[Episode Discussion] 2x08 - “Carry On”
 

The minute Ben followed the chanting to the Meditation Center, I knew it would lead to finding TJ. You gotta really trust the callings because underground dark tunnel traveling is not my thing. I felt claustrophobic watching Ben and Olive do it. YIKES!

I still don't know what to make of Jared's arc. If he's undercover and the captain is in on it (as that last scene suggests) why did he have to blackmail that records guy to get Michaela’s file? Couldn't the captain have just given him access? :confused: And from the surveillance recording the bartender doesn't sound as innocent as she lets on. I think I heard her say to her brother she can handle Jared and that Michaela was the problem. At any rate, very interesting. :shrug:

Saanvi/Zeke: enjoyed their scenes even more than I knew I would. Zeke I know you're desperate but don't.take.that."cure"!!! Lost of memory is probably just the beginning of the side-effects of the "cure". What if she ends up forgetting the entire 828 ordeal?

Michaela/Zeke::in_love: One brief scene to end the episode but so much said. Zeke is dying but he won't die. I am dying on that hill! :D

Ahh I missed the episode last night but I watched it first thing in the morning. (Im watching it again as we speak)

Enjoyed the Olive/Ben scenes. And im relieved TJ is alived

I do think the Captain knows everything about Jared’s ordeal.

Love the end scene with Mik and Zeke. It was sweet

So there is a repercussion getting rid of the calling, interesting

Watched it twice now. Loved this ep! My fave thing, of course, were all the Father/Daughter moments that left me in tears...the 2 of them talking about TJ and how much he meant to them! I thought that somehow, they would find TJ alive and I'm happy I was right about that! And loved the fact that TJ's calling is what saved him at first. Then Ben's calling saved him again!

Saanvi forgetting the whole kiss with Alex...WOW-that is a very serious side effect.

This whole Jared storyline-I'm sure the Captain is in on it and Jared is undercover-weird storyline tho. The Xers know he's a cop and yet, are letting him in on their meetings. He is very convincing tho. Jared's new gf is obviously not as :cool: as I first thought she was. She is also an Xer. And therefore dangerous.

I missed Cal but he will be front and center next ep!

Poor Zeke. That end scene with them...:broken_heart:

I'm happy that Olive and Ben found TJ. It was really sad seeing Olive so heartbroken over her first love.


I'm not sure what is going on either. Either Jared has become a crooked cop and he really hates the passengers because of his breakup with Mick, or he's undercover and the Captain knows about it. I gotta say so, I hated that Mick is blaming herself for Jared's decisions. No, no, girl. Jared's bad decisions are his own. You are not responsible for him.



Hmm, we'll see.

Another fantastic episode.

The Ben and Olive interactions were the highlight. I’ve been waiting for that kind of resolution between them all season. And then the joint journey to find TJ made it even better.

Missed Cal.

I love Grace brought up Ben not mourning his mom because he’s been so focused on taking care of everyone else.

Not a fan of Ben’s colleague nor his gang of haters. Simon doesn’t want any violence until his “plan” is enacted. Is he going to put the passengers in concentration camps? Poison them? It all sounds diabolical and scary.

I 100% believe Jared is undercover. I’ve always thought that because the seeds for his being undercover were planted last season when he just happened to be at the Stone house when the Xers attacked. You can tell he has a soft spot for Grace and the kids because he’s always concerned when any violence against them is mentioned. Which makes sense because he, Olive and Grace went through the plane’s disappearance together. I wish they would have shown more of all of them grieving together in last season‘a flashback episode instead of focusing on how the two alternate romances started.

Love Drea. She’s a lot of fun. She and Mick have a nice vibe together.

I have a theory that Saanvi’s “cure” is angering the Callings so might be triggering things like Zeke’s frostbite starting 6 months early. I assume we’ll get a Jekyll/Hyde story with Saanvi. It’s actually an interesting angle to take.

I think Jared might be undercover too. Or he could have a legitimate hate for the passengers. I just think he would make a great villain because he's so self-righteous all the time I just want to hit him.

Another beautiful and emotional episode. Sadly thanks to the various promos
I knew TJ was alive but the scene where Ben and Olive found him was really emotional. Love all the scenes between Ben and Olive :love: . I'm happy for once she left his father take care of her.

I always suspected that Jared was undercorver and the captain knew about it. After the last ep I'm sure of it.

I enjoyed the scenes between Zeke and Saanvi, I hope she will be able to save him.
I knew there were going to be side effect for the cure, but memory loss :jaw_drop: I don't know what is worse :cry: why every options has to be so heartbreaking :broken_heart:

The scene at the end where Michaela find out about Zeke:broken_heart: her tears at the thought of losing him :bawl: Zeke can't freeze to death already :bawl: it's too soon. He still have 6 months :broken_heart:

I missed Cal again :(

I hadn't really thought about this before now, but with Saanvi having memory issues, and from the next ep's promos, I'm worried. She should not be practicing medicine right now. Scary.
