You can skip this episode. No, really. There's nothing here. It's not terribly interesting visually. Curare brings absolutely nothing as a character to the story. Bruce is out of town. Terry doesn't develop in any meaningful ways. The closest we get to an emotional beat is Max being pretty freaked out after an encounter. This…

With one episode of Doom Patrol left, I'm realizing that Rita's role in the story is essentially done. This episode is all about the heroes trying to get their longevity back, and it goes as well as you'd expect. Rita is comatose while the series is ending, and it feels pretty weird. Spoilers follow for Doom Patrol…
