for me, i think the basis of this show is the main character\'s inability to make a moral decision despite the obvious consequences of his actions. for example, he designs a children\'s game that promotes global annihilation? yikes! and in the end, despite knowing the rule of the apple in Eden, he decides to indulge... or so we are led to believe.

the whole redirection of \"knowledge\" seemed more of a device to keep the story going than it did as an integral part of what was going on, though Dann certainly kept it all tied together wonderfully.

there were a lot of themes at play here, ranging from ethics and morals, to psychology and sanity, to even the theme of death, which is said or implied throughout the show. &nbsp;overall, i really enjoyed this one. it was a quick listen that moved along at a good pace and held me til the very end. i especially like when an episode has some moral dilemma at its core and this one delivered that in full.<br>
