An almost perfect episode
This ep is one of Dark's best. A lot of big questions, while the big riddle is moving forward to get solved.
There are also some existencial questions about time travel.

We know more.. yet we still know so little!
This show just never dissapoints! Every episode leaves your eyes glued to the screen as you are trying to look for Claes or answers!.
This episode reminded us that it is all one big puzzle and we have only seen pieces of it, but not the full picture! I can only imagine how it must be to rewatch the series, understanding those small details and knowing the outcome!
I think the first and final scene might be the most signifikant in this episode, as well as Jonas meeting the stranger and the scenes with Helge!
Soundtrack is amazing as always as it gives of this feeling of mysterious intensity!

It Keeps Snowballing
First of all, Pacing. I'm so tired of people criticizing a show because it is cerebral. With our tiny little attention spans we need to be treated to action every two minutes. When I was eight in the fifties, I used to watch the classic big monster movies. I thought, "Stop talking. Bring me the Beast from 20,000 Fathoms. As I grew up, I began to enjoy the scientific discussion and the interaction of the characters. I know that most people would agree with me on this. This story is about everyday people who have been through the ringer. The way they treat each other is so important. Happy endings don't always happen. There is often collateral damage as there is all over the place. Jonas's decision here was gut wrenching but so necessary.
Another episode full of suspense

A slow episode that doesn't surprise
Yeah there's nothing really special about this one. It's slow, it doesn't have any plot revelations or twists, it doesn't advance the plot much, and it doesn't even have a music montage scene. But I'm just spoilt; compared to the average TV show this episode would stand out as a top notch episode of great writing, acting, directing and atmosphere. It just feels slightly underwhelming after the previous 2 episode were absolute wowers.
Crossroads is a great episode, even though it's one of Dark's worst episodes. That just goes to show how great Dark is.

You think a show based on this kinda plot would be a little fast paced but no.
Wasted potential, cheesy and weird. Took bits and pieces from other shows and tv and people are saying what a great show this is just because they haven't seen any other series far better than it and almost based on the same plot. I have never waited out for any show this longer, thinking that atleast some of the 10/10 reviewers may be sane. Don't let me down.

Strong episode that continues to develop the intrigue
Ulrich pushes hard to establish guilt for Mikkel's disappearance, as Jonas faces a paradox.
The plot slow burns, but gives just enough details for it to remain compelling. With each reveal you want to know more and this for me is effective storytelling.
From a character perspective, there are lots of interesting moments. Jonas situation is a classic paradox of time travel stories that makes you sympathise. It also makes you more curious about the mysterious peripheral characters who appear to be pulling strings.
The irony of Ulrich being fixated on the guilt of one individual works well with the scenes of Egon set in 1986. Although it has reached the point where the suspicious behaviour of Helge requires full explanation.
I love the visual storytelling as always, with the various clues provided being revealed well. Generally the cinematography and art design is excellent.
