I mean when you say worn out very quickly, you're certainly not exaggerating.

I understand that, but you also understand that we're talking about an ancillary character who has only appeared for three scenes up until this point right?

"subtly absurd"

are purposefully nonsensical comments under the guise of wit a typical AV Club thing? evidently I'm new to this place also!

Are those questions, are condescending wrong answers?

The pill that Melissa took is going to be identified by Erica, and and end up being the medication required to help with her mental illness.

I'm surprised the reviewer didn't notice this. I immediately saw her behaviour as being her old morning routine, including taking the medication, which would suggest that that medication is what helped with her very apparent mental illness. It's actually a good indication that she's going to be fine.

I'm surprised that you're surprised after having watched only the first episode.

Not surprising. Wait.
