I know I’m in the minority here, but I’ve found this season a bit frustrating. Like the show has been teasing certain things for so many episodes with very little payoff.

This episode specifically just felt like it was all buildup.

Well, the season finale is over an hour long so I assume there'll finally be payoffs to most of the plot lines going on.

That, or it's going to be Cobel standing menacingly in front of the fire saying vague one-liners for an hour. I can't wait.

I have a lot of confidence in the finale. It just seemed like the entire season was buildup for the finale.

This episode was all buildup, but the season has given us a lot.

Helena broke into the group and was discovered.

Irving forced into retirement.

Burt, while still mysterious, being a Lumon lifer.

Mark reintegration.

Mark & Gemma's relationship & her "death".

Gemma's life since death.

Cobel's life in Lumon as the architect of Severing.

Sure there is still a lot of questions, but we've learned a lot about different characters this season.
