Review by Bam (*****spoilers herein*****) (Don't be shocked, the language is Bam being Bam)
Intro
Ok so a dude can see into the future and can tell what the fuck is going to happen? Where the hell was this guy on 9-11. Wishful thinking meets Walter (I-Love-this-cushion-because-it-keeps-my-ass-warm) Bishop. Damn this show is good. Anyways the A-Team here goes and uses this info to stop a terrorist. Why not use this fucker to win the lottery in order make some cash or before certain companies’ CEO commit massive fraud (cough Enron, cough).

We start up in a confessional a dude is telling a priest about his visions. Some bastards in suits are going to gas a bus. He drew the people dying and left his fingerprint on the paper. Some cops find the bus.

Ok so next we are in the cemetery at a funeral with Olivia Dunham and the gang. They are burying her ex-lover who by the spoiler last week is not dead. (his mom looks at her with such a turn of her nose.

Next, Walter is self-medicating with home-made psychotic drugs. Then he asks to use the bathroom to which his loving son says NO! hold it.
There is some creepy dude taking photos for someone that was employing Bishop Jr. The paparazzi spy gets man-handled and has his stuff jacked. He responds with a “You were supposed to check in.”

The gang goes to a bus. The victims look like bugs stuck in amber. Meanwhile the bastards are looking through some stuff they jacked. The dumbasses must have left something. They were talking on a phone in Portuguese?

We cut back to the dude and he gets another dream. Can we say HEROES? He draws a long haired naked chick with Christ like piercing.

Back at Harvard, Walter asks for a piano and fucks up the junior assistant’s name. He had a lack of commitment. Now Walter questions Bishop Jr. about the weak-ass spy. Dumbass lies through his teeth and his dad catches him.

They are doing evidence work on the bodies and they20find. They found a DEA agent dead. Her handler was I.D.'ed and now they will get to the bottom of how the victims all wound up in jell-O. Maybe we should call Bill Cosby up and have his silly-ass lick them out of there and make a patented big eyed face afterwards instead.

It isn’t the dude that killed them that they meet up with.
The crazy thing is that the handler was told that the pattern came up in conversation with the dead agent.

Next a tip came in to the FBI from the priest that overheard the confession about the dude who we find out, can see the pattern related events.

Now we take part in a conversation with the metal bitch from the first episode. Why does she remind me of Palpatine. What if she is William Bell? Now she says she could blame Dunham because of all the Boston-based attacks.

Bishop brings up one of the greatest thoughts of all time (Occam’s razor - the simplest possibility is the most likely).

Now Walter is the only bastard is that says that psychic premonition is possible after all this evidence presented in this show. I would believe monkeys could fart themselves to the moon if I had this much evidence proving it.

(Some people believe that this ability if it indeed does exist would be because we share a collective unconscious. So imagine we all had a line to a central hub. If we could get out of that hub and onto other lines or get the information out of the hub itself we would have psychic powers. Of course it is bullshit scientifically, spiritually or through faith this might be possible)
 
So now we are going to test the dude’s psychic abilities.
Olivia bugs her boss to give her the access to the pattern files.
Ol’ Bishop wants to see the psychic trails of the dude’s mind through an MRI Machine or at least evidence of hyperactivity centralized around a particular area of the brain. With luck he could find an EM-signal localized around that area of his brain.

The dude is hemorrhaging. There is a lot of metal in the psychic’s blood. Billy Bell and Walt Bishop figured that there is an EM wavelength that was not yet discovered that could be used to communicate information biologically. They wanted to transmit information clandestinely so that secret information couldn’t be listened in on because the enemy would not even know it existed.

They wanted direct transmission from one dude/chick to another via an iridium organo-metallic compound. Fuck no way. The dude would be dead from cancer. Iridium really. Doesn’t that shit decay really slowly. Go read a real scientific marvel Night falls on the Cretaceous for an iridium based adventure that revealed the strongest proof that an asteroid hit near Cancun Mexico and caused a blast so big it hit what would become Los Angeles. The resulting ash covered the skies with ash and blocked out the sun destroying the food webs.

Bishop was the one who gave him the organo-metallics in his blood. How the fuck would the iridium multiply? The iridium fairy? At least they addressed this malfeasance.
The ghost network was the name for the project. Unfortunately they forgot that freaking Roy McComb, the psychic dude, also had work on him done. So the network isn’t quite ghostly.

They want to want to rewire poor Roy’s brain so that the metal, which is around his vision centers, can shift to his auditory cortex. Is this a minor surgery? Fuck no. Then they have a neuro-stimulator so that they can move the organo-metals to his listening centers.
 
Now they are showing the dude a picture of a horse Walter turns up the electricity and then warns Roy that he is possibly going to take a shit in his pants. They keep torturing him until he can speak in Latin. They have done it. They have foun d the bastards using the ghost network. Dunham gets some clue to look at the dead DEA agent. So she does and she finds the damn cut hands. Son of a bitch handler cut her.

So they’re off to find handle-man like a bunch of geeks at a $10 dollar Blu-ray player sale. Dunham takes off … while she takes off C-R-A-Z-Y Bastard Walter thinks that he could give the dude satellite TV in his head. Peter orders for Roy to be removed.

Dunham catches up to the bastard at the train station. Handleman gets his ass shot by some dude after he coughs up the coin shaped disk. Dunham chases the shooter but he jumps in front of the train. (cough resurrection cough) The big victory is that the enemy will not use the ghost network again.

The boss dude congratulates Dunham who had just stormed in the office pissed about nothing was found out. The creepy boss-man says they I.D.'ed the shooter and have leads now. Then she smiles at Roy. High fives and beers all around for the bullshit brigade.

Dunham’s boss shows up at massive dynamics, gives the robo-bitch (who probably is William Bell after a sex change ) the disk and then he has a calm discussion about why she is trying to poach Olivia away from the bureau. (Damn I just froze the screen … Anna Torv is hot. )

Wrap-Up

Every star trek aficionado knows about the tachyon particle. These things may be the source for the preemptive visions that may or may not occur within=2 0dreams. The reason why is that the evidence is that they travel through time. … essentially the particle is probably not showing results of motion that is consistent with impacts on other particles…

Example- a white billiard ball hits a bunch of other billiard balls those balls then move. I conjecture that a tachyon analogy is that the ball may go backwards and the billiard balls still show an impact anyways.

Ok so the big important thing is that if a person that could read these signals we could get transmissions across time or maybe even go into the stream of tachyons.

This has been your bullshit segment we now return you to your regularly scheduled life.
