Pure Genius Season 1 Episode 10 "Hero Worship" Review


When a woman arrives at Bunker Hill with a mysterious lung ailment, James is conflicted after he connects other respiratory cases in her area to possible contamination from a microchip factory owned by his hero, tech guru Douglas Prescott. Also, Walter and Taliakha work to find why a young man can't walk despite his legs being in good condition, and Zoe becomes jealous of James's connection to Nina.

This was a really interesting episode that focused more on one patient and her problems and everything around that problem. Like the main focus was the women with dying lungs and they actually brought up and worked on the cause of her problems and not just trying to fix her. It was very interesting to see James outside of the hospital and doing a bit of work on his own. The actual creation of the lung to help save this woman's life was really cool with the concept that the lung had no engine it was just powered by the women's own heart. The fact the Prescott was not willing to take the blame for all the lung problems going on in that one area was not all that surprising to me. And the ending of this episode I really liked how James got back at him without necessarily telling the public the full truth. The boy who couldn't walk was a really interesting story that took a really kind of cool take on why this kid was struggling to walk. And just overall this was a really interesting and kind of unique episode.
