Spoilers
“The Strip”
I have been saying that the season two of Fallout has not been my favorite and that I had some trouble getting into it. The last few weeks have been picking up for me. Then there was the finale.
Holy crap! I loved this one. I am totally satisfied with the finale, “The Strip” and I thought this was easily the best episode of season two.
I actually think every storyline that has been building up this season came with a sensational end (or perfectly continued cliffhanger).
- I have never liked Maximus more than I did this episode.
- His reunion with Lucy is something I did not know that I wanted.
- The end of the Lucy-Hank story was more poignant that I expected.
- Maximus vs. the Deathclaws was freaking awesome.
- The flashbacks with Cooper and his wife were powerful too.
- That cockroach attack was brutal.
- The return of NCR
- “Initiate phase two”
- The Ghoul opened his wife’s pod, and no one was there.
- And WAR is coming to the Wasteland
- Liberty Pride post credit scene
And then there was the line of the episode that might have changed everything…
“The surface is the experiment, not the vaults.”
These words from Hank before he threw his own switch and refreshed his memories were ominous and made me wonder what is going to happen.
I was really engaged with this episode and I am excited to see what the next steps are for this show.
