- TriviaThe word, "willsmith," is used as an insult for a man who goes above and beyond for a woman who loves someone else. This episode dropped 16 days before the incident at the Oscars where Will Smith slapped Chris Rock, and a full 19 months before Jada Pinkett Smith published her memoir. In it, she told the world she was still in love with the late Tupac Shakur, and that her marriage to Will had been over for 7 years.

- Crazy creditsThere's an extra scene during the end credits where we see one of Luke's (Kevin Bigley) G-rated dreams.
Nathan (Robbie Amell) and Ingrid (Allegra Edwards) now live together in Lakeview, with Nathan under the impression that Ingrid has died and unaware that she is faking it, using a haptic suit. Nora (Andy Allo) has taken a leave of absence and has been drawn, by her father into world of the Ludds. She begins a relationship with Matteo (Paulo Costanzo) one of the leaders of the group.
I want to stress, before I get to the criticism, that I really didn't hate this. I still like the chemistry between Amell and Allo and generally the show is too amiable and good natured to make me actively dislike it.
But it's not funny enough, with this season providing even fewer laughs than the first. I really do feel that is because it's beholden to this plot structure that is constantly getting in the way and that is leaned into even heavier in this second run. With the story expanding from just being about who killed Nathan, to being more about political corruption and a detour to live with the Luddites that's abandoned as soon as it's started. I don't care about any of that. I care about the central couple; I even care about Ingrid as Allegra Edwards has done such an excellent job of explaining why the character is the way she is. Tell me about those with some jokes about the Internet and bring the Nathan and Nora slowly together, that's all I'm after.
I mean, I'm going to watch season three, I can tell you that now, but it's more out of grudging completionism rather than any genuine admiration.
