EPISODE REVIEWS

This episode was really intense. Ringo got super crazy trying to make her fate happen. The cake scenes were weird and the story feels darker now.

I like that the narrative momentum here is maintained through quick cuts. The crash here feels real and even the sound design which used silence amplified the shock. The focus on the cake and diary was a good addition that adds weight to the scene.

This ep is a total fever dream and the lore is finally starting to click. We get the dark character depth needed to see what’s really going on with Ringo and that unhinged diary.
