To qualify as a Shannara Chronicles Captive of the Week, you must be subject to physical restraint of some sort: rope, shackles, etc. "Mental" captivity does not qualify, as this show does not have a brain.

The further irony of the lawsuit was that it was actually Thicke/Pharrell/etc who sued the Gaye estate first, asking for a declaratory judgment that they did NOT rip off the song. The estate, naturally, counterclaimed, and prevailed.

This week's Captive of the Week in The Shannara Chronicles: Ander! Congratulations, Ander. Like all other previous Captives of the Week, he was easily freed before the end of the episode, and is eligible to be re-captured and compete for next week's Captive of the Week honors.

It's not an episode of Shannara Chronicles unless at least one (and preferably several) characters are captured.

This episode was an entertaining hot mess.

Tune in next week to find out whose turn it is to get captured in…The Shannara Chronicles

Cynical, sarcastic, give-no-fucks Mulder is really the best.

This show's plot utterly depends on the "heroes" being as dumb as possible at all times. They get captured at least once an episode; they always choose the dumbest of two options placed in front of them; and they never, ever expect deception. The fate of the world has been entrusted to a bunch of mental six-year-olds.

Man when these kids get older and go to do some drunk karaoke are they going to be surprised
