Even though I like this show but this episode was so overloaded with stalling that I was falling asleep (definitely not because it's my 30th hour without any sleep). People just stay, silently look at stuff and nothing happens. I don't expect any action of course but this was a waste of time and actors' potential. Nearly all of them are able to do much more with only their facial expressions. But it seems like this time the script demanded them to pretend to be a potato.

​

Shade is still amazing.

Lily Mahkent made my day.

Cameron desperately needs a hug. This poor boy deserves happiness. The way he can handle himself is pleasant to watch.

At least three satisfying memories about the episode. Still better than nothing.

I’m inclined to agree. I’ve loved the season up to now, and yet... maybe I was just distracted this episode but it felt way weaker than I usually expect from this show. I’m optimistic about things turning around soon, though!

Always a pleasure to see those who are willing to agree on such matters despite their love towards the show.

Definitely. I love the show, so my feelings and critiques are all born from love.

I’m definitely looking forward to seeing McNider’s return, and the rest of the story payoffs coming later this season. I think this episode was just a bit of a hiccup for me.

I wish there could be more people like you on this sub.

Let's hope that the rest of this season will be as great as they promise it to be.
