    I hate to say it, but the show is moving too slowly. I wish they had made clear who got shot, too

      I don’t mind the pace, but I’ll admit, most people seem to agree with you. I see it said more often lately, even with other shows like Silo.

      The person that was shot was the lady that the mother got in a fit with at the beginning of the flight.

        Thanks for who was shot. I was surprised how it wasn’t shown.

        As to the pace with Silo, I thought it was a bit slow, too, but not too bad. I was reading the books at the same time, though.

    Kai seems to have been taken, on the ground they know the identity of the hijackers, demands have been delivered, so it seems like all the pieces are setup for the climax, kind of weird because it feels like it’s a bit too early for that (assuming 8-10 episodes this season).

    I’m guessing next episode we’ll learn more about the motives based on the demands, but I wonder how they’re going to develop the story onboard because with the way they’ve set everything up it’s easy to have the plane become the passive story of the two settings.
