This show begins with the worst beginning of any show. A flash forward. Everybody hates those, I know, but sit through it.
It begins as an episode of The Flight Attendand, so if you haven't turned off the telly after the flash forward, you probably will now. Don't. Sit through it.
Then, as you notice that Weir is a pawn in a complex game of chess, you remember that pawn in German is Bauer.
Then, as you notice this pawn is setting a complex trap, you remember the word for fish trap. Weir.
The bauer becomes the weir. The hunted becomes the hunter.
Now you are in the right mindset for this show which is the most well written mystery since the early episodes of Lost.
Love it.
