I don’t even know where to start with this episode. The foreshadowing with Eddie in the car with Summer in the beginning, too good. We see a lot of major things in play during this episode. Eddie obviously is still having prophetic dreams of sorts, for one. Richard and Kodiak really do believe they’re doing the right thing by going after Eddie too, which really upsets me. Because, as I have said, over and over again, I can’t stand creepy Cal. So their focus on Eddie really upsets me. I just hope they eventually see he’s actually the hero, not the villain. I really find it upsetting that Chloe’s son had to be in the car with their plan went down. After seeing Kodiak’s failed attempt at the war museum, I had thought he would make sure the kid wouldn’t be involved. I was very disappointed in that.

As for Cal, he still had Sarah by his side. Of course. Like, why is she always siding with this creep? I will never get over her nearly unwavering dedication to this sociopath. I understand she and he are co-guardians to the light, but she could confide in more sincere people, like her husband. Not her overly opinionated family. Cal still confides in Mary, so it’s only right Sarah talk to someone who isn’t crazy. Even if Mary is. I also understand Sarah not wanting anyone to find out the pending threats upon their very community. She would much rather sweep it under the rug and devise a plan with Cal. But of course, at a loss to herself and the movement, considering Cal paid out too much to begin with. And as not to be swept under the rug, as it was once again in the show; Gaines finds out the water testing was dropped. Those poor people once again get no help!

We see two of our male characters once again coming more into their own in this episode. Sean and Hawk. While both are on very different paths so to speak, they are both finding their footing. Sean reaches out to his family, which ends up getting him into a whole heap of trouble. As any family would when their son is in a cult, they track him down. When they insist on taking him out of the movement, along with Mary and the baby, I was scared for them. Who knows what lengths this crazy guy will go if he thinks his child is being taken from him. He’s already trying to dig his claws into Hawk. He wants him to be his little spy now, and Hawk has no idea. He really thinks he’s being used for the movement’s best interests. It’s sad. Hawk is so intelligent, and compassionate. As we see once again in this episode. The way he cared for the homeless on his mission trip in the city makes me really hope he sees the truth of the movement before he’s tainted. He needs to know how corrupt Cal is and how his Dad is really the one who knows what’s up. He’s the one who is really aligned with the light so to speak. Because the road Cal will have him on will leave him with no friends.

Cal’s little stunt at Sarah’s house when they were gathered for dinner was too much for me. He always manages to manipulate things to his favor and I can’t stand it. Once again he has wormed his way into the good graces of Sarah’s family. I would hope to think that if Sarah knew Eddie was being held captive by Kodiak and Richard she would narc on Cal. But considering how many times her poor choices have disappointed me in the past, I can’t say she would. I just really hope they hear Eddie out. After all, Steve wants him to be the guardian of the light. So if they really believe in all that crap, they better get that message.

I just want to know when they’re going to explain this magic lightning scar. There is so much more they’re not talking about when it comes to that. If this whole light thing is real, obviously Eddie is the only one really connected, and that has to tie into it. I can’t wait to see if we get more answers about his premonitions as well. He has had these since day one. Is it really the light speaking to him, trying to warn him? Is it his brother? Is it something else? We have been building up to all this for so long, and I can’t wait to find out.
