At its most basic level, its a crime/psychological thriller, bolstered by heavy neo-noir elements.

Or at least thats what much of the season had been about so far.

However, there may have been no other place for his story to go.

I am holding out a bit of hope that we havent seen the last of him.

Gino is concerned about his own life and safety, but for other reasons.

From the very start, weve been told something is coming.

In many ways, however, the anticipation is almost worse than whatever that thing is.

The fear is unraveling them just as much as their actual reality.
