Flashbacks in this episode delve into Blum's disturbing childhood at the funeral home. Critics note these scenes are vital for understanding her "neutral" emotional state and her comfort with the macabre—traits that allow her to transition into a ruthless vigilante.

Critics from Rotten Tomatoes and Ready Steady Cut generally agree that by Episode 3, the show finds its "fresh and original" voice. While some find the "masked men" trope a bit cliché, the spectacular Austrian backdrop and Blum’s "offbeat" personality make it a standout in the international thriller genre.
