This seventh and penultimate episode of the season is in line with the previous one. In other words, it's excellent. At no point this season have two superb episodes managed to be chained together. Fewer digressions, a sustained pace, suspense, top performances, particularly from Joanna Lumley and Steve Buscemi. Emma Myers and Evie Templeton are as adorable as ever.

All that remains is to hope for a grand finale for this season 2.

Ep 7 "Woe Me the Money" aims for high drama but hits more of a setup-heavy lull.

The flashbacks revealing Principal Dort as the Morning Song architect are compelling, but the episode rushes from cult intrigue to chandelier destruction in record time... complexity cluttered into spectacle. Steve Buscemi relishes the reveal, and the gala's dance-turn coup is clever, giving Evie Templeton and Joy Sunday their moment to shine.

But the narrative tug between family secrets, cult payoffs, and Isaac's kidnapping leaves Wednesday in the background rather than front and center.

Ortega still commands every scene she's in, and the Gomez-Isaac history adds poignant weight. However, pacing is choppy; rather than savoring the tension, this feels like the mechanics before shoving us into the finale.

The Isaac-Pugsley cliffhanger grabs attention... but it also underscores how much had to be crammed into one episode. It's far from bad, and the payoff will likely land. But here, we're just waiting for the big endgame.

Could've used more breathing room. 7/10.

One subplot is brought to a fairly satisfying conclusion. It also sets up the last episode nicely. Those who like Wednesday at the centre of everything might be disappointed, but I personally like that other characters have an opportunity to shine. It can sometimes be frustrating when one central character is consistently portrayed as the saviour in every situation.

I think the visuals are superb, thanks to the great choreography, production design, and costuming. The school gala is the highlight to which everything leads and has several memorable moments. You feel the filmmakers are attempting to capture the same vibe as Woe What a Night, but it doesn't quite reach that height.

All actors are in good form.
