It is great fun when a series not only comes into its own but the producers KNOW it and flaunt it.
In the last 10 seconds of this memorable episode there is a little trick done with images and sound to remind the viewer this is a turning point for the whole series.
I don't want to do spoilers, so suffice to say there is a plot twist here that even the most jaded viewers won't spot. It is exceptionally well done.
And the writers have kept true to their original goal of burying the viewer in what they conceive as the sights and sounds of LOST ROME which is very sensuous, very selfish, very class conscious, and involves lots of lovely nude women.
In other words, aside from the last bit, very close to the world of today.
Lawless is excellent. Hannah is excellent. Everyone shines here. And the viewer, like a fish on a line, is hooked.
