I get the distinct impression that Odan has a thing for time-travel, or perhaps it's just a coincidence with the Tennat avi?

I would say that's a good guess.

Well, I have made it to episode 311 and I have to say I'm impressed. Spoilers follow so read at your discretion.

We inevitably knew it was coming. What started out as a simple premise in season 1 became more tangled in season 2 and even more so in season 3. Two Alecs? Two Keiras? Multiple timelines? Liber8, the Freelancers, Piron, Sadtech, etc. All of it was getting more difficult to process by the episode, with multiple parties with their secret agendas, the back and forth between their secrets, the development of technologies that shouldn't exist, and so on.

 

"3 Minutes to Midnight" (episode 311) acknowledged a simple truth: you may change the future, but it's not that easy to steer it. In this episode we get to meet a John Doe who eventually discovers he came from the year 2039. At the end of the episode, as Keira, Liber8, Kellog, and Chen, are all reunited, he reveals to them that his reality is plagued by a never-ending war between the government and the corporations with ordinary people caught in the crossfire. To prevent this future, he's sent back to 2014 by 2039's Matthew Kellog. Keira herself comes clean with Liber8 and informs them she's not the Keira from their timeline as she spells out the inevitable conclusion: nothing that they do matters. All of them will always be pawns in someone else's scheme to shape the future. The episode ends with everyone going their own way while they figure out what to do after this sudden realization.

 

And it's good we finally got to this point. To my mind, the show was starting to lose its way and I feared we might go from one secret organisation to another and another until we lost all sight of an endgame. This episode said, "Look, we could do this all day. See here? Now Kellog sent his own agent to change the future. What's to stop someone else from doing the same and perpetuate the cycle?" The answer, of course, is absolutely nothing. We could go down that road and tire fast.

 

Throughout this season we've seen Keira experience a rather radical change, no longer solely concerned about preserving her future but also trying to make it better. She has betrayed friends and forged alliances trying to deal with this timeline shift she's experienced but she seems to have finally made up her mind as to where her loyalties lie and who is deserving of her trust.

 

Yes, I do expect her to rescue the other Alec at some point. Meelo-style.

 

 

In the end, I think it was smart on the writers' part to address this problem head-on. I just hope their solution is even smarter.

Gawd I hope so cause the show is on the bubble and it would suck to see it end on a cliff hanger.

I have a feeling Dillon's going to the dark side. When he had his speech near the end of the episode, I immediately thought of Captain America's statement: "This isn't freedom. This is fear."

With the new details, the time travel situation is just as exciting as Fox fixing the X-Men film continuity with Days of Future Past. In the words of Professor X: "I don't want your suffering! I don't want your future!"

Only two more episodes for this season...

The seasons been pretty crazy, so much to see. This is my favorite show right now, I really hope it continues. The Kickstarter thing Rachel was involved with had a reward of a walk on role for season 4, but they've since promised an alternative if the fourth doesn't happen. Hope that's just them covering their bases.

The silence is broken. Season 4 is happening, but it will only last six episodes & be a close to the series. Sad to see it go, but atleast they get to conclude the series. Hope they go absolutely crazy with what they got left.

6 episodes is still better than nothing. I hope they're able to tie everything together smartly. In fact, I thought they had pretty much wrapped everything up until we saw the "force from the future."

Just a heads up:
