Anyway, let’s skydive into the series premiere!
We don’t linger too long in this moment because it’s time to get to the action!
It’s very clear they didn’t spare any expense here.

Interestingly enough, the premiere is rather light on the action.
Sam convinces Sarah that they should apply for one more loan to help them turn the business around.
I enjoyed the entire loan system saga for a couple reasons.
First, it presented Sam with an interesting obstacle.
Plus, it was hilarious watching Bucky go on a date.
I must say, I really enjoyed the action scene.
It paid off I think!
I was locked in the whole time.
Maybe I’m crazy but I even got some anime vibes from this sequence?
Don’t worry, no innocents were harmed by all these explosions and gunfire!
We’ll see how it goes from here I guess.
Bookending the episode, I was almost as tense with the final sequence as I was watching the opening.
The military’s arrogant response to Sam’s humility hit me hard.
I love regret, and the possibility of redemption!
