(May Contain Spoliers)
After episode 3 picked up where the previous episode left off. Did Carol Baskin murder her missing husband? Don Lewis has been missing for 22 years and there has been no conclusion to his disappearance, although there are many contributors in this episode who suggest it was Carol who killed him, and Joe Exotic who goes that bit further to suggest Carol fed Don to the lions! This episode is particularly interesting because it side-tracks to Carol’s story, but also invites new contributors including Don’s ex-wife and kids, Don’s attorney and his business partner. It is very clear that there is a lot of conspiracy in this episode from Don saying ‘If I pull this off’ – what off, going missing? Carol, on the other hand, is collecting Don’s will and rewriting it so that in the case of his disappearance she owns all the land, which seems highly suspicious.
Regardless if this episode digresses from the main story, I think it is a nice refreshing break that builds up the audiences understanding of Carol’s history and her character. I think the documentary does well to ask as many people there opinions as possible, so that it is not just Joe and Carol’s bias hatred towards one another. It is only episode 3 and I am hooked!
