Season 1, Episode 4
8/10
Really Good Episode
31 August 2018
Warning: Spoilers
Best episode I've seen so far but my theory seems to be proven in that there's going to be some huge action scene at or near the end of every or almost every episode. Now, in this case it wasn't huge, nor really a lot of action (except at the gas station) but still...it's like a cliffhanger is what they assume the viewer needs or wants to get to the next episode. Frankly, all one needs is good storytelling. I blame Carlton Cuse, myself. But that's me.

They finally had slight humor in this. I know it's not a comedy but sometimes people use comedy to relieve tension and this show, with its characters, are nothing but tension. My only real problem with this episode is: you have a medical doctor as the love interest of Ryan's, and at the end they have sex. Ryan has a lot of scars all over his body: chest, back etc., and am I to believe after Ryan tells her he has a boring job and he takes off his shirt and she doesn't ask any questions about all those scars and bruises (or bullet wound, though granted it's covered up)? That seemed unrealistic to me.

Again, best episode so far.
