From - US Pace - Epix (***Spoilers***)

That scene between Victor and his Dad was so emotional. Really well done.

A new version of the pool guy.

Stupid question.

Would the talisman not stop the Ghouls from leaving the barn after the Asian cuisine?

Ye Boyds idea to Trap one seemed to have died a death. A pity.

IIRC, it's been implied that since there is an evil force at play here, there may also be a good force trying to help them. The most obvious of this is the boy in white but it could be more than that. So my read of how the trees works is that they are a network that are controlled (or influenced) by this good force. It's not random what happens. Boyd goes in and learns about the tower so he can later save the trio that were possessed (or abducted?). Tabitha gets to the lighthouse so she can get to the outside world. Dale is sent… of all places… into the pool wall where he's immediately seen and shown as an example "don't go in the f*cking tree". I think this good force is trying to steer the group onto the path that ultimately wins out over the evil.

This isn't all that surprising a theme when you think of LOST and how that was ultimately the foundation of all that happened there… good vs evil. Both forces using their influence to bring people (for help or fodder) to the place, to manipulate the place (evil killing the crops, good preserving the plot they found a few episodes ago).

Send one monster into a tree lol

So from watching the latest episode it seems that

The lady from the RV in the first episode.

Every episode, I always think she has the most beautiful voice ever.

Female Morgan Freeman

They are all in a simulation.

A new game. They are the first people playing it.

I'm yet to start this season - is is heading to a conclusion or at least an explanation of what it is, or is it still doing the Lost?

Edward Furlong

Brainscan

Only way to explain everything.

I fully agree, LOST was same mystery mcguffin recycled and repeated, this one seems to have more depth. But at the same time I really want at least some sort of closure or explanation, maybe just about the nature of the place, alien, rift in spacetime, evil, something. Not knowing anything about its nature is just too frustrating.

That was so weird even Freakish with Tabita in this episode. Honestly I thought something one of them monsters was going to come out of her like in Alien.
