First time I ever felt anything for the Stingray character. Well done.

How does "shove that ponytail up your @ss" translate into Japanese?
Just to add, I am wondering about the escalation. "All-Valley" to "Global" tournament. What will that leave for future seasons? Extraterrestrial contact for the "All Galaxy" tournament?

Nice takedown of Kreese, who still didn't learn the right lesson during his stint in prison.

"I'd like to buy a car if it's not too inconvenient for you."
"You're interrupting a meeting of the Miyagi-Do Illuminati."
Interruption guy needs to be a recurring character. Laughed my butt off.

Manipulative bunch of cast & crew, writers & producers got me legit tearing up over here. Damn.

Johnny giving it straight to Daniel was the scene I wanted to see. Daniel has always played a part in the ongoing antagonism, despite his good intentions.

I wonder if Cameron is actually going to get to interact with the rest of the cast this season and not just a single scene or two with Courtney and his grandparents (and the one scene he had with Cindy).
In any event, as far as suspects go, I could see where a puncture wound caused by something that melts away later (like an icicle?) would be a great murder weapon. Wouldn't explain the state of the RV, though.

I tend to agree with Johntfs for all the reasons he mentioned, plus NuBoss seemed just as surprised as everyone else that Jen turned into She-Hulk for someone who somehow knew that she was hiding an alter-ego.

It just occurred to me that Blonsky's "seven wonderful friends" could be these guys. Maybe we can get another Marvel-Netflix name drop in this series besides the one already known.

I wonder if Bruce is going to turn up at the end of the season seeking Jen's representation in a paternity suit?

I think there’s more from episode 8 that we’re missing. Bruce didn’t go looking for her in the forest after the car accident? And she was unconscious from the time she beat up the bar guys, until she woke up in Bruce’s spare bedroom… in Mexico?
I think he was looking for her, he just couldn't find her. She was able presumably to call him, and he came for her at the bar (tackling her to keep her from assaulting those catcalling punks). As for how she got to Mexico, Bruce can jump really, really far (though I'm actually not sure what city She-Hulk is supposed to be set in. Is it New York, because that is a different story than if it were California. So, some suspension of disbelief required for sure.)

But then Jen woulda heard long before Bruce told her.
Maybe? I mean that woman is probably dead by now, and Captain America was missing for decades, so I'm not sure the rumor mill would necessarily still be going on that one. Maybe some gossip rag dug up that rumor and printed it and Jen knew about it... she did seem to be trying to get Bruce to confirm that Cap wasn't a virgin rather than that he was (based on the cut scene. "I knew it!!!")

As for all the stuff about Steve and his virginity, I just want to know how Bruce found out. I don't see Steve casually talking about his sex life, so I'm thinking either Tony annoyed him to that point that he finally told them or maybe Steve and Thor were having a "never have I ever" game with some quality Asgardian mead and it slipped out.
I tend to agree that Steve wouldn't have casually talked about it. My fan theories:
1) He might have said something like "there was a special someone I met shortly after becoming Captain America" to Sam, and that got "telephone game'd" into Steve lost it to a girl on the USO tour. Or (more likely)
2) That girl on the USO tour would have been telling everyone about it as soon as Steve exploded as America's Greatest War Hero. Howard Stark heard it on the rumor mill, and told his son about it once when the two of them were having a rare bonding night when Tony was still young. From Tony's lips to Bruce's ears...

But I truly don't understand why there was a fake painting.
I can buy the explanation that you wouldn't want to hang a multimillion dollar painting in your apartment where it could get stolen or damaged fairly easily.
(Putting the original under your birdcage is a different story, though).

The "Innie Mark is surprised to discover his mentor Ricken" reveal would have been more believable if there hadn't been several large photos of Ricken's face plastered all over the walls (and bathroom) that Innie Mark somehow failed to notice.
Did anyone else find it disturbing that the one guy was shouting "I found her! I'm the one that found your baby!" when Mark S. discovered baby Eleanor? He was so obsessed that he get the credit for it. I think that Ricken's cult is just as dangerous as Kier's.

