And just like that, we’re thrown into World War 1 trenches. With a few lethal weapons, finally. The standard fare: pistol, assault rifle, shotgun. We also meet Mads Mikkelsen character, whom we see in BB’s interludes. He cosplays Apocalypse Now. It’s a nice boss fight, were he summons WW1 soldiers, and you need to beat him a couple of times before you’re teleported back.
Then we meet Mama (Margaret Qualley). She had a stillborn dauther, and now she’s attached to that ghost-child.
That’s why she cannot leave the compound. She also has a twin sister, Lockne, and the child is actually her’s, Mama was a surrogate mother. She asks Sam to sever the cord, so she could travel and see her sister, but when she does, turns out Mama was dead all along, but now she finds her peace, reunited with Lockne.
Lockne’s eyes also change color: one remains yellow, one turns blue, like Mama’s.
That’s all very imaginative, if only the episode wouldn’t be so boring. At one point you have to deliver Mama all across the map, 10km of rough terrain, some 20 minutes of real time.
