My absolute favourite scene was Jennifer stealing the snake puzzle, that was absolutely hilarious

Yeah I posted my thoughts after watching on Saturday but I figured I'd rather wait for you to watch so I can actually talk about it with someone

But yeah I loved the first 3 episodes, the third especially which was ridiculously good!
Yeah I was certain they were leading up to Olivia being Cole's mother (it was my theory after season 3 with no evidence just because I loved the idea but this episode actually made it seem likely, other than the child's birth date

(and yeah it's a time travel show but I still don't really see the baby being Cole now) So yeah now I'm thinking his mother might be Olivia's child. The concept of The Witness being Cole's grandmother all along though
Imaginary Jennifer was great, loved how her 'death' was similar to older Jennifer's death

Varys with hair in a modern suit, trippy. And I had no idea Julian Richings had joined the cast (Olivia's new henchman). He was brilliant as Death in Supernatural and he's very much channeling that same sinister aura here
How good was it finally seeing the creation of The Witness??

I was right about her connecting herself to the time stream itself. Assuming that's what ends up making her face go all weird and red in the future. And I'm glad the outfit has an actual purpose beyond looking cool / scary, I always figured the tubes on the chest were a life support unit of some sort but I like that the mask is for that too.
Did you notice how the scene of Olivia's mother brushing her hair was identical to the scene of Olivia brushing Jennifer's hair in season 1? Right down to the mirror placement. I love little touches like that. It was even more striking because I thought young Olivia really resembled Jennifer.
