<blockquote>That was a stupid scene with no other family member present.</blockquote>
There were NO other family members to be present, it is stated that Dr. Matheson did not have any relatives (other than the son).
The first investigator <i>suffered a heart attack while attending one of Silver's shows and the post-mortem concluded
the heart attack was the result of natural causes</i>. Sigourney’s character is said to have <i>a rare and long-standing vascular condition which could be the cause of her unexpected illness and sudden death</i>.
It seems a bit of a coincidence that both deaths were related to heart diseases. I wouldn't have thought twice about it until the last part of the movie, when Silver/his assistant sends a guy to beat up Dr. Buckley in the bathroom. After seeing the lengths they were capable to go, I'm not sure anymore if Silver himself (or his team) wouldn't cause the death of anyone who would get too close to expose him as fraud. Silver makes clear that they keep track of their <i>enemies</i> (even having access to their medical records -Dr. Matheson's son condition-) so if they knew that someone had heart problems it could be easy to fake a natural death that wouldn't be detected in a post-mortem.
7. It's a photo album of the men she had sex with. The first picture is her mother's boyfriend, the one who started all.
8. Not bad writing. We can assume his girlfriend (Sarah?) rejected him after he told her he vas HIV positive. After that, he might think/know that having another relationship will be difficult, unless it's someone who is as broken as him. Erica being infected too, she's a good candidate to be his "soulmate". In his crazy mind, it was an ideal ending, they could be together, he would take care of her, and she would be with him. But everything takes a bad turn when she tries to escape, and the mother committing suicide (possibly because she was infected because of Franki's blood transfusions and, of course, Erica's plan of infecting as many men as possible). At that point Franki had been rejected by Erica and she was now guilty not only of infecting him but also of his mother's suicide.
After Cecilia takes her final vows and loses consciousness (likely due to being drugged), she is taken to the underground lab where the procedure is carried out. In that room, there is an obstetric examination chair, and the equipment shown in the lab suggests that artificial insemination was performed there.
They tried it so hard to make it like it was Booby until the end. Baseballs falling around when the "unknown" killer was chasing Kathleen in the old house's cellar (Bobby was a pitcher) and the most obvious one, when everyone is strapped and at the table, when the killer goes for Evan he says "You're going to break the Internet", a reference to the beginning of the film where he brags about the fight with the other team's dude and saying that that "Shit would have broken the Internet" if it had been recorded. Only the people in the car at that moment could have known about what Evan said, and Bobby was there.
Did anyone notice that Iain Adair looks a lot like Davis McCardle? There's a picture of both Kenneth and Iain hanging at the bar where the eyes, nose and ear are extremely similar to Davis. I was wondering if he was his real father (instead of Kenneth), which would have been an extra sick plot twist for this episode.
I felt that more than technology, they were criticizing the overflow (and the cult of fandom) of true-crime documentaries. It's fun how there's lot of references between the episodes of this season (Loch Henry is introduced in S06E01), and to things from past seasons (the song "Anyone who knows what love is" from Fifteen Million Merits playing in the background when Joan enters the bar on S06E01, Mike Callow from The National Anthem referenced in a poster in S06E02, Waldo referenced in S06E02 -news tickers-,...).
<blockquote>Loved the way she said: ComPUTA. So funny.</blockquote>
Actually, it was <i>"quam-puta"</i>, a joke on the quantum computer.
Or Bioshock.
It was kind of ridiculous to see Reeves running around and covering his face with the jacket during half of every fighting scene...
