The Flash SN2 EP15 – ‘ King Shark ‘

So it’s time once again for my review of The Flash and in this weeks episode we see Barry struggle with what happened on Earth-2, the return of King Shark, guest appearances from Diggle and Lyla and we the identity of Zoom is finally revealed.

---

So after Jay Garrick was killed at the end of the last episode we see the team looking visibly shaken by what was just at the beginning of the episode, Barry decides to concentrate on running around the city looking for other meta human threats while Caitlin struggles to come to terms with losing yet another love interest. Barry wants to go back to Earth-2 as he feels that he has left the whole planet at the mercy of Zoom now they have  closed all the portals. Dr Wells explains to Barry that it is impossible to go back as all the portals have now been closed and there is no way of reopening them.

We then go off to a secret Argus facility where is appears they have been holding King Shark prisoner in a large tank with a laser grid over the top of to stop him from escaping. He appears to have gone belly up so the guards decide to shut down the laser grid, cue the scene cutting to Lyla and Diggle arriving at the facility and we find out that Lyla has been promoted to the new head of Argus and has been tasked with cleaning up Wallers mess. The alarm sounds and the pair arrive to see all the guards dead and King Shark having a snack on them as he sees the Lyla and Diggle appear he makes a break for it and escapes.

Diggle and Lyla pay Barry and team a visit to advise them that King Shark has escaped from the Argus facility as it appears that Amanda Waller had captured him and were experimenting on him to see if they could use his genetic make up to make weapons. Barry is frustrated by this and is not going to wait around for King Shark to find him and that he is going to take the fight to him instead. Barry, Diggle, Lyla and the Argus team take off to track him down by searching the nearest bodies of water next to Central City. The group eventually find him but are unable to capture him and he makes a meal out of another two Argus agents.

During the episode we see Dr Wells warn Barry and Cisco that they must not tell the others about there Earth-2 counter parts, the pair agree to not tell them anything but we see Caitlin’s attitude change towards people. Cisco begins to worry that she is becoming exactly like Killer Frost after she the pair pay King Sharks Earth-1 wife and Caitlin becomes inpatient after they ask for a look at her research. She also snaps at Cisco later on for trying to help her go through the research and find a way to track King Sharks movements.

We also see some issues arise between Barry and Wally during a family game night at the West household, Wally beats Barry’s cup stacking record and makes the claim that no-one is faster than him. Barry is offered the chance to regain his title but he doesn’t seem interesting in having fun with the rest of the West family, Wally seems to be a bit put out by this and decides to head off as he has plans. Joe and Iris pick up on something not being right but there unable to get it out of Barry at this point in time. Joe later arranges for Barry and Wally to meet up at the house to help Wally with his project to get into a engineering college programme, Barry reluctantly agrees to come along and help him out as he knows he needs to take his mind off King Shark.

The pair meet up and at first it takes them sometime to warm up to each other as Barry goes straight into nerd mode and starts telling Wally where he needs to improve his engine designs and Wally states that he asked for his help and not for him to do the work for him. The pair then get down to work and seem to be working well together until Barry gets ahead of his self again and states to Wally that he is trying to help and doesn’t want the college to have a reason to say no to him. Wally takes offence to this and goes to storm out Barry goes after him to ask what his problem is only for Wally to tell him that he has had enough of hearing how amazing and perfect Barry is from Joe and Iris. Just as the pair are arguing King Shark arrives by tearing the roof of the house looking for The Flash as he can smell that he is there. Barry makes sure that Wally is not looking and rushes outside to confront Killer Shark, the fight is short lived with Barry being thrown against a car but before King Shark can finish the job Argus arrive on the scene and scare him off.

Barry arrives back in the house as the West’s are tidying up the mess and Wally turns to Barry and asks if he has been hiding under his bed he had heard he was meant to be this amazing person and he didn’t take him for a coward this causes Joe to snap at Wally before he leaves the house looking annoyed that his father has taken Barry’s side. Barry tries to defend Wally but Iris and Joe know there is something else wrong with him, Barry comes clean and tells him all about there Earth-2 counter parts and what happened to Joe and that even though it was not his Joe that died it was still just as painful. Barry also admits that he feels like it is his fault that Jay was killed due to him being the one who opened the breaches, Joe and Iris advise him that it is not his fault and that he needs to move past this if he is ever going to be happy.

We go back to Star labs and Cisco confronts Caitlin about her behaviour and accidentally lets slip that she is acting like she was over there. Caitlin manages to get out of Cisco about meeting her Earth-2 counter park and what she was like and is a little shocked to think Cisco would think she could turn into that sort of person and that she just needs time to get over losing Jay. Eventually Caitlin manages to find out that King Shark uses Barry’s electric charge in order to track him giving the group the idea to reverse this process to track him instead. Barry, Caitlin, Diggle, Lyla and the Argus team head off to the river to try and lure King Shark out with a decoy of Barry giving out an electric pulse.

King Shark takes the bait but the tranquillisers that Cisco has planted in the decoy have had not effect and he ends up on land and it appears that bullets don’t do any good against him so Barry takes off over the water and King Shark gives chase. Barry uses his electric charge to send shocks through the water harming King Shark before sprinting around in a whirlwind and eventually hitting him with his now trademark lightening bolt rendering him unconscious. Argus reel him in and place in him an impenetrable holding cell so that he can be transferred back to the facility, Lyla promises Barry that they won’t be experimenting on him like Waller was. We also see Diggle give Barry some advice as he has noticed that Barry has been struggling and it’s around how to losing people that are close to you and using his experience of when he was in Afghanistan and lost his friends.

We see Caitlin catch Cisco out by touching her with her cold hands and when he calls he Caitlin she asks why she is calling her that and she hates that name before laughing at him, Cisco obviously doesn’t find it very funny but is glad to see her a bit happier.

At the end of the episode we see Barry call everyone together and advise them that he is not ready to give up on Jay and that they will find a way to get back to Earth-2 and also that he plans on stopping Zoom once and for all when he gets there revealing Jay’s helmet in a case to honour his memory. We see a cut scene to Earth-2 and Zoom holding the body of Jay he drops him on the floor and the prisoner with the metal mask looks distraught, we then finally see Zoom remove his mask only to reveal the face of Jay Garrick and says “Well this is a complication”.

What’s our resident vlogger Aly up to in the latest video? Find out below!

