I did not expect that was who he'd be, but it makes perfect sense, it really does, it all slots together, and oh *MAN* this... I'm just...wow. This was so well done. I haven't seen this done so well since... I don't know, the season finale of Andor, maybe? Wow.

Also, obligatory: THE SHIP. THE SHIP. THE SHIP HAS SAILED.

Yay!! LOVE

This was such a delightful and satisfying episode, and such a good resolution to last week’s installment. I can’t wait to see what happens next!

Well-baked to perfection, with a touch of sweetness folded in. Chef's Kiss!

Also felt a touch of deja vu about the mysterious magic of islands. Anyone else feeling the "Lost" vibes??

Last: now I really want to know why Flora wants that blood sample. What use for that DNA, exactly?

Perfect. And all the returning characters makes me think everything is going to be okay.

Ahh, so definitely worth the wait!

I woke up on Thursday thinking it was Friday, and excited because the next episode was coming out! 😅

A perfect catch-of-breath after the tension and no doubt the trial to come. Beautifully written. An 'almost' ending.

I take back what I said. Ferris Island doesn't need a druid. It's got one. Rayville is the one who the island chose. He knows all the ins and outs.

He is the Druid!

A great episode with an ingenious but reasonable and uncomplicated escape from the Evil Villain! And closing with a gentle respite from all the tension building up to this episode, along with the necessary accounting and settling between Reyville and Caroline. Now remains for all the dark forces to be scrubbed out of Ferris Island, and then they will live happily ever after??? Should be a very interesting pair of episodes to come...

Flora! We knew she was bad news -- yet you have drawn her with a creepy ordinariness that is really ingenious. Also, now when wearing our Ferris Island merch, we have an answer when someone asks (as they did the other day) the significance of “Established 1792.” 😉 Terrific installment!

Love the reveal! So well hidden in plain sight!

I WAS RIGHT. The minute Caroline saw that vision of drowning and being washed up on the beach I was reminded of Tamsin's experience in Founder's Day -- it could have been coincidence, but two young men washed up alone on the beach in two different storms? I was so sure. XD

Amazing chapter! I love them -- sad about Flora though... I can't wait to see Caroline and Reyville go back and bust open all those cages. Maybe that will absolve Reyville in the island's sight?
