Cold was the episode that told the age of the building.
the safety/security inspector wasn't really, they assumed that's who he was, he was in fact working for Victor and used that to gain entrance, the inspector they were expecting never showed. it was never explained what Victor's 'investigator' was actually doing and his purpose.
and I totally forgot an important point... another mistake. when Blake was showing Josie around and telling her of the unusual designs given the building, he mentioned that certain rooms were made to face certain directions and the 'vents' were placed in odd positions. well, in the 1870s, they didn't have 'vents', the term had not yet been coined, there was no central heat and air, and what indoor heat source they had would have had registers not vents, if they had anything like that at all.

maybe it was chemical vents, like a passive fume hood for the science rooms.

The inspector was supposed to be a security inspector, and when he saw the cracks and asked abut them to Durst, she and Z said the first thing it came to ther minds. safety inspector is what he came off as. well, in the 1870s, they didn't have 'vents', the term had not yet been coined, there was no central heat and air, and what indoor heat source they had would have had registers not vents, if they had anything like that at all. Well, the school was modelled after an English design. England was going through the industrial revolution at that time, I think. According to my research (*hehehe* That's weird to say), air conditioning began appearing around the 1900s, however it was mainly only used in factories. Mr. Avenir seems like the kind of guy who would know about it if it did exist at that time. Does the Auchmar Estate actually have an air conditioning / heating unit?

safety inspector is what he came off as. And thats what he was meant to come across as for Durst and Z--and the viewer at the start, but as the viewer finds out at the end of that episode, he wasn't. Or didn't exist at the time...

I am too lazy to read through all the posts... was the janitor in this one? I think it was him on the roof just before it cut to the scene with them all being freaked out about being stuck in that time... I forgot when... blah clog is you feel like smiling!

He knew where Josie was not because he's from the future, but because he knew where the wormhole would be. He knew she was from the future. He's probably from it himself, and knew that Sarah and Victory would create the wormhole and it would channel into his school.

It seems like you've lived in that age I am too lazy to read through all the posts... was the janitor in this one? He appears when Vaughn is sent to 1977. He tells him he must not interfere with an important event.

Cause 1) he knew exactly where the Science Club Kids went to & 2) at the end he said "Well done Josie."[/glow] Well, it's logical that the Science Club would be in the Science office since that's where the wormhole is. Well, if Josie went back in time at another point in time and interacted with Mr. Avenir in his past, then he would have already known about Josie. He doesn't necessarily have to be a time traveller but may have had other time travellers drop in on him. How would paladium do to affect a wormhole? We already know that there are strange gravitational forces present in the janitor's residence and Z's office. The least dense metal on the planet shouldn't account for that, right? Why hasn't Victor investigated the Janitor's residence? That was season 1 where he told the inspector that he wanted to know more about the Janitor.

He doesn't necessarily have to be a time traveller but may have had other time travellers drop in on him. Avenir knew where they were because he knew how they got there, and also knew they would want to return to their time. with any incident as that, it's logical to return from where you came. point of entry also being point of departure.
Avenir is probably much like the Janitor and can go between times too. time holds no force with some.How would paladium do to affect a wormhole? We already know that there are strange gravitational forces present in the janitor's residence and Z's office. The least dense metal on the planet shouldn't account for that, right? Palladium. in addition to being an element, is defined as that which affords effectual protection or security, a safeguard. and is also named for Pallas goddess of wisdom. how would Palladium affect the wormhole? why was Palladium chosen? probably another obscure BHH reference, just as the others we wonder why and how. but as usual, there's always a reason.Why hasn't Victor investigated the Janitor's residence? That was season 1 where he told the inspector that he wanted to know more about the Janitor. maybe Victor wasn't allowed. or maybe it's one of those things where it seems perfectly normal unless you know exactly where to look.

Well the Janitor and Aveneir do seem somewhat like enemies. The Janitor and Josie2 are probably allied, but go about the same goals in different ways.
