Lanterns Episode 8 Dirt and Stars Synopsis
Episode Written by: Chris Mundy, Tom King and Damon Lindeloff
Episode Directed By: Alik Sakharov
In 2016, in the aftermath of the destruction of Rushville, Kerry Kane rushes to make sure Hal Jordan is safe in the debris of the motel. Ten years later, in 2026 Kerry is waiting for Hal as he is released from prison, and despite the town’s hostility, the two begin a relationship.
Hal gradually rebuilds his life and tries to make amends for the destruction he caused, but his fragile second chance is shattered when his home is firebombed. Noah, Kerry’s son, secretly saves Hal using his extraordinary abilities.
Meanwhile, back in the alien world, John Stewart discovers the truth about Noah from Sinestro, that Noah is a Manhunter, created through Zoe’s experiments and struggling against his own programming.
Sinestro reveals that Noah freed him from captivity and commissioned him to create a powerful Lantern fuelled by fear. John takes the Lantern but is warned that using it could have consequences.
When John confronts Noah, the teenager admits that he killed Hal, apparently to prevent him from revealing his secret to his mum, Kerry. Noah then reveals the terrifying conflict inside him: part of him wants a normal human life, while his Manhunter programming urges him towards power and destruction. Terrified of what he might become, Noah removes John’s ring and asks him to kill him after his final game as Quarterback for his team, the Pioneers.
At the football match, John watches the game with Kerry, where finally the real truth is revealed. Hal, after being saved by Noah, understood his true identity and urged Kerry to flee with her son. Terrified of losing Noah and believing Hal would expose him, Kerry shoots Hal in the head. John chooses not to turn Kerry in, believing Hal wo…

Lanterns Episode 7 The Jordan Boys' Legacy Synopsis
Episode Written by: Tom King and Damon Lindeloff
Episode Directed By: Alik Sakharov
In 1975, a young Hal Jordan is punished by his baseball coach for not being a team player. This sets up the habit of a lifetime as Hal won't give up the game ball to the kid chosen to replace him. His father, Martin, is proud of Hal and gives him a key to a "family fail-safe" shortly before he died in a plane crash.
In 2026, the Hal-o-gram refuses to cooperate with John Stewart to help solve the suspected murder of Hal Jordan and forces him to meet with Sheriff Kerry Kane to verify his claims.
Afterwards, the Hal-o-gram suspects foul play from Kerry and insists John check out Hal's storage without her.
Upon opening Hal's vault, they find a portal that leads to another planet, which John recognises as Antaan's home world.
They travel toward an island in the middle of a lake, but John experiences a hallucination created by remnants of a fear-inducing gas within the rain clouds. As visions of his father and his younger self accuse him of being afraid, John points a gun at his own head.
The Hal-o-gram saves John by pushing him into the water. He tells John the story about Hal Jordan's family fail-safe and that both his father and grandfather took their own lives. This is Hal's family legacy, leading John to suspect Hal may have killed himself.
Arriving at the island, John and the Hal-o-gram enter a structure at the centre and overpower Sinestro who tries to attack them to escape the planet.

Kerry Kane arrived in Rushville in 2007 chased by criminals from Gotham looking to kill her for father's crimes. Faced with an impossible situation, she is saved by Zoe who steps in to snap neck take a pinky and make a deal that some day Kerry will have to stand up and defend Zoe in a similar way.
Back in 2016, John Stewart is unable to get out of his rental car that Hal Jordan crashed into a pole. Zoe finds John but as the car explodes she lets him burn up inside. In hospital, Zoe uses her technology to repair John's burnt skin and makes a similar deal with him, as she did with Kerry, that in return for her help she will need his protection.
Meanwhile Hal meets with Antaan and his group. He tells them William Macon is the Manhunter they are searching for, while he goes after the real Manhunter, Zoe. Antaan's aliens destroy the Macon compound and Antaan faces off with Macon testing him with his alien language and their previous relationship to see if he is actually the Manhunter. Eventually, his resignation of being captured betrays Macon and Antaan removes his heart to confirm he's just a regular human and not his former partner Zoe. He manages to track her down and goes into self destruct mode but Hal uses his lantern ring to contain Antaan's explosive power killing him.
After recovering from his burns, John gets the drop on Hal at his hotel. The two fight until Hal is beaten and broken, but the motel is destroyed by the satellite lasers.

Episode Written by: Chris Mundy, Damon Lindelof and Tom King
Episode Directed By: James Hawes
In 1996, the young John Stewart and his brothers watch on as Earth's only ever Green Lantern reveals his identity to the world. He is Hal Jordan and he was chosen as the successor of Green Lantern Abin Sur after he crashed his ship and died. He just had to answer one question "Is he afraid?". When John's father arrives home he asks the same question of his son while shooting an apple off his head.
Twenty years later, in 2016, John Stewart is now supposedly being mentored by Hal Jordan to become the next Green Lantern. When John received a cryptic message from a holographic projection of a kinder, younger Hal from inside the Green Lantern ring, it sends the duo to Rushville, Nebraska.
With little support from Hal, John helps the town's Sheriff, Kerry Kane to capture a suspect involved in a mass shooting at their town's football stadium. But Sheriff Kane forbids Hal from joining the investigation, believing the case has no extraterrestrial connection.
Trying to get close to the suspect, Hal gets himself arrested for a bar fight, but the Sheriff keeps him separated in jail until he is bailed out by lawyer, and Kerry's husband, Billy Macon. In return, Hal agrees to meet Kerry's father-in-law William Macon Senior, who arranges for Hal to interrogate the suspect, Waylon Sanders.

He recruits a street kid, Victor Aguilar, to help dispose of Alberto's body. As he fights to climb the ladder of Gotham's underworld.
But Sofia Falcone, newly released Arkham resident and daughter of Carmine, thinks she's on to him.
Staying one step ahead Oz enacts an elaborate plan using Victor which will pin Alberto's murder on the Falcone family rival Sal Moroni and leave him in the clear to take his rightful place as the King of Gotham.

Pennyworth Season 3 Episode 10 “Highland Wedding” Synopsis
Episode Written by: Bruno Heller
Episode Directed By: Rob Bailey
Across London Merry Cow Dairies deliver milk laced with the hallucinogen Lullaby to the unsuspecting tea drinking population. Francis Fuchs is basking in the glow of his plan coming to fruition. But he realises that his loving followers have quickly become an angry mob as he is beaten to death.
Witnessing the murder and learning of the tainted milk, Dave Boy and Sally head to the Queen Anne's Revenge to warn all of the patrons of the impending danger.
Meanwhile Lucius gets an SOS out of Level Seven and Alfie and Martha break in to save them. But Lucius can't leave without saving Bet and the rest of the PWE's and locking General Thursday and his army in the bunker.
When Alfie sees the carnage caused by the infected Londoners he jumps in his car, grabs his reluctant girlfriend Sandra, heads to the Queen Anne's Revenge with everyone else to arm themselves, have a nice cold pint and wait for this to all blow over.
Without knowledge of the outside world, General Thursday calls PM Aziz for assistance. But the PM has been affected by Lullaby and believes Thursday is starting a coup.
While the two argue and their anger escalates, Alfie declares his love for Sandra and she agrees to marry him. As tensions get worse and worse between General Thursday and the PM, Alfie gets everyone from the Queen Anne's Revenge on a London Bus and picks up his mum and The Wayne's to take them out of the city.
With everyone gathered to witness Alfie and Sandra’s wedding their vows are interrupted as a bomb ordered by general Thursday is dropped on Number 10 Downing Street as the Prime Minister awakes from his hallucination.
