Amazing episode and superb acting from John Turturro. I audibly gasped a couple times, easily the best new TV I have seen in a while.

    I have trouble paying attention to episodes after a big cliffhanger that dont address it at all. This was the first episode I skimmed through a bit just because I really wanted to see some of Marks reintegration before having to wait for another week. Also I think him and Helly having a relationship is the worst part of the show, it feels like something that’s only included because its expected to be there.

      Just generally about their relationship: The real Helena essentially SA’d Mark this episode.

      I think it was S2E1 where Helena was obsessively watching Helly and Mark’s kiss. I wonder if she’s ever had a genuine relationship and if part of the reason she decided to go back in was to be with Mark.

      I like their relationship, it feels like a great way to explore a lot of themes about bodily autonomy and so on
