The only reason I'm not giving this a 5 star is because I really wish we could've held onto the identity mystery a little bit longer.

I feel like she just found out that the Faceless Man was Josh way too fast. Especially with the whole texting his cell phone thing I was hoping she didn't figure it out that quick. Also if his own ROOMMATE didn't know it was him by the tattoos in the screenshot... unless he did know and just didn't want to make it awkward and was being like "dude she's so into you" kinda vibe. Still TBD on Tyler, I guess.
