Once again, the creators nailed it. Rodrigo's evolving mental state was a fascinating journey to follow, and honestly, after everything he's been through, who could blame him? The plot maintained a nice, steady pace, the atmosphere was on point, and that ending... well, let's just say it left me itching to dive right into the next season.
