...and back in the room, she's telling Matt that he has to wake up or he'll die. So she can be in the dream and still be awake, while Matt is catatonic? Seriously, show, what the shit?
In the dream, Daphne tells Matt that she can't lose him -- she loves him. They embrace tenderly, and it's a nice moment but don't you think you should test-drive each other first? Actually, even though this has a rushed feel to it, I'm inclined to allow it. Seeing their affection, Angela tells Arthur that they were once like that...
...and then they're all in her office, as she continues that he loved her, and there's a part of him that still does, so now he's going to let her go. After she repeats her declaration, Arthur gets a resigned look on his face, and the handcuffs clatter to the floor...
...and back in the room, everyone regains consciousness and Matt's stomach is fine. He asks Daphne if that was really her in there, and she acknowledges that and affirms what she told him in the dream. Angela's voice wearily cuts in, and Matt goes to get a doctor...
...but out in the hall, he and Daphne run into the just-arriving Peter and Claire, and Matt, still miffed about having to follow a turtle around the desert, throws Peter against the wall as Claire tries to intervene. Peter tells Matt that it wasn't him, and Matt confirms this with a little mind mojo. Claire asks Matt where Angela is, and Matt's response is that she's awake. Claire does not point out that that's not what she asked, which makes me wonder if she's secretly no longer a teenager. That would make a certain relationship slightly more palatable, I'll admit.
Mohinder has inflicted more torture on this poor Morlock, and when he apologizes, the guy begs Mohinder to kill him. Mohinder silently injects him with something, so I'm guessing he's acceding to the request. Usually the acting would give me a clue, but...well, you know.
