Yeah, this episode gave me Severance season 2 vibes. Hopefully it picks back up because the first two episodes were really well paced, but I’m starting to skip 10 seconds constantly and not missing anything in the shot.
IMO the whole show is about vibes more than advancing the plot.
There’s maybe two paragraphs of plot in the first 4 eps, but the magic is in how it’s presented.
Because it’s an Apple show they can let the stuff breathe and have silent bits where everything isn’t stated out loud for the Netflix drones doomscrolling while they “watch” the show.
