TITANS “Atonement” Review

Season 2 Episode 9 “In the aftermath of Dick’s confession, the Titans’ world is rocked to the core – and Dick’s fear that his secret would break up the Titans comes true. Abandoning Titans Tower, the heroes all go their separate ways. Hank and Dawn return to Wyoming, Jason and Rose leave together, and Donna agrees to take Rachel with her. Kory, meanwhile, is surprised to hear from Faddei (guest star ROBBIE JONES), who’s returned with bad news from her home planet. Leaving Gar alone to tend to the still wounded Conner, Dick departs as well, in search of absolution for Jericho’s death.”

What I Liked?

1. Dick finally telling the OG Titans and new Titans about Jericho, the fight in the church with Slade, Jericho dying to save Dick but the Titans can’t believe he kept that a secret and all decide to leave with Hank punching Dick then leaving with Dawn, Jason and Rose leaving together, Rachel and donna leaving together while the only person who stays is Gar.

2. Faddei tells Kory about her ship being blown up by Blackfire’s people, he tells her that she’s sent people to kill them both and that Blackfire has took Kory’s crown.

3. I really liked this next point and it’s coming from Rachel. She’s the only person to actually say that the OG Titans were apart of the Jericho situation, that they all decided to use him and keep it a secret. Finally someone puts the blame on others instead of just Dick.

4. Gar is left in the tower to look after Conner while he’s still healing. Conner wakes up so Gar explains to him about the tower, the groups abilities and that they all save people because they are heroes. The bromance between Gar and Conner is going to be so great and hilarious to see.

5. Dick goes to Jericho’s mother to apologize and speak to her about Jericho, she tells Dick that she can’t forgive him and tells him to go speak to Slade who is in the next room. Slade tells Dick that if he’s near the Titans and if they reform that he’ll come back and kill every single one of them.

What I Disliked?

1. Everyone leaving Dick because of the Jericho situation, everyone putting the blame onto him when Donna, Hank and Dawn were all apart of using Jericho.

2. For me personally seeing Kory and her royal guard, Faddei traveling to his ship was king of boring and it dragged so much.

3. Hank deciding to end things with Dawn because he wants to see what the world is like without Hank and Dawn.

4. Dick is in the airport getting a flight to Greenland when he drops his ticket and attacks two police officers for no reason… I got so confused by this.

Favorite Moment?

1. Dick also leaves the tower, he tells Gar he’ll be back, if there is any trouble to give Bruce a call and he’ll contact Superman. This is just one step closer to Dick becoming Nightwing and I can not wait for it.

2. Gar is telling Conner about them saving people when Conner see’s someone getting arrested so he tries to help but ends up attacking the police and killing some of them while Gar runs and hides.

The Verdict?

The Episode dealt with the fallout of Dick admitting his mistake with Jericho, The episode also showed us how when they are not one the same page everything just crumbles around them. The action was not the focus of the episode, the episode gave us important details in the dialogue.

Rating: 8.9/10
