    I’m honestly disappointed about the double release, because now I have to process two awesome episodes at the same time and I keep getting them mixed up.

    Quick hitters, in no particular order:

    • love Ransom demonstrating competent personnel management, another “surprise” twist of stuff working as it should.
    • the Shax/Ransom exercise scene is fabulous
    • Did that macro virus really get stuck behind a panel on the bridge for a decade (ish), or did curator guy cook it up to enhance the exhibit?
    • the whole Tuvix sequence was the perfect absurdist sequel to the original episode. Apparently T’Lynn and all of the merged persons are also cold blooded murderers in their own special ways.
