@Killjoys calls it a season with one of its best episodes. Thankfully, there will be more! https://t.co/ZDbAIlUhUj #Killjoys

Highlights:
* When shows go for the 'dueling twins' approach they tend to have lazy traps and pitfalls, so after Aneela murdered Alvis, posing as Dutch, they were worried Johnny would fall for the ruse as well, but thankfully it doesn't happen. Did Aneela intentionally miss Johnny's heart? If her intention was the hurt Dutch as much as possible, killing Johnny would have been a good start, so did she intend to just wound him? Is there something deep in her psyche that prevented her from taking this drastic step, knowing how it would impact Dutch?
* The episode structure drives the narrative with impeccable timing, as it moves from Pree and the Farren camp, the RAC ship and Kendry and the Hullen. Director Stefan Pleszczynski stays with each location long enough for viewers to become emotionally invested, rather than ave the editing become frantic to convey tension. The highlight of the episode's construction bookends the opening scene in the Farren camp with Dutch and Aneela on the green plasma's serene beach at the end, bringing us full circle, while still heading in an unexpected direction.
* The fact that Fancy Lee and Turin can put their differences aside in pursuit of a common enemy, doesn't just show how formidable the foe appears, but also puts on display the power of brothers-in-arms ideology. Fancy is definitely the bigger man in this situation, but his RAC commander's willingness to die so the others can escape, begins to address his desire to square accounts with all his men.
* The Dutch-Aneela meeting had us on edge the entire season and didn't disappoint. Even though both of them vowed to kill the other, an alternative might exist. As we learn about their shared experiences and memories, the situation they both face becomes much more complex. Can the two reconcile? They may have a common enemy, but whether they can work together to contain the Lady will have to wait until next season.
