The plot thickens

Another satisfying and interesting Eureka, with nice story development alongside some exciting moments & good laughs. Unfortunately, there was also quite a bit of heartache. Poor Jack just can't get a break. That end shot of him standing all alone on the dance floor was almost too much. Also, I'm turning into a sap for Jack & Allison's flirting. He's just so damn cute around her and it's terribly endearing. Now I predict that Jack's ex will go back to LA, Zoe will stay in Eureka, and slowly but inexorably Jack & Allison's relationship will deepen until they realize they have to be together.

Something about Beverly's last scene, when she cleaned the passports & money out of her safe then called someone requesting a debrief, made her quite a bit more interesting to me. Henry's questions during their session about Beverly's relationship to Kim, and Allison's decision to pointedly dismiss her recommendation about Henry starting at Global Dynamics, seem to have seriously thrown Beverly for a loop. Is the jig up??

Now I'm curious to see how that develops, and if the people Beverly is working for have any knowledge of Kevin the wonderboy and his strange relationship to the artifact. That situation, of course, can only bring Allison & Stark closer together, making things that much more difficult for Jack.
