The Edge of Beyond

Nitcentral's Bulletin Brash Reflections: ReBoot: Season Three: The Edge of Beyond

The search for Bob brings the Saucy Mare and her crew to the Edge Of Beyond. When AndrAIa is poisoned by a web creature, the race is on to find the antidote, and Matrix must rely on the mysterious Web Surfr to lead them through the nightmare realms and hidden terrors of the Web--in which they discover they are not alone.

When AndrAIa is assaulted by the infant web creature, it is the size of Enzo Matrix's gun. However, it conspicuously increases in size awfully quick the next time we have a glimpse of the same web creature.

Does Web Sufr's voice sound familiar? It's provided by Donal Gibson, brother of Mel.

Ray Tracer and the Captain both know to find the "edge of beyond", where resides a tear that leads to the Web.

Surfer must be something like a keytool, with his portal-forming abilities.

I get the impression that Ray Tracer is not a sprite. The surfpod is the actual substance of the Surfer and Ray is akin to a hologram generated by the board in order to interact socially. Ray cannot exist without the board somewhere nearby. If this is true it's unclear why Ray is being locked up in a prison cell or has to dodge Matrix's close shots. It's the surfpod that should have to guard against real physical harm, not Ray.

If the surfpod gets what appears to be a huge bite taken out of it, how is it able to regenerate the missing portion?

In fact, Ray says he's a search engine. Makes sense, I suppose.
