Season Six Episode One – Train

The show is finally back after being off the air since November 2022. I have waited a long time for the return, and it was worth the wait. If you haven’t finished the other seasons, you may want to watch them and get caught up on what’s going on.

June and Serena Joy are on a train going to Alaska. They had no idea that they both were on the same train. June is very cold to Serena Joy at first. Serena Joy is doing everything to be overly friendly to June. Serena Joy knows she needs June’s help to survive in the new world she has chosen to be part of. June does not want Serena Joy following her around.

The train is chugging along, and June wakes up and does not found Nicole in her stroller. She panics and finds her with Serena Joy. She snaps at Serena Joy and then realizes she does not feel well. Serena Joy tries to help June, but the help is not welcomed.

Eventually, Serena Joy goes to get a doctor and he helps June. In the process, Dr Brandt has a strange look on his face. He sees that June has an infection and treats it. In the meantime, Serena Joy is telling the doctor to help other women in need.

The women are talking amongst themselves about the horror they faced in Gilead. Serena Joy tries to act like she had some horror stories. Dr. Brandt comes back to check on June and whispers to her that Serena Joy is a war criminal. and he has called the authorities to arrest her. Everyone overhears the conversation and realize they recognize Serena Joy. The authorities come and look over her paperwork but do not arrest her. He knows who she is and leaves her surrounded by angry ex Gilead victims. They start to attack her. June tries to protect Serena Joy because of Noah, but they start hitting and pushing her.

June must think of something, so she pulls the emergency handle to stop the train. It only helps for a few seconds and those women are all over Serena Joy. June takes Serena Joy into an empty cargo and then tells Serena Joy she has to jump off the train before Noel gets hurt. She hesitates and June pushed her off.

When June wakes up, the train is empty, and everyone is gone. June gets off the train and is directed towards the refugee camp. She is amazed that she finally made it but also a little concerned she is by herself. June is standing in line, and she hears someone calling her name. It’s Holly, her mother. June walks over to Holly and they embrace.

Where has Holly been? Is she doctor at the camp. Where is Serena Joy?

Season One Episode VII

This episode brings everything together and the question is if it’s true or not. You will hear Catherine’s side of the story and it was not what I was expecting.

Catherine is at Stephen’s house, and she begins to tell her story as to what really happened in Italy. She admits that she fell asleep at the beach because they were sick the day before and she was very tired. Nicholas insisted on going to the beach, so she took him. When she woke up, Nicholas was in the water on his raft and had no idea he was in danger. Catherine goes to the edge of the water but could not bring herself to go that far out to get him. Catherine is yelling asking for help. Catherine sees the stranger going into the water to rescue her son. Two other men come to bring Nickolas back to the shore. Everyone was concentrating on bringing Nickolas to safety that no one saw the stranger in the water struggling. But she did. Why didn’t she let anyone know he was out that. Here’s why.

Catherine talks about how she got back into her room after having a drink with the stranger. She says she must have left the key in the lock and suddenly, she sees the stranger in her room. Catherine states that he was very violent talking and had a knife to her throat. Catherine is screaming and wakes Nickolas up. The stranger hears Nicholas, and she begs him to let her go to his room. The stranger follows her into Nicholas’ room to make sure she gets him back to sleep. Afterwards, the stranger followers Catherine back to her room and begins to tell her to take her clothes off to pose for him. The stranger becomes aroused, and Catherine is hoping that’s all he wanted. The stranger then proceeds to rape her. Catherine does everything he ask and after three hours, the stranger stops and gets up to leave. The stranger thanks Catherine and tells her it was nice.

Of course, Stephen is in denial. After finishing her story, she realized that Stephen has put something in her tea. She proceeds to get up but falls before passing out. Catherine wakes up several hours later and realizes that Stephen is gone. She calls for a ride to go to the hospital. She also calls Robert to warn him that Stephen is on the way, but he denies the call.

While Catherine is passed out, Stephen gets a cab and to return to the hospital. Stephen gets to the hospital and proceeds to see Nicholas. Stephen gets to his bedside and proceeds to put the syringe in the IV. He stops. Nicholas is calling for his mom and saying he wants to go. Stephen freezes and becomes very emotional and walks away. At this time, Robert walks and sees Stephen upset. Stephen then tells Robert that everything he said is a lie.

