Seems like there were a few parts that didn't go anywhere. Like the time they were in Mecca and the pilice came and then nothing happened and they were back in the country. Or when they went wolf hunting and he almost shot a wolf but then didn't and they went home.
shareThose parts seemed quite lifelike to me. There's quite a lot of tension when you're in a very strange environment, out of your depths, but often nothing too bad happens.
shareThe Mecca scene was my favorite.
It was a very original suspense sequence.
But too short! And it had no real consequences.
Just an episode. That's not what you call good dramatic writing...
But the scene itself is very nice.
