922: The Team

Post by KODY 105 »

Episode summary
When Emily Jones discovers that Cooper Calhoun is being blackmailed by a faceless hacker, she reluctantly recruits two people who she knows could help – Morrie and Suzu Rydell.
My thoughts
Just what the heck was happening here?! These brigands and child endangerers somehow convinced their victim to help them in their criminal behaviors? Emily was trying to be a force for righteousness among these people, but I would not be so willing. Have you guys ever heard of Stockholm syndrome?

Phil Lollar, shame you on for going along with this travesty of justice even in this fictional world. Is this what you call children's entertainment today?! I might as well go watch HBO; they don't pretend to be the moral high ground and screw up. They just screw up and own it.

1/5

I can’t even… this episode was just so confusing.
I’m intrigued by Seymour but I don’t know what to think of the rest.
The biggest Buck Meltsner + Madison (check out For a Song) ship fan ever! Ship name: Budi (instead of buddy 😜)

Bring Richard Maxwell back!

We need to petition for AIO to come out with a Novacom soundtrack.

Yes, very unsettling. Though somehow still fun. I also think, as I believe I've mentioned on here before, that "kids do dangerous and possibly illegal stuff on their own to help people" plotlines were perceived really differently in previous generations, and it's hard not to listen to them through 21st century adult ears. Would this have fazed me as a kid? Not so sure.