DC’s Legends of Tomorrow SN1 EP9 – ‘ Left Behind ‘

Welcome back!  Today I am reviewing Legends of Tomorrow SN1 EP9 – ‘Left Behind’.  In this episode, there is a surprise return of a cast member, and an appearance by  Ra’s al Ghul, reprised by Matt Nable.

It is the year 1958, and Sara, Ray and Kendra have been left standing in a field outside of Harmony, Oregon, unaware that Chronos has broken into the Waverider.  They are not sure of what to do. Ray’s Eagle Scout training dictates that they should stay put, but Sara’s League training says they need to keep moving.  Time passes.  Sara wins, because they don’t know where Vandal Savage currently is. They don’t know why the Waverider left, but can only assume that something bad has happened.

They appropriate a car (ah, the joys of a misspent youth, Sara) and go to Hub City where they rent an apartment.  So what do you do when you are stranded in 1958?  Linear time dictates that you move forward, of course.  Ray busies himself building a time beacon, and becomes a college physics professor, Kendra becomes a librarian,  because there really isn’t much in the way of employment opportunites for women in the late 50’s and angst ridden Sara leaves to find someplace where she can belong.

Plus there is the whole awkward third wheel dynamic going on, since Ray and Kendra are developing their relationship.  And time passes.  It is now the year 1960, and Ray is teaching Bill Gates’ father, who sees the potential for miniaturization in Ray’s theories.  After class, Ray and Kendra are picnicking in the park.  It is the anniversary of the Waverider’s disappearance.  Ray has finally given up on ever being rescued, and is about to ask Kendra to marry him with a terrific proposal speech, when the time beacon activates, and the Waverider appears.

Rip opens the door and says sorry they are late.  Understatement of the year!  Kendra gets on the ship, seemingly without a regret or a care for life over the past two years.  Ray is bewildered and hurt, sensitive guy that he is.  Oh, that adorable whipped puppy face!  I would just love to SQUEEZE it!

So where and when was the Waverider? And what exactly were Rip, Leonard, Martin and Jax doing?  For them time has not passed, since they have been outside of time struggling to wrest control of the Waverider from Chronos.  Chronos has fought them off the bridge.  Rip sends Martin and Jax to the jumpship, while he and Len go back to the bridge to stop Chronos.  Martin and Jax hear the resulting carnage, and so Martin decides that danger to the Waverider be damned, they have to merge to save their friends.

Firestorm burns through the bridge door to find Rip lying on the floor unconscious.  There is no sign of Chronos or Len.  Gideon informs them that Chronos has taken both Len and the jumpship.   Excuse me?  And here we thought Rip was the intended target.  Rip realizes that Gideon can’t get control of the Waverider, and must be rebooted.  Rough ride!  Gideon is then able to lock onto Ray’s time beacon signal and voila!  Ray and Kendra are recovered.  Ray has to go back to the apartment to pick up the Atom suit, and is devastated when Kendra tells him that she doesn’t want any of their ‘old junk’ from the apartment where they lived just that morning.

Now to recover Sara.  During a conversation between Ray and Kendra, where Ray persistently misunderstands Kendra’s feelings, Kendra realizes that Sara has probably gone to the one place she always felt she belonged, Nanda Parbat.  It turns out very conveniently that Rip’s graduate thesis for the Academy was on the League, which gives him a fairly in depth knowledge.

Gideon pulls up the Shadow Log, and they discover that Sara has joined (rejoined??) the League in 1958.  The team travels to Nanda Parbat, 1960.  Leaving the rest of the team to guard the entrance, Rip enters Nanda Parbat to find Sara.  She raises the alarm, which results in all of them being captured and imprisoned, to await execution for trespassing.  And of course, Sara has relieved Ray of his suit, and has instructed the guards to keep Martin and Jax separated.  Rip thinks that Sara is suffering from time drift, which essentially means that she has spent so much time in this alien time line that she has lost touch with her former life.

Kendra realizes that this is probably why her powers have gone dormant.  Ray wonders why she hadn’t told him that.  Rip demands an audience with Ra’s al Ghul, intending to avoid execution by demanding trial by combat.  Ra’s chooses Sara to be his champion, since she is important to Rip and the team.  Ray volunteers, but Rip chooses Kendra, over Ray’s objections. Kendra knows why, and tells Ray she’s got this.  Sara and Kendra battle with swords,  Kendra recovers her wings and reaches Sara by reminding her that she is White Canary.  Chronos blasts his way into Nanda Parbat.

So why did Chronos take Len instead of Rip?  On the jumpship, a handcuffed-to-the-railing Len wants the answer to that very question.  Chronos tells him that he should have figured it out already, since Chronos is supposed to be the dumb one.  He takes his helmet off to reveal Mick Rory.

Mick tells him he should have killed him.  Len says that he was always coming back for him.  Mick notes that he took too long.  When the Time Masters found him, he was nearly out of his mind and becoming more animalistic, surviving by eating rats.  YUCKKK!!  The Time Masters had taken him to the Vanishing Point, restored him to mental and physical health, trained him and given him the chance to become Chronos, which he had jumped at.    Len wonders why he hasn’t killed him yet, so Mick tells him vengeance is a much better fit for him than arson.

He plans to get his vengeance by going back in time to kill Len’s sister Lisa in front of Len , over and over again.  Thankfully the jumpship interrupts, telling Mick that Waverider has landed at Nanda Parbat in 1960, which puts him back on task as Chronos.   Once Chronos has left the jumpship, Len manages to free himself in a particularly gruesome method.  He works his way to his cold gun, freezes his hand and smashes it on the floor (OWWW), thereby getting out of the handcuffs.

Inside Nanda Parbat, Chronos is wreaking  havoc on the Assassins.  Rip, with Sara’s help, convinces Ra’s that the only way to defeat Chronos is to release them. A firefight ensues.  Firestorm and Atom are instrumental in taking Chronos down.  Atom is about to end Chronos when Snart staggers in and stops him.  The team are understandably shocked to learn that Chronos is Mick.

They put him in the Waverider’s brig for safe keeping.  Ra’s now understands why Sara had done so well in her training over the past two years.  He tells Sara that there is no place within the league for someone who is conflicted between her ability to kill and her desire to show compassion, and releases her to reclaim her past life and name.  Sara asks him to make certain to send his daughter to the coast of the island of Lian Yu in October of 2008. He is curious as to why he would send Talia, so Sara tells him that it will be his as yet unborn daughter, whom she is pretty sure he will name Nyssa.  

