Unfortunately for everyone involved, the contraption nearly catches on fire. So, the single woman takes the girls to a strip mall tech store, hoping her flirty tech associate can fix the broken tool. As the older woman with debilitating mental issues documents her surroundings with her iPhone, Tiffany, the only person with common sense, notices that her device looks like the elder’s smartphone. When they head into the woods, they discover that the Old-Timers buried all evidence of the violent scuffle, including the field hockey stick KJ used to kill an armed soldier. The next day, the paralegal turned unexpected caretaker helps the girls find their way back home. It will be interesting to see how the future versions of Mac, KJ, and Tiffany will turn out in the later episodes based on the comics, it doesn’t bode well for them. Sometimes, little ones grow up to become the worst versions of themselves. As distressing as Erin’s future seems, this gut punch of a reveal is intriguing as it shows that not every childhood dream comes true. For the child, meeting the adult version of herself is a massive disappointment since she aspires to become a United States senator with four kids, not a depressed middle-aged lady who takes Xanax to survive the grind. It is safe to say that Erin’s future is not going according to plan. The only things the woman can call her own are her house, a dumb little car, and a dead-end job as a paralegal. Annoyed at her younger self, Adult Erin bitterly tells the girl that she is hopelessly single, still lives in Stony Stream, has an estranged relationship with her sister Missy, and, most notably, her mother is dead. With more questions than answers, Young Erin barges into her counterpart’s bedroom and asks her what will happen to her in the future. Whereas Tiffany (Camryn Jones), whose more level-headed than the others, just wants to know the origins of a mysterious device a teenager gave her during the confounding gunfight in Episode 1.

Young Erin (Riley Lai Nelet) paces back and forth, KJ (Fina Strazza) is in shock because she has blood on her hands-more on that later-and Mac (Sofia Rosinsky) thinks everyone is dead. Even though the older woman is experiencing a mini panic attack, the paper girls in her kitchen are not doing well either. Named after Tiffany’s dead pet hamster Weird Al, Episode 2 opens with Adult Erin (a surprisingly subdued Ali Wong) trying but failing to calm herself down after witnessing the twelve-year-old version of herself breaking into her home with her punk friends.

Though the character growth and steady pacing make “Weird Al is Dead” an entertaining watch, the young adult series still struggles with seamlessly incorporating its sci-fi elements. That said, Paper Girls is still mediocre and nowhere near as good as other supernatural female-centric fares like the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Instead of focusing on shock value and unearned twists, the two scribes zero in on the fragile relationship between the four leads.
Rogers’s well-grounded script, the science fiction drama vastly improves in Episode 2.
