Try, Try Again is an episode based on the "Fargo, don't touch that" plot gimmick. It works well, and adds the expected comedian element, but in the new partially-rebooted world of Eureka, we are forced to struggle to get to know our characters again.. The same people, but not the ones we know. They are harsher, there is less of the family (albeit an often dysfunctional one) feel to all interactions and we can't help but long for what we knew and what Jack has forgotten. A well written and nicely performed episode but while it worked as a piece of sci-fi, it didn't work as well as an episode of the season one Eureka that was so much fun.
