The DSR - Episode 4x02 - Divergence

This was an unexpected pick-up from the premiere. With how The DSR normally is, we have to wait for answers. But to my surprise, we have a lot of them already. I was expecting to have to wait a while before we found out what had happened to the others during the events of the season premiere. The answers we did get were great, and were yet again told in a great way.

Surprisingly enough, my first ever Jimbo’s Next Theory actually came true (partly). Ethan is, at this point, going to start working for somebody else – specifically the President. With The DSR on the verge of being closed down, I can definitely see the US government playing a much larger role this season then they had in the past.

I must also say, it was a superb idea to cast Naveen Andrews as Chahine. All of his dialogue was amazingly written, as I could see him actually playing the role. Chahine becoming the moster-like creature was great and quite frankly freaked me out a bit. I wonder if the creatures running after Jai and company were injected with the same substance as Chahine gave himself.

Also, I loved the E.T. joke that Rayen made by the way. It’s the only good E.T. joke I’ve ever heard, and it was funny as hell.

Finally, I think I may have found a continuation error in this one. In the premiere, the television reporter in the alternate world said that it had been 1 year after the event. However, this episode takes place about 1 MONTH after the event. Does this mean anything, or was this actually an error?

Oh, and 1 more question, super quick. I don’t recall whether this was brought up in previous episodes or not, so please tell me if it was so I know for future reference. Sorry…

Had we heard about Kendall’s wife being ‘at large’ before? I just don't remember at all.

Jimbo’s Next Theory
Those creatures running after our group were injected with the same substance that Chahine used on himself before crossing through the energy and turning into the creature.
