It’s time for some more brutal truths as everyone confronts each other about their current and previous secrets. Rachel still can’t seem to control the power growing inside her and even the presence of Kory doesn’t bring her the peace she was after.

There is so much to enjoy about this episode. The immediacy of the plot and how it unfolds are just two of the things that make it worth watching. The action is fantastic and Esai Morales continues to be menacing and tragic as Deathstroke. All of the acting is amazing and the reveals are intense. Can’t wait to see what happens next.
