Watching Sam prepare to hang himself out of desperation caused by the isolation he feels also moves Mohamad to action, but again, it’s difficult to feel empathy for the man who collected the fingers of his victims even before he became a vampire. That said, the flashback to Mohamad’s first encounter with Sam and the intimate details of their backstory explain exactly what drew these two together in the first place. Theoretically, Vanessa can turn Mohamad back, and though he can once again add value to Team Vanessa, he’s not the missing piece to the puzzle. What roles do Sam and Mohamad play now that the story has moved in a different direction? Sam’s a murderous sociopath, so turning him back makes no sense, and while killing him ultimately will bring some satisfaction, at this point, his death doesn’t really do much. Now that Scarlett and the others are aware of the black helicopters, and Vanessa has actually been inside BlackTek, there’s no going back to the old days of simply bobbing and weaving through scores of vampires on the way to Denver. As part of the overall arc, however, it falls short in providing much meaningful narrative movement. In isolation it presents a compelling character study that uncovers some of the dark layers of Sam’s childhood, and at least partially explains his deep connection with Mohamad. Directed by Jonathan Scarfe (Axel Miller), “Be True” finds itself in an awkward predicament. And yet, the adventures of Sam and Mohamad no longer hold enough allure to carry the evening by themselves.
Van Helsing Season 2 Episode 11Īfter last week’s revelatory bottle episode in which Vanessa learns some harsh truths about her past at the Farm, Van Helsing goes the stripped down route once again. This Van Helsing review contains spoilers.
