It's a great series. The asteroid didn't kill everyone, but the future didn't change, and the Director decided to change the government once the murders started.

The episode is very good, but I don't understand, wasn't it easier not to rescue Bishop from an already falling plane, but just to prevent him from boarding? They have thousands of travelers embedded, they could arrange an accident with his car before the flight, or a shootout where he would get an insignificant injury, or even arrange a problem with documents / ticket, throw something forbidden in luggage, stuff laxatives in coffee before departure.. Although, of course, it's not as dramatic and spectacular as a plane crash..

@Humgat: It's better to forget about logic in this series, it doesn't stand up to any criticism. But the setting and McCormack are good. :)

@Humgat: They couldn't do this because they move according to the coordinates of the time and place of death. They didn't save him, but replaced him with a traveler.

@Humgat: They just needed a "miraculously" surviving congressman. Who has experienced a tragedy... It shocked him so much that he decided to replay some of his decisions. And he became a different person altogether.

And how can his miraculous rescue affect the construction of the pipeline? If they needed the moment of death, they could put him on another flight and then arrange, for example, a car accident or something similar, rather than risk the agent's life in a complex operation.

I knew Carly's husband would cause a lot of problems.

I agree, his wife is a stranger to him., it would be better to save the child, why was he shown several times in close-up?

Maybe it's because Catherine wasn't supposed to be on the plane, she was there by accident. But the boy's death is "a foregone conclusion" and "according to plan"

@zula22: What does he care about this boy?

How is it that some lousy cop can easily look through the dossier on an FBI special agent?

So he's not looking at the agent's personal file, but just the general driver's data, which contains information like everyone else's, in pm address

It's a great series, both in terms of plot and character development.

The scriptwriters are basically great. And the actors generally play well. But in this episode there was some kind of a turning point in the narrative. The errors were too obvious. In addition to the questions I've already asked about this series, I have a few more.
The plane took off and flew for about an hour, but the team by car on the ground caught up with it and arrived at the crash site - how is that at all? Is the speed of a car several times faster than the speed of an airplane???
The fire started in the tail section and that's where the hero climbs to escape. Even if the fire extinguishing system were to fail, he would have to die from the combustion products there. Gorenje There was a lot of smoke.

In short, all hopes of creating a consistent picture of the world can be postponed and continue to watch the series, assuming that from time to time you will come across fierce illogical game. I wish I could talk to the screenwriters who write these kinds of moments, don't they realize what kind of bullshit they're coming up with?

But despite all these blunders, the series is very dynamic and interesting.

@id1081158: In the episode, it was said that the plane turned around and flew back, but did not reach.. Mb there was just a little bit left

@id67671100: Well, he didn't fly back for an hour, did he? And not for half an hour. And the plane, as far as I remember, wasn't a small propeller plane, but something like a Boeing. And they have a flight speed of 800 km per hour. In general, even if you try very hard, there is no way to explain the inconsistencies in logic.
