"Executive Producer Robert Goodwin considered the episode one of the most emotional episodes of the first season". Why was this?

I never even considered that when watching the episode because it makes no sense. Bombs don't tick. The implication of the ticking (if you think it was a bomb) would be that it was a time bomb - which, again, would make no sense, if the bomb is there as some kind of precaution.
The ticking was meant to represent a metaphorical time bomb - the research, that was hiding there in the locker awaiting its eventual discovery. The VO narration confirms this, talking about Barnett from beyond the grave and so on. Or maybe I watched it wrong, I dunno. But the suggestion that it's a literal bomb in there seems ludicrous to me, given we hear a distinct ticking sound and the kind of bomb associated (incorrectly) with ticking in pop culture wouldn't make sense for that purpose. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:D:C600:750:2144:1B32:2E79:EE39 ( talk) 18:40, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
