The plot moved so quickly here! I have so many questions about what happened but the episode seemed to not want me to ask myself those, and instead focus on how important the stakes were…not a huge fan of that.
Yeah, the whole discussion about Batel's combined genetic memories just happened way too quickly. I might have been on board with the explanation, but it really took me out of the episode to see how they rushed through figuring out everything. No time for untangling a mystery, let's dash off to the next bit.
Looking back, it felt like some of Discovery's bad habits leaked into SNW this season and I'm a little underwhelmed. Still love the show, but I hope the remaining seasons are better.
And now that I've had some more time to think: what was up with the modern music this season? It was distracting and took me out of the story every time.
