Miranda's visit to the Santa Barbara home of Doña Taliña and Victor Blake was pretty strange. What did you make of Taliña's obsession with Miranda at the time? Victor's odd behavior?

I thought she was really strange. She seemed obsessed with Miranda and the whole Mayan culture. In my opinion, Victor just seemed jealous of the attention that Miranda was getting from his wife. I couldn't figure him out.

It was over the top bizarre and Miranda should have felt more uncomfortable than she did. Because she felt flattered, things got more out of hand than they should have. Victor was menacing and Adrien was right to try to get her out of there. I really couldn't figure out what was up with these two. It felt like something other than jealousy.

The shamanism combined with obsession made me very uncomfortable. So did the detailed Mayan buildings.

The whole set up had me on edge, especially how Talina reacted to Fletch and her obvious obsession with Miranda. Very strange. I didn't know what Talina was setting her up for.
