Legends of Tomorrow 1.12

Last Refuge

- the team's younger selves are stalked by the Pilgrim after they have been marked for death by the Time Masters
- the twist is that the Pilgrim is trying to kill them by killing their younger selves; which leads the team to save or steal their younger selves, which has repercussions beyond saving themselves from execution
- there are some great character moments in this one: (a) Heatwave first bullying and then trying to talk sense to his younger self, (b) Jackson meeting his father and trying to save him, despite knowing that he was killed just a few weeks after Jackson was born
- a really good episode; I had my doubts going in; I tried not to think too much about the how part of the show; it helped a lot that there was a good amount of focus given to characters, especially Jackson and Heatwave, interacting in moving ways
