On a scale of one to ten, how bad are things out there, asks Caroline, hoping the numerical rating will help steel her for whatever news is forthcoming. News about the horrors going on in the world. In her city. Her neighborhood. Just outside her front gate.
There’s a slight air of 'too soon' as Caroline and Roland realize that there's some kind of infection poisoning the world, causing panic, closing stores, grounding planes, and halting Chicago's all important train lines. Caroline and Roland have vibed with each other at parties and clubs but are finally getting together to move forward on the flirtatious connection they share.
Yes, his name is mentioned. This isn’t some pretend era we're dealing with. Holter plops us down in real-time, arming his characters with phrases like “lamestream right-wing media” and having Caroline rail against kids in cages, closed borders, and loss of reproductive rights. Caroline’s neighbor Josephine comes over to check on her, eager to share the one website that has the real scoop on what’s happening. Forget the news, forget Facebook or any other social media platform, Josephine says. They are all lying or otherwise controlled. Her site is the only one telling the truth.And a brutal truth it is. Sickness, death, attacks. Things you need to arm yourself against.
From a rom-com point of view, the connection between Caroline and Roland feels far too thin to withstand what Holter throws at it. From a horror scenario, there are dumb decisions in every classic slasher narrative. Still, knowing how many of us felt/behaved at the outset of the pandemic, the dumb decisions here felt idiotic.
