Chapter 1: Favour

Masterlist

“You sure you’ve got everything?” Jada asked, hurrying round the living room to pick up some last-minute items. “Make sure you give her a bottle with her tea. They’re in the fridge at the back, remember to warm it up first, won’t you?”

“I’m not a complete idiot, you know,” Jim responded with a laugh. “I do have a vague idea what I’m doing. I help my sister with her baby all the time.”

“You’ll phone me if anything happens, won’t you?”

He rolled his eyes teasingly. “Yes, Jada. Now if you don’t hurry up, you’re gonna be late.”

“All right, all right,” she sighed, crouching down to where Emily was playing on the floor. She scooped her daughter up into her arms, planting a kiss in her soft curls. “See you tomorrow, baby. I’ll miss you.”

Emily gave a little squeal, flashing her a cheeky grin as Jada put her back onto the floor and turned to address Jim again. “I’ll be back as soon as I can. Phone me if you need anything.”

“Stop worrying!” Jim laughed, stepping around Emily to push Jada towards the door. “You’re supposed to have fun. Everything here is under control.”

“See you tomorrow, Izzy!” Jada called up the stairs as they reached the hallway, hoping her other housemate could hear her.

Her fears proved unfounded, however, when Izzy's face appeared out of her bedroom doorway. “Have fun!” she called back, waving. “I expect some exciting stories when you return!”

Jada was unsure what kind of exciting adventures Izzy expected her to have at Ubi’s New Year’s party, but she nodded anyway, turning and heading out into the cold December evening. The last December evening, she realised with a nostalgic twinge as she climbed into her car. The last evening of 2015.

She reversed out of the driveway, pausing only to hit the start button on her Satnav before she set off. It had been five months since she’d last seen Ubi, when he’d moved out of his student accommodation in the summer and got himself a new place with a friend. The drive would take her forty-five minutes, her Satnav informed her, so she had planned to stay overnight and come home the next morning. However, it would be the longest time she’d spent away from Emily since bringing her home from the hospital eight months ago, and Jada only hoped she could last the night.

The house was not what Jada had been expecting for a third-year university student with no job. It looked as though it had been built in the Victorian era, with great bay windows and a small wooden porch, and was nestled on the edge of a country park. Despite having donned her best outfit—a red bodycon dress complete with heels she’d not seen for so long she’d had to clear the dust off them—she couldn’t help but feel massively underdressed for such an elegant setting.

She was soon reassured, however, by the sight of Ubi, who opened the front door wearing a fairly smart-casual shirt and skinny jeans as she was locking her car.

“Jesus Christ, Ubi,” she began as she made her way onto the porch. “Who’d you have to kill to end up in a place like this?”

Ubi grinned, taking her coat as she stepped inside. “Nothing to do with me. Morgo’s the one who deals with all the shady stuff. I just stand to the side and look innocent.”

“Innocent? You?” Jada laughed. “You’re not that good an actor.”

His smile widened. “Maybe that’s just what I want you to think.” He gestured for her to follow him into the living room, which was full of incredible antique-looking furniture to match the house’s grand exterior.

“Fucking hell, Ubi, is your friend loaded?” she gaped, but he only chuckled. “What the hell did you have to do for him to let you stay here?”

“Oh, you know, just the usual. Gotta help him reap the souls of the chosen, etcetera,” Ubi joked, causing Jada to smack him lightly on the arm. “You’re actually here early for once. Morgo’s gone out to get some extra drinks, so guess who gets to help me set up?”

“Aren’t I lucky?” she replied sarcastically.

Before long, other people had started to arrive, some of whom Jada recognised from her brief time at university, though most of them she had never seen before. The official start to the party was signalled by the music beginning to play, and soon drinks were being handed round as darkness began to fall.

It was around midnight when Jada stumbled into the kitchen, drink in hand, to find Ubi leaning against the counter and discussing something in a hushed voice with another man. The two of them looked up as she entered.

“Jada, come over here,” Ubi called, gesturing to her. “There’s someone I want you to meet.”

Jada did as she was told. “All right, but you better not be trying to set me up with anybody. I swear, I’ve had enough of that from Izzy.”

Ubi laughed, shaking his head, while the stranger gave a small smile of amusement.

“No, no, it’s nothing like that,” Ubi assured her. “I just wanted to introduce you to Morgo. Morgo, this is Jada Thorburn.”

