'The Woman in the Wall's Third Episode Brings Colman "Knock Knock"-ing on Lorna's Door

Before we get into this week's The Woman in the Wall, let's talk about the elephant in the room, especially in light of the opening flashback where Lorna remembers telling Clemence she wished for a boy and Colman's dream sequence where Father Percy is the monster. Between last week's reveal that Colman was the son of a Magdelene Laundry captive and Lorna being presented with babies to choose from that included a light-skinned Black boy, it's evident the show is pointing us in the direction of her lost child being the detective on her tail.

Colman: This is a waste of time, consulting with psychics and horse assaulters...

The detective who would be on her tail, anyway, if Massey would get out of the way. However, Massey's not about to let Lorna get questioned, not on the day of Clemence's funeral, especially with David openly blaming her. Perhaps if Lorna stayed at the funeral, she'd have been safe, but she doesn't. Instead, the Missing Persons photos of Aoife sends her to drinking and a line of cocaine, causing the woman's face to haunt her everywhere. Colman catches her as she's high as a kite, and tries to make an appointment with Lorna for the next day, only to have Michael and then Massey get between them.
