Praise Kier ... or elsewhere. This article contains the main spoilers for the latest episode of "North".

How can things be changed in the span of a week, huh? To this point, "Separation" was nothing less than the discovery during its second season Because the mystery that extinguishes in the heart of Lumon Industries only deepens further. The romance between Mark S. (Adam Scott) and Heley R. (Brit Dollen) Progress at a fast pace, we are approaching closer to realizing what the "cold port" is and what these corporate overlays with Gemma all that questionnaire about those annoying goats. What more could we ask for a series that seems to reach new heights at a close week and advance the story in a few unexpected directions? This week's attempt comes in the form of an episode in order to resolve the issues that, sincerely, never had to be resolved to start. In fact, the situation cannot help, but a little reminiscent of what is usually considered one of the worst episodes of all time of "lost".

I know what you are thinking: Literally just a week ago we were Walking on "separation" to remove the page directly from the "lost" play toyAnd we stand besides that. But if there was ever a show showing all the highest highs And The lowest falls, well, "lost" can be the poster child. We are ready to expand the muligan to what is undoubtedly one of the most attractive scientific shows that are currently streaming and chalking this last hour to a smaller wrong step. Titled "Sweet Vitriol", Episode 8 is another one -time episode, greatly avoiding the typical "cut" structure, following the exploitation of Patricia Arquette harmony. He pointed out from Lumon and unable to return to Lumon Fold, the former floor manager is traveling to his past as Acolit of Kier Egan ... and, shockingly, the progenitor of all the severance protocols that seemed to have taken the ego.

It's all good and good but did we really need to Whole Episode filling these gaps? Was anyone out there overly concerned about Cobb's backstew? Or, all this was pointless like that "lost" episode, explaining the origin of Jackec tattoos?

For a show that lasts as many big changes as "separation", something like this was supposed to happen in the end. If we had to choose between the production that things are safe and remains relatively consistent versus the one who dares Go thereEven if that means playing always and then, we will gladly take the second day of the week. Then it's just a shame that this latest episode ends with drawing comparisons with Probably the worst "lost" episode of all of them - It does not have to achieve the same falls, but of course the same wrong priorities that led us here.

So why this episode of "lost", especially? A "stranger in a strange country" aired approximately halfway through the season 3 and, as an obvious attempt to scrap the bottom of the barrel, as you would ever see, decided to focus on explaining one of the most important orebed details that fans could take care of: Jacks. I never bothered that these were included as the details of the character, simply because it happened to be real tattoos of actor Matthew Fox and it made no sense to take the time to cover up for each episode. At that moment of the series, the writers established the use of retrospectives as a clever narrative tool to comment on the back stories of our protagonists and repeat those themes in the present of the mysterious island. In this case, however, these well -intentioned goals were withdrawn in a serious way and gave us an hour glued in orientalism, turning wheels and just ordinary writing.

Equivalent in the "separation" will easily be an entire episode dedicated to harmony cobblet, as was this one. It is not that we do not want the character's very existence or that the writers should not have decided on another episode that breaks the format, and shortly after last week. Instead, it comes down to whether knowing the reasons for Cobbel's faithfulness to Lumon or her tragic story about her mother or even the discovery that she is actually the main mind behind the procedure of severance, actually changing something. Like Jackec tattoos, this feels like an answer to a question that no one asked in the first place. With only two episodes to go, even the slightest stumbling this late season is felt in terms.
