What an interesting night opener. I couldn’t tell you where the story is going.

Thoughts

The only thing I am pretty sure about is that he will not end up as an ophthalmologist. Maybe he will make it with baseball (I doubt that as well) or it will end in something completely unrelated but somehow inspired by the stuffed animal seller.
Speaking of which, the guy comes across as really creepy. And on top of the animals being strange themselves, them also having stains all over, only one eye, and cotton coming out of them is close to a horror story at the moment XD.

I’m really looking forward to next week.

I agree, it is very hard to see where this is going. My only impression (prediction…;)) is that the characters weird precognition is going to come back and be significant

Ooh I wasn’t sold on the very beginning of this, but when we got to the unusual stuffed animal seller my interest was piqued. I’m very curious to see how it develops and if there’s going to be any relationship between the MC’s family connection to ophthalmology and this man’s damaged eye :eye: :cross_mark:

Well I am quite a few weeks behind, but determined to catch up! Just finished week 7 and am equally curious about where this one will go. Quite enjoying the setup
