Why do I get the feeling that Ava is Sara's daughter or something based on the abrupt secret that Sara apparently isn't allowed to know.
Why does the internet always default to incest?

Rip's daughter was the first thought I had but it could probably be a lot of things. Or the abberration thing kind of makes sense. But the fact that Rip called Ava "special" suggested to me that he cares about her so the daughter thing makes sense.

Pretty much. I've read a couple of interviews with him and he says he won't kiss anyone on camera and doesn't do hard swearing or taking the Lord's name in vain because he's a practicing Catholic IRL, but other than that, game on, let's have some fun. And I respect that in him. Dude knows his limits and he's just having a blast with Darhk.

I love the line drawn that he can play a genocidal magic man who sells his daughter to a demon to be resurrected but saying "drat" would be crossing a line. That's just charming.

I thought Rip had a son, not a daughter?

If Ava is related to someone it will be from Flash/Arrow to setup a crossover episode.

Yeah, time fuckery has an established gender swapping affect.

I mean, its all baseless speculation. It was just my first thought since Rip seemed to be less worried about Ava as some kind of a threat to Sara and more connected to her and wanting to hide some truth. It could be just about anything I suppose. Maybe Ava is the daughter of Nora and Ray and Rip is worried Sara would be upset she's hooking up with a Darkh? Who the hell knows? The daughter thing was just the first thought I had.

I assume Ava is the mystery totem in human form. Then at some point she's going to have to sacrifice herself to stop Mullus.

I'm pretty sure the 6th totem is "death" based on some article I read recently. Also, Rory becomes the fire totem bearer, so they aren't bringing Jax back.

Plus, Gideon literally wants to bang him, she is that close with him at this point. That has been confirmed. She is in love with him. So if it came down to a coin flip of Rip v. Time Idiots, she’s side with Rip pretty much every time, I think, unless he was 100% demonstrably wrong about something and she knew that he was.

I actually disagree with this. Gideon's been getting more and more independent/sassy the longer she hangs around this crew. Eventually, Rip's going to run out of triggers and/or clout and Gideon'll tell him to knock it off or go gently caress himself.

Honestly, that was a pretty middling episode. The main plot never really worked, but it was still Legends and therefore fun.

I disagree, I actually found it pretty moving, even if it was a little cheesy.

Also, Elvis was briefly the sole arbitrator of life and death.

Yea I loved how instead of “depowering” Wally, they just told him to not solve everything with superspeed so that the others get something to do. So far he’s been great on this, I hope he sticks around. :D

One thing that scares me is that I pretty much love every character on the show now (and now Wally) that I'm afraid they will have to bump some of them off the list because they have so many.

Did it seem like Elvis' uncle flip flopped super quick? I mean he went from seeing something supernatural and deemed to be the work of the devil in his mind, to somehow getting Elvis thrown in jail and taking his record, to giving up the record after a roughly 30 second speech? Seriously thought he was just going to take longer to have an epiphany or at least smash the record and the Legends would have to do something silly to fix it like re-record it themselves...but nope, he just hands it over and goes "Man, am I that easy to read. I just wanna understand the youths!"

I was 95% sure he was about to smash it and two different points this episode.

I absolutely love that Uncle Pastor comes around with a rousing speech and that he wasn't really evil. That was refreshing. Also can't get enough of Wally using his powers like you'd expect a speedster to, which is nice given how they kept inventing ways for Firestorm to be benched. I'm sure him using powers competently won't last, but Wally is a great addition to the show after being wasted on The Flash for too long.

Mick is still the best, though.
