A lot of this sophomore season ofDoom Patrolhas been a waiting game.
The biggest wait, of course, has been regarding Dorothy and her whole thing.
Shes definitely a special, dangerous little girl … even the talking bunny knows this.
(Yes, the metaphor is there, but the show is making the metaphor literal.
This is how TV works.)
The result is a little immortal girl getting her first period and all hell breaking loose.
Its more like a test drive.
But the episode also reveals that more personalities are disappearing, as Lucy Fugue has gone now, too.
(No, theyve not moved on, as Baby Dolls lifeless underwater visage makesveryclear.)
To prove that shes the one who can really get things done.
Pretty sneaky, sis.
But the rest of it?
Everythings coming up Cliff, baby.
Glass houses, Vic Stone.
Your run-of-the-mill muggers are one thing, but ability-infused villains are actually super hero things.
Also, remember when Roni taught Vic about systemic injustice?
Remember when they were in a support group for PTSD?
(Roni punches Vic a bit before he just draws Cyborg arm at her.
Its kind like the Robotman ofDoom Patrolplots.
Plus, the pinnacle of romance for them was apparently eating at a sub sandwich shop.
A tale of true heartbreak, this is not.
If theres any plot in Dad Patrol that needed more daddy issues, its definitely this one.
But they really should.
Also in the Cloverton newspaper?
Our TownsOur Town!Is A Conduit For Clovertons Chaos.
The article must not have mentioned Rita, though, so it makes sense she doesnt mention it.
Again, this is how TV works.
