| Question - how was prairie able to carve the symbols into her back? |

Yeah, that made no sense. It would have made more sense if they carved the symbols on their legs. |

I wondered this. Maybe its a question we'll see answered in season 2? But I think its also one of those shows, like LOST was, where questions arise early on which intrigue audiences, but the producers really have zero intention of giving the answers - they just want to raise further questions in order to pique interest. |

| Okay... I loved it but totally didn't get it. Why did they do the movements when the shooter was there? I thought they thought OA made it all up... Lost me. Please, anyone, explain |

| My question too! Although I liked the final scene it didn't seem well thought out. Do the movements make them angels? |

The way inread this, and i could be way off- was that the movements combine their will power. They did the movements to stop a mass shooting, to protect everyone, and by distracting the shooter and giving the kitchen guy a a chance to tackle him, they achieved that. And maybe they also sent OA off where she wanted to go (am less certain of this aspect) |

Why wouldn't the movements, including the fifth movement, have either protected OA or sent her to the other dimension? |

I discovered the show a few days ago, and since I'm on vacation stayed up until 4am watching it. Of course, I made the mistake of not starting until 10pm! Loved it. Also really liked the series Chewing Gum. |

| I loved this series so much! The ending was reminiscent of one of my fave books: "A Prayer for Owen Meany" |

| To me it reminds me of twin peaks. Entertaining but so much doesn't make sense. |