The team demands an explanation from Leonard. Len points out that he never actually said that he had killed Mick, but that he didn’t have to try too hard to let them think he had.  Rip sees this as a unique opportunity to reform Rory.  Kendra objects because he killed her son.  Martin points out that Chronos killed her son, but Rory was fighting on their side that day.

Sara points out that she knows about being trained by an organization to kill, and that she needs to know for her own sake that Rory can be reached.  Martin says that the Time Masters took one of their own and turned him against them.  He wants to undo their handiwork.  Ray remembers that Mick saved his life in the gulag, and feels that he is more than a criminal and arsonist.  Jax agrees that Mick is a member of the team, but Len thinks he is a lost cause. Rip says that miracles abound on the timeship.

In the medlab, we see one of these miracles occur. Rip has Gideon regenerate Len’s hand using genetic samples that he took from each team member at the beginning of the journey for exactly this purpose.  Meanwhile, in Ray’s quarters, he is looking at the ring he bought for Kendra, which he then hides as Kendra enters.  Ray is still misunderstanding Kendra’s point of view, but she finally clears up his confusion by telling him that it was just being stuck in the 1950’s that she wasn’t happy with.  For the first time in centuries, she is able to choose who she is with, and she chooses him.

Rip tells the team that they now need to go to 2147, mere decades before Savage conquers the world.  The team is confused, because they were told that Savage had disappeared from history.  Rip says that he has always known that Savage could be found in 2147. They have not gone there yet because that time is fraught with more peril than he was willing to risk, but now they have no choice.  They must stop Savage in 2147 or die trying.

My Favorite Moments:

Call me sentimental, but I just KNEW that Len could not possibly have killed his long time partner, protector and friend, Mick.

Ray is just so darn cute with that disappointed, bewildered look on his face.  For a smart man though, he really isn’t very bright when it comes to figuring out women, lol.

Jax’s unexpected but totally cool KO of the sentry at Nanda Parbat.

Ra’s has a heart!  Who knew?

 

 

 

DC’s Legends of Tomorrow SN1 EP8 – ‘ Night Of The Hawk ‘

In Episode 8 – Night of the Hawk – we are back to hunting Vandal Savage who is trying to build an army of Hawk-like creatures, and we experience the small mindedness and prejudices of the 1950’s.

The Waverider lands in Harmony Falls, Oregon in 1958, where a hot rod race is taking place on a deserted road.  One of the rods blows a tire and crashes, leaving the driver’s girlfriend semi conscious.  The driver of the crashed rod and the pair from the other car see a mysteriously glowing rock a few yards a way from the crash and examine it, wondering if it is some kind of comet.   Vandal Savage appears from the undergrowth, and tells them it is actually a meteorite that he too was drawn to.  He says that he was not expecting to find them, but that he considers finding them to be destiny.

On the Waverider, everyone is shaking off the effects of time travel, which apparently increase with the length of each jaunt.  Gideon produces the information that Harmony Falls has been the scene of some grisly murders while other people have gone missing.

They quickly set plans to find Savage.  Kendra and Ray are to pose as married, Martin will be a Doctor filling a vacancy at the Asylum created by the untimely death of Dr. Miller, Sara will be a nurse and assistant to Martin.  Leonard and Rip will be federal agents, and Jax will be the new kid in town.

Problem is Kendra and Ray are an interracial couple,  Jax is black, and Sara is gay, none of which, is ideal for Small Town, let alone anywhere in the 1950’s. This becomes apparent when Kendra and Ray are talking to the real estate agent about a house, and she offers to find them a place in a more forward thinking town.  While Martin and Sara are being welcomed to their new positions, the Head of the Asylum, Dr. Hannah (Ben Wilkinson) leers at Sara.  Snart and Rip  introduce themselves to Sheriff Ellison ( Darryl Shuttleworth) to examine police files relating to the case.  Sheriff Ellison insists that there is no serial killer, just some unexplained accidents. Snart tough talks him into giving them the files.

Sara, Martin and Jax meet at the local soda shop where Martin waxes nostalgic about the idyllic scene they find themselves in.  Jax points out that it is only idyllic if you are white, and Sara adds “and straight, and a man”.  Martin gets the point.  They notice that the girl from the crash, Betty Seaver (Melissa Roxborough), is sitting by herself in a melancholy state at the counter.  Jax introduces himself, causing shock from other girls sitting at the counter.  Betty apologizes for them, saying that they had never seen…., and Jax interrupts with “a guy dipping his french fries in his milkshake?”.  Betty laughs and they chat until some jocks try to intimidate Jax by telling Betty that she doesn’t hang around with losers.  Jax offers to fight, and they back down, telling Jax that it isn’t over as the soda shop owner shakes his head at them.  Betty invites Jax to hang out.

Back at the Asylum, while Sara is tracking down files of violent patients for Martin, she sees Dr Hannah sexually harassing Nurse Carlisle (Ali Liebert).  She bumps into him causing his coffee to spill on him.  Sara asks Nurse Carlisle for a tour, during which Sara sees a wing that Nurse Carlisle is not taking her to and asks about it.  This mysterious wing is Hall H, and is where Dr. Knox works with the most violent of the inmates.

At Kendra and Ray’s house, a neighbor has come by with a tuna casserole and an invite to their house party.  The neighbour introduces herself as Mrs. Knox, and her husband as Dr. Knox.  As Dr. Knox comes into view, Kendra is shocked to see that he is Vandal Savage, but manages to cover up.  Ray comes to the door to see who Kendra is talking to, and is also shocked, but covers up in a stumbling tongue-tied way.  They accept the invite.

The team meets at the Waverider to analyze the police files.  Snart observes that Savage is very good at making people disappear.  Jax snarks “something you have in common”.  Jax is forced to admit his concern that if Leonard had no problem making his best friend disappear what would he do to the rest of them?  They decide that since Savage will be busy with the party, it will be a good opportunity for Sara to search his office.  Kendra and Ray are tasked with finding out whatever they can at the house party.

Nurse Carlisle catches Sara searching Knox’s office, and wrongly assumes that she is looking for booze.  They go to the cafeteria together, where Sara lets her know that she is gay too.  Alarm bells start going off in the Asylum in Hall H.

