Sleepy Strawberry
Listen... it's been kind of difficult for me to get into this series... So many points in previous episodes just took me out and while i do appreciate the relevance and importance of this show i struggled to really commit to it. And while i still find it odd how theyre adding romatic tension during or after scenes in which the characters are inflicting violence onto eachother, this episode burned down the walls for me!The conversations are so nuanced and interesting and it's nice to seem them succeed and maybe even start trusting White more, even after what seemed to be a fail. However, theyre also confronted with the consequences of their actions, i'm excited to see how this plotpoint will continue!Other than that, seeing the protest felt exhilarating. It's beautiful too, especially pride part with the fashion show and the rainbow flag. I also liked the Sean and White interactions during that scene, although it came off kind of strange to see them so close after Sean literally almost choked White, but we move! However, the real star of the episode for me might have been Yok! Maybe I'm just biased, because i loved First from the first day i saw him in 2020 but he plays such an interesting and fun, charming character. I LOVE Yok. He's such a menace (i mean this in a loving way) and i'm always happy to see him get screentime. Especially when it's with Dan. Their chemistry is electrifiying. The attraction feels so sincere and reasonable. They're so playfully flirting. I usually don't get fixated on the secondary couple but i'm always looking forward to their interactions, as theyre consistent, honest and start interesting conversations on the police. Dan working as a cop really adds some spice... I'm hoping to see more of them and, honestly, i'd love to see First and Gawin act together again someday.I'm excited to see what the show has to offer past this point.
