Go To

PRIDE desperately tries to clean up the latest mess without involving Jonah, but the group may not be able to handle it without help.


  • Can't Kill You, Still Need You: Normally, PRIDE wouldn't be that concerned with Victor dying, but Jonah says he's still needed for the excavation, and is in fact more important than every other member.
  • Mythology Gag: "Tsunami", the episode title, is also the name of the Marvel Comics imprint that originally published Runaways.
  • Noodle Incident: Geoffrey says that the last time they got a "tsunami" message, they found the Hernandezes "in pieces".
  • Title Drop: "Tsunami" is the PRIDE's code for an emergency.
  • Travelling at the Speed of Plot: Leslie shows up so fast at the Steins' workshop/basement that you'd think she teleported. In the previous scene she had overheard Karolina leaving a message at Nico's voicemail.
  • Would Hurt a Child: Jonah says that if Victor dies, he'll not only kill the rest of PRIDE, but also their children. Then, when they're still wavering, Jonah says either Janet will be the sacrifice, or Chase will.
