Black Lightning: The Book of Blood: Chapter Three: The Sange
November 27, 2018 8:33 PM - Season 2, Episode 7 - Subscribe
When Black Lightning and Thunder are attacked by Looker and her clan, they fight to get her to release control over the Sange. Meanwhile, Jennifer and Khalil grow closer.
The "end" to the Looker was sudden, but appreciated in that it ended the really uncomfortable prominence of a very racist villain. But it's pretty clear that she's not completely out of the picture, just with a little less of her magical, albeit slow-moving sentient (or at least living) mercury.

Wait, did I stop watching this show right before they introduced a vampire?

I think Khalil as a character is kind of boring without being a foil and partner for Jen, so this episode actually picked up for me when they were getting together. I do have to expect a fallout with her just leaving the family like that.
I'm both sad and glad Looker was dealt with quickly. I don't need more of a racist villain ('cause real life, haha amirite), but her powers was interesting and I would watch more of how that's used.
That bit with Anissa trying to explain theta waves to Jefferson and he was just not having it was hilarious.

Reuniting with Gambi was also sweet.
"I uh, think she needs a change." *runs* Oh, come on, didn't you change diapers back in the day, Jeff? I'm pretty sure Lynn would have made you.
