On a snowy day, the couple stumbled upon a crane caught in a trap and set it free. Shortly after, when the snow stopped, a young woman arrives on the couples doorstep and asks for shelter. RHY11J.jpeg' alt='Super Friends Season 1 Episode Guide' title='Super Friends Season 1 Episode Guide' />The young woman turned out to be a talented seamstress, making the couple wealthy with her wares, on the condition that they never watch while she worked. But when the couple finally couldnt resist the urge to peek anymore, they discovered the young woman was actually the crane they had savedand she promptly flew off, never to be seen again. We later learn that the voice of the coffee machine, and of Summerland in general, belongs to Dr. Birds late husband. This story he tolda version of an old Japanese folktaleis just vague enough to be applied to Legion in pretty much any way you like. Maybe David is the crane, and Dr. Birds unflagging effort to understand how his brain works will only lead to him fleeing the sanctuary of her care. Or maybe Dr. Birdfortuitously named, in this caseis the crane, whose efforts to cure David will ultimately be unsuccessful because he cant resist peeking behind the screen to see how she works. Or maybe its simpler than that. Maybe it doesnt matter what the words are. Bird just wants to hear her husbands voice. And maybe thats why Dr. Watch Redemption Road Vioz. Bird dumps out her coffee and asks to hear the story again just as soon as the machine finishes telling it. My favorite thing about Legion is the way it comfortably operates on so many levelsas a superheroic or possibly supervillainous origin story, as a sci fi mind binder, as a psychological drama about a disturbed young man, as an occasionally Lynchian phantasmagoria of surreal images and colors, ormy personal favoriteas an unusually intimate love story. Its on those last terms that this weeks Legion delivered a moment that took my breath away. David has spent much of the episode fretting that Syd wont love him after she actually takes a full tour of his sedated brainwithout any of his normal psychic defensesand sees how messy it is inside. Before we met. I lied to people and I stole. She discovers a little boyinnocent and confused and blissfully ignorant of all the horrors hes destined to face in the decades to come. Andable to touch him in this mental world, as she cant in the real oneshe kneels down and gives the boy a long hug. All episodes Expanded View List View Upcoming Episodes Recent Episodes.

The greatest of the DC Comics superheroes work together to uphold the good. She only lets go when Ptonomy insists they get moving. Here, again, is Legion using superpowers in a way Ive rarely seen them used before to explore the depths of intimacy between two people who love each other. Syd and David already know a fair amount about each others pasts. But thats different than seeing itwalking through it, and experiencing every trauma, and hopelessly wishing you could somehow reach back into the past and fix all the pain that still haunts your loved one in the present. Later onwhen things get bad, and everyone is forced to vacate Davids brain and return to the real worldPtonomy tries to comfort the shaken Dr. It cant hurt you. Memories hurt people all the time. And while she immerses herself in Davids brain, Syd does end up seeing a number of things she would probably rather not see David robbing his psychiatrists office with Lenny, David getting high and getting in a nasty fight with his then girlfriend, David having sex with another woman, andin a reminder of what genre Legion ultimately takes place inthat horrifying Devil With the Yellow Eyes. Even that nightmarish, psychedelic vision feels like an extension of Legions love story While David and Syd can see the Devil, no one else canbecause in a relationship with that level of intimacy, you have no choice but to deal with your loved ones deepest, most horrifying shit in a way that no one else ever could or will. And Syd, to her credit, hangs tough. For all the darkness Syd encounters in Davids mind, its only when David isnt self aware enough to care that he actually risks losing her. In a moment of anger over the kidnapping of his sister Amy, David says Amy is the only thing he cares aboutand the camera flashes, for just a moment, to Syd, looking genuinely wounded at the words David has angrily, thoughtlessly chosen. By the end of the episode, these rumbling emotional problems have necessarily taken a backseat to a literal one. Threatened by both the Devil and the Angriest Boy in the World, everyone has evacuated Davids brainexcept David, who cant wake up. Syd speculates that he might not be experiencing memories at all, and we get a brief flash of the whimpering David curled up in a ball, hiding from a crowd of people surrounding him and screaming at him. How can his friends get him out againand are these problems anyone can truly help him with If Legion is ultimately an.
