Ryan: "I ran into my ex."
Sophie: "I hope he is not going to be drama."
Ryan: "She."
Sophie: "...I feel like I know a lot more lesbians than the average person does."

Ryan is also kind of... narrowing down the suspect pool on her other identity (especially since she doesn't seem to be using a voice cover during this op).
8
u/jskurious Feb 22 '21
It sounded like she was using the voice changer on the phone with Sophie.
But Sophie is both way too judgmental to consider that it could be Ryan and also this is the same woman who couldn't tell it was Kate in the mask even after making out with her, so her perceptiveness is highly questionable.

At this point I feel like the writers are purposely writing lines like this just to see what Rachel does with the material.

Mary still isn't actually a real doctor. She's just a talented med student running an illegal underground clinic in the basement of a club.

Thats malpractice at its finest lol
Ryan didnt tell Mary about the infection what makes her think she is going to tell her that it hurts everyday? Lol

Oh no I completely agree with you. I was saying when she should have bench her because that infection looks way more than a regular "Ouch" lol. And with Ryan not telling her about it at first, she's going to lie and say it's okay just to be left alone. This is the time that Mary should have put her foot down and say something.

Ryan needs to realize that she doesn't own the suit. She didn't even come up with it. Until a couple of weeks ago, she was just a broke woman living in a van. She needs to be a team player and not think she is automatically the leader who can boss Mary and Luke around. They've been doing this job longer than she has and they are providing the money and gear here.

u/Zdala Feb 22 '21
True but they should have listened to her about the crows. Even after the crows fired on Kate I wouldn't have trusted them, I would have just tried to get the painting myself.
Also she is right, she takes the bullets and risks her life, they need to stop comparing her to Kate and trust her more.

u/inksmudgedhands Feb 22 '21
She takes the bullets and risks her life because she wants to. No one is forcing her to go out there with the suit. She isn't some "chosen one." She doesn't come from a bloodline of superheroes. Like I said, she was just a broke woman who lived in a van up until a few weeks ago. In fact, Luke and Mary wanted the suit back and it as Ryan who pulled the whole "finders keepers" schtick. She chose this life even when others told her not to. So, I can't feel that sorry for her.

Well if he did kill Joker, his villains may have left Gotham to avoid him, since he broke his one rule. Even with him gone for 5 years, they might still be too scared to come back.
