One thing I like about unreasonable is its unique case.
Who else would have a consultant to help NASA evaluate whether two married astronauts are perfect for mission-critical together?
If you only focus on this, Season 2 Episode 16 will be great. Honestly, I was so surprised when the 20-minute marker had a murder!
Season 2 Episode 16 provides a puzzling case
Alec consulted NASA, but the details of the murder investigation were confusing and it was so cool.
I got a parody that Shel ordered to simulate a mock to mimic an emergency without telling anyone, but other than that, I found this situation difficult to follow.
It’s still fun. It’s just…puzzling.
I think Shel wants to prove that Andre and Selena aren’t married as happily as they thought they would, and their relationship will break down under pressure.
He was talking about stupid reasons. According to Alec, Shel committed this overly complicated crime because he was single and married happily to Selena and Andre.
Of course, besides almost killing Andre and then murdering BO to keep it quiet, he must have another way to express his feelings.
Who else thinks the solution is a bit obvious?
Ultimately, Shel is the lasting leader of the mission and proves guilty.
Once Bo passed away, Shel was actually the only person who could have been good or bad in Season 1 Episode 16.
He had to approve the simulation – no one else seemed to have a lot of power.
So, this is one of the easiest to resolve a case unreasonableHistory
The case is not the real focus, is it?
The astronaut’s plight is just a starting point for exploring the theme of adventure life.
A lot of unreasonable things have been done. Season 2 is full of theme plot Carpenter shut up – seize the day.
Phoebe’s entire arc this season has been her learning to give up her anxiety and embrace life. She escaped Alec’s job because she thought she would feel safer elsewhere, just had to go back when she grabbed her new boss and won her student job.
Instead, Alec’s arc has always been learning to take risks, rather than always risking his life.
After he jumped off before he rode a high-speed train, forcing the driver to slow down in Episode 2, Episode 6, Kylie promised to continue to survive and stop playing the game, but that wasn’t easy for him.
This time, Alec and everyone around him have learned an important lesson about following your heart before it’s too late.
Selena and Andre are the perfect couple.
They understand that marriage is the idea of making a commitment in good times and bad times, and despite all the adversity they have experienced, it still helps them move forward.
Everyone wants to be them – it’s an inspiration for two different couples.
Alec’s joke on Australia proves he needs to be with Rose
I thank Alec for the joke that he couldn’t get Rose BBQ sauce while in Australia.
Surprisingly, a man who is so good in neuroscience can’t figure out the time zone, but I laughed anyway.
Australia’s leading position in the U.S. time zone is so far away that it’s hard to figure out when it’s a certain time in one country to another, and Alec’s dilemma shows that.
Although it wasn’t realistic for him to jump on a plane to Australia at the last minute (he even knows what part of the country/continental rose?), I liked the last scene because it illustrates the theme of posing a risk to your heart service.
Wait… Did Simon and Phoebe kiss in Season 2 Episode 16?
I either forgot it or blocked it, so if one of you kind souls can let me comment and tell me what the plot it is, I can re-watch it.
Seriously, it must have happened a long time ago because I don’t remember it at all.
Honestly, I wish Simon was interested in Phoebe and was too shy to ask her.
I wouldn’t guess their embarrassment in Season 2 Episode 16 was a kiss, not in Simon who liked Phoebe and was worried she didn’t want him back.
These two are cute but awkward phases of their relationship and I don’t mind seeing it. I also like Rizwan’s semi-jealousy towards Simon.
Hopefully they won’t separate the couple for the drama before they get the proper start!
Alec’s speech is cool, but I’m not sure what it has to do with anything
Like many irrational plots, Season 2 Episode 17 begins with a speech in Alec classroom.
I like his speech. This is a great example of how marketing works and how it can have unexpected consequences.
However, I’m not sure what’s going on with this situation.
Usually, Alec’s lectures are directly integrated into the case, but this time, it seems like something interesting, and that’s all.
In you, the irrational fanatic.
Is this situation too predictable? Is the case collocation meaningful?
