This episode really devoted its focus to Benny and the concept of the white savior, something he took as a positive thing rather than for the negative trope it’s always been, especially in media. His cluelessness is a big part of this show, and that’s why it worked well for him to march in and try to achieve things that the tribe wasn’t necessarily interested in and ultimately make it worse by failing to do so. Sheila might have had more fun with him if she didn’t find him so completely and intolerably irritating, and she nearly got him to simply walk away and not turn back, something that astounded the chief. Sheila’s admission of an enjoyment of scalping people made things a bit less serious, but I suppose I’ve never accused this show of being serious when it often devolves to immature humor in its mockery of how society functions and explains away its prejudices as just part of the way things are. While Benny wasn’t missed back at the camp, I did miss on a focus on the new hot couple who are eager to spend plenty of time together even though the circumstances of their close-quartered travel don’t quite allow for it. With just three episodes left in this particular anthology, I want to see what happens with Ezekiel and Prudence since I’m sure that both Daniel Radcliffe and Geraldine Viswanathan will go on to have great roles in the future, potentially even on this show, but I really like these two characters and would love to see them get whatever counts for a happy ending in this show’s universe.
