Warning: Full spoilers for the episode below.
Man, I guess it wouldn't truly feel like a season of The Leftovers without an episode chronicling the ongoing crucible of poor "One Step Forward, Two Steps Back" Matt Jamison. Season 1's "Two Boats and a Helicopter," which came just three episodes into the series and dropped most of the characters who we considered to be a part of the main core cast, was a standout. And "No Room at the Inn" was as well. Though, I suppose, it wasn't as much of a revelation as our first encounter with Matt's rough, weary life as this show's own stand-in Job.
No, "No Room at the Inn" (taken from the biblical hardship/inconvenience that placed the Virgin Mary in the manger instead of a comfy bed) wasn't going to match the overall greatness of "Two Boats in a Helicopter" if only because this was our second go round with Matt's exhausting, punishing life. So, bottom line, it's not a new tale. We've run this emotional gauntlet before. But this episode still was able to take Matt's new Miracle/Jarden situtation and turn it into something uniquely awful - while also being sadly sweet and beautiful.
