Transformers #5

In between both the Autobots and the Decepticons racing to rebuild their forces to get an upper hand in their never-ending war, we get a couple of battles and some moments of the Autobots with their new human friends. Transformers #5 offers some fun moments such as Starscream‘s glee in choosing how to widening the numbers of Deceptions, and later, when the Autobots make a run at the Ark, revealing the not-to-little surprise for him. Of course we also get the sheer terror from the character is seeing what Optimus Prime is now using for an arm.

Resident Alien - Lone Wolf

Building on storylines begun last season, Harry (Alan Tudyk) has gone to work for General McCallister (Linda Hamilton) while also continuing his work as town doctor in Patience. Just how Harry actually balances both is a bit unclear. Although his struggles to work as a member of McCallister’s team is certainly documented, making that work with Harry’s life back in Patience without feeling like filler is going to take a little work. When Joseph (Enver Gjokaj) shows up in town as the new deputy looking for answers as to why Harry didn’t leave the Earth and showing some interest in Asta (Sara Tomko), Harry decides to try and spy on Asta and Joseph’s date rather than reveal the truth.

Delicious in Dungeon - Court Cuisine/Boiled in Salt Water

“Court Cuisine/Boiled in Salt Water” continues the show’s theme of finding food in usual places. The first-half of the episode deals with Laios (Damien C. Haas) and his failed attempts to find sustenance within Living Paintings where he struggles to find a meal, and even when finally doing so, returns only to discover the food has no substance in his world. Jumping through several paintings all within the same part of the dungeon, Laios begins to visit the same people at different times in their lives and draws the attention of an elf who begins to suspect Laois may be responsible for the kingdom’s troubles. I’ll be curious to see if the show picks up this thread later on in the series.

Death and Other Details - Tragic

After her short romantic bliss with Jules (Hugo Diego Garcia), Imogene (Violett Beane) reality crashes back down to earth once she learns Rufus (Mandy Patinkin) has connected her new beau to Victor Sams who also claims a new victim on the ship preventing Alexandra (Tamberla Perry) for divulging any of dirty little secrets to Interpol. “Tragic” fills in Jules’ backstory as well as providing another confession by Rufus (which is the shakiest sequence of the the entire episode as the episode flipflops again on just how good a detective Rufus really is). Heading into the final two episodes, next week will put the focus back on the murder of Imogene’s mother with the finale bringing all events to a head and revealing a murderer.

The Irrational - Bombshell

My biggest complaint with “Bombshell” is how obvious the resolution of the episode is in not furthering the series-long story in any meaningful way. After escaping prison, Wes Banning (Ben Cotton) builds a bomb vest and shows up at the university to hold Alec (Jesse L. Martin), Phoebe (Molly Kunz), and Owen (Arash DeMaxi) hostage. During the episode, Alec earns the man’s trust and discovers the motivations behind the bomb that sent Banning to prison. Agreeing to help save Banning’s daughter (Siana Bajwa), Alec saves himself and his assistants, but because Banning dies at the end of the episode he never lives up to his end of the bargain and dies without revealing any new information about the man responsible thus keeping the status quo of the series intact.
