Whether its Hitchcock Presents, Twilight Zone or Black Mirror i dont think a twist is inherently needed. Theyre welcome for sure but you dont HAVE to have one. Sometimes its about the journey. Beyond the Sea is a great journey.
Well acted is an understatement obviously but the story beats arent exactly obvious either. For instance before the manson family shows up that development wasnt obviously going to happen and as the story unravels it couldve went 3 or 4 ways. That said even if you pegged every beat from start to finish its still a compelling hour+ of tv.
Totally fair to say the season sucked but saying that ep is as bad as the rest of it...i dunno. Bridge too far for me.
