Well I’m really enjoying it. Dissociative personality disorder is at the heart of this story and that by its nature is confusing. Simply laying it all out in the first episode would have been a missed opportunity and might have trivialised it.
This week’s episode explored the confusion of the sufferer and presented multiple realities, each of which seemed plausible while we were in them. Cleverly, by introducing us to Steven first, when it is finally confirmed that it is he, and not Mark, that’s the alter-ego, the writers have left us struggling with the idea that this character we’ve been following for weeks now isn’t “real”.
A couple of throwaway lines mid-episode about planes of existence and untethered consciousness have likely also left a pathway open into the multiverse which seems to be at the heart of MCU phase 4.
I’m looking forward to next week.
