in the comments let's talk about york and this new group of mysterious women who used to be
ex-cons and the secrets they hold also york might have a new thing going on with one of the women
and also um allison in 355 is there something that might be going on with them but at the same time
we have all the stuff going on with the pentagon and kim and oliver now having even more reasons
to go after president brown especially what happens to kim mom and maybe kim blaming president
brown for calling her mom crazy and also beth is back she seems to be working on the cover who is
his group and will they be able to take down the pentagon only time will tell but let me know your
pros your cons your thoughts and theories for the weeks ahead in the comments below so i'm going to
say it right now just my initial thoughts this was easily the best episode of the series so far
the writing was there the performances were solid the stakes were there the drama was there i mean
there was a lot of good stuff going on with this episode i don't really have any really
main criticism with this episode at all this new group has a really nice dynamic i hope we
get more of them i hope we learn more about them and we just don't like meet them and then go off
and not see them again because they got a lot of good stuff a lot of secrets i want to learn about
the relationships they maybe develop i don't know how i feel about 355 analysis and we'll talk about
this breakdown obviously but you know even that stuff is just so rich but then even the stuff at
the pentagon which is even richer kim and her mother dying and what that could mean and her
blaming the president for her mother taking her own life obviously the stuff with oliver still
going on and then beth who's the group she's working with will they be able to take the
pentagon down again this was a fantastic episode just my thoughts i thought it was the best of
the season so far but let me know yours in the comments let's break this episode down as we open
up with our team that come across this camper but obviously before they even come across the camper
there's tension you know we we know that there's still beef amongst allison and york as they tried
to escape 355 last week she's still upset with them they're upset with her so there's a lot of
tension going on in the air but that tension has to be put on hold because we see that 355
crashes the camper she falls asleep at the wheel and this probably gives allison a little bit more
fuel to the fire that we don't need to be with her because she doesn't have the best interest
for our lives but we'll talk about allison in 355 a little bit later but allison is the first one
to wake up after this crash she's she sees that york is passed out the monkey's okay which is good
but she notices that 355 is missing she comes out of the camper only to be met by this new
group of people can we trust them can we not we'll talk about them in this breakdown but let's head
back to the pentagon where we see president brown and oliver they're questioning the soldiers that
were tasked to fight for 355 and we see that the president is still doing a good job of keeping her
lies and keeping everything at bay but we see that she you know she is doing a great job of doing
this because they obviously tell her that yorick is safe you know she hears that they were with the
man they were with the doctor the mission seems to be still at par but she still can't trust 355 she
doesn't know who she is so she's doing a good job of like not being too happy to hit her son safe
but at the same time not being like afraid to hear that her son is still with this who she doesn't
know who this person is so again president brown has a lot going on on her plate right now but
nonetheless we see that she wants to bury these soldiers in regards to let's reassign them let's
not have them you know she shoots down the idea of the one uh a soldier who saw york she's like
no you were hit with a tranquilizer you you were the only one that's seen them so she really puts
her down and she wants this whole group of women to be put to another task because she doesn't want
her secret to get out which it almost does later in this episode but back to york who
is finally up at this point he doesn't know where he is he just knows that he's waking up to this
random woman he has no clothes on as he gets to meet this new group who again this new group to me
is really cool as far as their dynamic there's a lot of stuff i want to learn about them there's
some secrets they have at hand but we know york he can't keep his mouth shut he pretty much tells
them everything that we know as an audience to a certain extent he doesn't tell them about allison
and them wanted to you know use his blood to maybe you know do a genetic science thing of bringing
the men back into the world but he does tell them i have a y chromosome a monkey has a y chromosome
and just again he's just blabbing at the mouth as he's used to doing but he thinks that or let's
just say the women think that he was held against his will which brings us to checking in on 355 and
allison where we you know we check in with them but even before we check in with them we get this
dream sequence where we see 355 waking up and she's woken up to death and we get that
backstory of who those people in the car were and it kind of explains how she maybe got into the
whole underground or not say underground but this secret task force that she's a part of but
we'll get to that a little bit later but it's in this scene that they are the word they're
held captive and this is where again 355 is such a smart person she's like this is a prison and those
people that took us are probably the prisoners which we'll get into here in a second but
we get a return of a character that we haven't seen since episode one and that is a return of
beth obviously we know her to be the girlfriend of york she is seen by the president the president
brings her in and it's very again the president can keep she's her son can't do this he can't
keep his mouth shut but she is good at keeping things in as she doesn't tell beth when she first
sees her i would have thought she would said you know he's alive he's doing good but she
keeps that information from her which is good on her part because we later find out that beth is
someone that doesn't keep secrets but again i thought i'm like damn president brown can
really i guess that's what it takes to be the president right you got to keep your secrets
as we know but speaking of secrets we see that kim and oliver continue to conspire to bring down the
president and kim's mom marla she is shocked to hear the description of the person that they hear
about in that meeting that they went to earlier that it's the same person it's york that she saw
you know weeks ago but she was told that she was crazy which i think plays into again
crazy mom you're crazy oh we didn't tell you about the house going down oh we didn't tell
you about this this these are just all the little things that kind of led her to make her decision a
little bit later on in this episode but again when she saw that she was shocked to learn that she
wasn't crazy but going back to this utopia group of women as they are a group of women that that
vote on every decision which is the polar opposite of what's going on with roxanne and her crew they
obviously are drinking roxanne's kool-aid and they do everything that she says but this is
the opposite they they vote on things there is that janice ladies that seems to be more of a
leader even though they don't have a leader in the group she seems to be the main person they go to
but again i like their dynamics i like the all the actors they they had some wittiness to them