Catherine gets to the hospital and when she gets up to the floor, she sees Stephen coming out of the room saying to her that he is sorry. Catherine immediately breaks down crying falling to the floor. Robert rushes over to her saying how sorry he was, but that Nicholas is fine and awake. Catherine gets up and runs to be by Nicholas’ side.

After everything has calmed down, Robert and Catherine are sitting in the lounge area. Robert continues to talk about how sorry he was and ask Catherine why she didn’t say thing. Catherine explains that at the time she didn’t want Robert to look at her differently so she kept it to herself. Then Robert asks her why she didn’t say anything when the book came out. Catherine reminds Robert that she did try to tell him; he didn’t her out; and that he made her feel guilty all over again. Robert ask Catherine to forgive him. Catherine says she could not forgive him. Catherine states that Robert seemed relieved and wanted to forgive her since she had been raped instead of her having the affair. Catherine says could not forgive him for that reason.

Stephen goes home and into the backyard to burn all the books he had left along with the manuscript and photos. He looks into the flames and notices a picture he had not recognized before and pulls it out. It reflected Nicholas standing outside his room looking at his mother being raped. Stephen could not believe what he was seeing and then throws the photo back into the flames.

Catherine and Robert get a divorce. Nicholas comes home and Catherine tells him what happened to her. Nicholas is so ashamed and apologizes to his mom, but he does not remember what happened. Now Catherine will have to figure out what’s next with her life.

So, what do you think? Stephen has ruined peoples’ lives based on a novel written by his dead wife. Who is telling the truth? Like Catherine said, pictures did not tell the entire story of what had happened. Then, Jonathan is not there to defend himself either. Nancy was so upset about her son drowning that she had to blame someone. And who does not look at their children and think they can do no wrong. Has Jonathan done something like this in the past. Remember how upset Nancy was from the phone call she received from Sasha’s mom. Did Jonathan also rape her? Stephen didn’t seem too surprised after Catherine told her side of the story. Is that why Stephen didn’t proceed with the syringe injection. So many questions and speculations.

This is a show that I will go back to watch later just to see if a missed something. I enjoyed the show and I hope you get a chance to watch it too. You will come away upset and angry but things like this happen in real life. Not sure if this will be worth a season two. What do you think?

Helen gets upset over the conversation with Sasha’s mom and hangs up angry. What did Sasha’s mom say to Helen to make her so upset? According to the flashbacks early on, Sasha left because her aunt was in an accident. What really happened between Sasha and Jonathan? We will never know.

Catherine and Robert are at the hospital talking with the doctor. Nicholas had a stroke and is in a coma. Even at the hospital, Robert is acting funny, so they take turns visiting Nicholas in ICU instead of going in together. Robert is still hurt and does not want to be around Catherine at all.

Stephen deletes his Instagram account. Robert calls Stephen to let him know that Nicholas is in the hospital in a coma. After the call, Stephen is pleased but not too happy that Nicholas is still alive. He prepares to go to the hospital to see Nicholas with a syringe filled with drain cleaner.

Flashback. Catherine is at the beach and sees a young man watching her. She gets very uncomfortable and gets up to leave with Nicholas. She was thinking it was nice to have someone look at her but that was her only thought. Catherine puts Nicholas to bed and decides to finish her night with a glass of wine. She goes downstairs to the bar to get a glass to go. When she looks up, the same young man is staring at her. She smiles politely but he then invites her to sit and have a drink with him. She doesn’t want to be rude, so she sits down for one drink. Now, does this sound like someone who is trying to seduce anyone?

Stephen gets to the hospital and after getting directions, he goes to see Nicholas. Just as he is about to put the syringe in his IV, Catherine comes up asking why he is there. Catherine pushes him away from Nicholas’ bed and Stephen falls over and hits his head. Catherine is escorted out and the nurses run to Stephen to help him up. After getting patched up, the nurse gives him some sleeping pills before letting him go.

