I know the show isn't perfect, but it feels like it is.

Is her job really that important, though? It seems like they have a couple of conversations where she tries to bring up issues that she's noticing, and he basically tells her not to worry about it and just rubber stamp things so that the shipments go out on time. It's not until she really digs in and comes up with…

You do have a point about how making him a typical bad guy would undercut Kala's dilemma. I mean, we've had two seasons of her trying to decide if she should follow her heart or what her sense of duty and her culture tells her is right, so making Rajan a villain would erase that complexity.

If I had to make up an explanation that has no basis in anything that's explicitly discussed in the show (my specialty!), I'd say that there are certain people with the genetic potential to become a sensate, but not all of them are "born" into a cluster. Of course, that kind of contradicts the statement that one of…

I agree that it felt really rushed. I remember checking how much time was left in the episode and wondering how they were going to wrap everything up in 12 minutes. I would love to see the details of how they got to that point.

I think you're right about the connection in the plots. I'm curious to see if they tie those threads together as part of the plot or if it's just meant to be a wink to the audience. I'd be surprised if they didn't do something with it.

That sad thing about Dani's family is that there are absolutely people out there like that. It's "natural" to beat a woman, but a loving gay relationship is sinful and unnatural and disgusting. I was really touched to see the way that Hernando and Lito stood up to them, and the way they held her hands as she told them…

I'm firmly convinced that Rajan is going to become a more typical "bad guy" in season 3 (and I will not accept the possibility that there may not be a season 3). He's always been a bit pushy, using big gestures to convince a disinterested Kala - well, her friends and family, who always seemed more enthusiastic about…

Which I don't understand at all. I don't think there's a director out there who creates more stunning visuals than he does. Of course, Crimson Peak and Pacific Rim weren't great hits (although they were both very good movies, IMO), so maybe Hollywood is just leery of him because of that.

I might be making assumptions that aren't borne out by the evidence, but I got the impression that other clusters kind of heard rumors about Riley's cluster - they knew about the big Iceland escape, for instance, which made Puck distrust them because as far as most sensates are concerned, there's no escaping BPO, just…
