When Kate confronts Jacob after the prayer, he tells Kate that her mother just has another migraine. Back at the pool, Kate wants to know what Jacob is hiding and so do we. Whatever it is, I can’t see Jacob being responsible for his wife’s death. That doesn’t wash with the faithless preacher. Ultimately, it’s going to have to come back to something that was out of his control and in “God’s hands.” God failed Jacob and his family, at least that’s what he believes. Spitball idea… (and while I know this review is way late, I haven’t seen Episodes 5 or 6 yet) Jacob’s wife has an incurable disease, she wants Jacob to kill her, and he refuses. They fight about it in the car, she becomes enraged, slapping at him (hence the cuts) and while defending himself, trying to calm her down, the car accident occurs. It’s cliché, but reference Seth and Richie’s past. Throughout Kate’s time at the pool, Seth and Richie are busy. They dupe the clerk and get the Fullers’ room number. Keeping on task, they find Scott and Jacob alone, barge in, and take over. I really missed Seth saying, “It’s called a punch.” Richie is dispatched to the pool to get Kate while Seth schools Jacob in acting lessons. The scene played better in the movie, mostly because Seth is cool and Jacob is resistant and they have to play “who’s the boss.” It’s toned down here a bit, and I’m finding more and more the tamer versions aren’t doing the movie justice. I also think it’s because there’s no respect between Jacob and Seth in the show, at least none that’s evident. In the movie, the two respected each other almost from the beginning. Richie catches up with Kate at the pool and strikes up an easy conversation with her.
