What I’m Watching: Legends of Tomorrow

Legends of Tomorrow: Season 6, Episode 14 “There Will Be Brood” (B)

Well, things aren’t looking too good for Constantine, and not so good for Mick either. Those two have long been mainstays on this show, Mick being one of only two original cast members still around (Sara is the other). It’s not clear that Mick has died, but I don’t see much hope for Constantine, who, to be fair, did double-cross Bishop and end up paying the price for it since the jovial intergalactic explorer saw that betrayal coming. It always seems like the universe is so small since the trip back in time to find the fountain meant a run-in with a woman that Spooner intuitively knew was her mother, and Astra of all people had to be the one to talk her out of changing history so that she didn’t have to experience the pain of being separated from her mother at such a young age. Spooner did channel all that pain into showing the men who were trying to terrify her mother into submission what real pain felt like, which was a formidable show of her powers that didn’t just involve alien communication as it usually does. Speaking of alien communication, the legends were annoyed when they found out how easy it was for Gary to send Kayla a message to get her there, and her desire to protect her babies did the trick to convince her to help them find the ship. Unfortunately, Bishop’s little game seems to have taken Mick out and caused some irreparable damage that at the very least is going to be emotional for a few members of the team and their newest potential ally.
