No they leave with like 12 minutes left to sunrise and get there with a couple of minutes left. So they only needed to go 6 km per hour or about 4 mph to get there when they did. They were going faster than that but got a little lost on the way. Seems right to me.

Here is what happened, I guarantee you. They have no idea where the boat is, and then on the screen it says "5 minutes to sunrise." Then the Mexican daughter calls them because she saw the video feed from the blond girl, and she tells them where the boat is. Then they say it's "1 kilometer away from here."

So somehow they travel 1 kilometer (while lost, mind you) and find this hidden boat. And they get onboard and rescue their friends and all that stuff that happened... in 5 minutes? Totally preposterous.

Even if you don't pay attention to that part of it... the ending was totally stupid (yet again!) and completely rushed. The people are in mortal danger from some enemies/demons/spiritual things/etc etc etc and YET AGAIN they manage to escape at the very last second possible. And then the show is over. It's so stupid. I think I just keep watching to see what stupid thing is going to happen at the end of the next episode. They are all totally ridiculous.

Dude I know, that's what makes this show good.

FYI when she radioed them and told them it was 1 km west, she was directing them from the location of the Magus, not from their dingy. They had already traveled a good ways from when they left 7 minutes earlier. They were heading in the general direction but didn't know exactly where to go until she radioed them.

Dumb episode.

Why did I keep watching this show???

When checking the TV Guide Channel last night, I noted that "The River" was on. I quickly hit "Page Down" to see what else was on. I was hoping I could find re-runs of something like "Mr. Ed", but had no luck.

There's only one episode left. It probably won't get picked up for a 2nd season.

And it looks like the finale is some sort of zombie/human-testing-gone-wrong apocalypse??? Like that hasn't been done a billion times before. Yawn.

This episode started off promising enough and was decent. Kinda freaky too. But then as usual the ending is stupid and totally rushed. Why do they build everything up all episode long, and then rush it at the end in like 5 minutes or less? So dumb.

At least there is only one more episode left...

I thought that was the last episode?

roundhouse wrote: That's what I had thought too, but apparently the finale is next week.

Grrrrrr....

Well thank goodness that show is mercifully, finally, over.

At least they presumably all died at the end.