He gestured between them, and the man named Morgo offered his hand.

“It’s a pleasure to finally meet you. Ubi has told me so much about you already.”

Jada snorted. “Nothing bad, I hope?”

Morgo had an unusual air about him. He regarded her with an unreadable expression, though she couldn’t help but feel slightly unsettled as his eyes appeared to almost look through her. They were partly obscured by his unruly hair, which fell in brown curls across them so that she was only able to see them when he wished her to. He seemed to belong perfectly in the surroundings of such an old and obscure house, but looked positively out of place amongst the people within the current setting. Even his clothes looked wrong; his too-large shirt and rolled up jeans looked as though they must have been borrowed off somebody else.

“You were in his drama class, yes? A budding actress?”

Jada nodded. “Had to drop out last year, though.”

“Oh really? May I ask why?”

“Had a baby,” she replied, shrugging. “She was premature, so it just seemed easier to quit and focus on her at the time.”

“A shame,” Morgo shook his head. “I imagine her father is looking after her now?”

“Nah, my mate is. We live together, so he helps me out when I need it.”

“Ah, I see.” Morgo nodded thoughtfully, and Jada began to wonder just how much information he was gleaning from her.

From the living room, one of the guests could be heard shouting above the music. “Ten minutes ‘til midnight!”

“I’m going back in there,” Ubi announced, swigging the last of his drink before picking up another. “Anybody coming?”

“Nah,” Jada responded, while Morgo just shook his head. “I’ll be in in a bit though.”

“All right, see you later, then,” Ubi bid them farewell, before heading back into the party.

Morgo took a sip of his drink, wrinkling his nose at the taste. “I have a favour to ask of you,” he said after regaining his composure.

Jada frowned. “What kind of favour?”

“I need you to trust me.”

Her frowned deepened, eyes narrowing in suspicion. “No offense, but that seems kind of a shifty thing to say.”

He chuckled, almost taking another sip from his can before he pulled it away from his lips hastily. “You’re staying here until tomorrow, correct?”

Jada was starting to wonder if that was such a good idea. “…Yeah?”

“Good, I will be able to explain more then.” He gave her a broad smile. “For now you should just enjoy the party, I suppose.”

Now it was Jada’s turn to drink, though she continued to frown at him over the top of the glass. “You’re a bit odd, you, aren’t you?”

Again, Morgo chuckled. “I imagine so. Ubi seems to believe so, at any rate.”

“You sure you can’t tell me whatever this ‘favour’ is now?”

He sighed, waving his hand vaguely. “It would take too long, too many people around.”

She nodded in neither agreement or approval, screwing her mouth up. “Right. Well, I’m gonna go back in there now. See you some other time.”

“Of course,” Morgo nodded, though there was a small smile playing on his lips. “Some other time.”

She made her way back into the living room, re-joining Ubi as the image of Big Ben on the laptop screen began to count down. Why neither Ubi nor Morgo had invested in a TV for the place she couldn’t understand, but that thought was soon pushed aside as the clock began to chime. Suddenly, the sky exploded in a burst of colour, the lights on the London Eye mimicking the fireworks in their own colourful sequence as 2016 burst onto the screen. Jada wished that one day she could see the show in person, perhaps when Emily was bigger and could appreciate it properly.

She’d had to watch last year’s countdown from her hospital room, keeping her headphones turned low so that it wouldn’t startle Emily. They’d been able to hear it even without the headphones, though, through the window, and Jada could still remember the flashes of colour dancing across the incubator where her one-day-old daughter lay. She’d been so sensitive to loud noises back then; she’d opened her little mouth to croak a protest, though there’d been no cry. She was too little to cry, the nurses had said.

Jada found herself crying now, watching the fireworks flash onscreen and reflecting on just how much her life had changed in the past year. When Ubi spotted her across the small crowd huddled round his laptop, his face grew concerned, at first. But after she’d explained her very legitimate reasons to him, he’d only shook his head with a smile and decided it was probably time she went to bed.

The rest of the guests were just beginning to disband as she settled into the spare room, all thoughts of the party already leaving her as she fell into unconsciousness.

