The Tier plot with Rev and Harper was the best part of this episode, offering some compelling drama and further "Tier wrestles with human morality and self-sacrifice in helping tortured, frail boy genius Harper" but the central A-plot was a bad self-insert fanfic, only instead of a ~super cool~ Gary Stu who gets to save the day and get the girl, it's a "sexy/cool neocyberpunk chick gets mad after self-insert character dies 'tragically'/robot-robot wuxia wire-fight". I mean, Lexa looked cool, if a little too cliché in design. The concept could have made for a bad sci-fi film, but had zero space to develop here.
Cobb's physique is just ridiculous. I bet he could legitimately take handgun bullets to the pecs and it not have them hit any internal organs. If that's your thing, he's wearing a net shirt most of the episode, and is shirtless and strapped down the rest of the time. Other than that, it's easily skippable.
