'Mr. Mercedes' season 2 episode 7 review: Brady Hartsfield throws the first punch at Hodges in a nai

The latest episode of the Stephen King adaptation offers a massive payload for fans invested in the show thus far.

[Spoiler Alert: The following review discusses key plot details from episode 7 of the second season of Mr. Mercedes. Proceed at your own risk!]

Easily the most explosive and nail-biting episode of the season so far, the latest episode of Audience Network's 'Mr. Mercedes', titled 'Fell On Black Days' finally starts to converge all the elements that have been steadily building for the last six episodes.

The noose tightened around Dr. Felix Babineau (Jack Huston) and his wife Cora in as the power-hungry, overachieving couple's devious plans were foiled by Detective Bill Hodges (Brendan Gleeson). In a desperate move, Dr. Babineau performs an unsanctioned craniectomy on Brady to try and make him responsive before he and Cora face the music for their Frankenstein-ian plans. Unfortunately for the Babineaus, things don't go as planned and in a scene that finally gives much-required depth to the two characters, we see their marriage fall apart at the seams as Cora packs her bags and plans to ditch Felix, leaving him alone to take the fall for the experiments on Hartsfield's brain.
