Annie is killing this show for me. The more she talks the less I want to watch.
The reveals that are hitting Joy about her Mom (Annie) during this episode come at a furious pace. Annie is not only getting weirder but more violent. Using broken glass to cut the ropes that hold her down goes from planned to panicked. This was basically an Annie and Joy episode but Ace Merrill is hanging around the Marsden house and that's never a good sign.
Whenever Stephen King's works lean into the supernatural, they lose my interest. I find them a lot more suspenseful and dreading as long as they're grounded to reality and the supernatural elements are ambiguous.

I'm enjoying this season more than Season 1 but the supernatural elements that ruined season 1 are slowly finding their way into Season 2.
Lizzy Caplan is excellent.
Why do I feel like I am watching Pet Sematary ?

LOVED Annie and Joy's interactions. Though, I'm hesitant to believe that a 16 year old, who grew up as she did, would take into action to tie up her mother to get answers. (well, i guess look at Carrie. She locked her mother in a closet after being beaten for so long.) I mean, Annie was going a bit sideways. My hope is that maybe we learn that Joy isn't all that she appears to be.
Additionally, Dr H is amazing. I cant wait to see more of her story and fear it'll end tragic. The same goes for Tim Robbins. I was excited to see (and hear! he has such a iconic tone to his voice) him this season.
As far as Barkhad Abdi (woah .. his last name is his first name in the show?!?) has been fun to watch evolve.
