That's the perfect ending of the season one.

I really liked the pre-war plot making. It was a beautiful sight to behold, with a cheerful disposition before the war. It is as if they do not know what will happen tomorrow. They have the present, they are enjoying the present. With very small details, this joyful spirit of all of them seems to have come out well.

Yennefer's screen-time is much longer in this episode. She has beautifully given his full performance throughout the first season. I was waiting to see her real-power in the war. And that was satisfactory!

And last but not least! The meeting between Ciri and Geralt brought a smile to my face. Ah! A nice ending. I just finished it and started to like the series.

Shakespeare's Quote; "All's well that ends well" doesn't match this ending. The last few minutes are meaningless. Yes, I liked the whole series. But in the end, the logic they gave us doesn't make sense.

Look! I want to expand this. I don't know about others' perspectives. But here's my: We all know, Professor always has a plan. If one fails, he has another plan. But what is the rationale behind his final plan? I mean, he knows the whole team is dying. There is no exemption, even, even if the gold is taken out of the bank. Still! There is a huge risk and small hope. Our professor does not rely on such foolish plans; "We both win or we both lose". But the professor we know had a plan JUST TO WIN.

Again, the last three seasons are like a three-hour movie. They just want to make the series bigger. I'm not saying the series didn't go well. But not as good as the first two seasons. That's it!

I waited... and waited! I have repeatedly waited. I kept thinking, maybe now, or after a while, the professor will say that this was the plan. This was the plan that everyone would be caught. Can't survive without being caught. Or, right now, the professor might say, "Everyone follow Plan B."

But the professor is not doing it. A latent pain inside a mind. He stands up again and again, but it seems he is being forced to the ground. We don't know this PROFESSOR!

Slow episode but it has to be slow now. That's why I feel emotion, I can feel the moment inside the bank. Looks like I'm in the bank. I want to go home but I can't. I am one of them. And ... I'm captured now. Mind blowing episode, the audience has been forced to feel what it feels like to be in such a situation.

Although I'm a little disappointed now. But I really enjoyed the episode. So much emotion and heart-touching scene.

Will it all end that way?

What a twist! Repeatedly I felt very bored for the flashback scene with Berlin's son. Now, the connection is found.

The series is back in it's 'unexpected twist' stream now. Wonderful! I knew, everyone knew that Berlin's son was going to join the heist. But who knew he would join with the heist, but not in the way that we had hoped for.

As a novel adaptation, it's wonderful.

Tess of the d'Urbervilles, a famous novel in the nineteenth century, by a tragic novelist of the Victorian era, Thomas Hardy. Although it is technically a nineteenth-century work, the nature of its content and its treatment are predictive of the twentieth century. Thomas Hardy focuses on human suffering and shows that there is no escape from human beings from suffering. His tragic heroes and heroines are free from tragic flaws. In the case of this novel, Tess of the d'Urbervilles; Alec, Angel, and Fate are responsible for Tess's tragic ending.

Hardy gives a glimpse that fate plays a vital role in our life. Fate has played with Tess. Fate has also acknowledged Tess's tragic ending. The Durbeyfield family's horse, Prince is killed in an accident, and this causes Tess to look for a job in the d'Urberville family. Another notable mistake that profoundly affected Tess's life was her written confession, pushing it under Angel's door, going under the carpet, and not reaching Angle.

I liked the casting so much. I mean, they are so much perfect for the novel's character. Hats off to those, who are behind this series. They made the atmosphere almost the same as the Victorian era. The Cinematography, BGM, Scenery, Emotion is top-notch! The whole series is a little bit slow. But as a tragic story, it has to be. Otherwise, it is stunning.

Thomas Hardy nailed it! Seriously, the episode touched my heart. Throughout the episode I wondered how Tess survived so much suffering! And I blame Angel most for this. Tess accepted Angel's past. But Angel could not accept Tess's past. How cruel he is!

Also, I liked the cinematography and BGM throughout the episode.

Another good episode. Nice flow in the story. The episode is all about Tess and Angel. Loved their chemistry.

As a novel adaptation, I can say, Thomas Hardy is trying to give his audience so much emotion for Tess. This episode shows some of Tess's tragic moments. First, she gave birth to a child, and it died a few days after birth. He also refused to bury his own child. Then, the letter of her confession, pushing it under Angel's door, going under the carpet, and not reaching Angel.