Kendra and Ray enter the house party, where Kendra is mistaken for a waitress by one of the guests.  Ray and Kendra split up, with Kendra keeping Savage busy, while Ray checks the rest of the house.  He finds a locked room.  Savage puts moves on Kendra until he is called back to the Asylum, but promises her that they will talk more.

It seems that Tommy Fuller (Levi Meaden) has been a very bad transformed monster.  He has killed an orderly.  Savage is not pleased.

The next day, Carlisle works up the nerve to kiss Sara, but Sara pulls away and rushes out.  She later confesses to Martin that it terrified her, because it opened up previously dead feelings.

Kendra stands guard while Ray breaks into Savage’s locked room.  The search produces Kendra’s dagger.

Jax and Betty hang out on Lover’s Lane, in her Dad’s car.  Jax wants to talk about the disappearances and what happened to Tommy the night of the crash, but Betty wants to make out with him. The jocks from the soda shop show up, wanting to fight. Suddenly Tommy appears and knocks the stuffing out of the jocks, destroys the roof of the car and slashes Betty’s neck with a talon.

Jax jumps back into the drivers seat and tries to get Betty to medical attention at the ship, leaving the wounded jocks behind.   He is pulled over by Sheriff Ellison for speeding, who pays no attention to the wounded Betty, or to Jax’s story about the attack and other victims needing help, focusing instead on Jax being on Lovers Lane with a white girl.  He knocks Jax out and drags him to the cruiser, leaving Betty to bleed out in the car.  Luckily, Snart and Rip have been tracking Jax through his bio signature and find Betty in time get her to the medical bay on the ship.

Betty tells them what happened the night of the crash. Gideon finds silicate materials in her bloodstream which brings them to the conclusion that the meteorite Savage found is the same type of meteorite that transformed Kendra and Carter, and that Savage is trying to create an army of mutated versions of Hawkgirl.  Gideon and Martin build a serum that will hopefully cure anyone transformed by this particular meteorite.

Kendra meets with Savage at the asylum, in hope of getting close enough to him to use the dagger.  However, Savage turns the tables on her, and reclaims the dagger.  Savage doesn’t buy that she is there alone, and pushes a button to release his army. Kendra and Savage battle for the dagger. Meanwhile, the rest of the team have infiltrated the Asylum.  Rip and Ray are caught snooping by Sheriff Ellison who works with Savage, and Martin and Snart are checking out Hall H when the test subjects are released.

Sara has been making amends to Carlisle when they are interrupted by one of the nasties.  Sara gets medieval on its ass, Ray and Rip get away from the Sheriff, and Ray rescues Kendra from Savage, who disappears.  A transformed Jax appears in Hall H, where Snart is busily stopping the other nasties with his cold gun.  He fires at an overhanging pipe to disorient Jax, and Sara arrives in time to knock Jax out.

Back at the ship, the serum is administered to Jax, curing him. The team returns the others to normal. Sara goes back to the Asylum to say goodbye to Carlisle, Jax gives Betty  a new car, and Kendra and Ray pack up the house. Back at the Waverider Jax apologizes to Leonard.   Chronos attacks and gains entry to the Waverider, and episode ends as the ship pulls away, leaving Sara, Kendra and Ray standing in the field.

My Favorite Moments:

Martin’s realization that back in the day really wasn’t the ideal that he remembered

Sara spilling coffee on Dr. Hannah, stopping the harassment of Nurse Carlisle

Jax dunking his french fries as a way out of a potentially awkward line of conversation

Jax’s apology to Leonard, and his acceptance of Leonard as a team member

Martin praising Leonard for his restraint and quick thinking

 

DC’s Legends of Tomorrow SN1 EP7 – ‘ Marooned ‘

In Episode 7 – Marooned – Dr Stein fulfills his childhood dream of being an heroic space ranger, and we meet another Time-Master.

Gideon needs an upgrade, because his database is out of date.  He has run out of clues as to where Savage might be found next.  In the normal course of events, this upgrade would happen automatically whenever the Waverider returned to home base.  Gideon receives a distress call from another Time-Ship in the vicinity, the Acheron.  The team points out to Rip that it is too coincidental to be anything other than a trap, but our fearless leader insists that this is the only way that Gideon can get his upgrade, and so they rush to the rescue.

Upon boarding the Acheron, Rip, Jax and Mick are captured by ‘Captain’ Valor (Callum Keith Rennie) and his crew, who Rip realizes are space pirates.  Acheron’s time drive has been destroyed per Time-Master protocol, and Valor wants the Waverider.  Rip tries to defuse the situation, claiming they are all on the same side for once because of the danger posed by Savage.

Valor doesn’t give two rips for the danger, and sends a message to Ray at the Waverider’s helm demanding that he allow the pirates to board and take the Waverider over.  Rip slips a codeword in which executes one of Gideon’s emergency protocols, causing the Waverider to fire a shot and take evasive action.  Valor orders pursuit and fires a shot in return, blowing a hole in the Waverider’s hull. Valor then warns Ray that he has 10 seconds to comply or he starts shooting prisoners.

Rip manages to slip another codeword in to deactivate the holographic Waverider that Acheron has been chasing, but now Valor catches on and throws the three into the brig.  Sara and Len try to fix the breach,  but Captain Cold’s gun runs out of steam before it can be completely sealed, causing the bulkhead doors to close which traps them inside the engine room.

Atom dons his suit and goes outside to finish sealing the breach.  While Sara and Len are slowly freezing to death in the engine room, Sara tells Len that there is no way that Rory will ever return from the dark, but Len reminisces about meeting Rory in juvie, where Rory first saved him and says that Rory has had his back ever since.

Len gets existential and wants Sara to tell him from her unique perspective what it is like to die. Meanwhile, Professor Stein has realized that something is up and leaves the jumpship to find and disarm the Acheron’s targeting system and weapons array . Sneaking through the Acheron, and managing to avoid all but one of the pirates,  he does just that, and then goes on to release Rip, Jax and the oh so judgmental Time-Master Captain Eve Baxter (Stephanie Cleough) .

Rory has already been released from the brig because he wants to make a deal with the pirates.  Rip has told him that he was never part of the plan, and that he was only along because he and Snart were a package deal.  Awwww, Rip hurt his widdle feewings. Rory’s deal with the pirates includes being taken back to the moment of meeting Rip, so that he can tell him to shove the mission, thereby getting his partner Leonard back.

