There were some touching moments in this episode:
- When Kiera was comforting her grandmother after Mattie (Kellog's grandmother) was killed by Travis. Note: Kellog did not cease to exist after she died so who knows what that means. I still don't trust Kellog.
- It's funny that Lilly was not at all the grandmotherly type. Instead she was a nose ringed, lip ringed, tattooed hellion. Its funny to think of your parent/grandparents like that. Perspective really is everything.
- When Kieraand her son were watching news footage of the Liber8 attack that she thought had killed her husband Greg (thank goodness he was still alive). And is it just me or can Greg not act?
I'm looking forward to the next episode. Below is info n the next two episodes from Wikipedia.
Episode 5 "A Test of Time"
Kagame’s return begins with a reset of Liber8’s agenda, away from violence and towards blending into the community and fostering their revolution through co-opting existing structures. But they have a vulnerability - the possibility that if their ancestors, living in this time, are murdered, they might cease to exist. Due to Kiera's interference, Liber8 have decided to deal with her, and Kagame has a plan: by killing her grandmother Lily Jones, Kiera will never be born - getting rid of Kiera once and for all (as eliminating her grandmother means Kiera will never exist), and also testing the theory, with Kiera and her grandmother as the guinea pigs. The first woman they kill by the name of Lily turns out to be the wrong woman and when Kiera hears the news she knows exactly what Kagame's up to. She sets out to find her grandmother but isn't quite ready for the pregnant and homeless punk she finds living on the street. Kellog gives her a heads up, but a suspicious Kagame has already taken out insurance against him - Kellog's grandmother, Maddie. The game they are playing soon becomes tit for tat with no possible winner.
Episode 6 "Time's Up"
Kagame pursues step one of his new agenda - win the intellectuals and the grass roots dissenters. The Liber8 freedom fighters actively support and encourage violent protests, using present-day anarchists to riot outside the company headquarters of a major corporation; Exotrol. During the protest, the CEO of Exotrol, Henrietta Sherman, is kidnapped by Liber8. Kiera suspects Liber8 was behind the violence at the protest, to provide cover for the kidnapping. A video of Sherman is soon on the Internet and her kidnappers demands, for $20 million in cash, is revealed. Kagame decides to put the decision to kill or free her to an Internet vote - confirming to Kiera that Liber8 have changed their tactics and are trying to get the public on their side by getting them to vote whether she lives or dies and to expose the truth. Kiera and Carlos race a literal ticking clock in order to save Sherman from the public's wrath. It later turns out that someone inside Exotrol may be working with Liber8. While Kiera is away, Kellog breaks into her apartment and steals the piece of the time travel device. Alec faces his own dilemma when he realizes that his step-brother, Julian, is one of the violent protesters.
Episode 7 "The Politics Of Time"
A high-stakes Port of Vancouver Union Election gives Kiera her first taste of contemporary political intrigue. First, the issue of Kiera's trust and loyalty of her partner come into question as evidence points Carlos in the death of an investigative reporter: Carlos finds himself investigating the murder of journalist Alicia Fuentes, who he slept with the night before her death. He had received a call from Carlos's lifelong old friend, Jim Martin, who is running as the leading candidate in the polls for election as the head of the local dock workers union, on a platform of cleaning up the union's corrupt practices. Martin was having an argument with Alicia, who was about to blow the lid off a dirty secret Martin may have been hiding. Carlos knew Alicia, picked her up and after dinner spent most of the night at her apartment. When they find her dead the next morning, he tells no one, not even Kiera, that he was there until about 1:30. Meanwhile, Alec is trying to fix Kiera's suit, and with some of its capability restored, she gets a lead on the killer, and also finds that the piece of the time travel device is missing, and knows Kellog has to be the one who took it. While covertly and desperately trying to clear both men and find out who killed Alicia, Kiera will learn first-hand the lengths one will go to get elected - and the allies they associate with once victory is achieved.
