The DSR - Episode 3x08 - Schism

A great episode. This one seemed like it might have been another one of those 'trying something new' episodes, especially considering we were at no point in present time. Surprisingly enough, I enjoyed this one though. I'm usually not a big fan of these types of episodes (like in 2x12, the Cole Travers episode), but I will say that I honestly liked this one.

I'm surprised by how much of this insight we suddenly get into Quinn and his surroundings. So the Schism is pretty much an ancient and secret group that he is a part of, and I guess even Kovas might be to. The big thing is, why such a big secret that needs to be murdered over and can't be found out about, even by The DSR? Thats my big question right now.

I also liked how this episode had the big secret villian type deal. Never in a million years would I have guessed it was the girl that payed them, but then again, we can't forget that it was Kovas who apparently convinced her to do so and even gave her the money for it in the first place.

Overall, I surprised myself by enjoying this, in particular over other experimental episdes... It wasn't the hgih point of the season by far, but it gave a bunch of good information that we've wanted to here from the previous episode, and also gave us a few new questions.
