I feel like I’ve been trolled…
For weeks people have been going on about how this was going to be the craziest episode in the season and so much would go down. Fans, critics, even the cast of the show.
So I'm watching all the dramatically lit scenes in the beginning foreshadowing something insane or terrible happening. Then all the wild party scenes between the yacht crew and the Russians/American friends with foreboding music.
And then what actually happens?
Jaclyn hooks up with Valentin. Okay? Gaitok has a tepid confrontation with Tim that leads to nothing. No real progress on the Rick storyline. No important new breakthroughs (or even suggestions of what will happen) in the central mystery surrounding the shooting/body. And even the incest scene was just a drunken kiss that was egged on by Chloe. Not not shocking, but not nearly as crazy as I expected from all the foreshadowing.
Overall it was kind of a let down imo. I wanted something to actually shock me!
