Meanwhile, another pair of new lovers are about to swing the other way. Even if they’ll never live that dream version of the lives they could have had, Luther and Allison are willing to take what they can get, walking off hand-in-hand to enjoy their last few days before the apocalypse. But the fantasy dance still has some echoes in the modern world. This leads to a long-delayed, GIF-friendly dance sequence, which morphs into a full-on idealized fantasy sequence about the normal life Luther and Allison could have led together: Luther in a human body, and Allison more carefree than we’ve ever seen her.
I still think this is weird - adopted siblings are still siblings! - but Umbrella Academy is determined to move forward with this romance, so here we are. (This requires the help of Diego, whom ties Klaus to a chair to keep him honest.)Īnd love must be in the air, because with the doomsday clock ticking, Luther and Allison finally drop the pretense and do the Seeking a Friend for the End of the World thing, kissing for what’s apparently the first time. With the end of the world three days away - and everyone in the Umbrella Academy agreeing, following a family meeting, that they can’t actually stop it - Klaus decides to sober up long enough that his superpowers come back, so he can see his dead lover Dave one last time. She discovers too late that it’s a trap set by Hazel, who knocks her out.Īntics! But in the midst of all the chaos, Klaus’s story line is a bit more poignant. Cha-Cha finally shoots through the shower curtain at the motel while the shower is running, believing Hazel is behind it. Hazel pretends he’s going to pick up Chinese, but sneaks away to flirt with Agnes at the doughnut shop. Cha-Cha takes Hazel out into the woods to kill him Miller’s Crossing–style, but can’t bring herself to do it. Hazel and Cha-Cha have never been my favorite Umbrella Academycharacters, but it’s fun to watch this little game of spy versus spy. Still, Five is capable and ruthless enough to sow a little chaos by sending Hazel and Cha-Cha secret notes, ostensibly from the Commission, ordering them to kill each other.
He’s using the opportunity to gather intel on the apocalypse, but he can’t get away from the Handler, who is so enamored of her new hire that she won’t give him a moment’s peace - even when he sneaks off to the bathroom with a classified file.
