Love seeing Anthony Edwards in anything, great seeing him here. Mostly character building, nothing too unnecessary. Donnie doesn't feel well, Lara lets go of everything. The episode keeps the previous episodes momentum, for the most part.

[7.2] breakfast straight to good night bed

Warning: Spoilers
Episode 9: A developing episode, nothing very special, good interesting conversations, lacking momentum, drama, thrill, whatever makes an episode enthralling. It is dragging a little bit too much and I'm beginning to think that maybe a 10-episode season would have been more suited and would have contributed to a more engaging pace.
Also the passing of time or "timelines" (day, night, in-between) are horrible (as always) and shows disastrous editing.

The leading men see themselves as heading to a better life. At the beginning of the episode, for Chuck 'Eldorado' is near. Axe thinks that buying that Kemlot shares will get him, you know, to the mythical Camelot.
Even, when defeat is near, Axe and Chuck resort to cajoling metaphors. Axe fantasizes about giving his deserting traders the 'Misery' treatment while Chuck wants to imitate Wall Street's risk management by collateralising.
But the reality is different and grim.
Pressure is building at the Rhoades' and the Axelrod's marriage. The fallout from Bobby's 9/11 misdeeds poisons Lara's relationship with friends and family. And the lies on recusing himself from the case is eroding Wendy's patience with Chuck.
Meanwhile Donnie, the double agent, is going awol, looking for inner peace and catching a deadly virus. The case against Axe which seemed rock-solid two episodes ago is tanking as is Axe's counter strategy.
Both Axe and Chuck have their backs against the walls, and this is a good sign for the last quarter of the season.