Rory and some of the pirates take the jumpship back to the Waverider, where Atom has succeeded in sealing the breach, nearly killing himself in the process, but releasing Snart and Sara from the engine room.  As the pirates follow Rory onto the Waverider, Snart realizes that it is time to choose a side, and fires at Rory, while Atom, Sara and Kendra take on the rest of the pirates.

Back on the Acheron, Rip has come up with a plan to rid themselves of Valor and the remaining pirates.  His plan is based on his memory of a training simulation where his illicit girlfriend uses explosive decompression to great effect.  After a rip-snorting fight with Valor and just in the nick of time, Rip shoots Valor and opens the hull doors, sucking the remaining pirates out into space.  Captain Baxter is grateful, (and now considerably less judgmental) and gives Rip the update that Gideon needs before returning to the Vanishing Point.

Back on the Waverider, the team has a discussion about Rory’s fate.  His betrayal was not part of any larger plan, which means they are not able to trust him again.  The brig is not built for long term incarceration. They can’t release him in 2016 because the team has too much family there, so what to do?  Leonard makes the clearly difficult decision that he needs to take care of it.

The Waverider lands somewhere, somewhen; Leonard takes Mick outside.  Mick realizes that this is the end for their partnership, and quite probably for him.  He wants to know what happened to Snart, the punk kid he saved in Juvie, and the partner he has had since.  He says that only one of them can leave this spot alive.  Leonard agrees and shoots him with the cold gun.

My Favorite Moments:

Rip’s facility to baffle ’em with BS. “You don’t know my crew, iron-willed and battle-hardened.  The most formidable warriors to navigate time and space.”

How Rip’s girlfriend became his wife, when the Time-Masters expressly forbid relationships.

Rip telling Captain Baxter that he doesn’t regret betraying his oath to the Time Council, because he is following a higher calling.

Stein on being a space ranger:  “I’ll teach you to mess with a nuclear physicist”

The kiss – Kendra and Ray FINALLY !

The entire conversation between Sara and Len while they are trapped in the engine room, where Sara admits that at least if they die they won’t die alone, followed by Len knocking Mick out to save Sara, all of which points towards the potential for a romantic relationship between the two.

Stay tuned for my reviews of Episode 8 & 9, and remember to follow skatronixxx.com!

The Story So Far:

In the first episode, we meet Rip Hunter, Time-Master and Captain of the timeship Waverider, in the year 2166.  The world has been basically laid waste to by the immortal baddie, Vandal Savage.  Rip,  a flawed Time-Master, wants to go back in time to stop Savage before he gets started: in effect to re-write the future.

Having had a personal run-in with Savage, he knows that he can’t go it alone.  He presents his plan to the Time-Council, and it goes pretty much as expected, a big fat NO. He and Gideon get the hay out of Dodge and go back in time anyway to collect a team to help him.

The Waverider lands in Star City, in the Arrowverse, where all of his potential crew are currently in the middle of their own battles.  Now Rip doesn’t much believe in explaining himself more than once, so he collects each member by zapping them with his space ray gun just as each of them triumph in their missions.

When they wake up he tells them who he is,  what his mission is, and indulges in some ego stroking to get them to agree to join him.  Some of the members don’t want to go, notably Rory, Jax and HawkGirl.  Professor Stein hijacks Jax by means of drugging and kidnapping, because after all, heroes – nay, Legends – are required and Stein alone cannot be a hero, Snart convinces Rory by pointing out that they can steal the most valuable treasures in history, and Hawkman and Hawkgirl settle it like warriors.

The team assembles, and leaves 2016 to track down their first lead, Professor Boardman in 1975.  Meanwhile, the bounty hunter Chronos arrives in Star City and informs his employers that he is closing in on Rip.  Professor Boardman turns out to be not only an expert on Vandal Savage, but is also Kendra and Carter’s son from their just previous lives.  Although he dies because of a stray bullet in a firefight between our heroes and Chronos, he provides them with their next clue contained within his journal.  And now the truth begins to emerge.

Rip tells them that he has quit the Time-Masters because they did nothing about Savage killing his wife and child, but that he has not lied about the rest of it.  He has allowed them to think that they are heroes in their futures, but that he took them because they are actually insignificant to the time-line.

They want to make their own fates, so they all agree to continue with the mission.  In succeeding episodes, they romp through the time-line in hot pursuit of Vandal Savage, while being chased themselves by Chronos.  Along the way, they lose and recover a piece of the Atom’s suit, stop Savage from selling a nuke – cameo by Damien Darhk (Neil McDonogh), discover the one weapon that can end Savage forever, get Hawkman killed, nearly lose Kendra and are captured by the Russians who are trying to build their own Firestorm.

And we get a little of Snart’s history, when he tries to change his father’s fate.  In  episode 6 they travel to a ravaged Star City in 2046 where they talk Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) out of retirement to join Diggle’s son Connor Hawke (Joseph David-Jones) who has taken up the Green Arrow mantle.  DeathStroke (Jamie Andrew Cutler) makes a cameo appearance.  Captain Cold and Heatwave have a “difference of opinion” when Heatwave realizes that he is losing Captain Cold to the team and wants to stay in 2046.

My Favorite Moments:

Pretty much anytime Snart opens his mouth.  What comes out is always humorously dry, witty and sarcastic, and I am really enjoying this character’s development.

Jax tells Professor Stein that he thinks Stein still has plenty of adventure left in him, and that he wants to be part of the team because in his high school football days, when he felt safest was when his teammates were looking out for him.

Rip’s memories.  They make him who he is – a “flawed” but very human time master- and are the driving force behind his self imposed mission to end Savage.

My reviews of Episodes 7, 8 and 9 will be coming at you in the next couple of days.  Stay tuned and don’t forget to follow skatronixxx.com!

 

 

 

 

 

Arrow SN4 EP14 – ‘Code Of Silence’

So it’s time for this weeks review of Arrow and this weeks episode centers around the team trying to locate Damien Darhk and team uncover a sinister hive plot in the process.

---

 

We start the episode in a theater with Oliver and the team preparing for a live debate session with Darhk’s wife Ruvé Adams the team are discussing if they have uncovered anything on Ruvé that will help them win the race for mayor of Star city just as she arrives. The pair exchange a few words and Oliver manages to drop some nice Darhk references into the conversation before she makes her excuses and leaves, the team spring into action and suit up to follow her and see if she leads them to Darhk’s location.

