    Brilliant!

    To use the writer's favorite word - f***! This episode had so much packed into it - and all with no dialog. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. We have all become use to multi-tasking while watching TV, but not during this episode. I was focused only on the story unfolding.

    Is compulsive home breaking a thing with your bull$&it generation?

    This episode was pristine. Worthy of an Emmy. It revealed more clues than any episode yet, with nary a word spoken.

    James Caverly and Nathan Lane owned this episode. And never has Scrabble been so saucy....

    10/10 for this masterpiece.

    Brilliant love of The Craft.

    This was a brilliant episode. This shows what can be done when people love their craft and want to show the world what's possible. Although it may not have been the funniest or the most exciting episode I think it was brilliantly done and as well worth the effort of watching this type of episode. Highly recommend the whole show it's great I hope the final three are just as wonderful.

    So well done

    Who would have thought a story could be told this way? Loved it.

    Captivating Episode

    Much darker than earlier episodes, but many questions are answered. IMHO this is the best episode so far.

    • Trivia
      In the opening credits, there are Scrabble tiles in the lower-right corner of Mabel's window. Those letters, rearranged, spell "SILENCE".
    • Goofs
      When Mabel and Charles are getting onto the elevator as Oliver and Teddy are getting off the other elevator (on the same floor), the floor indicators (above each elevator) are showing two different floors.
