Everyone hated the risotto

1. El gets arrested 2. Lucas lies 3. El goes to a boot camp

I loved the initial dinner scene. Peak comedy! Max is the new target of Vecna. This isn't going to end well, is it?

I do dig El's arc - she is a person who is defined by her powers. She felt a sense of belonging because of her powers and what she's accomplished with them. Without it, she's fair to feel incomplete and is willing to institutionalize herself again to make her feel complete again.

I have a little bit of comment for the El storyline. The fact she is being chased by the military solely after a weird body shows up is a little weird. It's not even her kill signature, if you will. I also do not dig the whole arrest scene, which to me made no sense. It seems to imply that the police did not know about the interception. So how do you question a minor without the presence of an attorney or a guardian and be transported to a juby instantly?? That I feel like is pushing the limits of storyline brevity too much. Was also not a fan of the ending scene as I feel like it was delivered way too matter of factly to drive the plot quickly.

But these are all minor flaws. The fact is, this show has the power to engage me for 1+ hours. Very well made and deserves much love!
