There always seems to be something about the second episode of each season for Legends that just delivers a very lackluster episode. Sure, there were some good jokes here and there, and I liked getting more from Spooner and seeing the Zari/Behrad relationship explored a bit more, but there wasn't much substance to this episode. But there was a substance.
The story didn't move forward much. Sara crash landed on the planet they were originally taking her to, her and Gary had a strange interaction with a... local? (This has some explaining to do!) And the A-story with the rest of the Legends only gave us a dead alien and no momentum with the storyline. We didn't learn anything new.
50's aesthetic was fun and I loved the Big Belly origin story here, but kind of a stagnant episode that didn't carry the same momentum as the premiere.
Still interested to see where Sara's story is going, but man, I wish Gary wasn't her companion. I wish she would meet up with other aliens/displaced people and get her own story without having to share it with Gary, though I guess he makes a good sounding board for learning about other aliens and planets.
