He had a lot of trouble following the story, and needed to make a lot of assumptions just to keep up. Our friend who hadn't seen it kept making comments like "I didn't understand _ until an offhand comment later on".

The original 8 episodes don't have an hour worth of fluff to cut, so a ton of minor scenes that gave important background end up getting cut.
