Goofs

Kristen tells Dr. Boggs that she's never used lucid dreaming before, and he explains what it is and how to use it. She used a form of lucid dreaming in the pilot episode when she made a sign and hung it up above her bed. She realized that she was dreaming when she couldn't read it while sleeping, then took control of her dream, told George off and woke herself up.

User Reviews

Dark & Not the Same Old Stuff

Look, you have Luke Cage (Mike Colter) and the always excellent Aasif Mandvi, who can do it all, but is best as the sarcastic sidekick with nuance, along with Katja Herbers, an actress I've seen in at least 4 series, but still don't recognize. It's an excellent cast, with Christine Lahti included.

You have to love this episode for the the story of a "prophet" but also because it's brave enough to mention reeducation camps in China as well as countering the Epstein committed suicide story.

They even have an ICE agent who helps a detainee.

It's nice to see that good television can tell a worthwhile tale, be brave, and not become mired in the latest political fashion.