I was pretty disappointed in last week's episode (even fell asleep). It seemed incongruous to me that the Gene storyline teased out over the past several seasons would end so blandly.
Happy to see that it wasn't the end of that story, though. I suspect something big must have happened to throw "Gene" over the edge. My bet: either the receptionist told him Kim remarried or that Kim passed away, and now Jimmy has no reason for hope and is completely reckless.
I'm still disappointed that Mike's storyline, that Jonathan Banks has so profoundly, empathically captured these past few seasons, seems to be just getting shuffled to the sidelines for the finale (I suppose the writers felt that his coda was adequately captured in Breaking Bad's final seasons? I disagree, and I still think JB should have gotten an Emmy for his S2 performance).

Now, from the scene in the park, we can guess that the masked character is a thin young man. In the subway we see that he is quite tall (the belly is fake). Cinda, Poppy and Cara were in another place when the masked character appears. And there is no super fan (or in fact any other character in the series) that physically resembles him. The only possibility left is ...
Luís, Cinda's assistant !!!
How about Arnav?

I am thinking too slow too much filler. And then boom. How far did we jump?
The license plate tags on Saul's car said November '05. So, maybe not that far a leap (depending on whether/if Saul actually renews his registration properly.)
EDIT: Late to the party. Now that I'm on page 2, I see that Sailorgirl26 beat me to it.

I thought I'd missed an episode or something because the start of this episode most things felt unearned.
I had the same feeling. When Hughie told Annie that SB was having misgivings about killing his kid, I was like - "When did Hughie find that out? I thought only SB knew? Did I miss something?"

I enjoyed the episode, but there was some awkward dialogue in this one, mainly in a couple of Huey's scenes. His "we save everyone whether they deserve it or not. Especially if they don't" was a terrible line that should have gotten cut; it was stupid and not as strong as someone apparently thought it was in the writer's room. I also thought his apology with Annie in the car came from out of nowhere, was unearned, and she forgave him too easily.
Still waiting for A-Train to get his comeuppance, but I think the writers get some kind of masochistic kick out of the abuse they heap on him and the Deep too much to get rid of either of them.

I'm also wondering if A-Train's near death experience and his grief over his brother's condition will cause him to fully commit to his redemption or if his renewed health will encourage him to continue on as he has been.
I feel like if they haven't had A-Train redeem himself by this point (after 3, 4 opportunities?) the writers aren't planning on having him turn a new leaf at all.
1 hour ago, Aithne said:Presumably that what knocked Soldier Boy out need not have been an anesthetic gas, as MM had assumed when he tried to use the halothane, but that it could've been something else (this nerve agent) and the vapor was just a way to make it able to be inhaled.
Frenchie identified it as Novichok, aka Putin's favorite assassination tool. It's kind of strange that they would have used it on Soldier Boy to try and take him hostage, as it is very, very lethal. Maybe it affects him differently than other people due to his body chemistry (ie, interacts differently with Compound V).
It does explain SB's high levels of radiation, though.ETA: Correcting myself, as I just realized I was confusing Novichok (nerve agent) with Polonium (radioactive poison), Putin's other favorite assassination tool.

It's not Earth-Prime. Check the interview I posted above.
Thanks for that; I was just about to start looking around to see if anyone had written anything up.
Kind of a strange way to do it, given some of the prior references, but I'm okay with it. Maybe this means we can get a Green Lantern Diggle in this world?

This finale was only okay for me. It fell kind of flat- I think the writers left too many storylines to try and tie up in one episode. The end result felt like a lot of people standing around and having things happen to them, waiting for a plot Macguffin to level up Superman so he could beat the bad guy and everything's back to normal. I didn't feel the Lana/Clark or Sarah/Jordan storylines really got the resolutions they deserved. I'm not entirely sure what the point was of having Bizarro Lois show up and stand around looking like she was haunting Kent ranch. Did we ever get closure on Bizarro Jon's story (I forget). Plus confusion about whether this is Arrowverse or not (it's got Diggle, but Daddy Lane mentioned this earth only having Superman, so... not sure).
