it's confusing because they can only act when there is evidence of tide pod use, but that includes super powers as if tide pods are the only source of super powers. nexts are born, not made, and there was never any indication that they were restricted to sternbild. i suspect d&k will simply never mention nexts, since their existence would mess up the show's entire premise and medication bullets wouldn't do anything against them.

I'm pretty sure this is a prequel. Agnes is just an anchor instead of a producer and has a different name (marriage?), and I think she looks younger.

it can't be that much of a prequel unless that is agnes' mother. mr. legend was active several decades before hero tv existed.

Kirill is genre aware enough to know they were tripping flags all over the place, but not enough to know naturally the prisoner claiming to be the bottom rung is actually the boss.

Also where is the Boxer and Robot episode, stop holding out on me, show.

it's with the rock bison episode, on a farm out in the country where they can run around all day

they thought that esperanza was ranked from a to z, with a being the leader because that's what zabel told them. it is the opposite. bamboo man might not even be b. also, zabel was arrested on a minor charge and then confessed to killing those 5 people, meaning he deliberately entered prison.

the other prisoner who got dragged off was also scheduled to be executed, and then he was.

zabel was in prison because he wanted to be in prison. he obviously didn't confess back then because he was so intimidated by doug. as for bamboo man, his behavior was nothing but fishy. he left when the clock tolled, rather than when zabel had gotten out. he was out of time, though it's unclear whether that was a duration to his powers or a time limit he adhered to.

you have to remember that the character writing in t&b was off the loving charts, but the plotting often had huge holes in it. zabel's weird, sloppy escape plan was probably intended to be a brilliant scheme.

he might have been humoring the drunk guy. if they actually showed the sun(s) now it would clarify matters.

....huh.

also, there is an approximately 3000% chance that 'vallery vrubel' is an esperanza executive. i'm guessing the only person who will be surprised by this is kirill.

i was expecting max's backstory to be something regrettable or pathetic she had risen past since it involved a high school prom. nope! it turns out that max was always cool as hell and it was everyone else who sucked.

i think kirill is probably good at all sorts of things which are not actually useful

dang, doug's reaction when his dumb prank on kirill ended up making that scene even more harsh.

i think the idea is that despite valery no longer dressing as a woman as a disguise, he's still kirill's brother. people mistake kirill for a woman all the time and valery, like kirill, is incredibly pretty.

i thought valery was a post-op trans man and that kirill was instantly completely cool with it, but i guess not. that would have been a much better explanation, though!

extra episodes most likely means character-centric episodes rather than more of the dumb main plot.
