I didn't think I would have notes, but I was wrong:
-Probably the most intense episode of the entire series. Season premieres (going back to OG Power) usually lack energy and are just there to set things up, but they went all out this time. I think Gianni Paolo said this episode would be like a movie and he was right. The energy was exactly what we needed coming off of the season three finale. It felt like an extended episode.
-Based on what you guys said, it looks like they won't be keeping this same energy for the next few episodes and they're going to go back to the status quo until they figure some things out. They still want the school as a backdrop even though none of them should be going there anymore. I guess OG Power still has that influence on the writing.
-Noma's super team is already falling apart in the season premiere. These idiots couldn't keep it together for one day. I wouldn't be surprised if they end up trying to kill each other at some point, like one of them took the last cookie or something, so now, they get bullets.
-Effie, stop being a snake and pick a side. Stop playing both ends against the middle. Take a firm stance and stay there. Or you can die. At this point, I would be okay with that. I thought Monet would be the first main character to die, but I was wrong. This time, I'm 100% sure they're just giving Effie random shyt to do until they kill her off halfway through the season.
-What happened to Dru? At some point in season three, he stopped being a pragmatist and now, he's an unhinged crackhead. On top of that, he's a fukking drooling idiot. A scumbari. If Effie doesn't die, he absolutely is. Or both, I don't care. I know one of them has to go because they're the most expendable.
-Tariq and Brayden are having fantasies of being normal kids? Yeah, you gave up that right when you killed your father with zero provocation, Tariq.
-I guess Monet might live to see the end of the series. They had a chance to kill her off and didn't take it, so she's going to continue being irritated with everything for the next nine episodes.
-I wish they didn't bring Junior back, because now that he's dead, we have to see Paz again. Why? Can she die, too? I don't know why the writers love her so much. She's never been entertaining at all. Her solo episode at the end of Book I was more than enough.
-To add to that, her beef with Ghost is spoiled. He's the reason your son was able to go to school and become a federal agent. He didn't even kill Angela, Tommy did. But that's never going to come up again. Please keep Paz scenes to a minimum, she's going to slow down this show's momentum at the worst possible time.
-Detective Carter, another federal agent that's going after the main characters. Congratulations, Detective Carter. You get to join a long list of federal agents that have been publicly humiliated and taken out for being morons. Tariq will show you that there are levels to this. You'll get thrown in circles, you'll get embarrassed all season, and end up in a casket just like the rest of them. It's not going to be the end of the world. It's just going to be the end of yours.
