The music playing during the funeral was very powerful, especially when mixed with the rain, and everything being in black and white. You can tell that that was the moment that Gambi decided he was going to look out for Jefferson and then even more once Jefferson used his powers for the first time.

It feels like it’s been forever since we last saw Tobias. Now he’s being brought up to date with the ASA’s plans to try and make the people of Freeland docile, and now they want to use Tobias to track down Black Lightning because he’s seemingly the only one who has powers and survived, whereas the missing 30 kids are all slowly dying.

Opening the episode by switching back and forth between Jefferson and Anissa training, and the news coverage of people talking about Black Lightning was a really fantastic way to start. It gave use two lots of information: that the police are hunting for Black Lightning and that he’s started training Anissa, all at one time.
