Yeah, one of the best scenes of the season. The episode really turned for me when they went into the bar. For that person to say what he did was a real :shock: moment.

Almost all caught up. Some pretty intense writing so far this season. I was mortified to discover S03E01 was based on a true story. On a lighter note, I love the way this show shits on virtue signallers. It's hilarious. Hook it up to my veins.

I've also done a 180 on Van. Kinda love her now. :heartbeat:

huge fan of the season. Its wild and so different. It challenges you, its weird, unconfortable, and it also looks amazing.

I loved how ridiculous and over the top this ep was, and i also loved that moment with Van and her friend at the end.

Cant fuckin wait for s4

I enjoyed the season overall, but that finale was wack as hell. For one, they completely undid all of the progress Van's character had made. I thought they were going for a fever dream angle, but nope. Just weird for the sake of being weird.
