As a consumer of fiction, I hate seeing errant plot points fall away. That is probably one of the most egregious errors a reader/viewer can come across, and lazy writing is usually the primary cause.

It was disorienting to come back after such a long break, but the opening sequence jumping from a peaceful moment at the B&B (with what I’m sure is one of Artie’s last memories of Leena) to him lying seemingly dead on the helicopter got me back on board pretty quick. Be warned that spoilers will follow.
