Episode 14:
Spartacus. Rebellion and questioned are bad words in the Historical Sanitation Department. Mona says this is hard. Her coworker wonders if it's wrong. She says the Fates give us what we need. How can it be wrong? Jeffery Birch has his thread cut by Atropos. He dies there. Mona takes his plant home. The Fates are always watching. Relinquish free will. Gary insists the world is wrong. Mona tells the weirdo to stay away.
Mona's room. Another night, another bowl of mush.
Zari and Behrad in a sitcom like Friends. He forgot the gray mush. Ultimate Buds are fated to have some fun. Zari's boss will be there in 30 minutes. The knock on the door is Nate. He's playing Robin Hood in Arrow. He shoots the gray mush. Behrad leaves to clean up. Zari doesn't like Nate. the heirloom is glowing. He touches it and Zari 1.0 appears. Goes into Zari 2.0. She hugs him. Then hears the audience. He of course can't remember her. She spots herself in a mirror. Takes off the heels. Puts on a flannel. Asks him about the others, including Mona Woo. Behrad comes out of the bathroom and she tears up. Knock on the door. It's Zari's boss on the show. Where is she? The totem goes to the door and Zari breaks out. We're stuck in a TV sitcom. You guys don't hear the laughing? I think you guys fought the Fates, you lost, and were Loomed here. What's behind this door? She opens it and it's TV static. Touches it and there's a new set. Coming, dummies? Nate and Behrad follow her into Downton Abbey. John says we've been expecting you. Welcome to Highcastle Abbey.
John Constantine is the butler. Mona watches the new show. John says the second footmen will see to your carriage. He has Persian treats for them and he offers tea. But the boys don't recognize John. Outside is the English countryside. She says play along until I get John to snap out of it.
Lord Behrad is a potential match. Natalie and Astra come to meet them. John asks if it's custom for the valet to sit. Nate stands. Natalie asks John to show Nate elsewhere. Astra is not eager for this marriage. Zari excuses herself. Natalie asks Behrad if he likes hunting. He likes to play among the animals, not kill them. Astra likes the answer.
Zari asks to talk to John alone. The servants clear out of the kitchen. She tries to convince him of his identity. John does magic to tie up Nate's hands.
Astra wants adventure, not marriage. Behrad says you're a diva. Female version of a hustler.
John is at war with himself over magic. He'll be fired by Lady Natalie. Zari says help us escape with a spell and we'll keep quiet.
Mona goes to Gary and turns on the TV to show him the world is wrong and he's right.
Zari asks John to find Captain Sarah Lance. She says we need you to come with us. Astra comes in and says she's moving to London. The card burns. Everyone link up. They're all touching when the spell activates.
Captain Lance of original series Star Trek. Gromulan Warship. They can't understand what the Gromulans are saying. Sara asks Ava if we can kill them now. Ava is sort of Vulcan.
**Why does Ava have a white wig and eyebrows halfway up her forehead? The Vulcan brow just has the tail go upward instead of down next to the eye.
Space, the fatal frontier. These are the adventures of the USS Faterider. Star Trip. Sarah wants them blown up. Ava orders translation. Zari appeals to them. But Nate and Behrad are dumb. The cannon worked and shot their ship. Extras are down. Ava says the crew has perished. They're androids. Sarah gets up and says the battle isn't over, yet.
Mona and Gary go to the production studio and says they're there to refill the mush.
Sara orders firing. But weapons don't work. Zari offers to rescue them. Beams them over. John offers them tea. Ava wonders if they're in a prison dimension.
Clotho's control room. Writing the script automatically. Gary spots Ultimate Buds swag.
Planet Cul-de-sac is transmitting. Zari wants to make contact. Ava, Sarah, John, and Astra say don't. The boys agree with contact. Then they're ALL screaming after Nate pushes a button.
Mister Parker's Cul De Sac. The Fates have sent us some visitors. It's the community helpers. It's story time. Sarah kicks him out of the house. They ask Zari what's the plan? She has no idea. Remember who you really are and you could help me figure this out. You're the Legends! You guys were heroes. What makes us special is we're a bunch of misfits that were trying to make a difference.
Mona is inspired. She types into the show. The Legends remember who they truly are.
John first. Behrad dying. Sarah talking to Ava. Ava fighting before she died. Nate hugging Zari and getting Behrad. Sarah hugs Ava. I remember everything. I remember both Zaris. Behrad now knows he should be dead in every timeline. Ava thinks Charlie hiding them on TV was the way to save them from the Fates. Astra asks if the Loom brought her mother back. Nate kisses Zari. He's never letting her go again.
Clotho - Charlie comes in and deals with Mona and Gary's changes. I can't let the Legends escape.
**Would you like both Zaris to exist?
Behrad processing. But where's my Zari? She says I'm possessing her body. Mister Parker comes back in. Offers to help.
Mona asks Clotho why she's doing this?
Mister Parker knows all about sad feelings. He sings. Nate is charmed. Mister Parker encourages them to repress. Then sends Sarah and Ava back to Star Trip. You all have to go back home now. Behrad sings the feelings song. Then Zari. Ignore those pesky feelings. Nate dives and he tackles sitcom Zari's boss.
John flames up his hands. Astra says we need to go back. I want to see my mother. John says Natalie is just a character on a TV show. She sings the repression song. John joins in. They holds hands. Ignore, ignore. Those pesky feelings are a chore. Obey the Fates and you'll be happy just like two ladybugs.
It's Christmas in the manor. Astra asks Natalie if she remembers anything before Highcastle Abbey. Natalie knows nothing of it. Astra tells her she loves her and hugs her. Come upstairs and change for dinner. Astra knows she's not real. But John says we can stay. It's no trick, love. Astra, look at me. What do I have to show for myself? 38 years of crap and broken promises. My original sin was you. If you're happy here, I'll spend an eternity trying to make it up to you and Natalie. She asks if he's capable of such a selfless act. He assumes the butler role. She smiles and is relieved.
**Understandable, John, but very sad. They're still being selfish compared to the fate of the world. In Fate World, there's nothing good. The Loom should've stayed gone.
Charlie Clotho says the algorithm will take care of the rest. Mona asks why real people are trapped on TV? Charlie made a deal to keep the Legends living. Mona says no one has a choice here, but you get used to obeying.
Sarah wants to get back to the real world. Ava saw her die and she keeps replaying it in her head. In here, we always win. Sarah says that's why Charlie did all this. But it doesn't exist. Life is beautiful and terrible all at the same time. If we're only living part of it, we're not living at all. They get a transmission from Mick. Don is charging his torpedoes. Sarah thinks they have to lose to get free. Don fires. Torpedoes incoming.
Mona says you have to save them. Stop algorithm?
Sarah and Ava kiss. Ship goes up in flames. Show off the air. Star Trip canceled.
Mick loved Star Trip. Where are the others?
Natalie offers one present to Astra. A ticket to London. Don't sacrifice your happiness for my own. I'll always be here but you have your whole life ahead of you. Be courageous and live it well. Natalie leaves the room. Astra asks John if she has to say it. You smug bastard. We can't stay here. Do it fast before I change my mind. John spells them out.
They join the others.
Zari appeals to the audience to take control of their lives.
Charlie yells at the Legends but they refuse to accept their fates. Even after splitting the Zaris into two people. Charlie begs. Don't walk out that door. But the Legends will do what they do. Mona happy they're free. Charlie says I can't help them anymore.
Next ep - season finale. Let's go save the world.
