Titans – Season 4 Episode 1 “Lex Luthor” Recap & Review
Lex Luthor
The first episode of Titans Season 4 picks up with Dick Grayson and Kory discussing how fortunate they were to be able to get through season 3. The former feels liberated and it’s like a weight is lifted off her. It’s been a great time for them to save Gotham and now they’re facing the most challenging challenge of their lives. The goal of achieving a high score in bowling.
Bruce phoned, however, and has planned a trip to Metropolis in order that Conner will meet with his dad, Clark Kent. They’re headed to S.T.A.R. Labs however, Bruce promises to bring some “surprises” along the way. When he gets there, Lex Luthor begins to get into the shadows, with the intention of becoming even stronger than Superman and also squirming about in some pretty dark cultist ties.
The gang arrives in Metropolis and head to S.T.A.R. Labs and get to meet Bernard Fitzmartin, the guy who is in charge of the lab and overseeing everything. for Special Projects. They’ve been hoping to meet the Titans however, Conner and Dick have to stand in the back, while the others are escorted deeper into the laboratory. Bernard is disappointed – Superman is not there. He left a note apologizing and wants a meeting with Conner at some point in the future.
Bernard has used S.T.A.R. Labs to test Superman’s power and, when they put on AR glasses they can are able to see Superman traveling through space in real-time, advancing towards Q4 where he’s planning to attempt to save the galaxy from destruction.
While the remaining Titans assist as well, with Tim being given a few lessons as well as the gang’s transportation upgraded, with the brand new car from Bruce Wayne. But then, all the electrical systems go out of control. This is Lex Luthor. He’s interested in meeting Conner as well as the other employees at Lexcorp. Dick thinks Lex Luthor is dangerous and should not be trusted. He’s the only one Bruce Wayne was afraid of.
Naturally, Kory shows up alone and slays Lex’s guards, without sweating. When she comes face to face together with Lex Luthor, the latter discusses the power dynamic Kory experienced with her sister. They decide they’ve got a lot to talk about. He is willing to show her around and as they sit to discuss his ideas to discuss with Conner, Kory distracts him with a drone to get into the laptop in front of them.
Lex says to Kory that he would like Conner to remain to provide his advice and the power to take over Lexcorp. Kory is able to see through this deceit and believes that Lex is trying to subdue Conner and make him an individual weapon. Incredibly, Lex looks through his telescope and sees Dick Grayson and knows exactly what’s happening. “Remember Richard, this is me, being gentle,” Lex says as the whole process falls down. He’s aware Dick is watching from the distance.
Then, a number of ninjas arrive and begin to attack Dick Grayson. Tim is hesitant and searches for an opening for him to jump into and, eventually, he does it to help in defeating their enemies.
Although he’s not injured, Dick relays to Conner the exact details of the details of what Lex has provided and that’s six months of work with Conner. Dick insists that Conner not take this offer however Connor decides to join in seeking answers to his motives and determination to track down his parents, even when it’s a major risk or he is completely unsuccessful and he’s determined to continue doing this. “If you leave, it’s going to hurt us.” Dick declares. “I’m sorry. I’m obliged to take this step,” Conner replies.
At the moment that Conner comes to Lexcorp when he arrives at Lexcorp, he discovers that Luthor is suffering and may be dying. Luthor has tried to discover a cure, but so far, it’s not been successful. Luthor continues to warn Conner to be cautious in case Conner does make a mistake the public could consider him a different person. Lex says he’s the only person who doesn’t judge his character for what they are. Lex invented Superboy as a result of seeing his aspirations he would be Superman to come true. He had a son and was determined to help him succeed when he couldn’t achieve it, which was to be both a man and superman while flirting with both sides. Conner chooses his path and chooses to stay with Lex.
Once this issue is resolved, Lex Luthor brings up an idea that he’s been working towards and needs assistance with. The book that’s on the table is filled with a myriad of bizarre, old-fashioned markings and a well-known cultist mask that looks like a bird. Then, Lex Luthor begins bleeding from his mouth and vomiting everywhere on the floor. In his mouth comes a huge snake that tries to bite Conner. Conner makes use of his power to stop it from happening, and Rachel is afflicted by the pain and starts screaming.
In the aftermath of Lex Luthor’s death, armed guards are on the scene and immediately are quick to accuse Conner of committing foul action. As he puts his hands in surrender that he was guilty, down below Mrs. Bennett – that woman that Lex was fired from earlier in the incident – smiles and says that no one ever must pay.
the Episode Review
So Titans returns and this time there’s a more edgy vibe to it when we try to explore the supernatural. Sebastian, the character Sebastian is also an important character, but as for the fact that he doesn’t do much performance in this particular episode (hence his absence from the review!), we’ll need to discover what’s coming up in the near future.
The situation in Gotham is resolved for the moment The focus has been directed to Metropolis as the series seems to be growing in popularity and focusing on these bizarre rituals.
The format this year, which consists of two episodes in six parts could create two distinct story arcs similar to Heroes season 4 in the past however we’ll have to look forward to it. In the meantime, the Titans get off to an acceptable start.
