Castle Rockis, as many have noted, a very slow burn of a show. It lobs mysteries wholesale at the audiences and jealousy hoards their answers, doling out only the smallest, barely noticeable clues as the episodes unfold.
When Castle Rockdoes have big reveals, they usually create as much confusion as they clear up, and Episode 6 of the series pretty much nails that approach with...whatever the hell happened to Henry in the woods.
SEE ALSO: On 'Castle Rock,' The Kid is not all rightTo recap, Henry Deaver went to the forest around Castle Rock after finding old tapes of him and his father hanging out there. While exploring he stumbles upon Odin (played by C.J. Jones) and Willie (played by Kieran Culkin), a deaf acoustics expert and his interpreter/student, respectively.
Odin tells Henry that he and Willie are in the woods for the same reason Henry’s father would take his young son out to the woods all those years ago — to listen to the “schisma,” a cosmic noise that Reverend Deaver interpreted as the voice of God. Odin’s explanation of the schisma’s origin and purpose is where it gets weird.
“Best I can tell, schisma is actually nanoscale turbulences caused by cochlear quantum totalities abrading in parallel — other heres, other nows. All possible pasts, all possible presents. Schisma is the sound of the universe trying to reconcile them.”
Yeah, what?
While Castle Rockhas placed some emphasis on the idea of time sticking, freezing, or moving strangely — there is, after all, an immortal Skarsgård in a box — the idea that the crux of the show is a singing universe grinding out countless alternate realities is not at all where things seemed to be heading.
The ringing in Henry’s ears seems connected to the schisma in that he may be particularly attuned to it, and its prominence in the woods of Castle Rock means it almost certainly has something to do with what happened to Henry and his father when he was 11. It also likely plays into Ruth’s condition, which is starting to look less like dementia and more like she is sliding around in her timeline and possibly visiting alternate realities in her fugues.
Right now it’s hard to see how the schisma can affect anything else in the show, unless the current iteration of events in Castle Rock happens to be in the universe where all of the bad things that could happen in the town do happen, where the Kid functions like a bag of cosmic charcoal soaking up the malcontent that might exist in other realities… but that’s... that’s crazy, right?
Hey, it’s Castle Rock. If it sounds crazy, it just might be the only sane thing that happens.
