This show is just so fun.

Which, for the story, means something is going to go wrong soon. But it's still very enjoyable.

That was a pretty fun episode. Guess whoever that was at the end will be the season villain

Please let it be an established Hellblazer villain, like the First of the Fallen, or Merlin.

If Merlin is the Big Bad, then we definitely need to get an episode with Etrigan the Demon. Hell, the entire reason that Jason Blood and Etrigan are linked is because of Merlin.

I can't see them doing the First of the Fallen. For one thing, it's a bit too heavy for LOT — and for another, they already faced an all-powerful demon last season. The First of the Fallen is basically just the Devil (or "God's shadow" or something), so...I'm guessing not him.

Ever since they announced Constantine would be joining Legends, I've had this theory that they're gonna do a loose adaptation of the story where John sells his soul to a demon to cure him of lung cancer. It could be one of those Deal with the Devil contracts where the devil comes to collect your soul a specific length of time after making the deal. But if Constantine joins the Legends traveling through history, he can avoid ever reaching the date his soul is due on. If a demon's going to drag him to hell on, say, November 11th, 2018, then he just has to travel to the past and make sure he never returns to 11/11/18 or later, and he gets off on a technicality.

That sort of ulterior motive and manipulating a mystical contract, seems very John Constantine.

I can't believe I forgot to mention the amazing casting of Nate's dad.

You really couldn't go better with a time travel show.

Can't they just pick up Nate right after his dinner?

Precision time travel has never really been the time ship's speciality, except in the most dramatic of situations.

So why is Nate hanging out with Ava and nerd dude?

I was forced to leave for a moment so I missed that plot point.

Anyway, you don't see too many evil Fairy Godmothers.

I like Nate at the Time Bureau. Him being there gives us more of a reason to care what happens there, other than Ava and Gary. Also, Nate and Ava do make a good team, although I also enjoy the fact that there is and will be zero sexual tension between the two.

Man, Zari really killed it this episode. When she was pulling out people's breaths, I was like, "Man, she's going full Zaheer on us." Luckily, she didn't, but this was a great showcase for her. Although I do wonder why the Legends couldn't just fake the mom's death and then save her anyway, like they did with Helen of Troy.

Putting aside some of the other logic issues, is it a good idea for the Time Bureau to be getting a budget from a particular point of time. Given their purpose, that seems like it would screw them up.

Anyway, you don't see too many evil Fairy Godmothers.

Shrek 2 is still my favorite example of it.

[up][up] You know, that's a good point. It would probably be easier for them to make a base a thousand years in the future (that's when the utopia starts in the comics, right?) and monitor the timeline from there. But for whatever reason, Rip founded them in our present, meaning all the agents are from there and that's where they remain based.

If Rip based them a thousand years in the future, they would have inevitably come in conflict with the Time Masters, who, even though they are dead now, would still be alive in the future-past.

Well I can kinda see the logic.

If you want to prove them wrong, do what they wouldn't expect and spare their lives. It's supposed to show you are a better person than they say you are.

Unfortunately, it usually just results in said jerkasses then succeeding in whatever it is they were trying to do (usually killing you) and not really changing at all, making you a Doomed Moral Victor.

It does make me wish more dudes were concerned with stopping the problem than proving a point. Self Defence technically isn't sinking to their level.

Self Defence technically isn't sinking to their level.
But at that point in the episode, Prudence had already saved her mother. Killing the preacher, then, would have been entirely for revenge.

I guess. I'd forgotten that bit.

I suppose it's because you can understand why she'd want to do it.
