I enjoyed this episode, but the dialogue wasn't that good. The thing with Omnipotus, Rex hinting at the second catastrophe and the scene at the end with Allen. Why does ripping off his beard mean he's a Viltrumite? Did I forget something they mentioned in the third episode?

Yeah, I was wrong, them only growing mustaches is a cultural thing and not a biological constraint. It's been some time since I read the comics, I just have vague memories of Kirkman talking about the mustaches, and how lady Viltrumites can't grow them but have their own version of that downstairs.
