Speculations (SPOILERS - obviously)

Jason plays Peter, an FBI agent who investigates the murder of an archaeologist in Jerusalem. While doing this, he uncovers a 2000 year old conspiracy. The event series was filmed on location in Jerusalem, before the production had to move to Croatia and New Mexico.

I knew Joshua v2.0 was bad news! Rooting for Red and hoping Joshua gets his just rewards! Does that make me bad?

In that case, I'm bad as well...

How do we know that Emma really is dead? Maybe the pics are fake, and it's all part of the conspiracy....? :mrgreen:

Well, it definitely makes you an animal lover . . . not so much kids. But we've already discussed that. :D

Josh II is definitely devious. We saw a whole different side of him riding in the car with his head out the window like a puppy and in the restaurant drinking the soda. But, alas, it was all an act. He is a little devil. thunder, you may be on the right path with your Christ/Anti-Christ theory.

I'm very confused after ep.3. Need to see much more of the series in order to speculate properly. I wonder why they went first with Josh1.0, if Josh2.0 is clearly much more appropriate for the cult's plan? Maybe Josh1's genes were more "perfect" than Josh2's? But that part of the plan failed... And is Fay dead? She got a pretty nasty headbang on the washbasin, enough to kill...

I was hoping Margrove was a good guy. Apparently not. Maybe he is an insider spy (wishful thinking...). The scarf he uses made me think he was on the good side, because it has red (my nutty theory that everyone suspicious wearing something red was on the good side is in tatters).

And what is a falafel, the thing Golan asks for at a kiosk to eat? Would like to try it...

Falafel is some kind of deep fried chickpeas based balls usually served with salad and pita. Quite good. had it a couple of weeks ago. :D

I don't think Faye is dead, I have seen her with a black eye in some promos.

Described like that falafel seems delicious. Had never heard about this food before. I wonder where in Lisbon I may find it... Will look for it. I take it it's a Middle East typical food. Won't be easy to find then. Well, I gained something from Dig already, the quest to find falafel! May not be one of the precious stones, but it's food, and that is always very appealing to Portuguese stomachs
Thanks Thunder

And, if they are, indeed, clones, what about the nature/nurture argument; it appears that these two boys were raised in the same fashion, yet they are fundamentally different in character. Clearly, I've watched too much Orphan Black and it's influencing my take on this.

Any speculation on the characters' names? (Or have I missed it?)

Peter, Debbie, (Deborah), Josh, Yussef (Joseph), Golan?

Maybe Yussef is Josh's father? :mrgreen:

Or maybe I should think about that some more. That's interesting, fruitbat.

It was Debbie's name that struck me because I think Ted called her "Deborah". (And there I go, assuming the more traditional, Biblical spelling, instead of "Debra".)

I think the reason that Josh I was so nice was that Debbie was his nanny and that Josh II was not so nice because Fay was his.

Oh nice theory Helen. Got to agree - if Fay were my nany - I'd be a psychopath too!

If Fay raised him, that explains a lot...
