After the sighting of elusive Abbies from last episode, one would think they are the most immediate threat now. This is surprisingly not the case as numerous citizens of Wayward Pines don the cape of righteous vigilante and take matters into their own hands. The situation and small society crumble in rapid pace, which force many characters to resort to drastic measure.
A bit like morality issue in superhero theme, once again Ethan is placed in precarious position of obligation to do a reckoning. Though things escalate, he stands firm by his non-lethal decision. Unsatisfied by the suspension, a group of the first generation children try carry the task themselves. These children are looking more like cultists due to over exposure of propaganda, fittingly so as both the acting and material work in favor for this effect.
Despite the preventive measures, the current Wayward Pines is steadily reenacting the fate of group A. Leads characters try to patch things together with serendipitous finding by Theresa. While her literal digging bears some revelations, her subplot has been building up for many episodes the resulting finding feels a bit underwhelming.
The leading actors still conduct themselves well, but most of the better performances come from the supporting cast. Arlene (Siobhan Fallon) and Jason (Tom Stevens) have intense interactions for the more dramatic encounter this week. Hope Davis as Fisher is entirely believable as a hypnotizing zealot. She's adamantly persistent in almost religious fashion, and she's also giving Shannyn Sossamon a chance to shine towards the end for one satisfying scene.
With revelation and development occurring simultaneously, there's no sugarcoating the truth anymore as the continuity of Wayward Pines practically rests on the next finale episode.