When morning came, complete with a chorus of birdsong and sunlight filtering through the curtains and falling across her face, Jada wished it would piss off. She squinted at the traitorous gap in the fabric, before hauling the covers over her head with a groan. It had been so long since she last got the chance to go out, she’d almost forgotten hangovers existed.

Eventually, she’d managed to pluck up the courage to face the infernal sun, changing into her spare clothes before heading downstairs to see what the breakfast situation looked like in The Manor.

She wouldn’t have been surprised to find a professional cook slaving away in the kitchen, but instead she was greeted by Ubi’s ever-cheerful grin as he scrambled some eggs, while Morgo seemed thoroughly invested in the newspaper he held before him.

“Morning,” Ubi greeted her, prompting Morgo to look up and give her a nod. “How d’you like your eggs?”

She returned Morgo’s nod with a small smile, before replying. “Uh, scrambled, I guess.”

“You were right,” Ubi grinned, turning to Morgo and depositing the eggs onto his plate.

Morgo simply raised his eyebrows at his housemate, before returning his gaze to the paper. “Of course.”

Jada stretched, sitting opposite Morgo at their small wooden table and rubbing her forehead.

“Ubi, will you get the remedy I prepared from the cupboard above the sink, please?” Morgo requested, still not looking up.

Ubi did as he was asked, handing a small black vial to his friend, who in turn held it out for Jada.

“Take that. It’ll stop the pounding in your head.”

Jada thanked him, taking the vial and popping the cork out of it. Immediately she was hit with the smell, which she could only guess was the scent of some kind of offal. “Ugh, what is it?”

“Just a few herbs, really. I’d say it won’t taste as bad as it smells, but…” She thought he smirked, “Probably best to down it in one.”

She glanced to Ubi, who gave her a reassuring smile. After sighing in resignation, she tilted her head back, trying not to think about the horrific sludge that was passing over her tongue. She spluttered when she finished, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand.

“I hope those eggs are nearly done,” she croaked.

She’d earnt a smile from Morgo, while Ubi chuckled, turning back to his pan. “Just a minute.”

Morgo’s gaze remained on her, and after a moment he folded his paper up and set it down, intertwining his hands over it. “What time do you expect to be back home, then?”

“I told Jim I’d be back as soon as I could,” she replied. “Didn’t want to be away too long.”

“Of course. And are you planning to drive yourself?”

She nodded. “’Soon as I can.”

Morgo turned to glance at Ubi, who seemed to be watching them out of the corner of his eye. “Well I’m glad you gave no solid timeframe. That will make things much easier for us, I imagine.”

Jada frowned, her headache worsening. “You what?”

Morgo was back to leaning on the table again, his gaze becoming intense. “You’re adopted.”

Jada snorted at the absurdity of the comment. “You know, I’m really glad you felt the need to tell me that. I’d have had no idea otherwise,” she retorted sarcastically. She caught Ubi’s smirk, though Morgo seemed unamused, so she added, “D’you think I don’t know that?”

“Did you never wonder who your parents were?”

“No.”

The two seemed surprised at her answer.

“Why not?” Morgo asked.

She shrugged. “They didn’t want me; why should I waste a single thought on them? Life doesn’t really work like in the films, you know.”

Morgo’s expression softened. “Your mother did want you. She cared about you very much.”

She felt her eyebrows raise in challenge. “And you would know?”

His eyes dropped, his fingernail beginning to scratch at the paper underneath his hands. “I didn’t know her very well. Not at all, really. I only met her once, in passing. The day I saved your life.”

Jada scoffed again. “You what?”

Morgo’s eyes returned to her face, his words suddenly coming very fast. “Your mother was killed in a fire. She was staying in an inn in the capital, and you were with her. We were trying to keep an eye on things, to make sure everything was all right. When I saw the blaze I knew I had to go in, that I had to do something. It was too late for your mother, and I’m sorry for that, but then I found you. She’d doused your crib in water, it seemed, which gave me just enough time to get you out. Naturally, I couldn’t keep you here with us, though Ubi tried to argue with me. So we found a nice orphanage for you-”

“Orphanage?” she interrupted. “What is this, the Victorian era? It’s called an adoption centre.”

“My apologies-”

“And what am I, anyway? Fucking Harry Potter? My parents were killed, but you managed to save me in the nick of time? Yeah right, and the next one.”

Wearing a quizzical expression, Morgo turned to Ubi, who shrugged. “She doesn’t believe you, basically. I told you it would have been easier to keep her with us.”

