This weeks episode of  "The Following" picks up just where the last epsiode left off. With the mask man later found out to be Ryan burning one of the critics of Carroll's book.

Not to get to too much into plot detail however we learn more and more about the followers in Carroll's cult. What makes them strong, weaker and of course why they're all together.

 One of the follower's tells the FBI that they "Divide secrets so no one knows everything." However the episode seems to show the grow getting weaker without Carroll's direct influence.

We also learn the brainwash idea of the members is taught through Carroll's lessons, a sort of "do it yourself" motto told through Edgar Allan Poe. Which is why Ryan chooses fire, he favors it over knives not like everyone else. You truly can't trust anyone in this show a seemingly victim was all apart of a elaborate scene to get Ryan more and more involved in this story. Ryan also proves that he has manipulating skills as well and able to get into the mind and crack the followers.

The group of followers may be falling apart but the individual members all want to impress Carroll with the paths of "revenge" that they choose. Ryan's reason for killing is revenge for anyone harsh on Carroll's book. The gay couple and girl seem to be deteriorating even quicker possibly due to the triangle relationship.

This episode also gave rise character relationships. We see Ryan and Agent Weston begin a quasi relationship. While we learn a possible reason for Carroll kidnapping his son, which is to join the group. Which the episode ends with Joey saying his to Ryan on camera.

Greatest review's gives "The Following" (The Poet's Fire S1/Ep3 2013) 5 stars out of 5. This is a turkey in bowling or in the case of this show for another awesome episode. With one leading into another what will next week's episode truly bring? What is Carroll hiding? This show leaves viewers always asking questions but thankful answers them for fantastic answers and more questions.
