The characters, murders, secrets, and lies make the storyline, but it is Evelyn Bay that holds it all together. The town is so deeply rooted in every character that one terrible storm over a decade ago changed the destiny of everyone living in it.

Murderbot Season 1 Episode 5, “Rogue War Infinite Tracker,” brings a DeltFall survivor into the fold as our core crew unravels. It also boasts a strong comedic performance from guest star Anna Konkle, whose Leebeebee subverts the usual dynamic and injects new life into the proceedings. The NewbieKonkle’s character is reminiscent of her Pen15 character, but as an adult. The monologue where Leebeebee goes on a tangent about our titular bot’s potential genitalia is absolutely golden.