Stephen gets home and later that night; he wakes up because he hears someone in his house. He goes to the door and the window is busted. He walks around to look for an intruder. He sees the patio door open, and there stands Catherine. She comes inside and takes a sit at the table while Stephen fixes them some tea. Stephen puts a sleeping pill in her cup before giving it to her. Catherine does not notice. She is there to tell her side of the story.

Has Stephen gone too far with his grief? What is he planning to do once Catherine continues to drink her tea and passes out? What does Catherine have to say to Stephen? She is not leaving his house until she tells her side of the story so let’s get to it!

Season One Episode Five V

This season will make you want to jump through the screen. I had to watch it again to make sure I didn’t miss anything or that I didn’t interpret anything the wrong way.

It starts with Catherine getting out of the taxi where she ends up at her mother’s house. Her mother has dementia and is thinking she is there because Robert was on a trip. After the incident with Robert kicking her out of the house, Catherine is drained and only wants to sleep so she goes to get into her mother’s bed. She wakes up in the middle of the night and begins to tell her sleeping mother the story of her time in Italy.

In the meantime, Stephen is watching the young college student set his computer up. Instead of setting up Facebook, the student sets him up with an Instagram account. Afterwards, Stephen is very pleased with himself.

Nicholas is shown at his parents’ house where he has just moved back in. He knows something is wrong between his parents but does not question it. He seems to be such an unhappy and angry person all the time. Not sure what that’s all about. He realizes that his parents do not have a clue who he really is and for now that’s okay. After dinner he watches Robert wash dishes but does not help. His father checks on him before bed and afterwards, Nicholas sneaks out of the house.

The next morning, Stephen waits outside of Catherine’s work looking for her assistant Jisoo. He sees her and walks into the office behind her. He gets her attention and starts ranting about how Catherine is a mean person and how she is harassing him. This sparks Jisoo’s attention and wants to know everything. Stephen gets up to leave acting like he does not want to explain himself. Stephen brought with him a bag of his book for everyone in the office. He leaves the bag behind. On his way home, he receives a friend request from Nicholas. Stephen is pleased.

Catherine takes the bus to work. On her way to work, she calls Nicholas who does not want to talk to her. Nicholas is very disrespectful to his mom. She gets there and everyone is cold towards her and staring. She sees some of them reading the book. She has a conversation with a coworker over the book and it does not go very well. As she walks out, she accidentally slaps him. Everyone is on their phone taking pictures. And the post goes viral. Catherine can’t catch a break right now. She is correct when she said that no one has the right to ask her about her personal life. Mind your business.

Nicholas receives a friend request on Instagram and accepts it. He reviews the page and is interested in Jonathan. He starts messaging him and excited that Jonathan is asking him for advice. Nicholas is also excited now because he thinks he has found a friend.

After Catherine leaves work, she goes to Stephen’s house. Catherine wants Stephen to hear her side of the story. He does not answer the door, so she leaves. Catherine goes back to her mother’s. Later that night, Nicholas calls her crying and then hangs up. She tries to call him back, but he does not answer.

Stephen does everything he can to keep Nicholas engaged on Instagram. He gets a knock on the door and it’s Catherine asking to speak with him. Stephen hides and does not answer the door. He then goes back to his Instagram page. Stephen is stringing Nicolas along and is ready to take the plunge. He starts asking Nicholas about the book. Jonathan replies with some comments. Stephen then tells Nicolas that he is the boy in the book. Nicolas is confused. Stephen starts sending him nude pictures of his Mom.

Stephen then goes out to meet Robert for dinner. Roberts starts apologizing to Stephen and how awful Catherine is. Stephen says he forgives him. Not sure why Stephen wanted to meet with Robert. Maybe Stephen went to see where Robert stood with his relationship was with Catherine. Stephen did learn that Robert put Catherine out of the house. That pleases Stephen.

After Nicholas sees the pictures, he goes back to the place where he gets his drugs from. He calls his mom crying and she cannot understand a word he is saying. He leaves his phone in the bathroom and goes to take his drugs. Nicholas passes out. What has happened to Nicholas? Did he overdose?

