![]() Then, while Cary is out of it, we’re treated to a fun sequence that finds Cary and Kerry switching clothing, mimicking each other’s movements before dancing, and eventually concluding with Kerry demanding to lead in their dance before morphing into David. Division 3 uses Squirrel, the “alchemist” that they seized in last week’s attempted siege, as bait to locate David or Lenny, but in the ensuing surprise attack, Lenny gets away with Cary in her clutches. Switch attempts to bring David with her through the portal that she creates to the time “hallway” but David cannot pass through. However, how can we be sure he’s not using his masterful lying on Syd? After all, this is the same demon parasite that we saw commit crimes just as awful if not worse than David, who’s “whispers” could still be manipulating the Division 3 team for his own benefit.Įlsewhere, the plot moves forward with David kidnapping Cary to have him make “a tank or a tool” to enhance Switch’s powers. The only way Farouk sees getting to David is through emotional intimacy, and despite the fact that it makes Syd recoil in disgust, Farouk suggests he’ll teach Syd how to lie so well that David won’t see a betrayal coming.

The blue peace and love drug that David synthesizes begins to turn red and quickly transforms into a rage cocktail. ![]() The brief conversation doesn’t go the way that David plans, and it causes him to finally lose control over the negative, nagging voices in his head. At this point, David’s wounded pride is driving his desire to “save the world,” not for everyone else, but for himself. David has shown no real reflection or willingness to accept fault in what he’s done, still convinced he just made a lapse in judgement and that he’s capable of fixing it all with some mutant hijinks. ![]() In fact, the time travel plan is just a continuation of David’s original crime, in that it won’t erase what David has done, it will just prevent Syd from knowing about it. In Syd’s eyes, going back and changing the past won’t change the fact that David is still the man capable of essentially drugging and assaulting a woman against her will.
