Probably the worst episode thus far.
The first season of the show was more or less true to the source material but the second is getting progressively more distant from it and this episode in particular seems to be a turning point. First of all i would like to say that i have no problem with adaptations and with changing some things but the thing that bothers me is that the essence of the character's relationships are wildly different here and seem less convincing than the comics. I don't like the psychopathic way in which they are portraying Jesse or the structuraly flawed relationship between him and Tulip because Jesse's morals and the unconditional love between him and Tulip were key elements to the comics and without it the series gets emotionaly exhausting and overly dramatic.
The Teenage Jesus song was super cool though, shout out to whomever was in charge of that

But, the reason I'm writing this review on this episode is that this one lost focus entirely.. the story didn't move and the scenes were long, slow and uninteresting.
Worse, the soundtrack from this episode sounds like a chainsaw cutting through a stack of chalkboards. It's so bad that I had to Ute it a number of times.
Preacher had a mystery about it in season 1. Season two so far has been a wandering road trip with barely any focus on a plot. Unfortunately, this episode is the worst so far and makes me consider stopping the series.