“I can’t believe you’re buying into this shit, too,” Jada scowled. “Is this some sort of stupid joke?”

“No, no,” Morgo said. “I promise you I’m completely serious. I saved your life, gave you to the authorities in this world to be properly adopted, and then Ubi’s been keeping an eye on you recently, until now.”

“'In this world'?” she repeated. "What are you actually fucking talking about?"

Morgo sighed in exasperation, rubbing his brows. “You were born in Albion, which is in a separate world to this one. Now, if you’d just co-operate, we’d get through this much faster and then you can go on your merry way.”

Jada crossed her arms, still scowling, but said nothing.

“Very good. Now, since I saved your life, you could say you owe me a favour.” Jada wasn't sure she agreed, but Morgo was looking at her expectantly, seemingly waiting for her retort. When none came, he sighed again. “What do you know of the Arthurian legends?”

A moment passed, before he gave a sound of frustration. “You can talk now.”

“I did a few projects on them in high school,” she replied with a bitter shrug. “But I don’t see what this has to do with anything.”

“Well you wouldn’t, would you?” Morgo retorted.

Ubi snickered, causing the two of them to look back over towards him, still scrambling some more eggs.

Morgo turned back to her first. “How did they end, the legends?”

Jada sighed. “Arthur’s killed by Mordred, at the Battle of Camlann.”

“Not killed, mortally wounded,” Morgo corrected.

“Fine. Arthur is mortally wounded by Mordred at the Battle of Camlann. Because the distinction is so important.”

“It is,” Morgo countered. “‘Mortally wounded’ implies that Arthur was not yet dead when he was taken to Avalon.”

“So?”

“So, I need you to make sure he doesn’t die.”

What little patience of Jada’s remained now vanished. “And how the fuck am I supposed to do that?”

“You need to find a way to heal him. Luckily for you, I know just the right way. But you’ll have to use magic, of course.”

“Magic? You realise that all of this makes absolutely no sense, right?” She turned to Ubi for help. “Is he on something?”

“Nope,” Ubi replied. “Magic is real. You might not have realised, but you come from a long line of magic users, dating back for more than four hundred years.”

Jada changed her focus. “Are you on something?”

He grinned. “Nope. I’m surprised you haven’t noticed anything yet.”

“She’d have had no need to,” Morgo interjected, calling Jada’s attention back to him. “But now you do. I’m sending you to study under Merlin. You’ll learn the basics of magic there, but after that you’ll have to move on to a more difficult school of study.”

Jada laughed. “Oh yeah? And will I be going to Atlantis for dinner, as well?”

Morgo seemed unamused, so she changed her tone as she rose from the table. “Look, I don’t know what the hell you’re on about, but I am not going to Camelot to learn how to use magic to save a fictional king, all right? Sorry to disappoint, but I’m busy.”

She turned on her heel, ready to head out the door, pick up her keys, and never return to this house again. Behind her she heard Morgo rise, his chair scraping against the tiles.

“Morgo, we can’t make her,” Ubi said. “If she doesn’t want to, there’s nothing we can do.”

She was in the hallway now, about to retrieve her coat from the rack that Ubi had hung it on as the kitchen door behind her swung open again. She was grateful she’d thought to move her bag with the rest of her belongings by the door already. A smooth escape would have been so much more difficult otherwise.

She bent to pick it up, purposely paying no heed to the figure behind her as she did so, until he said something that she did not expect.

“Swefe nu.”

Before Jada could turn to even frown at him, she felt her legs buckle beneath her as the floor rushed to meet her. The last thing she heard before unconsciousness took her was Ubi’s voice of indignation:

“Morgo!”

The National Theatre revival is the first fully staged major London production of Follies to present the original Broadway version of the show. Sondheim and Goldman revised large parts of the show’s script and score for its 1987 London premiere, toning down the underlying bleakness of the Broadway original, and offering a more hopeful finale for its central characters. Director Dominic Cooke revisited early drafts of Goldman’s script, restoring original dialogue and moments that have not been seen in the production since its 1971 Broadway run.

