The Split Review

Forgive me for any errors above. Got busy and had to rush this recap. Anyway, the episode was very good. We reached our climax with Nina spilling the beans on everyone. Now, the wedding is in jeopardy. Plus, Hannah and Nathan’s relationship could be in trouble. We only have two episodes left. I can’t wait to see how things play out in the end. The episode scores an 8 out of 10. Catch up with previous recaps of The Split right now!
