Amazing episode and superb acting from John Turturro. I audibly gasped a couple times, easily the best new TV I have seen in a while.

There is just something so off and bizarre about this world that they are still not revealing to us and it makes the show so unnerving in the best way. I can't tell how seriously to take anything about Lumon or the Eagans but obviously they are very powerful; do they run the whole state, the whole country, the whole world? Is this like an alternate history of the US where the Mormons were much more industrious or something? How did the world get to this state?
I was convinced there weren't any other branches until Milchick says he got an overseas transfer. They are so shady and I love it because it seems the writers actually thought about what is providing the shade, rather than just doing the stupid "mystery box" gimmick like so many others
Imo the eagans history is mormon like fake lore for the benefit of the innies. Milchick said that the waterfall at woe's hollow was the largest in the world, the innies wouldn't have any way to know otherwise. It's a cult at full blast because its members know nothing else
