Super Sweet.  They continue to pour out of theoretical science.  This is the first time any show has explained the 4 dimension so well.  Futurama got it started, but this show has gotten the concept out in such away you can imagine a tesseract become into play.  Each segment of the differentiating times is explained perfectly in this show.  At least the first episode, which is what I'm talking about.  Didn't know the second episode was already leaked.  It has not shyed away from it's science fiction roots and is just magnifascent. 

I read your post some hours ago but stopped reading when I noticed you started talking about the episode. :/ Some spoiler bars could help for those that haven't seen the episode yet, you know, specially when we talk about episodes that haven't aired yet.

About the episode:

I think this episode was about different realities instead of showing a tessaract: a cube in a fourth dimension.

The episode started tame but very crazy! Then it upped the comedy with the Giant Head Testicle dude from the Fourth Dimension.

Poor Einstein. xD "I will mess with time." lol

Yeah sorry about spoilers, I'll flash that from now on, thanks.  More spoilers ahead...

About the segmented realities.  When I mention a tesseract, I meant that they way they explained the 4th dimension, you know how a cube is this changing thing that keeps no shape, but is still considered a cube, the way they portrayed their time separated through 2 possibilities, is how one can imagine a tesseract without actually seeing it.  In one segment, it could be stationary, but in another segmented reality, it could be moving, which explains the overlapping in vertices of a tesseract. 

As for what was really happening to them, to me, it was a representation of what happens when your actual time stream is fractured.  It wasn't mulitiple worlds, it was their own timeline, separated from all normal time, corrupted in a way where their place in reality is split.  Think of a light source being seperated by a prism, and each separation is that of them not following the normalcy of the light ray, which was why they weren't able to combine and be put in place with normal time.  In the end, Rick was able to fix their reality, and fit it back into place like a puzzle into their normal time stream.  It's like Inception, but for realities instead of dreams.   Possibly, of course.

"I will mess with time," crying and whimpering.
