We’ve been watching them scramble ever since Joe struck HCF in the pilot, but, applied to reality, both can be done at once: You can stop and move forward all at once. And starting with that time jump, Cantwell and Rogers cracked an impossible code. While the jump is noteworthy, time is the key: Whether Cameron, Donna, Joe, and Gordon are getting ahead, such as a jump on the competition with a new piece of tech, or falling behind - losing moments they can never get back with their husband, wife, kids, or friends - the characters in “Halt and Catch Fire” are working against an unstoppable force.
