Takeshi Kovacs: [narrating] The danger of living too many times: you forget to fear death. We dismiss the Grim Reaper as a quaint metaphor. But fearing death it's good for you.

User Reviews

Easily the worst episode of the series

The clunky dialogue that plagues this series comes into play in this episode. Some good stuff in this episode but the extended run time really does this episode a disservice
