I’m still not seeing this Kanan turning into OG kanan…and I’m not seeing how this kanan kills Juke in the future
i don't think anybody is. The Kanan character is the worse written chracter on the show and the actor makes the bad material that much worse.

They never really explained how Kenya found out Juke was gay, even in the previous ep she was smiling when she saw her talking to dude outside church.

Sometimes things are explained thru nuance rather than some all-revealing moment...

TBH, especially back then, perception was reality. If someone was perceived a certain way- whether thru mannerisms, style of dress, etc... then that's what they got called. Everybody remembers that one kid in school that you kinda already figured was PROLLY gay. There's even parents who say straight up, they knew their kids were gay before THEY knew it. Juke's moms didn't need to find shyt out or be told. She was tryin' to get her to look more ladylike, that dude tryin to talk to Juke was probably put on to her by moms to see if she liked boys, them dudes Juke knew actin all surprised to see her lookin' like a girl when they were out together... so 1) she doesn't act/look "feminine", 2) she was kinda standoffish to the dude who took her out and tried to kiss her, 3) she hangs out with dudes... add that to a judgy born-again Christian :manny: That's the nuance.

Yep, I thought about it after and remembered the subtle hints they gave in the past few episodes. Still was surprised at the quick bring her to church conversion tho.

Marvin going to see shorty was stupid to me. You know you have money on your head, why the fukk would you put her in danger like that. Is like son, c’mon b.
True, but he was riding high from reconciling (to a certain extent) with his daughter, and needed to express it to someone. This is the best feeling Marvin has had in long time.

"It was enough for me that you called me Dad"

True words spoken. Men provide and protect...and don't expect much in return.

The Power universe has the worst hitmen in the history of television. Chris and Snoop are like Deadpool and Taskmaster compared to them nikkas.

All that grinding them nikkas be doing, I would think Lou would have 50 bands stashed somewhere.

I hope they don't kill off Marvin, he's been the best character of the series.
:dead::dead: breh your comic book and boxing references are always spot on
