X Company 1.08 Into the Fire

X Company 1.08 Into the Fire
RENE IS ALIVE, WELL AND LIVING IN AN UNDERGROUND JAIL CELL! This is the best news ever to receive at the end of a finale.

I admire how Neil and Tom delivered what was going on in the concentration camps through a poem. Finally the truth comes out, as horrifying it is. A lot of people turned a blind and and looked the other way. Others like Neil and Tom wanted to do something about it. I'm worried they won't be able to save Tom at the end of the episode! Now that Rene is coming back into the picture, this could be the swap to come?

My theory on the blue wash dream was true the entire time! Alfred eventually got captured, which was the number one fear of the group. Protocol was to make sure he doesn't get taken alive, but Aurora just couldn't do it. I wonder what Duncan's reaction will be (especially since season 2 is official!) knowing one team member got shot, the other is captured and another is hiding underground.

I don't think Alfred will speak though. He's pretty solid and now that Franz is vulnerable, Alfred won't crack. He's pretty familiar with situations where patience is tested to call out bluffs. He's totally going to succeed in this. If not, I hope underground Rene will find his way to him and come to the rescue!

Franz had the biggest secret to cover up this entire time. His wife couldn't believe he had a part in what really happens to children (and families for that matter) even though it was just covering up the truth. It's no better than the people who actually commit the act. I am remorseful for the situation with his son, but he put it upon himself to take matters into his own hands. How far is too far? When do people know how to stop? All of these questions surround the Holocaust, but it was a different time where people had feared instilled no matter what side they wanted to be on.

Really looking forward to next season!
