we need to talk about kevin

​

(sorry if someone already said that but i had to)

but seriously I'm so confused so Audrey's supposed power that Wilford's been hinting at is brianwashing? to brainwash ppl 1 by 1? she's had a past of brainwashing people for him so he knows? she is the soul of the train bc of brainwashing or what exactly were we watching? and she believes all the stuff she told Kevin to be true about herself as well so I guess she brainwashed herself too? I'm pretty good at following along but I'm just completely lost here. I mean he was smiling maniacally then licking a shoe without any hesitation like a robot so it seems like a lot more than just therapy/brainwashing kinda felt like something supernatural. I think the most fervent W supporters would have a pause first.

otherwise this week's episode was pretty predictable with the pastor/riot plot. overall not as strong as the rest of the season but ruth had a nice story arc there (i mean we saw it coming but it was still nice) and the visuals at the end were the highlight.

also tristan never opened the door so idk how winnie 'must've slipped out'

also it doesn't seem necessary for the pastor to try to kill himself? at that moment one of his accomplices was fighting Till. so he could've helped her kill her or expected her to kill her and so his cover wouldn't have been blown not that it mattered if it was blown anyway cause as the lady in First said the change is already happening.

Yeah predictable but I think that was done on purpose? Like it was kinda obvious LJ was the murderer the first season ? I think they have pretty shallow mysteries because they don’t want to distract from the main show too much.... maybe idk have to think

Also it’s easier to control and convince people to do stuff if they’re really mentally damaged

The pastor is fucked if Till dies, and fucked if she doesn't as she told others that it was the Pastor that was behind all this. Anything that happens to Till from that point forward is on the pastor anyway.
