In what would normally be considered a “filler” episode, Eureka shows us why that moniker isn’t worthy: Friendly Fire takes a short break from major story arc to explore what the show’s recent changes mean to the characters, imbuing them with a depth and complexity we’ve come to expect. Also: Wil Wheaton finally gets the opportunity to play a non-douche, and he kills it, delivering an awesome performance bring both his inner geek and inner professional to bear. Awesome!
