** While the Technobabble terms are genuine, the actual usage in Knox, Rosa, Holt and Jake's conversations are repeatedly used in the wrong contexts. Considering the action movie theme of the episode, and Jake repeatedly mentioning that he understands it (and clearly doesn't), it's a sign to savvy viewers that Knox is just throwing out words out to distract them.
