For whatever reason Somewhere A Paleontologist Is Crying has a "do not list this on a works page as a trope" header. Don't know if this is an artifact of the "You Fail..." stuff from a couple of years ago having a similar notice or if it's still valid.
It's really an artifact.

Uh, is it just me or is the whole page suddenly gone? What the hell?

Upon further investigation, it looks like it's indirectly my fault. I made an "alternate universe" version of the page, somebody tried to cutlist it but must've done this one by mistake. I'll do what I can to restore it, pending possible un-deletion (it's been raised in Ask The Tropers).
Ok, seriously, this is a recap page! What's up with the spoiler tags? If someone doesn't want to be spoiled, I shouldn't think they would have any business reading recaps. Gonna remove all spoiler tags

Someone who's just coming here to catch up on a mid season two-parter that on the surface looks pretty run of the mill shouldn't get stabbed in the eye with a major and unexpected plot twist. Are highlighting spoilers really such a chore? They can come down when the season is over.
I think Restac mentions that Silurians used to hunt apes. Would that count as a Somewhere A Paleontologist Is Crying, or is there some explanation (I'm not familiar with the whole Silurian timeline) ?
