The topsoil of 10,000 farms decides to ruin everybody's day. Pretty rude.

This opening shot is gorgeous! Everything is brown, but they’re situated near mountains. Mountains we will never see again.
We zoom in and see Ben working on a car. Probably stealing carburetors before it was cool. The conjoined twins are in the background doing their morning stretches. Ben sees them and is fascinated.
Lodz is being fancy in his trailer with his absinthe, performing his own rendition of Jurassic Park. He seems thrilled about it.
Sofie and her mother argue in their trailer about Sofie’s habit of going to town to have a little fun. She says she never lets it go too far and she’s not lying. Apollonia doesn’t want her to go and slams the door to prevent her, or at least make her point even more apparent. We get a premonition that something is to come. Before Sofie forces the door open she says “what are you talking about? It’s a beautiful day.” FORESHADOW.
Samson is getting all dolled up in the management trailer. As he leaves we see through the curtain where management was, and it’s yanked closed.
Ben is getting food from the hottest server at the circus. He sits with someone I’ve never noticed before, who pointedly gets up and sits at another table. Why? Weren’t we all thrilled about Ben last episode? Is it because that woman died in Tipton?
At a nearby table, all of our remaining characters are seated. Gecko complains about the heat and the shade while sitting in the shade. Lila riles everyone up by saying a nearby road leads to Babylon. Libby says she heard 3 rousties were strung up there in ‘32. Dora Mea says it wasn’t rousties it was freaks - two pinheads and an albino. Apparently, Gecko is albino-phobic.
Next, we see Jonesy following Samson through the carnival grounds. He’s worried that his men are going to bolt, everyone’s been jumpy since they went off course.
Samson says it’s not his call, it’s management. Jonesy says maybe he could talk to management. His men stand behind him, encouraging him. This is what we call foreshadowing.
Samson shuts it down and walks away. Jonesy follows him to the car. He tells Jonesy he expects everything to be set up by the time he returns. Jonesy shouts to his men to get back to work. No one’s thrilled.
