Sorry for being a tad late, I was sort of sick earlier, but I did just finish it, and let me say, it is a continuum in the idea that the show just keeps getting better and better.
Everything that was great here, everything that really exceeded expectation can be said in one word; “Doe”. The episode was wonderful, and it took a break from the hassle of the thrills to slow down and let us hear a bit of dodging around answers. Risky move? Yes, but Doe pulls it off wonderfully. He is written to perfection, and right up to his final moment, immediately likeable. John, too, had a few good moments here, and manages himself just I would hope; not too depressed and serious, not too careless, either. The personalities of all involved are spot on.
My favorite moments were the interaction, and exchange of lines, in the middle of the episode about John not pursuing his wife. That, and the actual encounter with Helen, were two of the great moments of the episode. It was suspenseful, as the other episodes, but this time it was a much more emotionally propelled suspense, and hit hard at the humanity of the show.
The opening, and the late scenes with John and his new daughter were some of my favorite scenes, if not technically the best. Him dropping the photo was a great act of showing how he may be a bit more apt to move forward, and the opening was an interesting prospect that he actually half enjoyed his life, as it was now. Will that be further used?
Overall, an absolutely stunning go-around in an altogether great show. I loved every minute of this episode, and it is really coming to the forefront of things currently playing, movies or TV, on MR.

Very good episode, has a Matrix-esque feel to it that I think is a good fit for this show.
