This week’s Legends of Tomorrow was an emotional one! First of all, poor Ray Palmer (Brandon Routh) just cannot win with Kendra Saunders (Ciara Renee). They had a life together, in 1960, he was a professor, she was in love with him and he was actually planning to propose to her and then — Rip Hunter (Arthur Darvill) reappeared in their lives.
Isn’t that just like Time Lords Masters.
Sara Lance went back to the League of Assassins where Ra’s Al Ghul was still the ruler. And while all of this was going on, Leonard Snart discovered that Chronos was his old friend Rory, who he knocked unconscious and left stranded in the past after he tried to betray the team. Rory is mad and wants revenge on his old teammates, so when the Time Masters picked him up and trained him to be a time bounty hunter, he was more than willing to hunt them down.
So there’s some very dysfunctional relationships on this show right now.
Which is where we find ourselves when they travel to the future to assassinate an evil dictator. Well, a child that grows up to become a dictator. Which begs the question — would you kill a child even if you knew they were going to grow into something that evil?
Rip (Arthur Darvill) tells the team they are headed to the future to take out a powerful ally that Savage (guest star Casper Crump) needs in order to conquer the world. However, when Rip reveals the ally is a 14 year-old boy (guest star Cory Gruter-Andrew) who will one day grow into an evil dictator, the team is split about the morality of killing a child, even if it does save the world. Meanwhile, Sara (Caity Lotz) talks Snart (Wentworth Miller) through a rough patch and Ray (Brandon Routh) learns something that could impact his future with Kendra (Ciara Renée).
