I was NOT expecting Jesse to exit the train this soon. I’m sure we’ll see more of him at the end, but is he otherwise out of the show for good? Actually, if he’s not coming back, then narratively it might be better for us to not see his homecoming and instead focus on MT’s story.
I wonder how she’s going to wheel Mace and Sieve. That’s what’s going to happen, I think, almost definitely. They’ve set that up pretty solidly, and it’s just a matter of who gets wheeled, not if someone gets wheeled. I’m betting that’s how she escapes them. It’s gonna be pretty dark if she does it herself, so I’m not sure they’ll go there, but Mace is wheelbound for sure, and maybe Sieve behind him–though I can see him giving up the chase if his more hardass partner bites it.
Man. Poor MT. You really could see her hope being crushed. Poor thing.
The Mall Car was quite good, with a good villain, good character stuff, a triumphant sequence late in the episode and a heartrending ending. It’s just not quite as good as the best of Season 1, though, in my opinion. It comes in at my new #2 for Season 2, between The Black Market Car and The Lucky Cat Car, and my new #7 overall, between The Black Market Car and The Ball Pit Car (I’m a sucker for good horror and great character stuff, and it was just a huge WHAT THE FUCK episode that I loved.)
Wednesday is the first of July, so up next is going to be the three Patron Picks! We’ll be starting with the second half of episode 10 of Paranoia Agent, as usual. Streamwise, I’ve just finished my streams of The Liar Princess and the Blind Prince (which you can view by clicking here) and am planning to start Dead Cells tomorrow afternoon! You can tune in for that live on my Twitch channel.
Thank you all for tuning in! I’ll see you next time!
