Moving the arc of the season closer to the return of Hope‘s (Danielle Rose Russell) humanity, Hope and the Super Squad work on game planning their upcoming conflict with the gods with the help of Vardemus (Alexis Denisof) and Wade (Elijah B. Moore). While the show goes for low-key training simulations, the moral of the story is that the squad has no chance against the gods under current circumstances forcing Hope to listen to the voice in her head gaining strength with every small victory. The simulations predict that Hope, with her humanity restored, can lead the team to victory, but the tribrid isn’t ready to take that step just yet.

Two investigations collide when the latest name on the Blacklist, who may have some involvement in Elizabeth Keen‘s death, turns out to be the same graduate student Harold (Harry Lennix) had the Marshal Service disappear into protective service because the man is somehow connected to the attempt to frame an Assistant Director of the FBI for murder.  The team quickly discovers the connection causing suspicion and distrust, and forcing Harold to come clean to them and Reddington (James Spader), and later Panabaker (Deirdre Lovejoy), about his recent actions.

The Flash – Reckless

While Iris (Candice Patton) remains in Coast City to deal with her “time sickness” (seriously?) and attempt to help Tinya (Mika Abdalla), Team Flash continue to search for the Black Flame (which may or may not have ties to a member of the team’s past). Over objections, the team decides to use Frost (Danielle Panabaker) as bait to lure out the meta with the help of Dr. Carla Tannhauser (Susan Walters) who has been keeping a secret about her own latent metagene. Other than exploring the theme that Frost tends to be the most reckless member of her family, the episode is your typical mid-season forgettable fare where Team Flash’s plans end up with mixed results.

Wolf Like Me – Episode 5

  • Title: Wolf Like Me – Episode 5
  • IMDb: link

The penultimate episode of Wolf Like Me gives us the calm before the storm that, given what we’ve seen foreshadowed in the show already, we know is coming. “Episode 5” explores the relationship between Mary (Isla Fisher) and Gary (Josh Gad) who finally give into their feelings. Gary introduces her to his friends, Emma spends more time with his daughter, and life is good. However…. there is that secret they haven’t yet told Emma (Ariel Donoghue) and a new surprise Mary has in store for Gary. It’s a fun, sweet episode that shows us what can be built on love while laying a cracked foundation of a very big secret.

Moon Knight – Summon the Suit

Having watched the first four episodes of Disney+’s Moon Knight, it’s easy for me to say that the show’s second episode is my favorite. After a teasing introductory episodes (as has become the format of all the Disney+ Marvel shows), “Summon the Suit” gets down to business. It also finds a way to work in the more buttoned down version of Moon Knight’s costume (with a valid reason for it to exist) along with something closer to the classic look (which we got at the end of the first episode).
