I forget everything about this episode except for Rose McIver's hilarious acting.

I dunno, I didn't think she necessarily did the best job of playing someone else (maybe because we never saw the original brain owner) on this one, but the lines and situations with the clients were pretty good.

RIP Original Major's Personality. Sweet till the end.

Scattered thoughts about this:
* Her killer was totally Seamus Zelazny Harper from Andromeda, hahaha.

* The bit with the sketch artist was funny, but it also made me miss the Goth IT guy.

* I love the lawyer and the anchor guy, and having them team up was fantastic.

I could watch several more episodes of Rose McIver making men feel awkward/turn on by verbally abusing them.

Haha, "AK Fortesan".

Murder of the week plot seemed strangely unfinished by the end of the episode. Are we going to see that come back up later? (Maybe relating to zombie politician?)

Also, kinda disappointed they didn't follow up on Major's buddy because he had to have a million questions one the crisis with Major was over. They'll probably get to it later, but I can't imagine dude having waited that long.

Very much enjoy how turned on the sketch artist was. That was a delight.
