The Episode Review

I felt for Maddie when she realized that Noah was using her ID, risking her livelihood to commit a crime. I also understand why she fired Magda, her home is her haven but she had to be on her toes and that is no way to live in your own home.

It is not clear what will be next for Hen but so far it looks like she will still be a part of the show. It is a bittersweet moment because we saw her work so hard to get here but it is also hard to say goodbye to her as part of the 118. I hope Karen safely makes it out of that fire, they have been through a lot, when do they get their happy ending?
