That’s about how I felt about this episode:
The side stories were actually more intriguing — and I wonder how long the “missing wife” side story is going to last. What happens to Alex as The Player when that mystery has been solved?
I can’t see it stretching over several seasons. Is this series going to be like Doctor Who, with a different Player each season? That’d be very interesting!
They’ve let her hair down. Good.
What was bad: Using the line, “It’s complicated,” for the second time within the first four episodes!
Possible alternatives:
“We have a relationship of complexities.”
“This isn’t something simple.”
“Welcome to the funhouse mirror. Nothing is what it looks like.”
Says it all:
Like I said, the side stories were more intriguing and interesting.
But I’m still liking it and still recommend everyone catch on and catch up.
