When you plan on telling a story in only six episodes, you don't really have time for fluff. Sure you can reuse the set for multiple scenes and ask your actors to do the heavy lifting of expository, but if that doesn't work...well, Netflix can probably tell you about a few of those.
No, this is Disney Plus--Marvel Studios, actually--so you get your Bonnie Tyler song in the fight sequence, sure, but you also get three men and two different women each playing their own version of an "Enchantress" in the back of a Roxxmart SuperCenter.
We thought we couldn't wait to see episode two, but The Variant was that mix of answering lingering questions from the previous episode and presenting us with new information to speculate that we've grown to love.
Next up is episode three which means the end of the episode will be the halfway point of the season. You can send feedback via email at thisisthewayphasefour@gmail.com or interact on Twitter @TheWayPhaseFour and Facebook at facebook.com/TheWayPhaseFour and we hope you will!
