With Tricia Helfer guest starring next episode, I wonder is this is going to become the new series where former stars of other scifi series will make special appearances, like SG1 did for some time?
I got the impression from the bit in the warehouse when he was asking for the painting that it somehow interferes with technology or jams radio waves. Not sure though because that was the one thing I didn't watch closely, as I was busy reading ENWorld.
They replayed the first episode today so I watched a bit closer with the technology. Anarchonistic says it best. I can only imagine the warehouse was built before they considered elevators, except that we see some large pieces, so maybe the roof opens up. Still doesn't explain the zip line and how he managed to get the Edison cart to move without two people in the front seat
Thought the zip line was a good touch to get from one location to another in the Warehouse as it is a maze, but a basket would have been better. You would think there would be cat walks too.
The video phone I can deal with as I can see it being secure communications.
