In addition to every other accomplishment, these superhuman writers/directors know how and when - pun intended - to deliver moments of catharsis. The scene with Mikkel and Ulrich finally discovering each other again... When actors are no longer acting and have become instead of portray; when directors transcend the simple into the sublime, you can be rung like a bell.

This season is starting to remind me of Breaking Bad's Season 5 where the episodes were just hit after hit after hit. This one gets personal, and intrigue keeps getting higher. I give this episode a 9.3/10. As a Christian myself I am aware of the Satanic tones this show has, but I'm watching this show cause I love shows and I've been told that this is a good show. So far it has been pretty well made, and I hope every loose end gets tied and the plot holes get answered. I would like to know stuff like, when Jonas enters the black hole in this episode does it mean that the older Jonas already did that which means every 33 years Jonas does the same thing? Older Jonas hinted at this, which means I'm probably right but I want it answered anyways. Let's see how this goes.
Control vs. Choice - Is there a way out?
philipposx-1229026 June 2019
For most Dark has made us step in the darkness. Then it revealed that time is a cycle. Meaning that everything that has happened, and everything that will happen is was and will always be predestined. There is no such thing as choice because every choice leads back to the cycle of time.
But now we must ask ourselves? Is there a way out? There possibly is. And it's going to be fckn interesting!

That scene between Noah and Charlotte was mesmerising. That moment when she steps back slowly and the realisation washes across her face! Great acting. Great story writing. Mikkel didn't talk because he is in a condition where he can't even recognize which one is reality/truth.. Or the thoughts he have / had are just dreams.. And also the major factor he is heavily drugged by Ines.. That scene with mikkel and ulrich :( I've always wondered why mikkel didn't say something when the police arrested ulrich in the caves. I was so shocked with Noah being Charlotte's dad!! In the end I said, how when they don't exist?! The similarities of the actors in all different ages of each character with their own specific behavior. I did not particularly realized the similarities in the facial structure of Noah and Charlotte until you said it. Seeing ulrich see mikkel then see magnus and martha made me so depressed. Actually the whole thing makes me so depressed. Is there a single character that is happy in this show? Lol. Even the one character who seems the most composed (Noah with his evil machinations) is just a pawn and for the first time see this emotional/tender and vulnerable side, he's also longing to correct things with his family.
Emotional Tragedy!
and_mikkelsen8 June 2023
This episode really reminded me just how Dark and tragic the stories of some of the characters are!
This episode had a couple of really emotional scenes that really got to me! Once everyone were living a happy normal life... and now? Oh man! How much some have lost, to try and save those they carred about!
This episode also offered some valuable information that gives it all some more perspective while still not giving up the full picture! Everything is connected, endless cycle or one big knot! Its all the same!
In true Dark fascion its impossible to guess what will happen next, unless you have seen the future!

You Have to Have Some Hope
Hitchcoc1 December 2023
I liked this episode because some of the factors that eluded people in the past are coming home to roost. The skeptics are seeing that this time travel thing is a reality and are knowing now that they need to be on their toes. At times I get angry with those who laugh at the thought of time travel, but when I put it in my own world, it's easy to see their disbelief as a natural reaction. There are some great scenes here. Ulrich's escape and his reconnection with Mikkel is so sad because he has made his bed and will never be able to escape again. He is such a creature of emotion. We also are given the fact that things can be manipulated if played correctly. There's a long way to go.
Lost and Found
TheDonaldofDoom9 January 2020
Warning: Spoilers
This is kind of a middling episode in Dark. Still damn good, but taking its time a little more than I would like. Much screen time is spent with characters who are discovering time travel: their reactions, not believing it at first but succumbing when it becomes undeniable. This process is wearying to see yet again after seeing it in other characters already this season. It's a necessary part of the plot, but takes too long to get to the point in my opinion.
Claudia's storyline continues to be a delight, the future again influencing the past when she decides to spend more time with her father, knowing his death date. In her interactions with him she has problems showing her full emotions, it's sad.
Ulrich's development in this episode is excellent, and incredibly sad at points. The scene where Mikkel recognises him as his father is so tender. Yet when he is ripped away from his son by the police, Mikkel's reaction shows he feels sorry for him, but his place is now here in 1986. Heartbreaking to see this is how Ulrich's story ends.
As for Noah's claim to Charlotte that he is going against Adam... I know I shouldn't believe it, but I kind of do. After all, we saw his reaction to seeing the pages in the book that were hidden from him. And I don't see why he would benefit from lying to Charlotte about his intentions when she hasn't even seen him for ages until now.
The plan Adam has for Jonas, to stop the beginning by stopping his dad taking his own life, frankly doesn't make sense. We have already seen his father's death and everything that led to, and the show's philosophy is that everything that happens is pre-determined, it can't be changed. So either Dark has a huge spanner to throw in the works, or Adam is lying.
8.5/10

The plot thickens

I would need to think longer about all the craziness going on since the beginning of the show, but it seems riddled with time papradoxes, yet apparently working. What I don't get is why is Adam willing to change things? Yet, he hasn't done so in all of this time... Noah or him could have saved older Mikkel from his suicide, or rather saved Mikkel from time travel to begin with. Why did middle aged Jonas stop young Jonas to save Mikkel when they traveled to 1986 earlier and saw him a day or two after his disappearance, if he knew that was requires? You really need to be a genius to pull aaaall of these insanely intricate details together. I shall judge the writers and producers by what follows. The only thing I can think of is Adam lied to his younger self, not willing for anything to change. After all, why did he repeat the horrible things he knew ahead of time he would do? Crazy stuff.
I disagree with time being God, that's just false, but anyways. It is fiction.
I don't put any stars, for I need to judge the whole thing together at the end.
