We may or may not figure out what the reveal is, but we'll know a reveal is coming. So, once again, they'll have ruined the surprise of a plot twist for us. Well, see, us knowing about it will only make the reveal of it that more amazing. Just for example, in Romeo and Juliet. The very begining of it says that pretty much every character will die. But with this knowledge you still watch the entire story unfold to see how they get to that point.

I get the impression RT takes more joy in seeing the fans coming up with a million ways a certain plot point could develop than seeing them gasp in surprise for just one moment when it comes.
