Castle - The Nose

Continuing the season’s theme of having Castle (Nathan Fillion) work outside the department and horn in on Beckett‘s (Stana Katic) cases in an attempt to win back the affections of his wife (which he hasn’t even lost), “The Nose” centers around a priceless stolen painting and a witness (Stephnie Weir) who can identify the killer not by sight but by smell. Caring just as much about how the woman’s extra-sensory perceptions can tell him about Beckett’s mood, Castle enlists the help of the reluctant witness to help track down the killer and find the painting.

Star Wars Rebels - Relics of the Old Republic

Wrapping up events begun in last week’s episode “The Lost Commanders,” the latest episode of Star Wars Rebels opens with the Empire closing in on the crew of the Ghost and their new Clone allies. Stuck planetside until the Phantom can be fixed, Ezra (Taylor Gray), Kanan (Freddie Prinze Jr.), Sabine (Tiya Sircar), and Zeb (Steven Blum) fight alongside Rex, Wolffe, and Gregor (all voiced by Dee Bradley Baker) against a ground assault of AT-ATs led by Agent Kallus (David Oyelowo) himself. “Relics of the Old Republic” also teases the introduction of a new Inquisitor (Philip Anthony-Rodriguez) who we will no doubt be seeing much more of beginning next week.

The Flash - Family of Rogues

The arrival of Lewis Snart (Michael Ironside) in Central City isn’t a celebration for anyone, including the criminal’s children who he blackmails to service his own ends. After placing a bomb inside the head of Golden Glider (Peyton List), Lewis forces Captain Cold (Wentworth Miller) to join his old man’s crew and help with his next big heist. Although I’m still not completely sold on the idea of Cold as a good guy, “Family of Rogues” does take an important first-step in moving the villain onto a new path which will likely culminate with his involvement in Legends of Tomorrow.

Scorpion - Super Fun Guys

To find a late-era Soviet nuke before it is sold on the black market, Team Scorpion heads to Kazakhstan undercover as a film crew working on “Super Fun Guy The Movie,” which of course makes Sylvester (Ari Stidham) deliriously happy except when Megan’s (Camille Guaty) surgery is moved up, a fact she doesn’t want Walter (Elyes Gabel) to know about, and he is forced to stay behind to lend his support without letting his friends know why. Although they are able to find the nuke before the sale, Walter and his friends are made by one of the mercenaries and find themselves trapped in a foreign country without outside assistance and still needing to stop the sale of the deadly weapon.

Once Upon a Time - The Broken Kingdom

With only the episode’s final scene taking place in present day in Storybrooke, “The Broken Kingdom” spends nearly the entire hour better explaining events in Camelot both before and after our heroes’ arrival. The dual flashbacks continue showing us events following David (Josh Dallas) taking a spot on the Round Table while also showing us Camelot five years prior in scenes that not only reveal the show’s version of the Arthur (Liam Garrigan) / Guinevere (Joana Metrass) / Lancelot (Sinqua Walls) triangle but also the true motivations of Camelot’s king.
