[8.6] The road to perdition
cjonesas1 July 2021
A mini explosive episode, with a not so predictable sub-plot, preparing the ground for the marathon of the remaining three episodes. The acting is good and believable as before, the atmosphere electric and the judgmental behaviors leading to decisive actions strong and forceful.

It's dragging a bit, just to develop properly and prepare for more powerful happenings and turns of events.

Please remember, It's a teen series, a teen episode; the show won't be fit as a 2h movie (unless losing amazing flow); it may not be to the liking and appreciation of young or old adults and it definitely is not weak and predictable.

Overall this is not a bad episode. It moves the plot along and gives us a few answers. Unfortunately none of the answers are all that surprising, groundbreaking, or satisfying. It feels a tad too predictable. My expectations were higher for this episode and unfortunately it did not meet them.
