Under The Dome: Season 3 Theories

Season 3, Episode 5: Alaska

I decided to just skip episode four, The Kinship, because any theories I might have had would be gone, since I watched episode five right after. And there was also a lot of sex in that episode. Now I am home from vacation, so do expect a weekly update.

•••

My favorite part was when Hunter fell off of the roof, I am not going to lie. But we will get to that later.

Let us start off with the whole "Alaska" thing, alright?

Understandably, I get that people do go to Alaska to find artifacts. However, it was kind of random. Alaska, of all places? Why not Illinois or something?

Whatever, I got interested when it was stated that it was like a infection... Like it spreads. And Christine is obviously the leader.

So, like they showed in that old time video of the woman committing suicide, and the others following her, it really got me thinking.

I mean, everybody is already following Christine, besides Julia and Big Jim and Joe.

And then, Norrie just snaps, and then the old Norrie is back and doesn't follow Christine.

It's kind of like the Black Plague, don't you think?

Anyway, I realized that when those Doctors with that ungodly large needle said that Big Jim was clean, I thought that since he was defying Christine, he wasn't infected.

So, if you are defying Christine, maybe you're not infected? Maybe the cure is to snap out of it? I'm not so sure.

Anyway, with Julia discovering the whole Action thing, and telling Barbie, he should have known something was wrong right then and there. Instead, he and Julia have some words about Ava (which, I think Julia is totally not making a big deal out of this, because Barbie and Ava technically weren't even together). Then he nearly hurts Julia!

I was really disappointed in Barbie. That was when I lost the small amount of respect for him that I had left ever since the season began.

And the best scene was probably when Hunter fell off a roof.

The old Norrie was back, and she was the best right then and there.

Then Hunter goes and says that she pushed him off the freakin roof!? What a lie!

Anyway, the last we see of Norrie and Joe is them being surrounded by infected citizens and Junior.

I mean, Junior was doing so well. Nearly everybody forgot about him and Angie and what he did to her in the first season, and then he goes and ruins it. Shame.

They won't get out of that circle until Christine returns- which could take a long time.

Of course, many other things happen in this episode (like, a lot of romantic things), but I don't give a crap about Ava and Barbie's baby, because I hate the both of them.

Anyway, the experiment.

Big Jim is the control group- he is not infected and will never be infected.

Christine, the infected one, is the opposite.

The goal of the experiment, I believe, is to see the difference between those who are infected and those who aren't.

I think that maybe the dome is supposed to protect them.

Maybe it's all survival of the fittest, from the preview of what will happen this season.

Maybe it happened so there was enough people to start a whole new human race, with a lot of genetic difference. That way, the human race could start over and such.

I don't know, but I know one thing for sure.

Julia and Joe and Norrie and Big Jim (and Joe's dog, who Big Jim claims as his own) seem to be the only sane ones left in the dome.