Staged over a four-day shoot in a rented Union City, NJ theater, the production starred Tony Award®-winning actor Shuler Hensley (Oklahoma) as The Creature and featured Broadway veterans Ivan Rutherford (Les Miserables) as Victor Frankenstein and Rita Harvey (Phantom of the Opera) as Elizabeth. The production was a hybrid of a film and a live show. Shot cinematically out-of-sequence with multiple cameras and without an audience, the show was nonetheless filmed on a single stage with traditional theatrical lighting. The final product was published on DVD in 2002, but only screened privately for potential backers of future productions. - wikipedia Freaky Friday - First National Tour - May 2, 2017 (SunsetBlvd79's master) FORMAT: VOB (with smalls) (SD) CAST: Heidi Blickenstaff (Katherine Blake), Emma Hunton (Ellie Blake), David Jennings (Mike Harper), Chris Ramirez (Adam), Jake Heston Miller (Fletcher Blake), Jessie Hooker-Bailey (Savannah), Jeannette Bayardelle (Journalist/Ms. Meyers/Officer Sitz/Ensemble) NOTES: Excellent HD capture of the new musical on tour, based on the Disney film.

Deliver By Christmas (Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, 2020)

Are you sure? A couple of days ago you thought his sister-in-law was his wife....

Starring: Alvina August, Eion Bailey, Jim Thorburn, Nadeen Lightbody

Plot Synopsis: Molly meets Josh, a widower who recently moved to town with his young son. At the same time she is charmed by a mysterious client of her bakery whom she's never met in person, and doesn't realize that they're one and the same. (x)

In My Humble Opinion: Deliver by Christmas is incredibly skilled in how it takes the usually delightful trope of a two-person love triangle and makes it into an absolutely insufferable movie to sit through. Here are my four main problems in reverse order of how difficult it made this movie to watch:

1. The Military Propaganda

It was unexpected but Deliver By Christmas spends a lot of time boosting the military. It even ends with a child doing like a taped PSA about services we can provide our troops (because they love us and are working hard for us!). It was always there lurking at the fringes... the reminder that even though Hallmark is going hard for diversity (notice the interracial couple central to this film!) at its heart it’s a conservative station. It’s one of those sad truths you just bear when watching the channel, but it was harder to ignore than usual when watching this movie.

2. The Precocious Child

I don’t have any scientific numbers on this but in my heart, I know, that the percentage of original Hallmark movies that feature single dads and moms has dwindled by a fair amount. I would like to think they did this because they knew that 90% of the children in these movies are insufferable, though it probably was more of a mix of wanting to appeal to single women while not wanting to work with child labor laws as much. I’m getting sidetracked. The child character in this is insufferable. He is a level of precocious that’s just like 3 notches below The Book of Henry territory. This kid is like counseling his dad through his emotional issues, and when he’s not dong that he’s giving us direct talking points about certain military charity organizations. Every time this child was on screen, I was just waiting for him to be offscreen again.

3. The Lead Dude’s Hair

No.

4. The Female Lead Is a Fucking Idiot

I get that miscommunication is a normal part of these movies. Have to extend the plot! I get that miscommunication is part of what makes the two-person love triangle trope work! I do. I do.

Deliver by Christmas doesn’t work with miscommunication though. Instead it works in willful ignorance. The female lead gets the wrong idea so many times about the male lead and immediately goes into catastrophizing mode instead of like talking to the guy about it? And this doesn’t happen just once, it happens multiple times. It happens so often that the film hangs a lampshade on it. They know what they are doing! They know they are making the female lead stupid just to drag things out!

But self-awareness didn’t stop me from nearly rolling my eyes out of my head. Self-awareness in fact made it harder to take. Was there no other way to reach your eighty minute runtime instead of replaying the same plot contrivance over? Did you half to kneecap your heroine’s believability like that? Certainly we could have spent another ten minutes just talking about cool things the military does. It would have sucked, but it would have sucked less than these plot shenanigans.

At least the female lead got to look cute and wear cute outfits, while being stupid. A bright spot in this whole disappointing endeavor.

Watch If: You always make sure your Christmas tree has soft needles, if you are better at opening presents than wrapping them or if you think that “order a ribeye” is the best dating advice you can give.

Skip If: You don’t think it’s necessary to stay up all night baking just to have croissants in the morning, if you think a gingerbread house is fine without gumdrops or if you are not in need of a friend.

