Yes

Yep

Yes

Yes

Yes

Yes

Yes, despite the poor direction and ruining a great episode.

Yes

Yes

HECK yes, he's great all along.

Yes

Yes

Even just beyond the character story (which I enjoyed but is more than a bit messy), his body language and acting is perfection.

^

Yes

No.

The reveal at the end undermines the whole premise. He gets to play the game with no consequences because... he's rich. Ugh. We all know that's how the world really works, we didn't need a reminder that the game of life is rigged. Way to ruin an otherwise excellent character.

No

Yeah though barely. The reveal almost completely ruined the character for me but it's still a small yes

^

Yes, but only because of the marble episode.

Yes
