Episode Discussion 3x09

[orockthro]

Well dudes, it's that time of the week again. o___o
Tonight's episode (3x09, The Crossing) might be a doozy, so let's hold onto our butts, keep our heads, and don't blink.
Spoilers beyond this point! And also feelings.

I'm fresh from watching and still just stunned with rage.

I liked the Harold/Root scenes ("you have the relationship you want and she respects that" was the explanation I wanted for why the Machine talks to Root and not to Harold, and I was obviously massively smug about the bit about how many people Harold went through before John since I used pretty much that exact line in Fealty)

But now in retrospect, they are making me angry all over again because I am convinced they fridged Carter for Harold as well; they're going to use Carter's death to make Harold change his mind about talking to the Machine.

You're probably right there. I just get angry and upset all over again every time I read someone else's perspectives on this. There is just SO MUCH WRONG about it. I don't know why I can't stop torturing myself by reading comments and posts and I'm not sure if it's theraputic or not. Misery loves company I guess.
