For me, this was the weakest Legacies episode so far out of the bunch. I mean, of course I enjoy Hope, Landon, Alaric, and Reluctant Alpha, but I also enjoy having the gemini twins around to brighten the mood. As much as I love this stoic crew, I'm already tired of watching sullen Hope and "Im Trying Soooooo Hard/Im soo nice/Im gonna let you lie & not be afraid of losing you" Landon try to navigate being a couple. (Maybe I should've been less wordy and called him "considerate" but there was more baggage than just "considerate." Does Landon have to epistolize every insecurity? Ramble on and on about how great it is that he's okay with Hope putting up some walls? And she like melted, as if he had recited RIlke to her, which, for the record, he did not.) Meanwhile, the chemistry odometer started pointing to Raf instead.
Anyway, there was also more they could have done with the dreams that they didn't.
The best part was following the Triad agent. He had the Damon smirk, kindof, but not the Damon charm, so I'll call him Watered-Down-Damon-Dude for now. Watered-Down-Damon-Dude approached an older couple, pretending to work for the state in foster care. The couple repeated over and over that "So and so was adopted by a nice family in Virginia" no matter what he threatened. (only a few felonies, but they looked pretty scared.) This 2 minute section was so exciting, in comparison to the rest of the episode anyway, that I practically squealed. Yay! Some plot movement.
(I'm also happy to relay that this and Charmed have been renewed.)
MG’s “feminist” bullshit is getting annoying, god I hope he’ll be written out of the show at this point... Dracula is a patriarch who needs to ask for consent to take blood? Shut up.
