Interior Chinatown 1.10

Willis, Willis Wu

Willis meets the Painted Faces, learns who they really are. He talks to Turner and Lana about what he found out about the Painted Faces. Willis and Turner later meet up with Green. The Port Harbor Police are after Willis. He has to run but then he gets a chance to explain it all to the reporters who are also there.

Everything comes to a head. Everyone (Willis, Lana, Turner, Green, Willis' parents, Fatty, Betty Wu, Uncle Wong, etc.) winds up at the Golden Palace. The video game plays a role in the ending but it doesn't resolve everything, nor does everything else.

The episode ends with Willis sitting at a desk, in front of a laptop, typing the end to a script. Lana walks in. Fade to black.

Thoughts

I really liked this episode I can see how it wouldn't do it for some people. It gets very meta and then there's the part where it doesn't resolve everything. Some people will probably see this as a cop out. I think I like it because it made me laugh and smile and then towards the end, when Willis is talking about his parents, it got me a bit emotional.

It was worth the time I invested in it but I don't think that everyone will agree with me or like it for the same reasons that I did.
