FAN RECAP

Fan Episode Reviews (15)

A series of messages left by Adam Baylin gets Kyle curious.

9.1

By Kametsou, Sep 29, 2007

Right from the beginning of this episode, I could tell that this was going to be a good one. Josh is talking with Kyle about girls and dating, when suddenly, Andy pops along and says the following: "remember this moment". Kyle has a vision and sees three objects (a fishbowl, a postcard and a book). Words in another language are written on the postcard. However, for once, Kyle does not understand it. When his vision is over, he turns towards the door, where Jessi has just entered. Next, Kyle turns over to Josh and says, "something bad is about to happen". As soon as Kyle finishes his sentence, an earthquake hits the small coffee shop. Luckily, all of them are safe when it stops.

Throughout the rest of the episode, Kyle goes over to Tom Foss, asking him questions about what the postcard really says. Foss doesn't know, either, so Kyle tries looking for himself.

By the end of the episode, Kyle has another vision and remembers a moment when Adam Baylin told him to "remember this moment". As Baylin was telling Kyle that, he had a book in his had and Kyle had noticed that he had slipped a CD inside.

The next day, Kyle finds the book that Baylin had placed the CD in. Much to his surprise, the CD remains inside of the book. Kyle quickly removes it and heads back home to play it on his computer.

Strangely, the CD only plays some robotic language, but Kyle knows that Baylin wanted him to think harder. Spending another whole day of thinking, Kyle finally finds out how to play the CD: he must be under water.

The CD plays a message-recording by Adam Baylin, congratulating him on getting this far. He tells Kyle that this is just a "simple test" and that things will get harder as he continues to seek his purpose.

Kyle's next plan is to try and translate that the postcard is written in. After another day of working hard, Kyle manages to realize that the text is written in sound waves. As Kyle is working on translating it, he recieves a text message from Foss, saying that he "needs to get going and that they will meet again". When Kyle finally manages to translate the text, it reads "Don't Trust Foss". Kyle rushes over to the warehouse, where he expects Foss to be, but everything, including all of Foss' belongings have vanished. The episode then ends.

In my opinion, I thought that this was one of the most creative Kyle XY episodes yet. It really had me thinking the entire episode, which is really the purpose of the show. Like most episodes of Kyle XY, it left off at a cliff-hanger, which is usually always a good thing, because it leaves the viewer asking questions. I'm really looking forward to the next episode. All of a sudden, this series is beginning to get interesting.moreless

By tvfanatic91, Jul 31, 2007

Well first off I liked Andy and Kyle's conversation about Josh. It totally blew my thought of her liking Josh. But later when Josh and her were in the car she started to flirt again. I like that couple and I think soon it might happen. Just my Kyle-sense. 8) Oh I can't wait Lori on Open Mic Night. Wow clever power. He can relive his memories. So 'Remember this moment' is all I have to say. Adam is very clever as well. He sent an under water message to Kyle. Wow Emily has a daughter. I didn't know that. Whoa! Declan and Jessi kissed. And Lori isn't that bad at singing. Oh wow. Don't Trust Foss. What a cliffhanger. Why would Foss be his bodygaurd if he doesn't trust him?moreless

i like this episode.there's nothing much to say but it did reveal some secrets and most importantly,adam bailen's message at the end about foss.this sure leads to greats upcoming events.

i love josh and andy!seriously,they were really cute in this episode.it was very well written their storyline this time.in fact,this was the most interesting pasrt of this week's episode in my opinion.they're really belong to each other.

lori experienced a tragic moment this time.she was strong,true but she was still touched seeing daclyn and jessie together.nevertheless,this would make her even stronger and honestly,April Matson was really good doing lori's part!

i don't have much to say about kyle's discovery of his new ability.sure it's interesting.they're really smart of bringing adam bailen in kyl's life.it becomes more interesting.

can't wait for next week!moreless

The show gets better and better.

8.5

By Leppie, Jul 19, 2007

While I found the first season to be tedious and cheesy, the second season has definitely been more interesting. While the mythology is still kind of corny, it is much less predictable.

I'm curious where the writers are taking this show with the Jessi and Stephen. While I don't really like Jessi, she certainly gives me the creeps, making me wonder whether she'll randomly strangle someone again. Stephen's new job is also exciting as we'll see how everything is going to collide soon.

As far as the relationships go, I certainly adore Josh's the most. Andy is a fantastic character and the two actors have great chemistry. We all saw their relationship coming but it was still fun to watch.

Next week we'll check in to see what Krycek...errr Foss... is up to!moreless

  (Josh is surprised and disgusted by the idea)
  Josh: What? With you?
  Andy: Well, if you can't do it with me, how you gonna do it with a real girl?
  (Josh laughs sheepishly and Andy is suddenly embarrassed by what she just said)
  Andy: I mean... you know what I mean.

- Andy: Let me ask you a question. Why did you ask her out? It can't be just because of her boobs. (Josh doesn't answer.) Oh my God! It was!

  Nicole: Hey, you guys okay?
  Josh: Awesome. Our little alien can predict the future. Huh, you should see the Rack, it's not the place I would call earthquake friendly.
  Nicole: Then what are you doing home?
  Josh: Checking out my ride for damage.

  Josh: Kittens are nice, Dova's… Well hopefully she's not nice.
  Kyle: I thought you two were just study partners for biology lab.

  (Andy laughs and joins in the conversation)
  Andy: Boys… Life is not like a rap video. Having a pimped out car doesn't guarantee your hand gets anywhere near her bra.
