A disturbing entry that turns the asset limitation into an asset for the narrative. Stark, bleak, empty, and just not quite right. Noah is all the warmth in the room, which certainly gives the ending its impact.
On that ending, there are two wildly different interpretations I see supported by the narrative. I am left unsure if one was intended or if August's fate is open-ended. Though, spoilers, neither outcome sounds good for him.
