Not just 'cuz I love him so much (which I <i>do</i> - I love you, Boyd!), but because it felt so pasted on. Like, JW and the gang thought, "well, we've gotta wrap it up and give 'em a big surprise, so here's this!"  However, there was something else that took me out of the show entirely. It wouldn't matter to anyone else, but since I lived in Tucson for 10 years, the idea of a Tucson Institute of Technology just killed it for me. What? Fox couldn't use the name University of Arizona? They do techie things there (they <i> did</i> lead the Mars Phoenix Mission with NASA) - I would've bought it if Bennett had been a student there. /rant.  I was pretty put off by the Boyd reveal.