Mutant X [TV] (2001-2004)

S01E05 “Kilohertz”

[spoilers]

Sci-fi/action

Tom McCamus plays a main role in season 1

The episode opens with some strange goings on. A mysterious stranger appears on computer screens, saying he’s not going to put up with the way (presumably New Mutants) are being treated. Jesse and Shalimar are on their way back from a successful mission in the jet The Double Helix (appropriate name!) when it goes out of control. Brennan somehow resets the computer that controls The Double Helix with an electric bolt. And the race is on to find this dangerous New Mutant first.

Proxy Blue knows quite a lot about this guy, calling him Kilohertz. Mutant X want to find him before he outs New Mutants to the world.

After Thorne presumably ran away at the end of episode two (or was stasis-ed offscreen) Mason has had bad luck with second-in-commands. So this time it’s the turn of Renfield (Adam MacDonald) who is fresh from the GSA Academy. Mason is pretty angry about Kilohertz’s antics risking the exposure of New Mutants. And so the protagonist and the antagonist aren’t so different after all.

Back at Sanctuary, Jesse and Brennan are working on the computers trying to put together a picture of what Kilohertz looks like. Emma admits to having no computer knowledge at all (which is oddly paralleled in an interview with Lauren Lee Smith, the actress who plays her, when she admits to never having seen any sci-fi. Now I might be a huge nerd, but isn’t that strange?)

Renfield visits a local TV station and questions the guy in charge, who is suspicious and isn’t willing to answer any of his questions. This gives him a chance to show off his powers. He touches the man on the back of the neck and freezes him, allowing him to copy the files from his terribly retro looking computer onto a USB drive.

Jesse encourages Emma to have a go on the computer. He’s clearly learnt his lesson about excluding her since the last episode. It’s nice to see them bond a little more as teammates, and also we’re getting away from the potentially damaging stereotypes that girls are inferior to boys, or that people with mental gifts are worth less than people with physical ones.

As if by magic, Emma quickly comes up with a match. It’s a bit creepy how facial recognition data is held in the New Mutant database, especially when you wonder how they got that data in the first place. It’s certainly not his opinion now, but while he was working at Genomex I imagine Adam must have viewed New Mutants as subhuman and not deserving of the same rights and freedoms as regular humans.

Kilohertz is one Barry Sterling (Jim Thorburn), who works for a local TV station. Emma and Brennan go to track him down. (Incidentally I love how everyone is wearing red sunglasses in this episode. I had a pair just like Emma’s. Debunking the science and 00s nostalgia make watching Mutant X even better than the first time around.) Barry thinks they’re with Renfield, who he believes to be with the FCC. There is a mercifully brief slow motion chase scene - I don’t think they thought about how frustrating it is to see people run in slow motion. Kilohertz turns into electricity and escapes into a satellite dish.

Adam is working on some kinda weapon against Kilohertz that has the Apple transparent plastic of the future aesthetic. But with added extra lime green jello. Brennan thinks he has little control over his powers. As far as we know he hasn’t met any other electrical New Mutants but he might be speaking from personal experience. Adam has a lucky guess that someone from the GSA is pretending to be from the FCC. Maybe he’s just been doing this so long that he just always assumes it’s the GSA because it’s always the GSA.

Back at Genomex, Renfield walks into Mason’s office as he is applying his fake skin. He seems annoyed and tells Renfield to keep his distance. And well, that really wouldn’t be much help. He should really be doing this in a controlled, aseptic environment (which his office is not) or he would risk exposure to pathogens that would be deadly to a person with no immune system. And how on earth does he deal with airborne pathogens? Some kind of invisible filter? The real world implications of Mason’s medical condition are, in short, horrifying. All things considered it would have probably been more believable for him to go full Darth Vader, but then we wouldn’t have seen as much of Tom’s great acting, so I’m not complaining.

Renfield has little to report, and Mason reprimands him for blindly following the academy’s teachings of constantly reporting to superiors. We see Karen do exactly the same thing in the previous episode, but he is much gentler with her. Considering what happened to her, we can’t conclude that Mason was being gentlemanly, rather perhaps he was amused by her. Renfield clearly does not amuse him at all. We never actually see Mason report in to anyone and he seems to have unlimited power and influence, so one must wonder why he cannot fix the errant teaching at the academy.

Kilohertz makes another broadcast, calling New Mutants to rise up and take over. He delivers an inspiring speech to the weird and the different, one that strikes a chord with Renfield.

