    Wow, what an episode! I think it was the best one so far. People actually exchanging information and working toward solving something, plot moving forward… that was great!

    I loved Jade and Tabitha as usual. I wonder what “anghkooey” means and why the children in Jade’s “vision” were laying like this, looking at that opening… I mean it explains the symbol, but what was actually happening there?

    Boyd finally got himself together and he was powerful this episode. I don’t think we can trust “Abby”, she’s probably not Abby at all. She’s been actively trying to hinder his progress from the beginning, I think.

    Even Sara managed to prove useful… Randall spent the episode unconscious, that’s a big plus for me lmao. Fuck Reggie though, his acting isn’t even funny anymore. And Jim… he’s useless and seems to be offended that everyone’s smarter than him. I am afraid he will blame Victor for Tabitha’s absence :(

    Tabitha and Victor are so precious ❤. I love them.

    The ending shocked me actually, I don’t know what to think. Is it safe to believe that Tabitha actually got out? If the lighthouse is the way out, does it mean that it holds this entire place together? Maybe it should be destroyed like the music box?
    Next season can’t arrive soon enough :( This last episode has shown that the writers seem to have some actual outline of the plot, not just making it up as they go. I am so curious what happens next.

    Finally! A few people start working together and ask things! But what really blows my mind is the fact that you have someone like Victor and NOONE tries to ask him questions (Tabitha and Jade try in a few episodes though) He’s like a walking encyclopedia of the place.

    I think with that end Tabitha could go with more supplies or whatever and try to get everyone out.

    Am I the only one thinking “Anghkooey” is meant to be a mispronunciation of “Anthony,” as in…

    spoiler

    the name of the hospital? I also like that Tabitha was just randomly found in the woods - she wasn’t in a coma after the family RV flipped or something trite. She literally was pushed out of Fromville by the boy in white.