She ends up leading the arrow to a remote location under a bridge to appear and advise him that he had a meeting with her husband last week and he hates to be stood up. She then follows this up with but I’m sure he would hate you following his wife even more and he has a surprise for you and with that a group of hive soldiers come from behind her and open fire. Speedy and Spartan arrive to lend a helping hand but amidst the fight Ruvé manages to slip away.

Oliver and Thea are seen back at the campaign HQ and it appears that Thea has been tasked with looking into the Queen family history to make sure there are not more secrets that Ruvé can use against Oliver in the debate. This of course means Thea comes across a check written by there mum for 1 million dollars payable to a Samantha Clayton as she questions Oliver about this he just claims she was someone he went to college with and does not know why there mum had written her a check.

We then see a meeting between Darhk and other leaders of Hive where they are discussing phase 5 of there plan for Star city, one of the leaders advises that Darhk’s failure to take care of Oliver Queen has caused them to doubt it he can carry out the plan. Darhk does not take kindly to this and asks the man how his office is and he feels like he is there and the next thing we hear is a snapping sound so it appears that he has used his dark powers to kill this leader. We also see Malcolm Merlyn sat at the table in this meeting and he advises Darhk not to under estimate Oliver, it also appears that the fate of phase 5 now rests with Ruvé winning the race for mayor.

The team are discussing how they can track down Darhk and Laurel heads off to speak to father to check up on him as the team are worried that Darhk may try and take out Captain Lance due to him telling the team the location of his hideout. Just as the pair are discussing the issue Captain Lance receives a call from dispatch that back up if needed at an abandoned warehouse he heads off to help and Laurel decides to tag along to keep an eye on him. The pair arrive at the building and Captain Lance advises Laurel to stay in the car while he goes in to check it out.

Captain Lance enters the building and it appears to be empty with no sign of any officers in trouble as he is looking around an explosion happens knocking him of the platform and onto the floor. Laurel appears to try and rescue her father but then more explosions start to go off bringing the building down around them, the pair manage to escape just in time just as the building collapses in on itself the pair head back to arrow HQ and Diggle helps patch up Captain Lance.

Oliver advises Captain Lance that he needs to lay low for a while as this wont be the last time he might attempt to take his life.While this conversation has been going on Felicity has started work on tracking where the call to Captain Lance came from. Captain Lance calls Debbie to the campaign HQ and says that they need to put some distance between each other for a few weeks and uses the excuse that he has got in to deep with a gambling debt. Debbie does not by this for a second and ends the relationship if he cannot be honest with her.

We later see the Felicity and the team back at Arrow HQ and Felicity has managed to track the source of the call to a warehouse and the team head off to investigate. The team arrive to find three hive mercenaries setting up some bombs in order to erase any trace that they have been there, Diggle gets into a fight with the mercenary who is on patrol while the other three are held back by fire from a nail gun from one of the mercenaries as they plan there escape she fires four nails into the lap top and the trio flea but not before setting off the bombs. Oliver and Laurel go to find Diggle and Thea stays behind to grab the damaged laptop stating she will meet them outside, Thea manages to make it out of the building by jumping through a window moments before the building implodes.

Felicity is unable to gain access to the damaged laptop of she does not have enough power at arrow HQ so decides to visit Palmer tech to enlist the help of Curtis. We see him working on something just as Felicity comes in with the laptop he quickly shuts the screen down when pressed about what he is working on he states that he is working on an engagement for her. Felicity gives the damaged laptop to Curtis and asks if he can pull everything he can off the laptop and send it to her once he has completed the task.

We see Oliver and Thea back at the campaign office and Thea asks Oliver why he lied to her about how he knew Samantha Clayton? Oliver comes clean and tells Thea that she was a girl he was involved with at the same time as he was dating Laurel. Thea then advises her brother that she has looked Samantha up and has seen that she has a son called William, Oliver has no choice but to come completely clean with Thea and advise her that William is his son but he cannot tell anyone as this is the only way he is allowed contact. Oliver is surprised when Thea agrees that this need to be kept from everyone to stop William becoming a target.

Oliver then receives a call from Diggle to advise him that Andy has been digging around the dark web and found the warehouse where hive have been making there explosives and he will meet him there. They both arrive but they are to late and hive have cleaned out all the explosives from the warehouse and whatever they are planning to blow up if must be big.

 

We arrive back at the theater for the night of the debate and Felicity receives a call from Curtis to inform her that he has managed to gain access to the laptop and he is sending over the only piece of intel that was on the laptop. Felicity’s face looks panicked when she see’s that it is plans for the theater and advises Oliver that they need to evacuate the building and Thea decides it’s quicker to pull the fire alarm than wait for Felicity to hack the system.

As all the people leave we see Ruvé call the mercenaries from earlier as they are planting the bombs around the building advising them that there has been a change of plans and that Oliver must not leave the building alive. Team arrow suit up and start there search of the building as Captain Lance arrives on the scene to lend a hand and advising Debbie to stay outside as she was about to go back in and look for Oliver. We see Diggle come face to face with the same guy and sledge hammer he thought earlier in the episode only this time Diggle has some form of gadget to help him reflect the metal from the sledge hammer. Thea and Laurel attempt to take on the woman with the nail gun and Oliver is left to fight the remaining guy.

Luckily Diggle manages to take out his hive mercenary and diffuse his bomb and shortly after this is followed by Thea and Laurel defeating there mercenary and diffusing there bomb. Oliver seems to be having the tougher fight but just in time Captain Lance comes in and shoots the remaining mercenary and Oliver manages to diffuse the three remaining bombs. The debate then takes place and we see from a news report that early indications show that Oliver had won the debate as was favorite to become the next mayor.

We are then taken to Oliver and Felicity’s engagement party we see Captain Lance come clean with Debbie about what was really wrong and that he used to work for hive as Darhk had threatened to hurt Laurel and all is forgiven and the pair rekindle their relationship. Curtis arrives at the party to give Felicity and Oliver his engagement present, Felicity opens the box and is presented with a tiny microchip she thanks Curtis but is not sure what this chip does. Curtis advises her that it is not a chip but in fact an implant that will help her walk again once it has been surgically attached to her spine and that he just needed more power and achieved this by using the new power cell invented at Palmer tech.

