***The following is a detailed recap of the season three finale of FROM, “Revelations: Chapter Two,” and it contains spoilers for the episode.***

Tonight, FROM closed out the third season as promised answering big questions. The episode was fast-paced but also left a lot of time for emotional character scenes.

The search for Fatima is of course the main part of the story. I was glad that Ellis picked up on Elgin’s deception right away. I still wonder though that Elgin, since he does seem to be such a nice guy, didn’t at all question what he was doing or that it could hurt Fatima. At least Sara didn’t want to kill Ethan, regardless that she tried to. Elgin almost seems to be under a spell.

I was really surprised that Boyd went through with torturing Elgin to find out Fatima’s location. I appreciated that Father Khatri showed up to attempt to get him to think it through, regardless of whether he’s actually in Boyd’s mind or not. I’m honestly not sure if Boyd can come back after this. He really in my opinion crossed a line and is completely unraveling. What surprised me more though was that so many people stood by and let it happen, especially Kenny and Donna. I expected them to try to stop Boyd. Regardless, the scenes were very powerful and I found it almost hard to watch, because Harold Perrineau is so brilliantly scary in the scenes. In this instance, when Acosta (Dani!) comes into Colony House, she is the voice of reason, and I think it’s also super important that she stands up to Boyd when no one else does. In the end though I loved that Sara took over and what she said to Elgin. She really believes it’s too late for her, and I do believe she really was trying to protect Boyd. I also enjoyed the previous foreshadowing of what she did to Elgin. As soon as she picked up the screwdriver, I remembered Jade’s vision of the man with the railroad spike through his eye and knew that’s where it was going. So many things in this town are cyclical. I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that something similar happened to him in the past.

***The following is a detailed recap of episode 309 of FROM, “Revelations: Chapter One,” and it contains spoilers for the episode.***

Boyd and Ellis are looking for Fatima. It’s getting dark, but Ellis doesn’t want to leave without her. Boyd tells him she is safe because she has the talisman, but Ellis doesn’t think she would just leave. Boyd tells him that they can come back in the morning. Boyd’s hand starts to shake, and then he stumbles and almost falls. Ellis helps him.

Fatima is in the root cellar. Elgin comes in with a bag of stuff to help her be more comfortable. Fatima asks him to let her go. He says she’s not a prisoner; it’s for her own good. He’s trying to protect her. She tells him she saw the thing that’s been speaking to him, and what’s she’s saying isn’t true. The thing inside her isn’t good and won’t do good things. She says to look what happened to Tilly. He tells her that that happened because the baby was scared and hungry. He tells her she has to stop fighting. Elgin tells her she needs to eat, and then the stronger the baby will be, and before she knows it, she will be going home – they all will. He tells her that the baby helped them once – the night he found out she was pregnant he remembered his dream, and that helped Boyd save the town. He gives her the jar of his blood and tries to get her to drink it. He says she helped him so much when he got there and please to let him help her. He gets her to drink some of it.

***The following is review/breakdown followed by a detailed recap of episode 308 of FROM, “Thresholds,” and it contains spoilers for the episode.***

Episode 3.08, “Thresholds,” is in my opinion, one of the best of the season so far, on par with the premiere episode. We get major developments heading into the last two episodes of season three.

The main thread of the story is what Ellis and Boyd should do with Fatima. Boyd wants to cover it up, which I think is a mistake. I appreciate that Boyd wants to protect his family, but he’s not thinking about the safety of the town, which includes his son, nor the ramifications of what could happen. Donna is 100% right. It’s one thing to live in the town and hide from the creatures, but people won’t be okay with an unknown murderer among them. It would ultimately be a witch hunt for Sara, who in this case is innocent. However, even if somehow he could convince the people that Sara is innocent, which isn’t likely, people would be scared because they wouldn't know who to trust. It would breed fear, and people would start defending themselves and eventually going on the offense, feeling threatened. They could end up hurting or killing each other, because they can't trust each other. I think the best way forward would have either been to find a way to convince people it was an accident, or perhaps make it look like Tilly tried to leave at night, and they would assume she was killed. The other solution, which no one wants to see, would be to make it look like the creatures killed her, but I would worry they might retaliate. In the end, some version of the truth was probably, in my opinion, the best option. I also do not believe that Acosta will just let it go, unless they somehow brought her in on what was going on. Regardless, I do think Boyd should have listened more to what Donna said. Boyd is becoming less of a good leader, whereas Donna would make a better one, because she thinks of the town first.
