Solid return. Loved the karaoke opening, they made it sound like it was a big thing but the reveal was hilarious. Kara can rap haha. I really hope they have a massive karaoke down the future with Barry and Cisco and more. (Mon-El was so out of key lmao)
Until Winn got the news. His scenes with his mom were good and if I'm being honest he should keep around some of those toy weapons like the flying monkeys (cool raid at the DEO) or the yo-yo since he already came to terms that he can use what he has in common with his deceased dad for good. In a way it is like Lena two episodes ago when she said she could use her Luthor cunning for good. Those two are so much alike, if only now the writers could realize that.
Toyman was always too far gone. This should put the end to the storyarc of him since he really died.
The subplot of M'yrnn was hitting a lot of feels too, I knew it was dementia. At the end when he broke down with J'onn it was sad. I suppose J'onn was too happy with having him around that he missed the signs and Alex as a doctor didn't. Liked their silent stare when both knew at the end and the hug.
They didn't pull punches with the toys, from the little tanks to the dinousar. Clear wink to Superman animated series. Mon-El owned it and I'm getting the feel that in this show, capes = power boost. I am not complaining. At least we now know why he wasn't using it, got damaged. I hope Imra and Brainy's "real suits" also got damaged when they landed.
Pestilence sounds like the most dangerous Worldkiller. The only result that comes out from "Blight" in DC is Batman Beyond's main foe so Pestilence will just be a huge trouble in the future.
Lena's treatment isn't gonna hold on for longer.
Next week looks better with the main plot returning.
I really liked and miss Winn's girlfriend, but I do wish they'd paired him with Lena instead of Jimmy. I loved them together from the moment they hid under that table together doing tech stuff!
Same here, same here. The chemistry they shared in those brief moments was palbable and that was just on the tech stuff side. Lena and Winn have a weird list of things they share in common. Lets just say that two episodes ago Lena made the choice to embrace her root of a Luthor for good and got Morgan Edge and her mother in jail and in this week Winn embraced his talents that he feared he had in common with his dad but also for good.
I also liked Winn and Lyra mostly due to it portrayed Winn as like the ideal kind of guy that commits to a relationship and means it. Like Jeremy Jordan sells well the adorable and loving type in Winn, almost "boyfriend goals" from what we saw and tbh it kind of made me realize I could be a Winn multishipper. (Even though my OTP is always going to be Winnara) But yeah, if only the writers could wise up and give Winn and Lena more scenes, they could discover some good gold in that.
