I thought it was a nice new storyline setup. I’m guessing the hippie cult was some sort of sleeper agent workshop? That Thomas’s dad’s scary evil girlfriend is in charge of? I don’t know yet, really, but I’m interested.

Does Thomas really think Martha works as a public records admin? Because even if we hadn’t seen already that she doesn’t, I wouldn’t have bought that story for a second.

And hee, to Martha dropping f-bombs every time she ran late, once right after she was talking about her daughter’s upcoming fifth birthday. Oh, Martha, never change.

Great seeing this show back again, and with a time jump! Its now the 70s, or at least the shows weird alternate universe of the 70s, and Alfie's doing pretty good. But of course, even as he just tries to do his job, he's inevitably going to get pulled into some massive government conspiracy, this time involving Thomas's dad, his scary girlfriend/possible handler, and this creepy hippie cult. Are they using drugs to turn the hippies into sleeper agents? Sounds like its going to be a fun season? 

Samantha is really cute and Thomas and Martha are adorable parents, but I am really concerned about little Samantha. Unless they really change a lot about the Batman mythos, Bruce doesn't have a big sister, and that makes me very concerned for her...
