Mmmm . . . I disagree. If they're going to do two almost identical scenes, stage them almost identically, and put them both at the end of back-to-back episodes, it becomes redundant. Either combine the two scenes into one, have it be a continuing scene (ala the end of Croatoan/beginning of Hunted), or put some time (for the audience, not just the characters) between the two scenes. As it is they risk becoming a cliche of themselves.
After watching it a couple times, I can live with it as is, but an audience's first reaction to such scenes should not be, "Here we go again." It lessens the impact of the reveal.
