You would be hard press to find a more emotionally wrenching episode in television than this one.
Ever since the beginning of the series it has been clear that in this world you need to make sacrifices to survive, but sacrifices are not very easy to make, and they can have irreparable consequences.
Melanie Lynskey's Kathleen that we met in the last episode is thirsty for revenge, her brother was executed by FEDRA because he was betrayed by a man named Henry, and now she wants vengeance. But when vengeance consumes someone they might be willing to do unspeakable things to quench that thirst.
The writers of this episode understood the task of letting the audience understand where she comes from, and what were the circumstances that led Henry to betray Kathleen's brother, but they were unafraid and unapologetic when it came time to the reckoning.
This is the kind of gut-wrenching episode that will stay with you for a long time after the credits roll. It will also give a new meaning to the series' motto "Save who you can save."
