Well we already had Stein commenting on his "natural athleticism" when they were trying to figure out who to use to replace Ronny when he died. Admittedly he was a good football player who injured himself and lost a scholarship, but that was one hell of an awkward line.

Welp. Suckers the nice big oaf into helping cart along his drugged kid. Classy, Stein.

Congrats, you get a harsh lesson in temporal mechanics! Your son died because you insisted on dragging him along because you wanted to interfere with time because you insisted on trying to save him from dying because he was destined to die because you insisted on trying to save him from dying.

I'm pretty happy they managed to hide this twist and hyped up the cover story so much.

That and even Stein wanting to murder the gently caress out of him for it.

I'm kind of hoping that's just the lie he fed Mick to get him to come along to be honest, because it doesn't really gel well with his motivations of wanting to beat the system and pull off difficult heists and so on but it does line up well with Heatwave's motivations, since he just wants things as easy as possible. It makes more sense that Cold would want to pull heists off despite being surrounded by heroes and under the watch of a time lord than that he'd want to do them when things were simpler and offered less challenge.

Would mesh well with them all being lied to in order to come along for the ride in the first place.

So Time Masters are discouraged from marriage or families because they don't need "entanglements," and when Rip's family died the Time Masters refused to help. So he's really Anakin Timewalker.

Does the fact that Rip has "seen Men of Steel die and Dark Knights fall" imply that there's a Superman and Batman in their universe? Could be a dumb theory, but it was just a random thought I had

Now that he has more to do he's putting up a better showing. They're also doing a wonderful job of establishing why he's so dangerous with this episode. He has all the time in the world, and a long memory.

Seriously. You know he'll just come back. Just shoot him in the head, finish the job while he's down.

Although I'm pretty okay with the "lets kill Vandal in different ways each time we find him from now on" plan that Rick seems to have going now.

Couldn't they have, I don't know, tried to do something other than just let the small yield nuclear explosion go off in the middle of a gulag? Seems unfortunate for all those prisoners.

Stein is playing a great wingman

I'm kind of amused by the idea he might be compelled to due to the whole shared emotions thing. Either literally unable to resist doing it, or wanting to do it because it helps the horrible 20-something hormone and emotion flood go away.

Pretty sure Chronos never talked before last week's episode.

He talked during the pilot at least, when he shoots the two stoners who were where the Waverider had just taken off from. They ask what he's doing and he says he's making sure that they're not temporally significant before he kills them.
