I don’t know if it’s just me binging horror movies lately, but the disclaimer at the start of Ep. 7 had me
shook. Thought the subject matter was going to be way more fukked up than what we ended up getting.
Ep. 9 is the one that stood out to me the most between Uncle Naseem’s arc finally coming to a close and Ramy’s “coming to Earth” moment. Him, Naseem, and Farouk fighting for the receipt had me dying and felt like a Curb episode until the gun came out. And as much of his misfortune was earned, hearing Ramy beg his uncle to shoot him was rough.
Mo’s show on Netflix is a gem and I hope he continues to be a mainstay here. Him and Ahmed getting more spotlight was a plus. Ahmed’s wife, Yasmina, surprised the shyt out of me with that hijab off.
So glad they didn’t go where I thought they would with Bella Hadid’s character. Swear I’d have my fists clenched like the Arthur meme if Ramy finessed himself with another baddie.
