Under the Dome Season 1 episode 2: The Fire

When Barbie woke up he realizes that his dog tag has gone missing. He set out to retrieve it at the Cabin where he killed Peter Shumway. Junior Rennie has followed him believing that he and Angie has a sexual affair. Out of Jealousy Junior confronts Barbie and a fight broke out. 

The radio station DJ Phil and radio engineer Dodee has pick up a transmission between the Military groups stationed outside the dome. Julia heard about it and shared the information to townsfolk using the radio. After Duke Perkins’ death, Big Jim and Reverend Coggins plans to destroy the evidence regarding the propane Shipment. Coggins set Duke’s house on fire but miscalculated and got himself trapped inside. The town has cooperated to pass on the buckets of water to stop the fire from spreading further. Jim Rennie runs of unexpectedly but came back with a tractor to bring down the foundation of the house.




One of the town’s deputies, Paul, has gone hysterically and shot a bullet at the dome. Unfortunately the bullet ricocheted and hit another deputy, Freddy killing him instantly. Paul was subdued by Barbie and was arrested soon after.


We learn more about the secrets of the People of Chester’s Mill are keeping and the lengths that they are willing to do to keep it secret. People are starting to become desperate and people are panicking. I expect that more of this panic will manifest in the future episode.  There more questions still yet left unanswered. Hope next episode we will get more answers.

Under The dome Character: Sheriff Howard "Duke" Perkins



Howard Perkins is the Chief of Chester's Mill Police department. More known to others as Duke. He is part of drug  syndicate in Chester's Mill that involves Councilman James Rennie and Rev. Lester Coggins. He died when his pace maker blew up when he got to close to the dome. He also died before telling his Deputy Linda Esquivel about the secrets of Chester's Mill.

Duke Perkins is played by Jeff Fahey. He has been cast in several Movies and TV series. He had TV guesting with Hawaii-Five O, Revolution, CSI and Lost

Under the Dome Pilot Episode review

In The woods in Chester’s Mill, Army Veteran Dale “Barbie” Barbara buries an unidentified man. On his way out of Chester’s Mill, a mysterious barrier appears out of nowhere blocking his escape. Shortly after he saves a boy named Joe McAllister from the falling debris of Plane that Crash into the invisible Barrier.  Later Barbie met the town’s reporter Julia Shumway.

When the Dome appeared, all modes of communications became useless except for radios which are still working inside the dome. At the local radio station, DJ Phil and the radio engineer Dodee discovered a radio frequency from outside the dome. However they are still unable to send messages outside but they could only listen in to the conversations.



Joe McAllister’s sister, Angie just ended her fling with the town’s councilman’s son Junior Rennie. He didn’t take it well and imprisons Angie in the family’s underground Shelter. Junior also saw Angie talking to Barbie. Junior confronts Barbie and they got into a fight. 




On a different part of town, Caroline and Alice and their daughter Norrie were about to leave Chester’s Mill when they saw a truck crash into the invisible barrier. Soon after their daughter Norrie experienced an epileptic episode. Joe McAllister also experienced the same epileptic episode similar to what Norrie had.

The Town Sheriff Duke Perkins was about to tell his deputy Linda about excess supply of propane when his pacemaker burst killing him without telling Linda anything.



Julia invited Barbie to stay with her since he saved Joe Mcallister’s life. Barbie recognized the picture in the house. The person that he buried was Julia’s Husband Peter Shumway.

Under the dome is something different. Since Stephen King himself is part of the TV series, it would be interesting how he would interpret his novel to TV screens. There are still a lot of questions left unanswered. Definitely this is a show to watch. What are your thoughts?

New TV series review: Under the Dome


A mysterious dome appears out of nowhere trapping residents of Chester's Mill  inside. The dome has disrupted Mobile phones and the Internet leaving those trapped unable to contact the outside world. Radio communication is the only means for people in Chester's Mill to communicate inside the dome. 

People outside the dome has failed to break through the invisible barrier. As the days passes by people grows more desperate, water and food becomes more scarce and people either try to hold on to or seize the power to lead Chester's Mill. The dome has affected several individuals causing them to have seizures and reciting the lines "Pink stars are falling". We have to watched the show to see how the story unfolds. Having read several books written by Stephen King, I bet the master story will have a lot of twist and surprise before we truly learn the secrets of the dome.
