Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Years earlier, Spike and Vicious meet Julia at Ana’s club. But romantic entanglements and Vicious’ ambitions soon cause trouble for all of them.
Our Take
A full flashback hour, and honestly the show needed it. The Spike/Vicious/Julia backstory finally gets room to breathe, and the doomed romance lands better than anything in the present-day timeline. It drags a bit in the middle and some dialogue is clunky, but the ending hits hard. Worth watching even if you’ve been lukewarm on the season so far.
