S3E3 - What Was Left
A paved over parking lot where there was once a home, a radio tower that once seemed tall enough to touch the sky, and memories that linger long after the years have passed. Invisible connections link Metropolis West, Cair Mallplex, and Glasshouse--and what's been left in each of them will have to be reckoned with.
Trigger warnings for references to family death, grief, neglect, poverty, cults, diaspora, protests, police presence and police brutality (specific references to protest disruption tools), chase sequence, uncertainty (could be read as gaslighting.)
