I had to pause immediately after the death of Alex. I was so confused and dumbfounded by that scene that I just couldn't believe it. I instantly came on here to read the reviews to see if people felt the same way and they do. I don't care much for the drama that led to Alex being written off, but what I do care for is how it's done and portrayed. The politics seeped in and poisoned this storyline. No consideration for the audience given. I really liked Alex's character. When I watch a show I want to immerse myself in it. Killing him off like that; so nonchalantly (especially the aftermath which was ridiculous), completely destroys that immersion and made me angry that anyone could think that was a good decision to make.
What a shame I thought this episode was going to redeem this quite boring season. Instead it's left me with a bitter taste in my mouth. Very disappointed.
