***The following is review/breakdown followed by a detailed recap of episode 306 of FROM, “Scar Tissue,” and it contains spoilers for the episode.***
The episode had a few really important scenes when it came to the mystery, but most of the episode was more just about moving the story forward.
The episode opens with Tabitha and Jim arguing. This scene really highlights that Jim is doing a very bad job parenting. He acts like it was so difficult for him to take care of the kids when she was only gone a few days, which she points out, but even in those few days, Jim did not take care of his kids. He ran off, more than once, even if it was to go after Tabitha. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t feel that Tabitha should have left originally either, but the kids weren’t alone when she left. Jim repeatedly left Julie to take care of Ethan alone, and in fact Ethan almost died in the first episode when he ran out at night when they were once again, alone. I did enjoy, however, Tabitha yelling at him for it, even if she hasn’t been the world’s best mother either. It sounds like from what Julie said before that neither of them were really around after Thomas died. We do in the scene get a bit more insight though into how Tabitha is still affected by the town meeting from the episode before. I did also enjoy when they are screaming, and you hear the creature scream from outside. Julie thankfully was just over it and is letting her mother know that they are affected by their arguments, and this time probably everyone heard them. Even Ethan is aware they are having issues.
There is a very interesting conversation with Jade and Boyd at the bar while he’s talking about the numbers from the bottle tree. It’s always great when characters share information, and I love seeing Jade trying to piece it together, because I always feel like he represents the fans trying to figure out the series. Jade says that it is possible that the place Tabitha went to in Maine occupies the same space as the lighthouse and that it’s not so much as a wormhole but a dimensional rift. This theory actually could hold some weight, especially because there are two bottle trees in the real world like there are in the town, which makes me think they are in the same place as well. If you think about what happened to Dale, it’s the same thing: two objects in the same space, but he got stuck on the way. I am also very curious if the one bottle tree in Maine, the one Tabitha and Henry never made it to, could have possibly been a faraway tree in the real world, but at this point we may never know.

In tonight’s all-new episode of FROM, while Jade (David Alpay) continues to try to put the clues together, he talks to who appears to be Tom the Bartender (Reid Price) about Tabitha (Catalina Sandino Moreno)’s visions and how they must mean something, yet he doesn’t seem to trust what he himself sees. Recently, when SciFi Vision spoke with Alpay, he talked about why he thinks that might be. “I wonder if maybe there's a chance that because Jade is aware that he's seeing Tom the Bartender, and he's aware that he's having these hallucinations, that maybe he's not the most trustworthy narrator of his own sort of inner monologue,” explained the actor to the site. “It's like at what point do the things that I'm seeing cease to be helpful, and at what point are they delusions that are taking me off the right path?”

Hulu’s annual Huluween celebration continues tonight with an original horror comedy, Carved. The film is set on Halloween 1993, when the staff of a historic pioneer village attraction must work together to survive a relentless assault by a monstrous killer pumpkin set on revenge. Genre fans won’t want to miss this brisk (94 minutes!), well-made film, which will make you think twice about visitng the pumpkin patch this weekend.
While not quite as fast paced as last week, the story did move forward in the fifth episode. Throughout it, the pressure is clearly becoming worse for Boyd as he snaps at everyone around him, although usually with good reason. I feel like as much as everyone looks to Boyd for the answers, with both not dealing well with the food crisis, and then what happened to Tian Chen, people may have become less apt to trust his plans without question, which is really shown throughout the episode, starting with Randall.
