I see very conflicting reviews here and while the majority are 10 (only a handful of 9s and 8s which is very weird), there are a few who did not like or understand this episode - and I totally get that.
First time I saw it I felt it was boring and not very much related to the progression of the story - slept through half on the scenes if not more and did not get all the way through to the ending. However I felt I needed to give it another chance (just a gut feeling) before I discard this show entirely.
Second time I watched it just now, it still felt a bit boring and very slow paced unlike the other episodes so far. Again I slept through a third of it but got all the way to the end this time.
I have to say I am glad I gave it another chance because it did provide something new, some flavor to the show. Is the theme of time and how we perceive it anything new? no - it has been done and over done many times before - but this episode is a different, original way to look at it.
I have a feeling it will be pivotal to the storyline. Going to watch the next episode now.
PS: no, it is not that I did not understand it the first time, it just bored me to sleep and I'm glad I endured it for a second time, but I agree with the other reviews who felt it was slow and disjointed. PPS: I respect Carrie but her accent and voice helped put me to sleep. PPPS: while most of the casting is great, Bill; a 28 baby-faced man playing a 38 baby-faced man was a clear miss. I can see JJ being the cause of this stupid mistake.