The episode comes to an end at the home of Damien Darhk and we see him talk to his daughter announcing they have a new house guest and it’s none other than William. Darhk states that his mum has asked them to look after William for a while begging the question has he killed Samantha? What are his plans for William? and How will Oliver take the news?

We also see the flash backs to Oliver’s time on Lian Yu but as these are now becoming a bit tedious all I will say is Oliver finally gets to kill Conklin.

The Flash SN2 EP14 ‘Escape from Earth-2’

So it’s time for this weeks review of the flash and we find are selves back on Earth 2 to find out if Cisco and Dr Wells can save Barry and also if Jays condition can be helped by Caitlin.

---

At the beginning of the episode we see Zoom going around the city in search of Dr Wells by handing out pictures with the words bring me Wells on them. We then see Dr Wells watching the news and a clip of a building with the words bring me Wells in flames on the side of it.

Cisco arrives to back at Star labs to fill Dr Wells in on the sequence of events and that Barry has been taken prisoner by Zoom. We see Earth 2 Barry has woken up from being knocked out at the beginning of the last episode. Just as Dr Wells and Cisco are about to explain what has been going on Zoom arrives and the trio head for Dr Wells hidden time room, Zoom manages to figure out where the hidden room is and enters but the three of them are nowhere to be seen it turns out Dr Wells has some sort of visual gun that projects a fake wall to hide behind.

The three of them leave Star labs and head to the police HQ where they fill Earth 2 Iris in on what has been happening. Earth 2 Barry has an alga rhythm to triangulate a point where a meta human may be hiding and uses it to track down Killer Frost in order to gain her help in finding Barry.

The the four of them head off to the woods on the edge of the city to track her down. At the beginning she does not seem to be interested in helping them and attacks them all instead and eventually they manage to surround her before she can hurt Iris. After Cisco manages to talk some sense into her by stating that Zoom killed the man she loves and she agrees to show them where his hideout is located.

We see Barry and Jessie trying to figure out what the other prisoner is tapping on the glass of there cell. They eventually figure out that he is using a form of alphabet that POW prisoners used to communicate. They get as far as Jay and Barry asks if the person means Jay Garrick and they start nodding but then seems upset when Barry states that he didn’t come with them.

Just as they are about to try and get some more information out of there cell mate Zoom turns up and advises the prisoner not to talk to them again. Barry advises Zoom that he will find a way out of his cell and destroy Zoom, just as he finishes his threat Zoom phases through the cell wall and advises Barry he only needs him barely alive to steal his speed force and proceeds to give Barry a beating. He then rushes off in search if Dr Wells and Barry seems to think he has shown him how to escape although Barry tries many times to try and phase through the wall but cannot seem to replicate the effect and it appears this is down to a frequency issue much like in the last episode with Ciscos powers.

Dr Wells, Cisco, Iris, Barry and Killer frost arrive at Zooms lair and it appears to be a huge cavern dug into a cliff side that only a speedster would be able to reach well apart from Killer frost who creates a giant frost column for them to climb up. The team finally reach Barry and they manage to free Jessier but Barry is still unable to phase through the cell wall and advises the team to leave him behind. Earth 2 Barry is not having any of it and advises him that he can do anything he puts his mind to he just has to believe he can do it as Barry concentrates on what he wants he manages to phase through the wall. Barry does not want to leave the other prisoner behind but before he can figure out a way of setting them free Zoom arrives and thanks killer frost for bringing them all to him. He then pushes Dr Wells and the others out of the way and grabs Jessie by the throat and says “I told you I would kill you in front of your father” but before he can kill her Killer frost hits him with a freeze blast.

Cisco thanks her for her help before she advises him that he should get out of there while he can as she is not sure how long she can hold Zoom. Barry promises the other prisoner that he will be back for them. The team arrive back at star labs and Dr Wells advises Iris and Earth 2 Barry that they need to leave Central city to avoid Zoom coming back for them, Dr Wells also tells Jessie that they also need to leave as they won’t be safe on Earth 2 and they plan to go back with Barry and Cisco just as the alarm is sounded it appears Zoom has managed to escape from Killer Frost’s ice blast.

Back on Earth 1 we have seen the return of the meta human Geomancer who has still been causing issues there and has been destroying buildings in order to try and bring out the flash. We see Caitlin has been working on a better version of Velocity 8 after she discovered the last time they used the formula is caused more harm to Jay’s cells she eventually creates Velocity 9 and gives this to Jay when Geomancer collapses a hospital and Jay manages to save everyone involved.

Geomancer eventually tracks Jay down too Star labs but as he is not around he settles for trying to hurt Caitlin and Iris he knocks Caitlin unconscious and then turns his sites to Iris, just as he is about to causes another tremor he is whacked with a shock collar it appears she wasn’t as badly hurt as we thought and Joe arrives to take Geomancer to jail but in causing all the tremors he has caused the last breach to become unstable. Jay says that the only way he they can fix the breach is for Jay to causes a vortex around the breach while Joe resets the containment walls and this is successful just in time for the Velocity 9 to wear off.

Cisco and Jessie are the first two through the portal but it appears Barry and Dr Wells are taking longer than they should be and we go back to Earth 2 to see Zoom holding Dr Wells by the throat. Dr Wells reaches in his pocket and grabs a syringe before plunging it into Zooms chest just as Barry manages to grab Dr Wells and head into the portal and make it back to home. Jay is waiting on the other side the the implosion device to close the breach as he chucks this into the breach the whole team are celebrating but as Jay has his back to the breach Zoom thrusts his hand through Jays chest and drags him back to Earth 2 much to the horror of the group and the episode comes to an end.

Arrow SN4 EP13 – ‘The Sins Of The Father’

So it’s time for my review on the Arrow and this week the story revolves around Oliver’s mission to save Thea’s life and the feud between Malcolm and Nyssa for control of the league of shadows. Also in the episode we have more flash backs of Olive’s time on Lian Yu and we also get to learn more about Felicity’s dad aka The Calculator.

---

So at the end of episode 12 we saw Nyssa approach Oliver advising him she has a cure that will save Thea in the form of an elixir called the lotus but in order for her to give it to Oliver he would have to kill Malcolm Merlyn. Now Nyssa’s request is brought from selfish need as the only reason she wants Malcolm dead is so that she can gain control of the league of shadows. Oliver pleads with her to give him the cure to save Thea he even brings up the fact that they are husband and wife and that Thea is also her family.

