Just checking in to let you know that I really am watching this, albeit a little delayed. I think they've done a pretty good job of setting the stage so far, mixing backstory with interesting current developments so that the audience is never bored.

I have to say though that I couldn't finish this episode. The minute I saw that little girl and her fluffy dog on the screen, it all came rushing back to me how sick and horrified I felt the first time I watched this part of the story. It's somehow worse when I have to watch her being all cute and adorable, knowing what is going to happen. I had to turn it off, because I felt so ill. Hopefully next episode will be not quite as disturbing.
