She Was Killed by Space Junk
FBI Agent Laurie Blake is tasked with investigating the death of Judd Crawford. There are doubts that the Seventh Kavalry killed Crawford. Her boss wants to send a team of agents with her but she only takes one, a very junior agent, Dale Petey. They arrive just in time for the funeral.
The funeral gets interrupted by a man in a Rorschach mask who has explosives attached to his body. He warns them that the explosives will detonate if he is killed. He demands that Senator Keane come with him. Agent Blake shoots and kills the man in the Rorschach mask.
Something on his body starts beeping. Angela quickly drags the dead man's body over to the open grave and pushes him in. She drops Crawford's coffin on top of it. The explosives detonate moments later.
Adrian Veidt works on a project. His project gets another one of his servants killed. Veidt angers one of his neighbors, the Game Warden, after Veidt shoots and kills a buffalo. Veidt receives a warning letter from the Game Warden and responds in kind.
Agent Blake finds Angela investigating the secret passage that the would be killer used to infiltrate the funeral. They talk.
Laurie leaves a message for Doctor Manhattan, by phone. It is a lengthy message. She starts to record it at the very beginning of the episode. She finishes her message at the end of the episode. A car falls from the sky and lands in front of her when she leaves the booth where the message is getting recorded.
Thoughts
I'm not sure what to make of the title. Who was killed by space junk? Laurie wasn't. It makes me think of Nope (2022).
Adrian Veidt's identity is finally made explicitly clear. He says his name while dictating a letter to one of his assistants.
Angela isn't in the first 20 minutes of the episode. It is mostly Laurie Blake's episode.
I like this episode but I feel like I probably missed things.
