![]() This is the main scene of the episode, interspersed with other scenes. Yet, it is all nervous, striking and chilling. Again, not easy to achieve this quality with a voice-over. But thanks to this scene, there is a huge montage with lots of sub-scenes that show so many elements of the story, with many explanations. – He is excessively intelligent, it’s hardly believable. Only the beginning was kept to keep the cause and effect flow of the script. It was necessary to remove this content to keep the episode length. On the other hand, it contained the interesting elements for the story, and most importantly, it was terribly funny. Actually, the dream was much longer in the script. It is disconnected from the plot, unnecessary, but provides a good fan service. – Here, it’s the only scene I don’t like in the whole drama. The mise en abyme / meta effect is amazing. Even without rewatching the whole episode, I often wanted to rewatch it for its goosebump effect. Someone typing on a keyboard, and reading his report with a voice-over. – Normally, a scene like this is rarely among the best scenes in a drama. It’s more based on my opinion than something obvious. It’s hard to say, so much the episode is dense. ![]() However the reason he locates and appears before SM is not to kill him but for something else. Simply because he exists to kill specific persons, he is able to will himself to be wherever they are in order to kill them. Ironically, the Killer who is without context is more supernaturally powerful than KC, the main character. There seems to be a ‘W’ rule conjectured by KC who thinks through the logic of how the Killer exists….KC believed that because Killer was created without context, only to keep killing his family (and himself), that Killer could wake himself up/become self-aware, and could enter the real world too, to carry out his purpose. We do not see any portal opening (I don’t think the drawing tablet, which is the usual portal is on, since SM is on the plane) but Killer’s hand appears next to SM. And promptly takes physical form to accost SM right there in the real world, on the plane. I noticed one seeming plot hole… Killer needs to call in order to have a channel to communicate and find a character, except there was that one time in the airplane with Sung Moo, … he simply speaks in chryons without having to call Sung Moo first. Over and again someone had to talk it out to someone else or in voiceover with flashbacks and even with new/previously hidden scenes, to finally give us the missing information. Watching ahead, it becomes apparent that so much of the logic of the ‘W’ dramaverse had to be revealed through exposition. Show deliberately hides information that is only explained several episodes later, so that it creates a mystery. The way the Killer kept asking questions, sounded familiar, the way I was asking questions. I’ve watched ahead so that I get the context too, like the Killer.
