His Dark Materials Returns, as Consistently Inconsistent as Ever
To be fair, the premiere does dole this information out, just languidly. In fact, everything is languid; even if all the events that happened in two episodes were condensed into one, there’s still not a ton to tell. But let’s try, shall we?Asriel takes a small craft through a portal to a world where a man is imprisoned. His name is Ogunwe , and Asriel frees him in hopes that he’ll command the anti-Authority forces, as well as bring along his army.
Back in the Magisterium, the increasingly squirrelly Father-President MacPhail sends the fervent Father Gomez to track down Lyra, which he does through the use of one of those tracker beetles seen back in season one. Mrs. Coulter has hidden Lyra in a small house just off the German Ocean, and has enlisted the help of a young, mute girl named Ama for help, although Ama gets increasingly suspicious about the sleeping girl kept inside.
Baruch heads back to Asriel, while Balthamos leads Will to Coulter’s house, where they randomly find and recruit Iorek Byrnison,Unfortunately, when Baruch arrives at Asriel’s army, he’s attacked and killed by one of the Authority’s angels. He has just enough time to tell Asriel the Subtle Knife can be used to kill the Authority and its bearer won’t join the cause until he finds Lyra.
So everyone converges on the house—Will and Iorek, Gomez and his Magisterium soldiers, Asriel—but Will gets there first, leading to what is indisputably the best scene in the premiere: Coulter speaking with absolute honesty to Will about why she’s drugging Lyra. It’s to keep her safe, of course, but Coulter knows that Lyra would never consciously stay with her. Will knows it’s true, and Wilson allows Coulter’s heartbreak at the truth to become barely visible behind her glacial exterior.
