Review: The Halo TV series' seventh episode wraps up some plots

Madrigal and many of its characters are reduced down in a surprisingly straightforward episode.

As the first season of the Halo TV series begins to draw to a close, the show dedicates a whole episode to dealing with characters and plotlines across Insurrectionist-controlled Madrigal. Despite some wariness at an episode that doesn't really feature the UNSC or Covenant, it ends up wrapping things up well, if perhaps a bit too quickly.

Kwan and especially Soren get to shine in this episode, while the tyrannical Vinsher is entertaining to watch, if nothing else. While it's not the most exciting episode so far — Episode 5 still holds that title by a long shot — it's good to see the show allay my fears that the story of Madrigal was going nowhere.
