I am sorry but wtf is the motivation for Nadia to be so sus of Joe all of the sudden ? It makes no sense. He only ever helped her and was friendly and showed no reason for her to suddenly wanna break into his house because of some bs suspicion based on book cliché plots? What ? What am I even watching ?
Similar to past season where neighbour was sus and didn't accept the death but atleast that made more sense then this. Its so infuriating it ruins this mediocre season even more. Characters are written to do stuff to fit the plot and make no sense as an actual living person.
I didn't expect for this season to go this way and there are ton of bs coincidences to swallow.

Implausible ... and honestly not that good.

In the beginning of the season, I was quite intrigued: The setting is London, so why not a modern day whodunnit, Agatha Christie style. I'm in! I also liked that the series broke with previous seasons and took a new spin on Joe. Well at first. Now, more than halfway through the season, I feel exhausted from all the suspension of disbelief I had to conjure up. I'm fine with bending and stretching reality for the sake of a good story. But this is overreach. Nothing seems plausible anymore, characters act arbitrarily just to fit a storyline. A student breaking into her professors apartment, just because of a hunch? Please. And that's just one of the latest examples of complete nonsense. The only positive note: Penn Badgley is as awesome as ever, though.

It's bewildering that they spend a quarter of the time preaching about narrative standards, and then proceed to expose some of the most stupid sequences of events without the slightest degree of awareness.
That the purpose of the series is playful rather than introspective has always been explicit; there's nothing to be blamed there: the series seeks to entertain and that's what has confessed to us from the beginning. But the quality gap that separates the first season to what it offers now, it's hard to ignore.
Yes, it's a light Netflix thriller-drama, not a Charlie Kaufman film. But they should at least have the lucidity to refrain from giving "narrative lectures" through their characters if they themselves inhabit a universe that is flooding in idiotic nonsense.
I still like its first season; as an intent of a writer, I suppose it's only natural to be a sort of a guilty pleasure, but now it's starting to make me look at it with a bit of embarrassment.
PS: And just wait for the "You can't call the police... He always gets away with it". Sorry... WHAT????? That crap was hilarious.

What is the purpose of this episode?

Well, not only the episode, what is the purpose of this entire season?
What, are they trying to shock us and show us that Joe is deranged and a serial killer? Well, we kind of figured that out after three seasons, duh!
Lazy writing, cheap tricks... Oh, and a specially crappy trick taken from the Witcher: Blood Origin; tell in the first few minutes exactly what will happen in the show... If they were going for "subverted expectations", they are, once again, doing it wrong! Well, I guess this is, after all, modern day Netflix and the only thing you can realistically expect from them is to ruin anything they touch.

What laziness! He suddenly knocked on the door and found him in the torture chair, what exactly happened! The same thing that happened in the last episode of the last season. We were in the apartment and suddenly we found Beck in the box under the library. Nasty laziness. I am very sad about what is happening in this wonderful series that has lost its luster from the second season. We revolve around the same thing. Everyone wants to get Joe and everyone fails (I do not know about this season what will happen next, and I think the same scenario will be repeated) I just want a beautiful story about the same person. Which I got hooked on from the first season. Or please stop.
