I'm sorry but this show is endless meaningless plots and cliffhangers galore. We've yet to get really any answers in almost 3 seasons. I keep waiting week after week to really pay off. They hooked us in the first 2 episodes of the season as the previous 2 seasons did. These last 3 episodes have been really hard to get through. I get that time passes slowly as each episode is like a day in their lives but damn is it just drudging on. This episode had the boy who's seeing that woman that almost looks like the wife who got out of the place in the first episode. If you look at her she looks almost exactly like her ? Maybe she has some deeper meaning in all this that's going on. The boy that has been seeing her found that storm shelter and just maybe that will lead to something. The cop girl is actually asking questions but they all seem to have given up on theories and are not actively trying to figure out anything. Only the guy who loves all the puzzles and the guy who's been there since a kid are trying to solve puzzles. The rest just exist in the town and do nothing really. I hope this pays off somehow this season but I honestly don't see us getting much of an answer by the end of the season. I'm with the rest of the people. Frustrated and looking for answers somewhere. Enough with the constant cliffhangers although they have been very effective to keep us watching lol.
The episode was, overall, a disappointment for those who hoped for suspense and plot development. Much of the episode felt like it was simply filling time, with scenes that seemed to stretch on without bringing any real movement to the story. The slow pacing and lack of major revelations left me waiting for something meaningful to happen, but it didn't deliver-until the last minute.
In a surprising turn, Fatima's shocking attack to kill Tillie provided the only real spark. Breaking the monotony and adding a jolt of intensity. However, it felt a bit out of the blue, especially for those familiar with Fatima's character. This twist raises questions about where her storyline is heading, but as a whole, the episode felt like a filler until that final, brutal moment. It left me both intrigued and frustrated, hoping the next episode brings more substance to the table.

The sum of the last 3 episodes makes hardly one episode . The series is not progressing at all, some answers need to be revealed. In a 50-minute episode, barely a few hours pass in the universe of the series. It is normal for mystery series to be slow-paced, but not this much. It's like we're watching a Truman show. There are too many unnecessary scenes, too many unnecessary conversations. The series needs to gain momentum now or it will lose its audience. I hope the next episodes will be more paced and some answers will be revealed. Now people need answers, not questions. I hope the writers are aware of this.
This episode was frustratingly slow, and it feels like the series is just spinning its wheels without moving forward. At this point in Season 3, I expected some substantial plot development or at least a few concrete answers to the many questions raised since the beginning. Instead, we're only getting more questions, adding to an already tangled storyline.
The suspense and mystery, which were initially captivating, now feel overplayed. Instead of building excitement, the endless ambiguity is starting to drag down the series. Key characters seem to be meandering, and plot points introduced with promise haven't been fleshed out. It's as though the writers are afraid to give us any real answers, stretching out the mystery without reward.
While I understand that mysteries take time to unfold, I also believe that pacing and payoff are crucial to keep viewers engaged. Sadly, this episode lacked both. The slow burn has officially started to feel like a drag. For a series that started with so much potential, I'm beginning to wonder if it has lost sight of where it's headed.

I've watched the entire episode in like 10 minutes. I'm so glad we have a skip button.
They could do so many good things with this show but sadly they are focused on the wrong direction. I don't care that much about the characters, just tell me the story.
You're adding so many fillers but forget to move the plot forward, from what I bcan see they are doing just random nonsense things, I'm afraid they are doing this on purpose because they want to dragg this show a lot of season. You can't do that if you don't have a compelling story.
I'm still watching this show just to see how low it can go.
