Okay, don't think me weird, but here's an activity I participated in today. We have this Yu-Gi-Oh toy from Burger King lying around and it comes in a nice-sized cardboard pyramid... Joe notices it today and *bing* lightbulb goes off. I unfolded it, traced it on some silver construction paper, taped the new one together and added a red square on top. Woo-hoo, I have a (non-functional, mind you   ) tesserect device! Here's my scans. LOL Click the links, please, and let me know if I really do have too much time on my hands. ;D img.photobucket.com/albums/v211/SBFlyFan/TesserectDevice1.jpgimg.photobucket.com/albums/v211/SBFlyFan/TesserectDevice2.jpg ;D ;D ;D |

That's nice work, Joe  Shortandsweet - liked the hug, eh? Have you considered joining the subtext society?  MirrorCard: I think we're supposed to take this episode as though the events have occured. All of the information is correct for us. I know it doesn't advance the knowledge of anybody but Lucas but it provides us with vital clues and stuff. And makes us go hmmm... Middleton, eh? |

Much to my surprise I really enjoyed this episode, though I still can't stand Lucas.
Can soemone explain the end to me, how did he get back to it like never happening??

Hailstorm, what is a "subtext society"? **It's where we discuss the things we can't talk about so much here. Such as M/Lness. Click Here if you're interested/morbidly curious - Hail** **This was also the wrong place to ask this, shortandsweet. You too, Mac *points to post after this one*. I'm surprised. - MirrorCard** |

Why that point of space and time?...not sure...
You'd think it would have gone back to where Lucas activated the Tesseract device...must be some reason...there's always a reason... |

All of the information is correct for us. I know it doesn't advance the knowledge of anybody but Lucas but it provides us with vital clues and stuff. And makes us go hmmm... Middleton, eh? What are these vital clues? everything in the episode we already knew. Vaughn not to be trusted. apple doesn't fall far from the tree. yeah, that was in Transference. We only got another question "what happened to Prof Middleton?" little progression of the story. I kind of want to deem it a filler. any "yays" on that? |

nay! this is no filler. this is quite central to the story. just because you didnt like it doesnt make it filler.

nay! this is no filler. this is quite central to the story. just because you didnt like it doesnt make it filler. It's not that i don't like it, it is that no development is made. An episode that lacks development/advancement to the primary storyline is a filler, correct? You are right, Mac, it is an episode that involves the central plot. Thing is, what the episode told us we alredy knew because of Transference. It would be like someone posting in a thread, in a couple of hours, about Prof Z's first name that Prof Z's first name is Noel. yes it is relevant to the thread but it gives nothing new. |

an episode that advances the plot? just including episodes to this point:
Wormhole
Fate
Culture
Wormhole2
Brainwaves
Chemistry
Echolocation
Stopwatch
8 out of 30 episodes. not bad. but I define plot-central as episodes that bring up minor but important details, like Radio and Genome. And the fact that this episode reveals that Middleton knew more than we thought and that the Janitor is working for a higher power is quite important.

Tesseract was an AWESOME episode. Probably one of the top 5, just because you learn so much from it. I thought it was amazing. It was so important to the main plot. And I loved Lucas in it. I also liked Corrine in that episode as well. "Dream Lucas pinch me." lol. I think it was a great episode and very, very important. Great graphics and effects in that episode as well.

We got to take the filler arguement to another thread. It'll overflow into discussions about a lot of other episodes. strangedays.proboards22.com/index.cgi?board=spoiler&action=display&thread=1096865617 And the fact that this episode reveals ... that the Janitor is working for a higher power is quite important. We knew that with Transference as well. Talks here were leaning that way with Genome and it was confirmed with Transference. Again, this episode repeats old news from Transference. And the fact that this episode reveals that Middleton knew more than we thought ... Yes, I addressed that. For the most part, Prof Middleton says what we (and Lucas, the others don't believe Lucas) already knew (Vaughn bad, can't trust Vaughn). This episode would be one of those episodes where only 10-seconds of it gives something to the main storyline. i keep hearing "Tesseract is important to the main plot" but that's the end of the sentence (but it does have excellent graphics, yes). No one can give it any support. Everything said in it (minus the Prof Middleton's disappearence, not what he said though) was in Transference. You'll probably say, This episode was important because: *We learned Lucas doesn't trust Vaughn and Victor (which was in Transference, and maybe Stopwatch) *Prof Middleton said not to trust Vaughn (which we got in Transference) *Prof Middleton knows more than we thought *The janitor works for a higher power (which we got in Genome and Transference, and maybe Culture) *Prof Middleton thought someone was coming after him (implying Victor's people which would stem from the trust of Vaughn because that was their conversation - Transference; or he is implying the janitor's people - Transference) |

anyway, back to what i was gonna say. my theory hasn't been thought out thoroughly yet, so not yet i suppose. anyway, i loved it. when middleton said not to trust someone other than victor, do you think the possibility would be the janitor? we don't what his motives truly are.  |

I really liked this episode, Lucas was hilarious and I was happy to see something about him. And yes, I agree it was a very funny one. I especially liked the screaming at the end part ;D
The punching/ pinching part was also very funny. So was the sideways room scene. This is one of the best episodes I've seen. The actors and writers did a fantastic job.

Tesseract is important because...
- we learn the Wormhole can actually be controlled...
and are shown the first method of control...more methods will follow...
- we learn space and time surrounding Blake Holsey is an anomaly...and anything which happens to contact is also drawn into the anomaly...
- and for all of his improbable theories...Lucas finally has encouagement his theories could actually be correct...thus a 'sky's the limit' mentality might ensue...
