Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Ethan struggles to understand why Sheriff Pope does not want him to leave Wayward Pines. Frustrated by the lack of information and answers as to Ethan’s whereabouts, Theresa decides she will go in search of him herself.
Our Take
The mystery deepens but the pacing stalls in places, with a lot of Ethan running into walls and getting cryptic non-answers from townsfolk who clearly know more. Theresa’s storyline finally kicks in and gives the hour some forward motion. It’s a decent middle chapter that leans hard on atmosphere, though the creepy small-town act is starting to wear thin.
