I think if DC were smart, they’d bring the Legends into the mainstream DCU. I’ve been sort of idly piecing together the headcanon that could make it possible. It could all revolve around Dinah Lance realizing that at one point she had a sister that she had been forced to forget, who of course would end up being Sara,…

I know there’s the whole “preserve the timeline” thing to grapple with, buuuuuuut once they changed history anyway (by scaring off the oil tycoons and saving Spooner’s mom), wouldn’t it have made sense for somebody to chase after Astra and little Esperanza to tell her she didn’t have to go into the mushroom? I know…

So that’s two more DC characters down from DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, killed in the same episode no less!

-Aww, baby Spoons!

It’s probably because the cast has ballooned and most of the focus has been on everyone except him (and Nick). Since Mick actually got focus thanks to his relationship with Kayla and his pregnancy, Behrad has taken Mick’s role.

The way i saw it the shrooms (the alien protector ones) existed earlier in the past, pre invasions. Me thinks there will be some pre destination paradox where they're inert

But I loved how Astra convinced Spooner to preserve her personal timeline so Astra didn’t lose her friend & Spooner trusted Astra with her adorable young self.

I am guessing the mushrooms were a Post-Crisis thing since I sure as hell didn’t see any of them during Invasion.

I consider that Spoons did at least bend the timeline in this episode & certainly tried to break it for personal reasons (by giving John her blood), which as Charlie once told Zari is practically a requirement for becoming a team member

Spoons has yet to break the timeline, I was hoping her meeting her mom would somehow do it, lol, which is truly a rite of passage to become a proper Legend.

I'm probably wrong about this, but I have a feeling Constantine's death won't stick.  I know they're done with the character on the show, but going out in the penultimate episode of the season seems a little weak for Johnny.

The Spooner backstory was shocking but effective & consistent with how the show has frequently had team members run into relatives or early versions of themselves when time traveling, which as Spooner’s mom suggests seems to be somehow meant to be.

Behrad looks to be in that picture from the season finale that is posted upthread.

I am guessing the mushrooms were a Post-Crisis thing since I sure as hell didn’t see any of them during Invasion.

I expect it to be resolved by the end of the next episode. You have to maintain continuity to allow Spooner to reappear in the future and maintain the time loop, otherwise she disappears and the entire season will be undone. The Fountain will be restored in some sense...perhaps final good deed in death by John.

I’m guessing they’re the last line of defense. No kryptonian level heroes in 1920s meant they were the only line of defense back then. Also (s/) crisis...i don’t got to explain s/=t (s/)

Also props to Masie Sellers on her great directing debut.

R.i.p constantine. Making comebacks from NBC cancellations cool since 2016

Also, they may have to handwave why the Dominators and possibly Eradiator weren’t covered by mushroom magic.

I have to imagine that the destruction of the Fountain/Mushroom that was protecting the earth from Aliens will play into The Flash’s “Armageddon” season opener, yes?