Stephen is getting his revenge but at what cost. Stephen is pleased with himself. Does he have the right to try to take revenge on Catherine after all these years. He never would have done this until he found that manuscript that Helen had written. Stephen is taking Helen’s word instead of knowing the entire story. How fair is that.

In this episode, you will not be happy about what you are about to learn. Try to get through it without getting too upset.

Flashback. Catherine and Jonathan having sex and afterwards, Jonathan takes more pictures of Catherine. Then Catherine asks Jonathan to pretend like he does not know her when they are in public. Okay, Ms. Lady with secrets. It’s a little to late for that.

Robert is still at the cafe reading the book. He pays his bill and finally heads off the work. He forgot he had a meeting and is late getting there. His assistant brings him an antacid so he can make it through the meeting. During the entire meeting, Robert is not paying attention but thinking about what he had just read in the book. After everyone realizes he is not paying attention, Robert gets up and leaves and goes back to his office. He then gets on the phone and calls Nicolas to meet up with him later.

Flashback. Stephen recalls when Jonathan dies and how Nancy went downhill and would not leave the house. Nancy stopped wanting to get dressed or leave the house. She eventually quits her job because she didn’t want to leave the house. Nancy was so obsessed at finding out if Jonathan was in pain when he died, that she filled the bathtub with water and put her head under the water. Stephen found her and thought she was trying to drown herself. The house became a mess because Nancy sat in Jonathan’s room all day. Nancy finally tells Stephen that she was moving into Jonathan’s room for good. They had found out that Nancy has cancer and was dying. Stephen took food up to her daily. Nancy died a few months later. Stephen buries her and now he is left alone.

Catherine also is in a meeting and not paying attention. Her assistant after the meeting lets Catherine know that she had found the man she was looking for. Catherine blows her off saying she no longer needs the information. Catherine later leaves the office and goes by a bookstore where she sees the book on display there. Catherine gets upset and leaves the store immediately and almost gets hit by a car.

Flashback. Jonathan is at the beach watching Catherine sunbathe. He is taking more pictures of her as she looks his way. Jonathan is obsessed with her. Catherine gets up and ask a woman near her to watch Nicolas. Jonathan follows her to a bathroom stall, and they have sex there. They finally began to leave the stall and Jonathan tells Catherine he is coming back to London with her. Catherine is shocked and tells him not to do it; she is furious that he thinks he can just follow her back home. Catherine realizes the Nicolas in alone and goes back to the beach. Catherine is back with Nicolas and decides to take a nap. She has not paid the child any attention all day. What is wrong with her. We know she is distracted with her own needs; not her child’s needs.

Catherine gets home and when she opens the door, there is a bag packed. She sees Robert and Nicolas in the kitchen eating. Robert proceeds to pretend like Catherine is going on a business trip and she is shocked. Robert then gets on the phone to call a taxi for her. She goes upstairs and sees her suitcase already packed for her to leave. She is devastated. She carries the bag downstairs and tries to talk to Robert, but he refuses to listen to her. I wasn’t expecting that but Robert is not playing with her. Where is she going to go?

Stephen meets up with his friend Justin and lets him know he wants to write another novel. Stephen ask Justin to help him set up a Facebook page about a dead boy. Justin is concerned but gives Stephen the name of someone who can set up the page for him.

Flashback. Catherine wakes up from her nap and discovers that Nicolas is gone along with the small boat he was playing in. She looks toward the sea and Nicolas has gone into the water and is too far out to get back. The current is taking the boat farther out into the sea. Catherine is yelling for help. Jonathan hears her and goes into the water to save Nicholas. Jonathan is fighting the currents to keep from going under. Others see what is happening and a group of men go into the water to get Nicolas safely to the shore. Meantime, Jonathan is still fighting the currents and begins to call for help. Catherine sees him stuggling but does not say a word. Someone else hears him calling for help and the same group of men swim out to rescue him. They bring Jonathan back to the shore, perform CPR on him but it is too late. Jonathan was dead. Catherine is looking on the entire time like she doesn’t even know who he is. Really? You have spent intimate moments with this man and yet your pretend like you don’t know him. What is she thinking? I’m thinking that now she does not have to worry about him following her back to London. Catherine then gets up and walks away with Nicolas in her arms.

