We may have gotten the answer to the long-simmering question as to why the townspeople don’t talk to one another during FROM Season 3 Episode 5. The town hall meeting was a hot mess from start to finish, leading to even more division, anger, and fright. And another casualty.
There’s always another casualty. Coming out of FROM Season 3 Episode 4 , you could sense that everyone was even more on edge, and that’s to be expected after the night they had. Holding a meeting, especially in light of Tabitha’s return, was the right call if only to avoid the inevitable whisper down the lane set to start immediately.
But when you get a bunch of frustrated and terrified people in a room, things devolve rather quickly. I’ve been wondering why no one talks to each other on a loop for what feels like years now, and it’s also a popular question among fans. You have all these different people experiencing different things, and no one sits down to talk to each other about them.
If they all started to compare notes, they could make connections and, if nothing else, get a deeper understanding of their surroundings. But that’s never really happened. Someone may talk to their significant other, like Jim and Tabitha.
Or Boyd and Donna will fill each other in, but those more extensive conversations never occur. Well, not before this hour. Considering everything Tabitha had just gone through, taking a day or two to decompress would have been more than understandable.
Still, she wanted to.
