret from each other. Things that would prevent annoying misunderstandings (and, of course, entire episode plots) from happening.

I thought she was training her to be the new Guardian of the Warehouse, which is different from a Regent.

[auntiehill]

^Exactly. Claudia is going to become the "new" Mrs Fredrick, so to speak. A Regent isn't connected to the Warehouse the way the Guardian is.

[Forbin]

Just as long as Claudia doesn't start to LOOK like Mrs. Frederick!

[RJDiogenes]

Yeah, my bad-- the new Mrs Frederick is what I meant. We know she suspects Artie did something; perhaps she has some way of fixing things at the expense of her own life and needs to groom Claudia quickly.

Starts in the UK on September 6th, if that hasn't been mentioned here yet.

Why, yes, I *will* be SyFy's artefact blogger again this year...

[backstept]

I assumed that since Mike's arm wasn't actually healed, but held together with muscle etc that Myka's baby wasn't actually a baby but a concentration of water and other fluids

[CorporalClegg]

It was the Alien baby.

Or maybe the Borg baby.