Proxy Blue makes a cryptic remark about Kilohertz and Adam deduces that he is about to hit the stock market. So he recruits Jesse to help him build a firewall around the financial databases. I’m not sure which is more worrying: the fact that Adam knows where they are, or the fact that they’re all in the same place. Maybe this is how Adam is so rich? But here is where the show was actually educational. The comment Jesse made about the stock market being 90% perception stuck with me. I recall having a conversation with some older colleagues who weren’t aware of this. If I’m surprisingly knowledgable about something, it’s pretty likely I learnt it from TV.

Shalimar asks Brennan if he has any doubts that Barry is Kilohertz. Surprisingly his answer isn’t “well duh I saw him turn into electric.” Two GSA SUVs pull up at the same time they do. Renfield tells his guys not to hurt Barry (very wasteful that they used two SUVs to transport 3 people. Maybe more backup might help?) Barry erases any doubt about his identity by turning into electric and jumping into a satellite dish in front of everybody.

Mason and Adam are both watching the financial news when Kilohertz comes back onscreen with a warning. Kilohertz is bypassing the firewall Adam and Jesse built and causing chaos, doubly so because he is causing shareholders to lose faith in the market and act accordingly. But apparently Jesse knows how to fix this.

Renfield comes clean to Barry about who he really is and tells him he’s impressed by what he has to say. But then Shalimar bungee jumps off the top of a building and grabs hold of Barry. Two questions: why? She’s a feral so surely doesn’t need such equipment. Also do they always take bungee cords with them everywhere just in case? (Don’t think they ever use it again.)

Despite being an incredibly dangerous criminal, Barry is brought back to Sanctuary. You’d have thought somebody would have asked if this was such a good idea.

Mason is busy watching an individual in stasis who looks distressed while being electric shocked when Renfield comes back to him. Somehow Mason knows about his sympathies towards Kilohertz, and tells him he needs more training, which looks like some kind of multi-sensory torture but may be a hyper realistic VR simulation more advanced than our current tech.

Meanwhile Barry more or less demands to become part of Mutant X. Adam thinks it’s safer for everyone for New Mutants to hide, but Barry doesn’t want to have to hide any more. There’s a validity to both points of view. What kind of life is it to hide what you are and always be afraid of being found out? But what if coming out into the public eye brings harassment, fear and danger?

There is a fight which ends with Adam injecting Barry with something that he says will knock him out for 12 hours. What kind of heavy anaesthetic does he have access to, and should we be worried that he has it so close at hand?

Adam uses a different method to look at DNA this time, using some kind of laser to scan a vial of blood. He says Barry’s DNA is in a state of flux between matter and energy. It’s possible to turn matter into energy, that is how atom bombs and nuclear reactors work. Recent experiments have proven that energy can become matter. So I’m giving this a big scientific thumbs up.

The Mutant X team have some Japanese food and discuss what to do with Barry. They come to the conclusion that a sub dermal governor is their only option. But Barry wakes up, turns to energy and escapes before they can stop him.

Barry returns to work to gloat to his boss. Adam follows him but he turns to energy and escapes again. Somehow they trick him into getting trapped in the weapon that Adam was designing. But it doesn’t hold him for long, he manages to turn into a virus/giant holographic head. He takes out their lights and oxygen. They lose him, but with Brennan’s help, Adam manages to get their systems back online and block him from coming back.

Renfield has just got permission from Mason to go back to work when Barry shows up. Renfield freezes him before he can escape.

Adam ends up regretting losing the chance to have Barry as an ally. He says he had some good ideas but got carried away with his own sense of power. I’m guessing he sees himself in Barry. After all, the same could be said for Adam and the New Mutant experiments.

Barry ends up in stasis. Which is arguably the best place for someone so dangerous. Adam is afraid the GSA will use him as a weapon. But Mason has more sense than that, and he also has much better containment systems for dangerous individuals. We don’t see Renfield again, but as Mason is actually for once happy with someone’s work by the end the episode, I think we can assume he got to keep his job and his consciousness.

I have to mention how much I love the lighting in this episode. It’s generally great in Mutant X anyway but I think the stills from this episode look especially good. The combination of everyone dressing in black/white/neutrals and having coloured lighting and sets give a great pop art effect.
