Black Lightning (TV Series) The Book of Occupation: Chapter Two: Maryam's Tasbih (2019) User Reviews

Poorly Executed Episode

[Micubano · 1/10 · 17 October 2019]

So many things wrong with this episode. Blackbirds irrational behavior against the people who are helping her. Was that guy supposed to be deaf, because he was reading lips through a mask. Telling a girl her powers kill her when she uses them, but then making her use them. With the exception of Jen and Gambi's characters, no one was acting like their characters normally would. I don't care if there is an occupation and they've been subjected to a month of brainwashing in the previous episode, this plot line is awful. The only time a character should change this much is through time travel. I hope they kill this arc quick and forget about battling foreign powers for a while. This show was not ready for that and the jump was huge and poorly explained. And PainKiller? really? We all know how that is going to end. The same way every brainwashing chip in the head plot ends.
