It was great until this episode. This episode was stupid. There were over 500 fingers on the train that could push a button and he chooses the person who got shot. I'm surprised he didn't pick the dead woman. Train stops for several minutes where everyone could have gotten off and walked away but he continues to keep everyone in danger, why!?
I'm done. Stupidly is to much to continue watching.
