It's hard to describe the mental stuff that we all might go through. I completely relate to this look right now. All the weight that he's had to bear, all the things he's gone through, and everything that's tearing through in his mind at this moment. And he's "pretty good."
Agathe is calm, composed and focused throughout. But in (S1E9,~19:21) she fails to close her door. Conrad captivates with her body art, which we strive, fruitlessly, to read, in this deftly-handled scene. Saw this post a couple of years ago and wonder what McMillan friends think about it:

That whole scene asks so many questions about Agathe’s potential back story. The tat’s, of course. She clearly left the door unlocked enticing Alice to come in, after she vibed with her on plane/drive**.** Single mom, her all-femme detective group.
Debated on posting this here, but Patriot is talked about so I figured that made it relevant enough.
I'll add, I did get my partner to watch Patriot with me after he enjoyed DTF St. Louis, he kind of enjoyed it in some regards....but he hates John... He doesn't sympathise with him at all and wanted him to drown in the end. 🤷♂️
Steven is touring soon as his solo acoustic act Hoist the King and has an audible original coming out some time later this year.
Another great frame from S2 E7. Throughout the show it seems that Tom belabors John’s taste for baking just a liiittle too much, even if it is in an old-timey Bridgerose Texas kinda way. But that night on the quay Bernice informs that “he’s high as S!” It seems from Tom’s reaction at the end of the conversation (~17:00) and in the very next frame in which he appears, sitting on the steps of a French building, (~25:27) that this factors into task cancellation. Bernice.
A model train expo is coming to a town nearby.
Gregory would go. He’d also punch anyone who thinks model train kits suck, if drunk of course.
"You went to the hospital last time!"
Reasons it removed my faith in humanity - it was cancelled.
Reasons it restored my faith in humanity:
"It gives a name to pleasurable midday wetness..."
"There's probably cool wine bars and sh*t..."
Most things Cool Rick does and says (Era Authentic Beastie Boy sweats, when he plays Root Down, when he tells Alice he's a Tavner and he won't talk about what John does)
When John asks the HR guy in Paris what's important to him in his life...replica model trains and landscapes..."those guys said that was f*cked up...."
The Swiss watch maker approach to the geometry and logistics of many scenes. When John is in the pipe and many people come to him demanding things, we see Dennis way off in the background walking towards John. It must be 60 seconds or more until he reaches John but we see him the entire time. Amazing and precise and courageous!
Too many other scenes and lines to list.
Any for all mankind watchers (b4 patriot) I was like WAIT I know u haha
I was roving in Ireland and found this store. Now I need to find the “cool guy or douche” store for Alice. Thanks to those who corrected the last post !
Finally got around to watching this. So good on so many levels. Conrad rocks. Recommend to all Patriot fans.
Leslie would approve of the breakfast component categorization, maybe. Elmo’s Diner in Durham, NC.

Mine is that in s3 we find out John's performance at the edm festival was a hit that went viral on the internet and became so famous Leslie got to see how John really feels about him 🥹
Just finished Patriot a few weeks ago and ofcourse I was enthralled by the scene when John is sitting in the pipe and courts/attends everyones demand one by one and you can see Dennis coming far off from the distance and he just keeps coming and coming and coming giving just a prolonged comedic slow release.
When I was watching it, I immediately realized .. hey.. this feels familiar .. and then after a while I realized where is Conrad drawing from ... the great Swedish film maker Roy Andersson.
So for those of you who loved Patriot, I would encourage you to check out Andersson's films.. I have a feeling you are going to love them too:
