The Institute season 1 episode 3 preview: The escape plan

After the two-part premiere this weekend on MGM+, do you want to know more regarding The Institute season 1 episode 3? It goes without saying, but we are more than happy to help!

First and foremost, though, we do need to begin here by noting that moving forward, the plan is for the Stephen King adaptation to have more of a weekly rollout. The two-episode block here was designed solely to get people on board and moving forward, things are very much going to change.

If you watched the first two episodes already, then you know how complicated this place is. Luke is one of the kids stuck within its walls, where he knows that there are many mysteries and bad things may await him. Unfortunately, trying to find a way to get out could prove rather tough. Below, you can check out the full The Institute season 1 episode 3 synopsis with some more insight on what lies ahead:

Luke begins to plan his escape while Sigsby is distracted trying to expose Stackhouse’s disloyalty; Tim loses a friend.

The Tim storyline, at least for us, is the part of this that feels like it has the most slow-burn potential. This is a character who is still trying to get his bearings within the community and at this point, it is abundantly clear that he has no real sense as to what is going on. You have to hope that this is going to change in due time, but whether or not it will is, of course, a totally different story. We just hope that the rest of the series is able to live up to what we saw in the premiere. There were a few scary moments for sure, but beyond that, we have an innovative, atmospheric, and very dark work we are thrilled to see develop increasingly over time.
