yeah the whole season is just random shit happening without much rhyme or reason, selectively picking stuff from season 1-3 and ignoring stuff that would contradict things going on. I'll reserve final judgement until the finale, but I do hope they explain the following things
- why the fuck did the Observers pick 2016 as the invasion point, instead of way way way back further. For a race of Spocks, I can't figure out why they left a "planet that was dying" (Septs words) to only go back 600 years. Also why did they pick "our" Universe instead of RedVerse or any other one?
- what the fuck is up with the more peaceful scientist Observers of s1-3, vs the military version we see now. I am sure they will give an answer to this.
- so... Olivia and Cortexifan... big part of s1-4, all wrapped up? The "she was a battery and now she is drained" explanation is retarded.
I really, really hope we see an episode where they time travel forward to the future to see the Observers "at home", maybe see Observer factions or something which would explain a lot more. I'm pretty sure the finale is going to involve time travel and resetting everything so basically they go back to 2012/2013, stop the invasion before it even happens, and everyone lives happily ever after including a young Etta. Maybe Walter and September sacrifice themselves to make it happen.
