June sees the end in sight. Twig sees the safety in privacy. Alice sees the truth in flames.

Dylan being monstrous had been telegraphed any number of ways but the inevitable confirmation still felt genuinely shocking.

Tremendous work from Sebastián Zurita, especially the seamless pivot from "I don't want to be that guy" to "I need you not to set me off like that". I suspect it would take a long time to wash off the self-loathing that would inevitably proceed from inhabiting a character so poisonously pissweak.

Twig's grieving scene in the desert has me in tears every time I think about it as well. Leah Purcell is so good.

This is brutal (in a "good" way), still working through the miniserie.

That full reveal of June's perfidy, and Twigs response.

Sigourney Weaver was also no slouch.

The Alice ending is an inflection, but - for me - only just another reset after where a new child is produced.
