It’s been obvious for weeks, that the only thing Fatima was pregnant with was anticipation lol but least it’s confirmed. She’s either turning or dying and neither option is a surprise. The monsters waking up and letting Victor go did surprise me though, I expected for his dad to die at their hands. Their reunion has been so bittersweet and watching Henry’s sadness at realizing just how alone and traumatized his son had been for 40 years of his life was rough. And I don’t mind the focus on the new characters but Donna’s almost seemed like a background character this season and I want to see her rally and have a bit more to do.  

This episode definitely felt more slow—it takes these people forever to have even half a conversation and that’s before you pause for miscommunications!—than the others but I’ve been wishing that they’d pick up the pace for the season in general. I know the final two episodes are titled Revelations but I hope there’s a little more action in store before we get to those.
