Tahani also got a little more to do this time around, attempting to deflect attention from Simone's revelation with her whiteboard. "I know Sting!" made us laugh.
I was also feeling sorry for Michael given Eleanor's reactions, but I'm glad they managed to make his magic work for them.
One thing that I was thinking about though is that, since his memory was wiped, all of Chidi's progress should have been wiped out. He seems to have recovered it awfully well in this experiment given that he's been awfully decisive and we've seen a decided lack of stomach aches.
I was amused by "the most boring breakup ever" but also felt sorry for his disappointment in not having a soul mate. But I think that it did make something clear, which is that while in the first experiment he and Eleanor were both told that they were soulmates, both apparently also felt the need for someone else. Whereas it's less that Simone doesn't believe in soulmates as much as she doesn't feel that gap in herself that they did. She seems very much "on her own" in the neighborhood, roped into being with others more because the team manipulates her into doing it than because she feels the need. This independence also allows her to assume that it's all in her mind for the first few weeks and later for her to step back and observe everything that's going on.
I have my doubts that Brent is actually going to apologize for his own behavior, but I'm guessing that cutting him off at that moment will result in a hung jury sort of situation and there may be yet another reboot.
