We’re getting so close to the end, and we’re still basically at square one when it comes to dealing with Reichenbach’s network/program/kill spree
Last episode left us all off in a bad place, with the assassination of Morland Holmes , undoubtedly part of the price of helping the Chinese government…. (how do you reach the unreachable? You go through their obligations)
That situation is a very small reflection of current events going on in Hong Kong right now, which is heartbreaking in too many ways. Could the escalation have been avoided? Maybe.

Also kind of horrible that it happens in the year of a particular 30th anniversary.
Brief political interlude aside, on with the show.
