I watched episodes 8 and 9 back-to-back so I'm not sure I can remember what happens in each. I do think this was the best episode of the series so far. Heartbreak, horror and repulsion.
Capt. Fitzjames's death was very sad. I really liked the friendship that he and Crozier formed. Mr. Hickey has gotten out-of-hand crazy. He was one of those scheming villains that you are intrigued by, but once he stars knifing people and then eating them, he can't be dismissed soon enough. Since he's quit the bottle, Capt. Crozier is an almost flawless leader.
HAS ANNIE EVER ASKED ANYONE HOW THEY ARE DOING????? I've never see her ask like "hey amadi/dad/mom/fran/maureen how are you doing, what's new with you?" It's always ME ME ME ME.
I'm so shocked at that article cause I thought it was supposed to be like an expose, that's why last comment I was like isn't her reporting odd? cause what can you get about them out of that experience? I thought she was going to make a "feminist" piece of like how that separatist old lady though being feminisit was like serving her husband vs how Annie sees feminism or some mumble jumble like that, I never thought she would write about eating pie and shooting guns with them, like this isn't your journal, but everything is so quirky to her, she's like peak white feministm I don't know if this is on purpose?
And Em meeting Fran's mom was so heartwarming!!!!! I get why Fran could feel like invaded somehow but it was a cute moment.
Can we get a spin off of Fran working at the salon and ricochet and em!!
Everything is great.
Story, effects, lore, cinematography, music, sound design, costumes, characters - the whole thing is just good at being exactly what it intends to be.
It nails its tone and keeps impressing me. It’s not flawless but I’m very into it.
Can’t wait to see where it goes!
Bump my score up one full point because of those two little girls, the creepiest horror imagery I've seen in a long, long time.
