Observed Data

VR: Sydney tells Duncan what the levels of VR are which are what we see in the opening credits. Morgan shows up in all the permutations of Syd's VR experience, further enforcing the idea that VR picks up on your subconscience and that Morgan was definitely in hers.

Miscellaneous: Duncan admits to idolizing Syd's father. He describes the relationship between the Bloom sisters as being one based on one-upsmanship.

David Shaler described the episode:

There was no VR sequence between Syd and Nora, and there was no mention of her dad being with the Committee. This episode doesn't look like it was redone at all to reflect the new direction the show was taking, maybe because they never intended it to be seen, but it gives you a really good idea of how the writers intended the show to be like originally.
