TV Review: NAUTILUS Episode 3, ‘What Lies Beneath'
When last we left Nautilus , the submarine's crew was hiding from the East India Mercantile Company … at the bottom of the ocean. But something else had taken notice of them, and it didn't sound friendly. Get ready for some old-fashioned gimmicks, adventures, and twists in the third outing of Nautilus . Nautilus, Episode 3, 'What Lies Beneath' The Nautilus is in dire straits in the third episode. They're fast running out of rations and have to surface. And they do, into the welcoming arms of Rajah (Richard E. Grant). Rajah runs a tight ship on his palatial grounds, surrounded by a litany of servants and armed guards, almost all of whom are made up of local residents. What could possibly go wrong? RELATED: TV Review: Nautilus Premiere The title of the episode, 'What Lies Beneath,' has a few meanings here. We find the Nautilus literally uncovering something new at the bottom of the ocean. But we also peel back the layers of Nemo's (Shazad Latif) backstory and meet the newest character, Richard E. Grant's Rajah. Raja means king in Hindi. I'm intrigued by the spelling choice — I haven't seen 'Rajah' used in a long time. But then again, there are a few spelling choices that confuse me. Nemo was locked up in Kalpani, but I'm pretty sure the name of the place is supposed to be Kalapani. I'm hardly an expert in history or geography, so I'm going to let these anachronisms go. For now. Rajah Richard E. Grant is, once again, a delight. I don't know how he does it. Every time I scoff at his inclusion — not because I dislike him, but because the entertainment industry can be so insular and keep casting the same people over and over — he steals the show. RELATED: Read our Interview with the Vampire recaps Grant has a particular way of delivering his dialogue, and it never gets old. He's easily beguiling, like an elderly uncle with one's best interests at heart. But you just know there's something else up this guy's sleeve. Rajah knows a lot about a lot, but the layers don't unfurl till later. Grant keeps the audience on their toes. Despite my initial skepticism, he's a great choice for the role of the Rajah. I am looking forward to seeing more of him on the show. RELATED: Movie Review: Sinners Also, stellar pronunciation of 'Bundelkhand.' Kudos for not butchering that, Mr. Grant. Nemo's Backstory We'd seen flashes of Nemo's backstory in the two-episode premiere of Nautilus . Not enough to tell us much, but enough for us to gauge that he'd faced some tragedies. We learn more about Nemo's history in 'What Lies Beneath.' RELATED: Yellowjackets Lets Women Be Angry Readers of the Jules Verne books, especially The Mysterious Island , will be especially delighted by this episode, which leans heavily into the source material. But there are more revelations still, some of which are truly shocking to the viewer and Nemo. Can we believe this news, though? Nemo and Humility Lucas (Georgia Flood) also continue to spar with each other. I've already warmed to these two and their banter. I can guess where their relationship is headed, but I'm going to wait and see what the show does. So Old-Fashioned, Yet So Fun I can't believe how much I'm enjoying Nautilus . I tend to go into everything with a heap of trepidation, and I wasn't expecting much out of a show that landed in my inbox with nary any fanfare. But Nautilus is so fun while being devastatingly dark as well. RELATED: AMC's Anne Rice's Immortal Universe Talamasca Series Casts Its Lead The show is like one of those old-timey swashbucklers — with guns instead of swords. Good guys versus obvious bads; the underdog versus the big corporation. The fun adventures are balanced with a reality check. This episode was particularly humorous, which buoys the viewer during some of the tragic revelations. Resident Nautilus funny man, Jagadish (Chum Ehelepola), gets the spotlight here and commands it. RELATED: 6 Book Recommendations if You Love Our Flag Means Death And the cliffhangers. This show really knows how to leave you desperate for more. I can't wait for the next episode.
