    They will pretty much form one big arc, so it seems.

    And many of them seem to be connected in some way from the episode descriptions.

    The Connors plan to run starting in two weeks.

    Another reason I think Season 3 may be in doubt: Josh Friedman himself is writing the finale.

    So was the clinic the dream or the van?
    This is starting to get annoying.
    All they need to do is put more Cameron in her bra on screen to get more people to watch.

    the only thing i got out of this episode was Cameron in a bra, that was the highlight for me

    overall, this ep was a bit boring

    Well I really can't grade this because I still haven't figured out what the hell is going on. I'll grade tomorrow after I watch it on Fox.

    It is simple everything that was not Sarah getting tasered and kidnapped or in the back of the van, or Sarah killing the dude who shot her was all fake. All of the sleep hospital was fake...

    The episode got off to a plodding start, but the uncertainty about what was dream and what was reality kept me guessing until the end. My interpretation is that everything with Winston in the van was real; the sleep clinic was all an hallucination while Sarah was under the influence of the drugs Winston used on her. The one bit that confuses me slightly is when Sarah fought with Winston, causing him to fall on the syringe and (presumably) drug himself; I'm guessing that it was a ruse he was using to get information from her, since he was suddenly able to chase Sarah down and stop her when she got free.

    I'm interested in seeing how Cameron glitches next week. If it winds up with Riley and/or Jesse being dead, I wouldn't mind one bit. They'd better not do serious character assassination for Cameron though.

    I still am somewhat optimistic about an S3, since I seriously doubt T4 wants the bad publicity of the show's cancellation weeks before the premiere--especially since the T4 buzz I've been hearing isn't that good.

    It cheated. As we had "dream" moments where Sarah wasn't present.

    She dreamed that John was seeing Cameron walk by in a bra, too.

    Of course, I was wondering exactly how they were paying for the sleep therapy anyway. (None of them have jobs, do they?) That's a moot point now.

    Can we get past the factory guy now? Enough of the Sarah Trauma Chronicles, unless they are planning an In Treatment crossover.
