'Smoke' Episode 4 'Strawberry' PLUS: 'Superman' Review

Needs Some Introduction - Pluribus / Welcome to Derry

In this episode of 'Need Some Introduction,' host Victor, along with co-host Darren, delve into episode 4, titled 'Strawberry,' of the Apple TV series 'Smoke.' They analyze the episode's complex narrative, exploring the blurred lines between reality and fiction. Victor emphasizes his theory that much of what we see may be fabricated from the protagonist Dave's book. Key moments discussed include Dave's inappropriate behavior during a lecture, Calderon's ongoing investigation, and the absurd and surreal final scenes, which suggest a fantasy element. The episode also covers how audiences might react to these developments, the upcoming introduction of John Leguizamo's character, and ends with a brief detour into the new season of 'Dexter Resurrection' and anticipation for upcoming films such as Ari Aster's 'Edington' and David Cronenberg's 'The Shrouds.'
