Me too. I love Noble as Walter, but Jackson as Peter is winning me over week by week!
I really like how it all comes down to relationships. The science is secondary to how these characters feel about one another.
Heh ... good point. The final scene seems to suggest that there is, at least, the possibility.
Niiiiice.
So ... I'm writing my review of the episode. I'm thinking it's a B+ ... but not quite the best the series has had to offer thus far. Thoughts?
I think it was about a B episode. There were some good bits in the episode and some good acting although I would have liked more of 100% Walter for Noble to sink his teeth into portraying the difference between him and the current Walter.
I wonder if that bit at the end was Walter remembering what he remembered? If the long-term memory he accessed then hung around in his short-term memory?

I voted Excellent.

I thought this episode was just fantastic. Noble deserves an Emmy (not just for this episode, he's been great since the beginning). I started to mist up a little when they showed him the picture of the coffin. It was also quite interesting to see the pre-insanity Walter.
I believe Pinkner mentioned in an interview (Olivia mentioned it tonight) that Walter is someone who regained his humanity when he went insane (or was made insane, in retrospect) and I really find that to be an interesting idea and Noble really demonstrated it when the brain matter was reconnected.
One other tidbit I enjoyed was the origin of Bell's alias, Simon Paris. Simon is Nimoy's middle name and Paris is the name of his Mission Impossible character.

She's always been shown to be a crack shot. I like how she waited for an optimal shot instead of just firing sporadically at the fleeing vehicle like most shows.
