Our Take
A solid setup episode that mostly works because of Zoe Saldana, who sells the exhaustion of juggling covert work with a home life that’s quietly falling apart. The action beats are tense but brief, and some of the family drama feels a bit familiar. Still, it moves fast and sets up enough intrigue to make the next episode an easy yes.
