If only Manousos had made it to New Mexico a few weeks earlier as he intended, then he and Carol might have been on the same page — but it was fun to see them argue about it and then ultimately get there, and we’re very much looking forward to season two to find out what happens next.

We thought this ep was a deeper exploration of Carol’s character, and how she’s not only immune to the pod people virus, but also to allowing herself to feel happy even when everything is going well. Hmm, maybe that is why she’s immune to the virus (except Air Force One-guy doesn’t seem to have that problem). Anyway, this ep was a joy to watch, and to podcast on, and we hope you enjoy!Next up on Pluribus: S1E4 “Please, Carol”. Let us know your thoughts! You can email or send a voice message
