This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we discuss the latest reveal that Amalia may, in fact, be from another timeline, and the body she inhabits may not be her own. However, it’s Myrtle’s deciphering the message hidden in Mary’s son that has the most emotional impact as Amalia learns that she’s not as alone as she fears. Though all signs point to Lord Massen as the man behind Mary’s murder, it’s still not clear if someone’s influencing him.
