The Accident

Season One Episode Two

Flashback of Emilio asking Muncho why he hasn’t gone to get ice yet. Muncho clearly says he wants to finish securing the bouncy house first. But Emiliano assures Muncho he would do.

The guilt is killing Emiliano and he confesses to David that it was his fault the stakes were not secured on the bouncy house. He was so excited to get the call from the Americans, that it completely slipped his mind.

Daniela goes to help search for Paula who is still missing and was the only one in the bouncy house when it floated away. They are still hoping she is still alive. Daniela is taking the death of Rodrigo very hard. The search continues after pieces of the bouncy house are found. The search dog gets a scent, and they get on a boat to search in the water. They found Paula in a cave and after rescuing her, rush her to the hospital.

Emiliano and David go to the police station to make a deal with Mancho if he confesses that he did not put the stakes in the ground. They offer Mancho a chance to send his family to America. Moncho’s wife, Yolando, goes to visit him and tell him to take the deal.

Lupita is spending all her time at the cemetery reading to her son Gabo. Lupita wants Charro to take matters into his own hands. Charro is looking for a hitman to take care of Mancho. The first attempt on Mancho does not happen. Later, Mancho gets a visitor from someone saying he is from the law firm hired by Emiliano. The man gives Mancho snacks as he convinces him he was sent over to get him moved to a more comfortable facility. Emiliano is told that someone from his law firm has visited Mancho. Emiliano says he did not send anyone over. Emiliano gets to cell and found Mancho dead.

There is so much going on with this show. The parents want to find someone to blame, and they are happy when they found out Mancho is dead. They think justice has been done. Little do they know the wrong person is gone and the real person is still out there. The show is not great but it’s a quick watch and not a lot of thinking involves. If you want something quick and painless, try this show.

The Accident

Season One Episode One

This is a new series on Netflix and after watching the first episode, I’m hooked. There is tragedy that happens in the first episode that will change the lives of the families forever.

The Lobo family are having a birthday party for their son, Rodrigo. All his friends are coming, and the party will be big. Everyone arrives and the guest are talking and having a good time. The children have been waiting patiently to get into the bouncy house.

More ice is needed for the party, so Daniela tells Emiliano to go to the store to get ice. He is waiting on a business call and sends Motea. who works for the family, to the store. Emiliano gets the call he is waiting on and goes upstairs.

Meanwhile, the children are excited to get in the bouncy house. Daniela takes a picture of the children before letting them get inside. The children are having a great time jumping up and down. The winds pick up and the bouncy house lifts off the ground and takes all the children up with it. They start falling out of the bouncy house from the sky. One girl is left and is trapped while the bouncy house files away.

They have the funerals of three of the children who have died. One parent watches the video over and over and she notices the stakes to hold the bouncy house are loose. Emiliano states the Moteo was supposed to make sure the stakes were secure.

Everyone is upset and one of parents drive to Moteo’s house, grabs Motea and starts beating him up. Then he gets gasoline from this car, pours it on the house to burn his children inside the house. The police comes and arrest both men.

Back at the Lobo house, Emiliano is nervous. He calls his business partner and tells him to take care of his family. He confesses that his is the one who forgot to secure the stakes on the bouncy house. What kind of mess is that. He let an innocent man get beat up and arrested for nothing. Let’s see what happens next episode.

Season One Episode Six

The episode is called “The Last Time” and it was incredible. It exceeded my expectation of the entire show. And it could make you excited and emotional.

Rick and Michonne go back in the compound to make sure the letter Jadis left is destroyed. The letter contained all the information about them and where Alexandria is located.

Rick is called into the commander’s office and is briefed by him. The entire time, Rick is looking for a way out. The commander gives him a story about taking out a city and the reason why. He gets the vibe that the commander wants to take him out. Rick and the commander get into a fight and of course Rick wins.

Michonne makes it to Jadis’ room, and it takes some time to find the letter. She shreds it up and when she goes to leave, someone knocks on the door looking for Jadis. Michonne must do what she had to do. Michonne then leaves the room and is lead to an auditorium where the soldiers are briefed on how to take out one of the big cities saying they will only keep certain children alive. This disturbs Michonne so she heads out the look for Rick.

The plan is successful They get recognized for saving the city and are later flown back to where they started. You will have to watch the reunion which will make you emotional. Great finale!!

Season One Episode Five

This episode was not exciting because I was expecting something different. Not sure what that expectation was but not what I viewed.

I just want to know what was purpose of the episode. Sure it showed Rick and Michonne getting closer as a couple but was it really needed. I will rewatch it and see if I can get something different out of it.

Rick and Michonne are headed to Alexandria and get side tracked. They stop on the way to rest and found a cabin and run into trouble. That’s when things start to happen.

They did introduce a person from the past. I was surprised to see that person and wanted to know his purpose on the show. Later they explained why he was there. When will the reach Alexandria?

Maybe you liked the episode and you can convince me otherwise. The season only has one more episode so I really hope it ties this episode to the finale.

Season One Episode Four

After jumping out of the helicopter, Michonne and Rick end up inside a building on the top floor. The apartment the end up in is state of the art with all the modern gadgets.

Once off the plane a group of soldiers see them and start shooting. Michonne comes across and few and fight them with the sword. She comes across one soldier and was about to stab him, but he takes his mask off. It’s Rick. They are both overwhelmed that they found each other.

They get back to where Rick is living and Michonne is interrogated by a group. Later, Rick and Michonne meet up and he tells her to be very careful.

Season One Episode One

Rick and Michonne are back with their own spin off to The Walking Dead. It was a great first episode. The premier was Sunday on AMC+.

We finally find out where Rick went after the explosion on the bridge. He is in the new city and not happy to be there. He has tried to escape from this city at least three times. The last time, Rick loses a body part.

They didn’t show Michonne a lot yet. Only a few clips of him thinking about her. Now I know he is trying to get back to her, but what about his kids. Not once did they mention them. He did say he was trying to get back home, so maybe that meant the kids.

Rick has taken a new role in the city and he thinks this will be a better way for him to escape. He becomes something like a guard and I assume they protect the city.

Don’t want to give you too many details, but you will love the first show especially if you are Walking Dead fan.
