'American Gods' season 2 episode 3 review: Mad Sweeney's luck runs out as Laura follows Wednesday in hopes of recharging her decaying body

In the episode, Mad Sweeney and the dead wife (Laura) split after Wednesday tempts her with a chance to recharge her decaying body
PUBLISHED MAR 25, 2019

Over the last episode of 'American Gods', we saw Shadow Moon's (Ricky Whittle) past, with the dead wife, Laura (Emily Browning) putting all her efforts into rescuing her husband with the help of Mad Sweeney (Pablo Schreiber), the leprechaun, while Wednesday (Ian McShane) and Mr Nancy (Orlando Jones) headed out to carry out their own mission.

Towards the end of the episode, the dead wife and the leprechaun found out where Shadow was being held and Wednesday did pull a trick of his own to help Shadow escape.

In continuation, you would have expected Wednesday to be there for Shadow when he wakes up and bring him back, but when has Wednesday ever done what was expected of him?
