“Baffling” only describes this episode if it doesn’t fit into the show you thought you were watching, as opposed to the show that its creators have actually been making.

Definitely. It seemed pretty clear from the first moment, and in that pointed dialogue about Ji-ah joining her on the date with the nerdy guy who also liked Judy Garland. “Friends of Dorothy,” indeed.

Did anyone else feel that Young-ja was in love with Ji-ah, and that part of her speech about it being okay to be different was not about her being communist, but about her being a lesbian? The way she touched Ji-ah seemed quite revealing to me.

Not because she would harbor resentment over his comments of “shes lucky” for her rape but because Mother/Father wont because of the…

Is it 30 or 13? I’ll have to go back and see. I guess the Ark was huge, so they could have lost any other people they Sim-friended, but you’d think after either of those time frames, they’d be better about at least pretending to be acolytes.....or already inculcated about the nonsense.   You’re right that they’d have…

That “Next Episode Begins in 20 seconds” message after watching this was the best thing to happen to me yesterday.

I see a lot of scope to explore, develop ideas, and delve into different stuff.
Good production values, strong casting and performances, plot and pacing are on key.

I don’t catch much TV sci fi anymore as it’s so disappointing, but I’ll keep watching RBW.. potentially a few seasons of quality TV there. a little wierd…
