'Mr. Mercedes' season 2 episode 4 review: Bill Hodges' worst fears about Brady Hartsfield come true
[Spoiler Alert: The following review discusses key plot details from episode 4 of the second season of Mr. Mercedes. If you haven't watched the episode yet, proceed at your own risk!]
The fourth installment from the new season of Audience Network's Stephen King adaptation 'Mr. Mercedes' does not waste any time picking up right where the previous episode left off. The episode opens to the scene of nurse Sadie MacDonald’s tragic suicide, who we saw in the previous episode as the first mind-controlled victim of Brady Hartsfield (Harry Treadaway).
There's no time for a montage and a nice Neil Young opening track this time, but the episode still continues to showcase its fine music collection, contrasting Bill Hodges' (Brendan Gleeson) classical taste with Brady's punk preference for chaotic punk rock. In one scene, we get to see Brady meditating in his mind-cave to what sounds like The Ramones in the background.
