But it is not sticking this serialized landing.

Liz rightfully asks, And you trust him more than her?

For some reason, he does.

Too late, buddy, shes on to you!

I dont know what to believe!

But I understand its a complicated situation.

On the other hand, Scottie tells Tom that the matter of national security is preventingHowardfrom getting to Whitehall.

Meanwhile, Scottie is rubber-baby-buggy-bumpersin it as Agent Cooper COOPS IN DA HOUSE!!!

Scottie Hargrave is not doing so well right now.

He puts his head against her gun and asks if Whitehall is worth killing him: Thendo it!

But its all a play to get the gun away from her.

I guess I take after my father.

Next on Howards free-roam agenda: Radio Shack.

Since he designed the servers, he knows andonlyhe knows that theres a backdoor they can hack into.

But thats all Tom gets for now, because they have to stay vigilant.

Halcyon really needs an H.R.

With a man being held inside a Plexiglas room covered wall to wall in equations?

I am Richard Whitehall.

Yes, of course!

Everything is making sense now.

Her allegiances have remained ambiguous all episode, but she seems truly startled to see Howard.

In her moment of weakness, Solomon appears he has no such weakness.

With his gun trained on them, he instructs Nez to get the bag of research.

She checks it, tells him its in there, then hands the bag to Solomon.

Then she shows him the ring shes just pulled from the explosive unit she apparently placed in the bag.

Quantum computing takes advantage of quantum particles by spinning in two different directions at once.

Cue Howard Hargrave, very much alive, giving a press conference in front of the Halcyon building.

I know youre watching, honey.

And Im coming for you.

A Few Loose Ends:

I think maybe everyone on this show is a villain?

Its gonna take more than a few pool balls to mess up that handsome mug, Solomon.

Whatis happening with this Kat/Trevor/Scottie story line?

He has to end up being some kind of spy-rostitute, right?

This isnt just for character-building is it?

Tom, while cuffing Solomon to a pipe: Why cant we just be friends?

Solomon: Youre mybestfriend!

Wasthe blueprint for the prototype in that bag Nez blew up?

I couldnt tell if she was bluffing.
