I liked Topher for really the first time in this episode
I had pretty much ignored Topher before, I hadn't really disliked him but I sure couldn't like him. But crazy!Topher, and even the scene with the exec-in-Victor when it started to show up that there are lines he really didn't sign up to cross, I suddenly did like him. Plus Adele/(crazy)Topher totally works for me it turns out.
I know I watched the original pilot a couple weeks ago, but it was pretty forgettable. It was pretty exposition heavy I do recall, and so it probably was a good idea to change it, to just throw the audience into the middle of the situation.