So, this episode was tough to watch. We finally found out how Jonathan died. Catherine is a cold hearted person to just leave him there. Honestly, she really didn’t know too much about him but who would just leave like that. Would you leave or try to help? I would at least pretend to be concerned instead of just walking way. Maybe also she was concerned that Nicolas would see Jonathan and call his name. How are you feeling? What do you think of the episode?

From there Stephen and Nancy go to hotel where Jonathan was staying to gather his things. Later, Nancy wants to go to the place where Jonathan died; and to get more details about the accident.

He gets a text from Catherine about dinner but ignores it. He continues to review the pictures and then he remembers when the pictures could have been taken. Instead of heading home for dinner, he calls Nicolas to have dinner with him. Robert is too hurt to go home and maybe it’s a good thing he does not right then.

She starts to look at them and screams because she recognizes the woman in the pictures. Catherine starts to explain but Robert does not want to hear it.

Okay, very dramatic. Didn’t see that coming. I knew Robert would be upset but where is he going in the middle of the night? Show is starting to get interesting now.

Season One I

This show is about a popular tv journalist whose world is turned upside down by one event that happened in her past.

The first episode starts in the past with a young couple having a great time on their train ride to Italy. When they arrive, the couple begins their tour of the city, and the young man has a camera and is taking pictures of sites.

Present day shows Catherine at the Royal Television Society awards show where she wins best television journalist. She is happy she won and in her speech thanks everyone. Her husband, Robert wants to celebrate when they get home, and Catherine reluctantly has a glass of wine with him. Looking through the mail, she receives a novel. Later that night in bed, she begins to read it. After reading a few chapters, she all of a suddenly becomes ill and goes into the bathroom to throw up. What made her upset?

Stephen is a teacher and seems tired of his job. He looks retirement age but continues to work. His wife died nine years ago and he is still mourning the loss of her. He gets home from work and has a charity company finally come to pick up some of her things. He then decides to go into the bedroom where his wife slept during her illness. He discovers his wife’s purse and looks inside to find phones Jonathan had taken of a woman in the nude. There is a locked drawer at the desk, so he gets it open and finds a manuscript. He reads the entire manuscript and seems amazed at what he read. He takes it to a friend to read who then tells Stephen he need to publish it. Stephen then goes through the process of self- publishing it.

There are flashbacks throughout the episode that  turn out to be about Stephen’s son Jonathan. Jonathan has taken a gap year and traveled to Europe with his girlfriend. They explore all the sites together until she must leave to go back home. After leaving Florence, Jonathan writes to his mom that he is going to the beach area. At the beach one day he sees a beautiful woman with her son. Jonathan takes lots of pictures of her. At first the woman does not notice but later does and smiles at him.

This episode is slow but kept my interest. The flashbacks were at first confusing but eventually made sense. Now, I’m curious as to what will happen with the mysterious woman.

Yellowstone

Season One Episode One

Started watching this show on Peacock based on several recommendations I received over the years. I wasn’t quite ready for this show. Now, I’m more than ready and I’m hooked.

John Dutton is the typical country family man who will do everything to protect his family and his land. He has too much land that one man should not have. Comments were made that his land is the size of Rhode Island. That is so unbelievable. Maybe John has good intentions like leaving the land to his children and grandchildren. But who knows. I’m thinking it’s just greed.

Beth Dutton is the only daughter of John. I see her as reckless and out of control. There must be a good reason for her dislike in everything. Her main goal is to please her father. Is she interested in the land, probably not.

Jamie Dutton is one of the sons of John. He is a lawyer and handles all the family business legal and illegal. Whatever his Dad needs for him to do. I can’t quite figure him out yet.

Kayce is the youngest of John’s children. He is also reckless and gets in to trouble all the time. His temper is out of control, and he is very passionate about his family. He does not live on the Dutton Ranch but on the Indian reservation with his wife and son. How did he get there? And what is the reason.

The Dutton Ranch and the Indian Reservation are connected is so many ways. I’m looking forward to learning more in the upcoming episodes.
