I think there's a lot of offscreen time passed between Will saying he has a plan and everyone executing the plan.

"Why aren't they rescuing Wolfgang first?" is my main beef with the finale. But it can be explained away by "Getting Whispers/Jonas is the first step in rescuing Wolfgang."

Was Will unconscious during Riley's time at the hospital? I thought he was up and moving around in their hideout while Riley was apologizing to his dad for him.

I liked the pirate hunter in the first movie because he subverts expectations in the end. Then they basically rewrote the character in the next two and made him an idiot/jerk/sadsack. Man, those second two movies sucked.

He's the cluster's social engineer. He calls it acting/lying but it's really a whole set of skills related to talking people into doing what you want them to do.

Glad to see June back on the live show. It's been a while. What's more important June? Your newborn child or this comedy show?!

It was more of a comment on the previous episode than this one. The only new info we got from those scenes was the quitting-the-game-of-catch-to-go-to-work montage. The audience shouldn't need in-episode recaps of things they just saw.

I didn't think the party was in the Hills. I thought it was in Malibu.

Flashbacks are usually a bad choice and were especially egregious here. Do we really need shots from earlier episodes to remind us why Will's dad might be important to him?

Those shoes were on point though. I think the Wachowskis were thinking the same thing given how many close ups they get.

SPOILERS regarding the whole season: I think Doona Bae is in her underwear more often then not this season. They even go out of their way to strip her out of her clothes during an action sequence in a later episode.

It's a great example of forwarding the plot while staying true to the characters. Wolfgang is the last one to ever ask for help (probably because he doesn't know how to) so how do you get the other sensates to know he needs help? Have him silently walk through their minds. The others know him well enough by now to

I thought the same thing ("Sun needs to learn to cry"), but then I realized that she was just crying at her parents' grave.

Lito's onesie is everything.

I liked that they kept Lito true to his character in that scene. He's personally courageous enough to confront Joaquin but still scared shitless about actually fighting him and looks ready to take a beating before Wolfgang helps out. He still has to rely on the cluster for badassery.

I've binged every Marvel show as they come out but I still haven't gotten around to Iron Fist.

Yeah, everyone talks about how Wolfgang is a violent criminal. But on my rewatch of Season 1, I realized that Sun has the highest body count. She is a multiple mass murderer who does not seem to give a fuck.

Yeah, I don't get that either. Lito/Hernando/Dani is my favorite character group.

She's also just really into gay male porn. When she found out Lito was gay she basically says "That's my fetish!" It's also why she's taking pics of them banging in the first place: to masturbate to later.

In fairness, the Wachowskis seem to try to work with Doona Bae on everything.
