They've done a terrible job of explaining the main plot to the viewers.

I have no idea who the characters they are referring to are. Also i didnt remember who the big black guy was in the sewer for quite some time.

That being said I thought that was a good episode. Tense moments, vince vaughn did a great job etc..

I don't care about any of these characters.

Therefore, deaths don't really carry any weight and I could give a fuck about any plot points I may have missed.

I'm having a hard time thinking of a show that respects its audience less than this season.
