Freak of the Week: We open with a plane and a dude having a nosebleed. Those two things are never good separately on this show, let alone together. The dude tells the flight attendants that he's, like, Hulking out or something, and to lock him in the bathroom and find him sedatives. In the bathroom, his teeth start falling out and huge porcupine spike things start coming out of his back. Then all of the sudden he bursts out of the door like a freaking Bigfoot or something. That was HELLA COOL!
The plane crashes, and The Gang finds the Bigfoot Thing's body. There is much nasty autopsy. Using John's shared memories, Olivia tracks down another dude who starts undergoing the same transformation.
Olivia treats The Tank like a Jacuzzi. Again with The Tank!? She goes in to try to pull out some key John Memories because he was part of a bioterrorist cell with these other guys. John interacts with her while she's in the memory, which is freaky and, according to Walter, not supposed to happen. John tells her that he was on a secret NSA task force along with the others, that they weren't the bad guys.
Olivia and Pacey go undercover as very, very fashionable bioweapon buyers. They look uber-hot doing it. And Pacey's good at lying, which I find hot. And in the end they catch the Big Bioterrorist Bad.
At the end, Olivia asks Walter to put her back in The Tank so she can try to find out the truth about John. HOLYCHRIST, GIRL! Enough with The Tank, you're gonna be a freaking LSD addict. Actually, that sounds good to me right about now. I want a Tank of my own. And a Walter and Pacey to put me in it!
So I guess we're supposed to believe, and Olivia seems to, that John was a Good Guy after all. I still don't buy it.
Next week: the return of the German Dr. Jones, who traveled from Germany to Massachusetts in one second flat! Yay! He's spooky.
