Following on from the last episode the team head to the anomaly that leads to the 'predator future'. As they prepare to go through the anomaly at Christine's old facility opens; Becker and Sarah head to investigate that leaving Abby, Connor and Danny to look for Helen in the future. Becker and Sarah find themselves confronting giant insects that have come through the anomaly but that is nothing compared to the problems the others are facing. The catch up with Helen and learn of her plan; she intends to travel through the anomalies to the time early man was evolving and kill off humanity before it can even begin. They follow her to the distant past where they have a run in with a trio of young velociraptors. Connor is injured and Abby stays with him while Danny pursues Helen through another anomaly; if humanity is to be saved Helen must be stopped before she can poison our ancient ancestors.
This was a gripping series finale that wrapped up the 'Helen Cutter' plot arc but raised more questions as it finished with three characters apparently trapped in the past. Before we get to the cliff-hanger ending there are plenty of great moments; Becker and Sarah's run-in with the giant insects was exciting and it was great to finally learn exactly what Helen was planning. I liked how they caught up with her in the remains of the ARC building and her ultimate fate was satisfying. Juliet Aubrey's appearances as Helen will be missed in future seasons. Given that the series has killed off major characters and had others leave the ultimate fate of Abby, Connor and Danny is far from obvious for anybody watching for the first time. Overall this was an exciting conclusion to the season that will leave most viewers keen to discover what happens in Series Four.
