That being said, just because this week’s installment left me as breathless as an asthmatic attempting to summit Everest, don’t think I’m going to turn a blind eye to the major fumble. You know what I’m talking about: Mara’s big reveal.  While I waffled as to what I felt regarding Mara’s big reveal, there was no doubt in my mind as to the excellence of where they went with Charlotte. Of course she’s got the answers for how to solve things! She is literally thousands of years old! Like any good finale (mid-season or otherwise) the problem of Mara being solved involved a major loss. The idea that Audrey would have to put herself (and thus, her goodness) into Mara was gut-wrenching. But you know what was more gut-wrenching? Charlotte tacitly deciding that her “bad” daughter was too far gone and shoving her ass into the thinny, whaaaaaaaaaat? I love the concept that Mara’s been put back inside of Audrey – the idea that Parker has a little bit of bad in her is thrilling and provides of lots potential options regarding story – perhaps options that somehow tie into the whole Dave and Vince and Croatan thing? That would be nice. Other things I’d love to see include Duke maybe not ending every cliffhanger episode by seizing. I was delighted to learn that his Trouble had been turned off, but to follow that up with an immediate illness just had me rolling my eyes. Which, you know, meant that I did take the fact that Duke just gave every single person in Haven a Trouble as seriously as I should have. But hey, no one’s perfect!
