Two Mind-blowing Scary Images in this episode
21 December 2019
Warning: Spoilers
The shock of seeing the D.C. women's mouths sewn shut underneath their silencing red cloths was one of the scariest things I've seen so far on this show (and there have been plenty other shocking scary things done to the women on this show). That image will stay with me forever as a symbol of what the religious right wants to do.

The other really frightening thing was seeing the Lincoln Memorial with Lincoln's head and upper body destroyed. Plus the huge cross erected on the D.C. Mall, showing that the theocracy had taken over the Capitol. It was like seeing my worst nightmare unfolding. And unfortunately, it seems like it really could happen someday soon with the current administration. This episode hit me in the pit of my stomach as a foreshadowing of the future. I hope we can prevent this kind of thing from actually happening.
