It’s a good week in Wayward Pines, but the answers might not fit the questions.
Here is Dan’s review of Wayward Pines Season 1 Episode 9.
(Well, that would depend on your definition of big time wouldnt it?)
There isnt any time to waste anymore, so every minute remaining of the show is crucial.
Noting that, A Reckoning marks a fantastic week forWayward Pines.
A Reckoning begins withyou guessed itKate being ushered to the center of town by Ethan for her reckoning.
Ethan screams at the crowd, Is this really what you want?
while pressing a knife to Kates neck.
Rest easy, people.
Ethan arrives just in time to kill three Abbies and shortly the fence is being rebuilt.
Pilcher doubts that Ethan has the iron fist to rule the town effectively.
Three recent graduates of Wayward Pines Academy seem hellbent on fixing the towns problems.
Its not as if cooperating will take back what he orchestrated.
Nevertheless, Harold sings like a canary.
All fourteen names, obviously, are of people who removed their chips.
Its shocking that she essentially acting against her brother these days.
Ben is told (by Pam, no less) that Amy suffered an epidural hemorrhaging and is coding.
I thought it also might have been a ploy hatched by Megan Fisher to get Ben to take action.
Theresa digs deeper into Plot 33 and finds a hidden hatch with an underground ladder beneath it.
She procured a Restricted Access card and uses it when she finds a doorway in the underground tunnel.
Anyone else have a flashback toLostand The Hatch?
The scene is well-filmed and well-acted throughout, and certainly chilling.
Most chilling is Pilchers complete unwillingness to do anything about Higgins killing prisoners.
He seems a terrible person to have chosen to start Wayward Pines.
(Also, how about that slap Theresa laid on Megan Fisher?
Pilcher was terrified that they couldnt handle the truth, but most seem able to.
The scene fades to black as one of the monsters claws clutches the once volt-filled fence.
Yes, theres still the finale, but Im curious about the time travel aspect.
How did Ethan, Ben, and Theresa allreallyget there?
It hasnt been laid out.
Andhowdid it really end?
The list goes on.
I just worry that well be left scratching our heads rather than reveling in the series glory.
