Yesterday Again

Ok so this episode,PRLR "Yesterday Again", is bugging me. How/where did that deja vu warp that Carter was floating through on his Red Armored Vehicle come from? Was it designed to have the simulation in the first place? The first time Carter takes off to rescue his team he leaves behind his jacket which causes his team to be killed(though it was really Olympius who hits them with the rescuebird) until the second time when he has to start over again and realizes his jacket is there and saves the day. So what was it about the jacket or plot that made him realize he was doing something wrong? And no this is not my first time watching this episode.

Yeah the jacket thing made no sense. The jacket from the previous timeline shouldn't have still been there.

That's what makes it a mystery.

Ms. Fairweather never established that the Mobile Armor Vehicle had any kind of temporal distortion technology, and Carter was confirmed not to have initiated any precognitive abilities due to the jacket's presence on the rock. He traveled through time, plain and simple.

And we call Eric the Quantum Ranger...

We know he traveled in time.... But the Jacket was left before he went back to the past. Why was it still there when he repeated the day?

I think they had an idea of whay they wanted to do. But the jacket part was just
poorly executed. Its a shame because its a good episode that was something different.

That scene never made sense to me either. I wish they would have come up with a better idea for Carter realizing he was repeating the day.

Its still one of my favorite each episodes and why I love lightspeed so much. Plus time travel plots are cool to me. I just wish it was a two parter. They would have had time for the jacket scene to make more sense.

Sounds like a Star Trek title. And the episode was very Star Trek like in a lot of ways. With the time travel plot. One of my favorite episodes as well.
