I just marathoned that not too long ago. Stephen and Nick talking = sex. Connor grew on me a lot over the series, though Helen is loathsome and evil and vile. I adore Abby, though I am puzzled by why she keeps answering the door in her undies. I was also puzzled by how one change millions of years ago could so specifically affect the existence of one person, but still, it's awfully fun when it gets twisty and weird like that!
