Or cameras. I thought of that too when Emily was sneaking around. Especially since they have tiny cameras in all the ambassador uniforms.

or door locks... or guards... or anything security related! I didn't quite understand why they gave her the gun back and then let her aimlessly run around the ship. Same with Chad, they aren't exactly brilliant aliens if they let humans wander straight into their medical testing area.

I don't get why they are suddenly developing emotions either, nothing they are doing in the show wouldn't have cropped up on their home plant emotional wise, If it's their disguises that are causing it then are are pretty retarded as well.

Still, I love the show for what it is, mindless sci fi entertainment. That's all I want/need :p I didn't know it was the finale this week so I'm pretty miffed I now have to wait 6 months :/

What do you guys think of Ana's second in command, Marcus?

Do you think he is just as bad as she is or do you think he will turn out to be the surprise element of the series as a Fifth Column?

The reason I ask this is because if you notice, every time Ana wants to do something drastic, he finds a way to stop her. If you the end season finale, you will know what I am talking about. He is one dude I cannot figure out.

The season finale you see Marcus revive the V medical doctor Joshua. I dont know about you but I think Marcus is John May. We haven't see him hurt anyone yet. He only informs Anna as to what is going on. Why he is going after kyle hobbs are not telling anna about it. He also told kyle that he has been working for him for a very long time, why didn't he say you have been working for anna or us for a very long time.

Why was Joshua revived by Marcus and is Joshua really Human like Ana said? If so, what is he doing on that ship?

Joshua NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(

On second thought HE'S REVIVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Uh Marcus is a 5th Column?

I assumed he was revived so that Ana wouldn't be cheated by an easy death. She wants her traitors skinned alive.

He seems to be the most emotionless of the bunch (and thus, the most alien). He wanted to stop Ana because she was acting irrationally and emotionally (and gasp, somewhat human).

We haven't see him hurt anyone yet. He only informs Anna as to what is going on. Why he is going after kyle hobbs are not telling anna about it. He also told kyle that he has been working for him for a very long time, why didn't he say you have been working for anna or us for a very long time.

Markus actually being John May would be the kind of plot twist that most people wouldn't see coming. I'm not sure that it fits with what we've seen though. If he was John May then he's one heck of an undercover agent.

Why was Joshua revived by Marcus and is Joshua really Human like Ana said? If so, what is he doing on that ship?

There is no way that Joshua is human. Ana made that cover story because she didn't want Chad (the reporter guy) to think that any Vs could turn against her and/or be violent.

Ana needs to install some security cameras in her ship. It'd save her from a lot of problems lol.

It doesn't say much for the plot when futuristic aliens don't have the ability to prevent problems as well as 20/21st century human technology could. Don't get me wrong, I'll watch V but at times it doesn't strike me to be any more developed than something like Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda. I'm likely making that connection because the ship's Avatar from Andromeda was played by the same actress that plays the 5th column obstetrician.

The way Ana reacted to what happened caught me by surprise. As for Marcus, I'd say he revived Joshua so that Ana could torture him. After all, they think he's responsible for what happened to the soldier eggs.

And he is responsible either directly or indirectly because he supplied the blue energy grenade that was used.

I disagree. I think he's working against Ana. I don't know if he's fifth column, but he seems to be going around Ana for quite a few things, and he obviously disagreed with her on sending out the signal. He's disagreed with her a lot, in fact. Torturing Joshua adds very little to the show. Marcus being fifth column, or trying to unseat Ana, brings a lot to the show.

Agreed on all counts of the security on the ship being pathetic.

wasnt John May, revealed in an earlier episode, played by Michael Trucco (sam, one of the final five on BSG). Ryan killed him.

He could be waiting in the wings to see if she fails so he can take her place as the V invasion leader. Maybe a nod to the old power struggle in the original series with Diana and the other alien who's name escapes me (not John).

If they make the second season episodes as interesting as Tuesday's episode, they will get a 3rd season.

I think the main reason they'll get the second season is because the first was so damn slow. If they can the show now the story will be left hanging. But I think they'll ramp things up now that the Vs are starting to show their true colours.

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
    • you can also do this with this tool: PowerSettingsExplorer made by mbk1969 at 3dguru forum.. I found it by accident researching on modern standby and annoying quirks of it in 2022
