Happenstance (2020) Episode 6: Onsra

Wade finally told Jose Manuel that Luis is dead. And Juan Manuel's father, Fabian, somehow, had something to do with it! Jose Manuel's mad at Wade (and later on, at Alice) for not telling him the truth. Episode 6: Onsra was another strong episode. I especially liked the memory sequence with Jose Manuel and Luis sharing sweet moments together and the imagination sequence with Jose Manuel and Wade slow dancing. These scenes were both heartwarming and sad. Screenplay had grounded and relevant historical, political, and social commentaries on Martial Law, media network shutdown, joblessness during the COVID-19 pandemic, and government incompetence. Avoiding preachiness, these commentaries were seamlessly incorporated in the overall narrative. Acting was quite good. Jovani and Stephanie were on point during their dramatic scene. Production value was consistently high. All in all, I was really satisfied with this episode.
