Frenemies Chapter 7: Infinity Inc. Part 1 – Director: Glen Winter/Writer: James Dale Robinson

This one starts six months ago, with a familiar scene … Jenny getting kicked out of the orphanage and receiving her father’s Green Lantern ring (which we saw at the beginning of last season). At the same time, her twin brother Todd and his boyfriend Danny are in Civic City breaking into a fancy restaurant to celebrate Todd’s birthday.

Frenemies Chapter 6: the Betrayal – Director: Lea Thompson/Writers: Alfredo Septien, Turi Meyer

This one starts with Cindy removing incriminating stuff from the old Injustice Society headquarters. (She knows someone’s been there because Sylvester destroyed the portrait of the Society when he had his freak-out last episode.) We see that Cindy is getting more like her father, with not only her arm growing scales but her eyes flicking back and forth between normal and reptilian. Continue reading “Stargirl Reviews: Season 3, Episode 6”

Frenemies Chapter 5: The Thief – Director: Lea Thompson/Writer: Steve Harper

This one starts five days ago at the scene of Gambler’s murder, where Cindy is standing beside his body, retracting her forearm blade. She notices Gambler’s laptop and grabs it, but has to hide it when she hears the JSA coming. She sees the Derringer beside Gambler’s body and picks it up, then fires it … but it looks like her arm had some kind of spasm and she fired the gun without meaning to.

Frenemies Chapter 4: The Evidence – Director: Walter Carlos Garcia/Writer: Paula Sevenbergen

This one starts with Cameron looking at some knicknacks at home, where he accidentally freezes and shatters a snow globe with his cold powers. His grandparents aren’t worried about his lack of control, as long as he masters his power in time to make their enemies suffer. Continue reading “Stargirl Reviews: Season 3, Episode 4”

Frenemies Chapter 3: The Blackmail – Director: Walter Carlos Garcia/Writer: Taylor Streitz

This one starts with Sylvester strolling downtown and getting freaked out by how open and friendly everyone is. He stops by the diner and talks with Yolanda, telling her Ted Grant would’ve liked her as the new Wildcat (and validating her mistrust of Cindy). Neither of them notices Cameron’s grandparents giving Sylvester an icy stare through the window. Continue reading “Stargirl Reviews: Season 3, Episode 3”

Frenemies Chapter 2: The Suspects – Director: Andi Armaganian/Writer: Robbie Hyne

This one starts twelve hours before the end of last episode, which I guess means that everything we saw there took place within those twelve hours. Gambler arrives at his rented trailer and settles in, beginning his search for his daughter, Becky. We see Crusher outside thinking about pounding Gambler, but changing his mind and taking off. We also find out that the mysterious figure watching Gambler last episode was Shade. Continue reading “Stargirl Reviews: Season 3, Episode 2”

Frenemies Chapter 1: The Murder

This one starts with a creepy voice-over by the Gambler about a tale of mystery and murder, then immediately pivots to an upbeat montage of life in Blue Valley. Continue reading “Stargirl Reviews: Season 3, Episode 1”

Summer School Part 13 – Director: Gregory Beeman/Writer: Geoff Johns

This one continues directly from last episode, with Beth and Dr. McNider running into Eclipso at the American Dream offices. Eclipso gloats about using Courtney’s inner darkness to feed him and help him merge the Shadowlands with Earth’s dimension so he can take over everything. Continue reading “Stargirl Reviews: Season 2, Episode 13”

Summer School Part 12 – Director: Greg Beeman/Writer: James Dale Robinson

This one starts in Courtney’s empty house … well, it’s not quite empty, as the dog has the run of the place and is taking advantage of that, hewing everything in sight. When Courtney and her family return (with Cindy and Dr. Mid-Nite) they find the dog cavorting with the Staff, which seems to be feeling better. Continue reading “Stargirl Reviews: Season 2, Episode 12”

Summer School Part 11 – Director: Sheelin Choksey/Writers: Paula Sevenbergen, Robbie Hyne

This one starts with Pat returning home with Jenny and the Staff but no Courtney. Naturally, her family is pretty freaked out by her vanishing into the void last episode. Continue reading “Stargirl Reviews: Season 2, Episode 11”
