In this episode, we finally learn what are site admins and how they come to be. At least, all but the original one.
As Aya deals with her hand in Nijimin’s death, Nana decides it is finally the time to make a move and handle those ungrateful girls.
With Kaname having Nijimin’s shtick, he poses a bigger threat than maybe even the admins. Leading to the question: How can the girls take back what he stole?
While we do get an answer to the fate of Sara, as for Marion, Miranda, Ms. McCraw, and what will happen to Mrs. Appleyard? Well…
While Mrs. Appleyard’s past is illuminated, and why Irma’s mom is upset with her, the fate of Sara becomes the first noteworthy mystery of the mini-series.
With a shift to focusing on Sara’s life, Picnic at Hanging Rock finds its heart and something which should carry you through the remaining episodes.
To sum up the episode, Irma hates Miranda, has probably always hated Miranda and likely was only friendly towards her because she had to be.
As Picnic at Hanging Rock continues, the mystery becomes more about why this production was handled as it was than anything dealing with the characters.
What begins as a peaceful day off devolves into us learning about two pending tragedies. One of which is right around the corner.
Picnic at Hanging Rock may, at best, be a slow burn of a show which hopes you’ll stick around till the end rathen than judge its merits strictly on the first episode.
The overall goal of Wherever I Look is to fill in that space between the average fan and critic and advise you on what’s worth experiencing.
