The Strain, Season 3, Episode 2: Bad White



All the recap that should have stated the previous episode has now been pushed into this episode for some reason.

Anyway we catch up with the evil guy, Eldritch Palmer, who is super unhappy, His health is failing, Coco is dead, he has no-one around him he likes very much and Eichorst is taunting him and make him play subservient loyal follower

It doesn’t suit him well.

He’s been denied the White which is why his health his failing

His first option is to pay some unethical scientists to experiment on vampires and sick people to try and discover the White. It doesn’t work – it does kill people and eventually the scientists walk away because they can’t tolerate the terribad things he’s making them done

That leaves making a deal with Abraham to see if he will share… Abe considers it but, ultimately, knows better than to trust Palmer – though in the process Vasiliy learns about the white and Abraham’s use, it’s going to be interesting to see how he manages this.

Abe, meanwhile, is still trying to translate the Lumen and not really achieving a great deal. While his own health is beginning to fail – much to Vasiliy’s obvious concern. Quinlan is frustrated by them not actually doing anything and then Ephraim shows up

Ephraim has spent a long time to tell them about Nora and Zack – and Quinlan is duly suspicious of the delay while Abe is all sympathetic while warning Ephraim that the Master has an evil nefarious plan involving Zach. Well duh.
