Note: Full spoilers for the episode follow.
This week, Cole fought timespace, the terrifying (and very strong) Pallid Man and his goons, solar flares, and his own conscience, all to find out from a dead man that the so-called "Night Room" can be traced via very specialized equipment. I enjoyed the journey, but I was a little letdown by the payoff (or lack there of).
Cole and Cassandra discovered that the scientist who Goines remembered escaping The Pallid Man's bloodbath is actually Dr. Henri Toussaint, a former colleague of Cassandra's. She's shocked to discover he was killed in Haiti shortly after they worked together, but Cole has a time machine and a point in time where he knows exactly where Henri can be found. In fact, even he wasn't dead, it would probably be easier for Cole to find him in time than geographically, which is one the things that makes this show fun. It was also nice to see Cassandra teasing Cole about his not using utensils to eat Chinese food, not to mention his lack of experience with food being delivered to one's house. The scene where she has Cole believing for a moment that a real "General" is involved in the making of said take-out was truly delightful. Aaron Stanford and Amanda Schull are just perfect together as two differently damaged people clinging to each other through an impossible situation.
