    What is science?


    It seems to me that they barely put any scientific evidences behind this episode? like Walter's machine? it is so impossible according to quantum physics. Previous episodes I could imagine all of those things become a relity in a real future but the time travelling and transporting.... way to far with little scienctif ( at least they could have made up something ) explanation.

    I wouldnt say I didnt like it but it was frustrating. What they did allows us to think on our own to make theories of what could be happening. I would eventually like to know if I cannot figure it out on my own but I really dont mind people making me think. It is how we learn. If someone tells you everything all the time and never allows you to think for yourself you will eventually be dependant on them and cannot think for yourself.

    the thing is that the greatest minds of our time have not figured it out.... and some of them have classified teleportation and time traveling to the past as impossible.

    Just because they didn't share a scienctific explanation now doesn't mean there won't be one later. Look at all the unanswered questions that have been piling up since the show started.

    I think there wasn't enough time to squeeze in a explanation to the timetraveling thing. I would either be rushed or incredibly lame, we will get a (fictional) explanation someday I think. They did tell us how it's possible to walk through walls, it sounded very credible for me.

    walking through walls = easy to believe

    I need a fictional explanation!!!! for time/space travelling

    Dude, be fair. The space traveling only happened in the last two minutes or so.. how would it be even possible (writers wise) to give an explanation?

    when Walter was talking to peter about the machine and said all the theory behind it would work...I was expecting him to give an analogy !

    I think it will be explained once they find out Jones escaped. At that point Walter will have a reason to explain it rather than just to appease the audience.
