Dune: Prophecy - Episode 3

Sisterhood Above All

Written by Monica Owusu-Breen and Jordan Goldberg
Directed by Richard J. Lewis

Some time before Raquella's death and Valya murdering Dorotea in Episode 1, we hook up with a young Valya and her family on Lankiveil, Homeworld of House Harkonnen.

Valya's brother Griffin plans to confront Vorian Atreides for slandering their family name, but target murders him.

Swearing revenge, Valya joins the Sisterhood and survives the Agony ritual.

Tula's boyfriend Orry Atreides awakes to find his family dead, with Tula murdering him shortly after.

In the present day, Tula apparently euthanizes Lila, but secretly places her on a life-support machine.

Truth is a tool

We've reached the halfway point and my patience is wearing thin.

Another snooze-fest goes virtually nowhere and while franchise was never about action - series could certainly do with some.

So apart from a lot of idle chit chat, does anything interesting happen?

Err, Orry's horse dies and a Salusan bull appears for 30 seconds or less.

Riveting stuff.
