![]() ![]() In this dream state, she wanted and actually did, tell her younger self to leave the apartment one day earlier than she did and if she would just have done that, Kristen would be better for it. She even, evidently, desired to alter her past reality so that her life would have turned out differently. What happens at Frank’s clearly added to the traumatic moments in Kristen’s formative years enough so much that in her older years she sought to reexamine and overthink it over and over. Well, this ends up being a story about trauma and how, if experienced at an early age, can affect and shape one’s adult life. Why did she need to revisit those memories? We obviously needed to see what transpired at Frank’s to fill in the gaps of why Jeevan and Kristen left the space and without Jeevan’s brother. But why? Even as the story unfolded, I was stuck on that question. Her younger self leads her back to Frank’s high-rise apartment. As a result, her mind wanders and her younger self appears in the woods where she dropped. She is down, vulnerable, and in need of medical attention if she is to survive. It is explained easily enough, but the questions still remain. So, how & why does she return there, and to what end? I should have known, being the type of show that it is, that Kristen was not literally going back. Then, upon watching #6, “Survival Is Insufficient”, I thought surely the Red Bandanas that captured her weren’t HQ’ed way back at the apartment. Yeah, I was pondering why she would go way off The Wheel and return to Chicago. When I first learned I was covering this particular episode I focused on the simple description that accompanied it – Kirsten goes back to the apartment she once shared with Jeevan and Frank.
