Oh boy. Guys. Amal Farouk is here, and he is AWESOME.
I was kind of lukewarm on the first episode, like, "I know how good this show can be so I hope they pick it up because I don't know about this here that I'm watching." Not outright disappointed as much as just non-plussed and a little lost. This episode did a lot to assuage my fears.
And you know, when I step back and look at it, there's not really a totally solid reason why I feel so much better, aside from the fact that the casting for Amal Farouk is the best and this actor absolutely kills it and I want to see him in everything. Can one casting decision single-handedly save an episode? Perhaps. That's how good this guy is. I really hope he appears in every episode from here on out.
Also I am really enjoying getting a peek into what's going on with Lenny now that things have settled down for her, at least in terms of her "assignment" from Farouk. Like, it appears that rather than just making a copy of her to fool David, he's basically stolen her entire consciousness and now she's trapped. Which is really fucked up.
I am so excited to be back on this show now. Yay!
