Didn't like the finale.
Really crappy writing and acting probably the worst episode of the series so far. Characters are wooden. Loved that they killed off the token african-american woman, ugh.
My planning mind was saying, how on earth could a facility be zoned inside a city that was designed to go nuclear if it ever lost power? Stuff like that bugs me. Just completely disconnected from reality and really easy to remedy. Just have that facility located out in the country somewhere, like you know where it would normally be in real life.
You would think that a facility that technologically advanced would go into "power-saving mode" a little earlier than an hour before it lost fuel. Also, it doesn't explain the main scientist character who's a complete contradiction. Why is he even researching cures when he knows he has 3 days of power left and the facility goes sky-high? He seemed like a normal rational guy, why didn't he tell the stowaways about the power issues at the beginning? Or if he is maniacal and wanted to kill them with him all along, why does he suddenly change his mind after no more influential arguments from the Cop? There wasn't a game changing event for him to release them, he just does. Just a completely unbelievable character and sequence of events.
Also, I hate TV-land/movie-land computers. Why can't we just have a regular lab with computing terminals instead of some completely fictitious mainframe and operating system.
