This episode really brought depth to the characters of Ian and Poppy. To see them in their youth as struggling kids and then seeing them meet for the first time brought meaning to their whole existence. I wouldn't mind this type of backstory for all the rest of the cast of characters. Good job to the writers for getting me emotionally involved in the story and to the casting director. The girl that played young Poppy looked so much like the actress Charlotte Nicdao that at first I thought it was her daughter. I knew that when the episode opened up with the classic 80s video game graphics that it was going to be a great episode.
