Multiple story lines come to a head, and one to a resolution, in last week’s episode of Walker. With three more to go, there’s a sense of urgency and foreboding about the Jackal case that is really adding to the tension – and I am here for it!
I’m also here for the dark turn this show is taking, with all the cast really stepping up to pull it off. So, this week…
Cassie and David and… Ed?
Cassie and Luna are the lightness to balance out all that dark. We get some more shirtless Luna with Cassie, and some nice banter. He wants her to meet his best friend Ed, saying she’ll like him, they both love to talk.
Spoiler alert: She does not like him.
Extra spoiler alert: Neither does anyone else. Except Luna, for some reason I can’t fathom yet at all.
The three meet up at the Side Step, Ed taking issue with how much Austin has changed and with the trendy drink Cassie orders (a Boulevardier, which many Supernatural fans immediately associated with Steve Carlson, a musician friend of Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles – that’s a line in a song of his.) Anyway, Ed and Cassie don’t exactly hit it off. He criticizes the SideStep too. Cassie defends it, saying they’re about to open another, in fact.
Ed: Where, at the airport?
He is NOT happy to hear that Luna is moving to Austin. Like not at all. Luna blurts out he’s moving “because I love her” and Cassie overhears.
He tells Cassie that Ed had a pretty rough relationship with his mom and can get defensive; that they were there for each other and he’s afraid to lose that.
He also admits that what she overheard is true.
Luna: I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner, but there’s no denying it. I love you.
Twisted Family History
We pick up Stella’s story with her taking off to find the necklace, while Liam confronts Augie about where she’s gone, pissed as hell that she kept lying to him about being okay and desperate to know where she might have gone. August, unfortunately, doesn’t really know. Bonham and Mawline hear all the yelling and August comes clean about the necklace and Joanna Rawlins’ threats.
Anybody who saw Mawline’s face when Joanna’s name was mentioned knew something interesting was about to happen.
Geri calls Cordell to tell him about his daughter being in danger, Liam warning he’s “not in the best headspace”. Geri wants him to come home and help, but he says he’ll go check out a gazebo where she’s hid out before instead.
