Yeah, look, Eve's Plot Ex Machina is gonna Plot Ex Machina. "Eve, Gloves Off". *Eve degloves them* "NOT LIKE THAT, OH GOD!"
Negan did great.
Valentine memes are gonna be great next year.
Train Scene 2: Shock Wave Malibu was a fun little addition. Conquest just had to telegraph it.
Frankly, there were a lot of callbacks to Season 1 Episode 8, grinding in the fact that Mark was outclassed here.
Conquest's treatment of Oliver was amazing, particularly that first bounce off the pavement, but also just in how they structured the "Oliver tries to chase after them, and can't even keep up with them."
And oh god, Conquest slowly moving into a run then tackling early on, before one of the better action scenes? Oh, that felt good.
Damn good execution overall. Helluva fight. Eve even got her moment in the sun before she was Icarus'd all over the floor. Then she became the sun. Kinky. I really hope all the weird scaling folks remember that Conquest ripped her armor off almost delicately (without hurting her) before he Conquested her face and stomach. He was clearly still playing with his food, which fits everything else we've seen about the character.
I wouldn't have minded the Monster Girl/Robot gag of covering eyes at Eve. They set up the joke, and didn't really show much beyond Cecil's reaction, i think, which feels like a shame. No, I'm not talking about Eve, I'm talking about the full cast. They're almost all literally frozen.
