It’s a love fest on the latest Under the Dome.

For example, this week, Julia, under very tense circumstances, declared her love for Barbie.

So yeah, not really buying any of that noise.

But Im about to contradict myself.

It also helps that they are also both as cute as a button.

This week, Norrie and Joe saved poor Hunter from Evas Kevorkian overture of assisted suicide.

So how about the Borg Dome?

This Dome collective provided a palpable threat to our heroes, something that really didnt exist last season.

She just about succeeded except for Julia, Jim, Norrie, and Joe.

This week, Christine grew a little overconfident and failed twice.

Abby to commit suicide.

Christine was the one being manipulated for once and Sam shived her.

I guess Sams victory will have to just be a moral one.

She was also spurned by Barbie and was heartbroken because Barbie chose Eva (three weeks!).

But she was not defeated and approached Jim at episodes end to team up and bring down Christine.

And, oh yeah, we learned the origin of the dome.

When Christine touched the egg, she triggered the activation of the dome.

So that revelation is pretty darn big and made Eva and Christine even more important.

Let see if they remain so or are quickly forgotten like every character reintroduced in season two.

Things are getting pretty interesting in Chesters Mill despite some forced melodrama so lets call this week a win.
