With a stylish tone and some exciting character connections, it makes for a pretty damn fun placeholder.

[...] this moment with the woman who claimed ownership over her as a child is powerful in its understatement. It’s beautifully acted from both Flynn and Whittaker, and painful to witness.

There is much fun to be had in this episode! But all of it happens in the side plots, leaving Thirteen little to do but catch us all up.

Survivors of the Flux is all setup for the finale and on that basis it was a really good story because it has made me interested in how it will all come together...
