Must be me I thought it was good episode. What we thought was reality in truth was not. Cameron doing things out of Character- like smiling, making pancakes and parading around in a bikini were clues to a reversed reality.
I liked the episode, and I'm not even sure Cameron was totally out of character. Remember when the Asian chick came back and said about John and Cameron in the future: "He only listens to her. He spends all his time with her. It's sick." That gave me the feeling that perhaps they develop a relationship at some point. The fact that her chip was damaged could be part of it.