Oliver arranges a meeting with Malcolm to try and talk him into giving up his leadership of the league in order to save Thea’s life. Malcolm is not very interested in giving up his leadership as he does not believe that Nyssa has the lotus elixir and tells Oliver that he may be very handsome but he’s not very smart. Oliver sends Laurel to try and reason with Nyssa in order to try and gain the lotus or at least some form of proof that she actually has the elixir. Laurel tries to appeal to Nyssa sense of family values by trying to bring Sara into the conversation as well as tells her that everything that has happened has been because of her Father. Nyssa gives Laurel a sample of the lotus which she takes back as proof and in wasting no time Oliver gives itto Thea in front of Malcolm and we see her chest wound heal.

Malcolm agrees to meet with Nyssa to hand over the ring giving her leadership of the league but in true Malcolm style this is all a ploy and we see a group of assassins come from behind him and a fight ensues between both sides. Nyssa flees with her group of assassins and Malcolm and his team give chase only for there path to be blocked by Oliver and Diggle telling Malcolm that if he wants Nyssa he will need to go through him. Back at Arrow HQ we see a very angry Oliver trying to figure out why Malcolm has done this and the team are unable to locate him or his assassins until Felicity advises there has been breach and someone is with Thea, Oliver rushes down to her aid only to find Malcolm checking up on her.

Oliver asks Malcolm if being Ra’s al Ghul is more important to him than the life of his own daughter, Malcolm replies that the reason he is reluctant to give up his position is that he knows what the league is capable of in the hands of the wrong people. He then says to Oliver ‘What would you do if Damian Dahrk told you to hang up the hood and let him complete his plan for Star city in order to save his son William?’ Oliver has a shocked look on his face which Malcolm notices and says ‘I’m Ra’s al Ghul I know everything there is to know about you’

Oliver sends Laurel out again to try and locate Nyssa and bring her to Arrow HQ in order to try and find another way to make her part with the lotus. Laurel eventually tracks her down and refuses to let her pass unless she can see reason this is short lived as some of Malcolm’s assassins show up to try and take out Nyssa and her men a fight ensues in the street and there are casualties on both sides and even some of the public are hit with arrows.Oliver and Diggle arrive to lend a hand and once the assassins have been seen to Oliver knocks Nyssa unconscious and takes her to a cell at the HQ. We find out that Nyssa is scared that she will not be able to defeat Malcolm on her own and this is why she has been asking Oliver to do this for her it is finally decided that there is only one way to end this and that is in true league style of a trial by combat.

The smoke signal is sent and both sides and all of team arrow arrive on a roof top for the final show down, Malcolm makes a remark that in the interest of Nyssa’s dignity they shall forgo the removal of shirts. Just as the trial is about to begin Oliver shouts wait and announces that as Nyssa’s husband he will fight in her place in the trial much to the shock of everyone involved. The fight starts and after a very even fight between the two Oliver gains the upper had and disarms Malcolm sending him to his knees, Oliver takes the final swing of the sword but instead of killing Malcolm he chops off his hand with the ring on and hands it to Nyssa. Nyssa gives Oliver the rest of the lotus elixir and we see Thea brought back from the brink of death completely unaware of what has happened.

At the end of the episode we see a meeting between Oliver, Nyssa, Laurel and Malcolm only to see Nyssa drop the ring of the league of shadows into a fire and advising all three of them that she has disbanded the league and that her father will no longer be responsible for hurting anyone else. Malcolm turns to Oliver after this and advises that he is not going to kill Oliver as this would be to quick of a mercy and that he has other plans to make him suffer before his death. It doesn’t take long and we see Malcolm meet up with Darhk and advise him that there is someone Oliver Queen loves more than Felicity and that is his son William. (Maybe Oliver would have been better off killing Malcolm when he had the chance.)

Also in this episode we see a flashback once again of Oliver’s time on Lian Yu and we see that Oliver is still locked away in his cell with Vlad’s sister Taiana caring for him. Oliver is trying to make amends with Taiana for killing her brother and opens up about how he ended up on Lian Yu and the fact his dad sacrificed his life in order for Oliver to live so that he could correct his wrongs. He also shows her the stone that he brought out of his vision from the last episode stating that this is something that Reiter needs to find what he is looking for. She waste no time in grabbing the stone from Oliver and demanding to speak to Reiter immediately as he arrives he states that he is not usually summoned by his prisoners but Taiana states that she has something that he wants and shows him the stone he grabs it from her and disappears.

We later see him return to thank him for the last piece of the map and he can now finally find what he has been looking for on the island, He also advises Oliver that he must rest and regain his strength as they start the dig tomorrow. Oliver looks a little confused by this as Reiter states that what he has been looking for is not in the heavens but in the ground beneath them.

The third story arc we see in this episode is between Felicity and her father who also happens to be the calculator. It starts off with the pair meeting for coffee and Felicity trying to find out why her father has left it for so long to make contact with her, he answers with he could not contact her due the police and FBI looking for him. He then states that they are not that different this is something that Felicity takes offence to as he was planning on killing thousands of people and she does what she does to stop people like him. He advises her that he never  intended to carry out the explosion and that he had put fail safes in place to stop that happening, this proves to much for Felicity and she decides to leave but before she can he hands her a flash drive with all the things he has done since he disappeared to show he has been doing some good.

Felicity calls her mum and as she arrives she can see that something is troubling her and Felicity comes clean and advises her that her father is back and that he said he has changed and wants a relationship with her. Her mum advises her that he is not a good man and will never change who he is, Felicity decides to put this to the test and invites her farther to Palmer tech to have an all access tour of the building. As you would imagine they end up in the tech lab of the building and he seems very interested in the work she has been doing since she has been there.

We later find out that after her father had left the lab he has planted a bug that was trying to download all the data files from Palmer tech so at least Felicity now has her answer on whether or not she can trust her father. Felicity invites him back to Palmer tech and immediately confronts him about this actions, just as he is trying to defend what he has done Felicity interrupts him and says she does not want him to be part of her life and that she had not other choice. He turns around to see Captain Lance arriving with two officers to place him under arrest for the crimes he has committed.
