This is one of the best episodes of Defiance. There's a complex dynamic between Nolan and his old war buddy Eddie that evolves throughout the episode, reaching a crescendo at the end. There's also the mysterious character Pol Madis whose role is acted excellently. It's actually a shame that neither of these two dynamic guest characters (Pol Maddis and Eddie Braddock) ever return again in the series. Their characters would have made for some intriguing plots. In this episode friction between the Earth Republic and Defiance continues to develop, but is mediated to some extent by the appearance of a representative from the Republic who happens to be familiar to Amanda. Bits of this will be relevant in later episodes.
