Season 5, Episode 3
8/10
Surprisingly Dark, Intriguing Episode
5 October 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This episode was a lot darker and emotional than I thought it would be. This episode has a lot of emotional moments throughout the episode, most done well. The main plot was Harry getting kidnapped by Jefferey was a strong and captivating one. The ending was really satisfying, and resolved in a good way. The emotional moments between Athena and Michael were really well done, and hit very well. The main plot was captivating and emotional, overall, a great plot.

Some issues with the episode were the two final scenes, with Eddie and Maddie leaving their families. In Eddie's case, there was some good build-up, but the whole thing was a little underwhelming because Eddie and Ana don't feel totally like a actual couple. In Maddie's case, this just kind of came out of the blue. We knew that she's was struggling, but the idea of leaving her family was just surprising.

Overall, it was a good episode with many emotional moments, but the final scenes could've used more build-up.
