I agree with some of your points; I think when they likely bring Irene back later she might have changed a bit, become more refined in her plotting and mustache-twirling. But I also think this Irene has some social dysfunctions which put her in line with Sherlock and Moriarty, so it'll be interesting to (hopefully) see where Moff goes with that.
Overall I think this episode suffered from too much to say in 90 minutes. Clearly the writers were as desperate as we were. I expect less hot mess plotting next week. And hopefully less lampshade-hanging, but I already bitched about that on tumblr so I'm over the venting. I want to watch this episode one more time before drawing strong conclusions; I was a bit blindsided by fervour.
