Great episode! We get to see how much Snyder has changed with a completely unexpected murder and subsequent explosion to take Kynes out. We're also finally getting confirmation that Kynes is running a resistance operation with the outliers.That opening sequence also tends to support the theory that the war the outliers are being prepared for is already underway, meaning that the enemies of the hosts are already on the ground, an idea that popped up after the spaceship crash witnessed by Will and Snyder and the weird building Amy and Broussard passed on their way North. Or maybe it was just a training camp, maybe it's not on earth?

We're getting very close to the end of the season and this episode sets up interesting threads, which makes me regret that the Seattle story took so long to emerge into something coherent, something especially weird because it began mid season.

I'm afraid we won't have time to see the whole thing unfold and the season will end on a butter cliffhanger. I would have gladly sacrificed the whole Seattle ellipsis and the Bram storyline to make room for it.

@odrel Agreed. Bram literally serves no purpose in this show haha.

@d2dyno I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels this way. They tried to make him relatable through the labor camp story and I enjoyed following him in that arc, but he progressively went back to being this unrelatable and slightly annoying self from season 1.

Back when they were in the camp, I felt a death coming and prayed for it to not be Charlie, as he felt like the most interesting of the 3 children.

Oh well ¯_(ツ)_/¯
