Agreed about Burt and Irving. The Dylan storyline is maybe my favorite, and I thought the stuff with Helly’s Dad is interesting. But the Milchuk plot has been phenomenal and the episode was worth it just for the “devour feculence” line.
I think at a minimum next week we find out what Cold Harbor is, with some obvious cliffhangers. But on the while this season has been about four episodes of material stretched to 10.

Either they have a chaotic season finale with a lot happening, or they dump a bunch into the next season.
The best thread in the episode was Burt and Irving. Those two are so good. It could have been in the previous episode. I hope Irving is not really gone.
Sorry, I lost interest in Dylan (critical to this episode). And never had interest in the young Miss Huang, other than wondering what was the point of the near-kid. I expect there to be some revelation about her in the finale, such as she was born inside or was severed as a child or is tied to Gemma.
Will Helly be pregnant with Mark's child? That could lead to quite a subplot.