they had a little spunk to them so i'm really enjoying this group and i really hope we get more
of them when we don't just again meet them and just kind of move on to another group and move on
to another plot i want to spend at least a couple more episodes of learning who this group is all
about and what secrets they have up their sleeves but going back to allison in 355 they still don't
like each other there's still some tension in the room and again they come up with the 355 says yeah
you know i can tell by the scratches and the blood that this is you know we're being held by ex-cons
and then something weird happens we see that allison's checking on her and she's like you need
medical help and then they pause for a second almost like they were gonna kiss and i'm like
i don't know if that's gonna work in the show i don't know if that dynamic really makes a lot
of sense they will have this romance again i'm not gonna judge because maybe they can make it
great maybe this can be a really cool dynamic of a relationship if that's something that they
hinted at because i think that they did hit that there's a romance there the two polar as they say
opposite the track again i don't know if they're those actors can bring that uh 355 is the best
actor in the that group of people that we've seen so far uh but i i don't know if that works again
i could be overlooking it but let me know if you thought they were hinting at a potential romance
because 355 she's like get away from me don't look at me you know there's this but i think the show's
hitting that hinting at that relationship is that something you guys thought as well and is that
something you would like to see let's talk about it in the comments but nonetheless this is when we
learned that 355 we go a little bit back to that dream that she had earlier in the episode and that
dream was something that was reality when she was 12 years old her family died due to a car crash
which may explain how she was able to get a part of that group led by fran as the other agent said
that they normally pick orphans and people that lost their family be a part of the group so it
kind of explains how she was able to get a part of the group but she lost her family at a very young
age and she's dealt with a lot of stuff in her past which can explain why she's so cold and kind
of the way she goes about things in the present day so i love that we're continuously getting the
little breadcrumbs of who she used to be before she became a black widow so moving on this is when
yorick comes in and fills him in on the situation at hand let's go back to kim and oliver who are
driven more than ever to get president brown out of the presidency kim wants to have a nation of
mothers which is interesting she says mothers because she loses her mother in this episode
but they want to the number one priority now because they know that york is out there
they need to get york because they want to bring back the men and we also know that
they want to get you know the second thing now on the list is getting the president brown out
of presidency so again they're they're more driven than ever to get their their tasks done at hand so
the truth almost comes out because we see that marla comes in confronting president brown about
you called me a liar i knew i saw what i saw and then she's just like you know what i'm just gonna
go ahead i don't even care about it anymore i think that was like her mom when she's like
my daughter's lied to me you know i've lost everything my husband my grandkids and at least i
have this now i i know i'm not crazy and i think that was her mom when she knew she just wanted
to just be done with it all and we'll obviously get to that moment a little bit later but again
um we see at this point beth says her goodbyes to president brown and again president brown
doesn't tell her that her boyfriend ex-boyfriend the guy that proposed to her is alive so again
really really interesting to see how different beth is if she inevitably finds out that yorick
is out there and especially when york found out that she's alive that's gonna be an interesting
scene to see no less but as we kind of wrap things up we see that the group after the team
gets back together the group offers the utopia group offers yorick and allison and agent 355 to
you know stay with us and two 355 recovers we'll give her the attention that she needs and they
have a pretty good situation going on they have food they have electricity they have the same
they have like a good thing going on in regards to the morale around the group but we all know
in this type of post-apocalyptic type of uh theme of the show things are gonna probably hit the fan
sooner rather than later but it's in this moment that we learned that janice she you know isn't as
good as she it seems to be she's killed two people in the past and it is confirmed that they all are
ex-cons and she killed someone back in the 70s and we see this conversation between janice and one of
her people uh dom as they mentioned that there's some type of secrets how did they get this place
who was it that they took this place for how did they get out of their prison cells they've
probably done some bad things to get in the position that they have but again that's something
i want to learn what did they do who they kill all that stuff is very fascinating but it's in this
moment too that dom says make sure that that girl that's been talking to york this entire episode
make sure she doesn't get too close because it's clearly showing that york and this girl gonna
probably have some type of relationship and i can just see it now he might get into this thing with
this girl and then at the same time find out about beth there's gonna be a little bit of drama going
on there but there's definitely some romance going on with those characters but as we end the episode
we see that marlin takes her life she leaves a note for kim to see kim's obviously like
yelling screaming she's upset i think this is the moment that kim's gonna we thought that she was
bad now she's gonna be like completely going after president brown she's gonna blame president brown
for the death of her mother calling her crazy not believing in her you you know my mom saw york
weeks ago we could have saw this is going to be a lot of stuff going on with the presidency now
and she's going to be crazy to get her off of the presidency so that's something to look forward to
but we in the episode with beth she meets her group she's undercover and they want to take
down the pentagon so again how many of these women are part of beth's group is she second in command
what will they do with the pentagon is it for good intentions is it for bad intentions
only time will tell but again i thought this episode was easily the best of the season the
stakes were there the drama was there the writing was great the performances were solid this was a
great episode of wireless man i think this is a a template of what this show can offer in the future
i didn't like last week's it was my least favorite episode last week but this one is my favorite so
it kind of goes to show the dynamic and the roller coaster of the show so far but based on this
episode and based on previous episodes there's a lot of goodwill in this show i just think that
they have a hard time sometimes ironing out all the kinks sometimes the performances aren't that
strong strong sometimes a little bit too political and a little bit too heavy-handed in some of this
messaging but this was the perfect balance for me personally so i think that that with all that
being said this is my favorite episode but i want to know your thoughts pros cons thoughts
and theories let's talk about in the comments if you stuck around to this point in this review
