The conspiracy elements seem a bit redundant, and the paranormal side of the episode is a forced and inconsistent mess. Instead of developing something unique about Skinner, the episode dwells on what is already known or suggested, leaving the character in the same emotional place at the end as in the beginning."
The inclusion of conspiratorial themes in the episode feels unnecessary, and the supernatural elements are awkwardly integrated into the narrative, disrupting the flow. By focusing on previously established information rather than delving deeper into Skinner's personality, the episode fails to create meaningful emotional resonance.
