Poor Al, anxious and yelling at the whole staff who scattered Ziggy's components all over the Control Room... I almost wished GTFW somehow managed to tell him that Sam wouldn't need his assistance at all during this relaxing leap!
Wonderful idea indeed. And considering what seems to be on store for next week (cf. Epilogue) I guess WE ALL needed a break!
RATING: 8.75

I would rate THE PICNIC a 7 (This was a pretty good story. It was worth reading.)
I liked the idea of Sam having a break from all the leaping he endures, poor Al not be able to get in touch with him. But it all ended happily anway. Great story!
RATING: 7.0

I didn't know what to expect from this episode after reading last week that Sam requested a "day off," so I was pleasantly surprised. This had an almost "Mirror Image" feel to it, and I suspect that that was what MJ and Eleiece had in mind when they co-wrote it: something a little bit... "different" than we're used to.
(On another note: next week looks to be a whopper of a story, just from the leap-in alone. Perhaps it wasn't a coincidence that this "vacation" story is a lead-in to the big "February Sweeps" event... the "calm before the storm" indeed!)
RATING: 9.25
