Loki - Breaking Bad

Largely ignoring more immediate threats, Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and Mobius (Owen Wilson) go in search of the missing Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino) which leads them to Hunter X-05 (Rafael Casal) who abandoned his hunt for Sylvie to live out his life as a movie star in the late 1970s. The majority of the episode features Loki and Mobius capturing X-05 and then threatening and torturing him for information (showing off a bit of Loki’s more sinister side) before eventually leading to Loki’s reunion with Sylvie and basically lucking into a discovery of just what some members of the TVA are up to.

Darth Vader #39

Continuing the “Dark Droids” crossover event, on Mustafar an infected Zed sends an Octuptarra tri-droid after Darth Vader in an attempt to finally put the Dark Lord of the Sith down. It’s another issue of a struggling Vader facing off against dangerous droids (although I could never quite buy the Octuptarra as a Sith-killer). The attack forces Vader to stop relying on the crutches which helped him reconnect with the Force and reclaim his power once more.

The Irrational - The Barnum Effect

Three episodes in the show seems to have found its formula with the FBI being completely clueless about a crime, ready to place blame on the wrong suspect, and utterly reliant on Alec Mercer (Jesse L. Martin) to find the truth. The case of the week involves a plane crash authorities are all too willing to blame on pilot error, although thanks to some sleuthing by Alex, his assistants, and the victim’s brother, someone far more sinister is eventually uncovered. Highlights continue to be how the show works in psychological experiments into the show’s premise while the breadcrumbs of Alec’s past tragedy and who his wife is currently aren’t nearly as engaging.
