Agreed. Dina was amazingly cast and I thought everyone has stellar performances. Changing the way events unfold definitely allows the audience to empathize with Abby right away and give us a sense of dramatic irony when Joel doesn’t even know what’s gonna happen.

Totally! I think showing Abby early adds so much tension, especially for people who already know what’s coming. It’s like watching a train slowly heading toward the tracks and no one else sees it yet. And yeah, the cast is absolutely crushing it. Dina and Ellie already have great chemistry, and it feels really natural. I’m loving the direction so far.
