This episode, despite being 53 minutes, is fast-paced and has a couple of plot twists that make it a very intriguing episode. Isaac gets beaten up in this episode, being shot multiple times in the game of EVE and we learn more about how re-spawning works within the game. We meet a few new characters and overall, I thought the scenes were well done. There were a few noticeable video cuts during moments where it would be better if there weren't, but then again, considering the cast of this series, it's still performed well.
Performance wise, looking at the characters so far in the series, I've been impressed by the acting of Jesse (Isaac) and Larry (Arachnid). Jay (Malachi) has done a good job too, same with Terry (Mary II) and Jeffrey (Moderator). Although, there are some characters that certainly aren't a sell for me, in this episode one of them stuck out in Carina (Leah). The conversation in the middle of the episode between Jesse and Leah was... tough to watch! Otherwise, really good episode. Rating: 9.0/10.
