But I think this episode did the best job of presenting the issue and then having Ryan, Luke, and Sophie offer different points of view when it comes to the problem of the police force.

    I could've watched a whole episode with Ryan, Luke, and Sophie in jail just talking. Well, with that as the A-story, Mary and Jacob as the B-story, and then Alice as the C-story. After the ordeal he went through, I don't understand why Luke even approached Eli. Did he think they were friends? Nothing good was going to come from that. I could see them going more the Oracle route than Batwing with Luke, especially since it was looking like Sophie wants a masked vigilante identity of her own.
    I guess the show might not resist having another OC get a Superhero identity.

The S1 tougher version of Jacob Kane never would've gone that route. Alice is really the only character to really be watching this show for currently.
    The Kate angle is laughable and bad. This weeks "woke" show about cops only had Luke showing the intelligent, not privileged, course of action but the hot heads couldn't be bothered with reason. Displaying attitude gets you in jail when where you are really needed is elsewhere. *eyeroll*

    I'm just stunned with the ratings drop that CW early renewed this for a S3.
    To be honest I thought this was the first episode where I actually liked Jacob in a while.

    And the show had Ryan realize that she may have acted too rashly. We saw that Luke's method was actually working before she doubled-down on talking back.

    They really should just steal Carl Lumbly from Marvel and establish that M.A.N.T.I.S. actually existed in post-crisis Arrowverse(yeah, I'm still calling it that) - who wouldn't want to see "Old Man M.A.N.T.I.S.?"

    But he already played J'onn's father on Supergirl. I guess it could be a Crisis thing...

    It's always better to keep your powder dry until you have no other choice. It doesn't matter what your color is, either. Two of my brothers had cuffs on them momentarily because of their own rashness with police officers.

    So I was scrolling through Instagram... and came across very blurry photos of Luke in the Batwing suit. Looks like he will be suiting up after all this season.

    Not that I'm against it, but where does this come from? Luke has no combat training whatsoever so far.

    I think he'll probably be relying on the tech in the suit.

    This Luke Fox is less prepared to be Batwing than Ryan Wilder was to become Batwoman II.

    He does know how to box, which is at least something.

    That's why I thought they'd go with Sophie.

    Here is an article that has those very blurry pics.

    Let's not be too hasty. The man was just shot, and coma dreams/fantasies are a thing on TV.

    Except that we know those scenes were shot for the finale, on account of when they were filmed. Based on this, Camrus earlier filmed an outdoor scene with Javicia that would put it somewhere in episode 16 or 17.
