Episodes 8 and 9 are the weakest of the series to date, for me. That said, this is much better than Episode 8. It actually entertains and gives some big cliffhangery moments towards its end. I think it’s all build up with little payoff within the episode itself. That’s why it’s not a pleasing to me. I get the whole “it’s a season long payoff” what I mean is that an episode on its own should have a meaningful beginning, middle, and end. These last two episodes don’t quite execute that as well as the previous ones did. Excited for the finale.
