So (literal interpretation mode) anyone have a clue why an omniscient god would be asking Adam and Eve questions like that? ...as if he didn't really know what was going on? He does it throughout the Bible. It's annoying.
I'm pretty sure in "the pilot episode" the writers of the script had not yet worked out that they wanted God to be omniscient. He was just some really smart deity guy with exceptional creative powers. But in a later episode, they needed to make him that way because they were adding some new plot elements, like the Final Judgement. Who wants to be judged by somebody who doesn't know what the fuck is going on? Nobody.
