One Of Us Review

The second episode of One of Us was a little slow, but very enthralling. The series is beginning to take on a life of its own and it would seem everyone has some deep dark secret to hide. Jamie is ultimately a creeper. Claire was lucky she made it out alive, during their night time rendezvous. And how about Rob?

Is he Lee’s true killer? At times, Claire seems a little too innocent and could end up being the real culprit. Nonetheless, the episode was great. An 8 out of 10. Catch up with previous recaps of One of Us right now!
