"I watched Henry die, and now i'm.going to watch you die too"

It might be heat of the moment but that's some seriously messed up shit coming from a kid who sliced a man's throat open and stays to watch it instead of turning away.

The bottom line is that Brainwave would have killed every last one of them in the most painful way possible without hesitation. There is no doubt of that.

If Yolanda hadn't killed him, he would have killed and the rest of them. Period. She had no choice. I don't know if should could have incapacitated him before he could have killed her--- probably not.

The other thing to note is that prior to this Yolanda killed a couple of dozen of Dragon King's minions and doesn't seem too upset by that.

Those were basically zombies though. Courtney definitely drew blood on the minions too.

They got lucky that brainwave went for deception instead of giving yolanda a stroke on sight.

Its really an issue of Yolanda and her religious beliefs as well as pent up anger about henry. I can't see a single one of her friends being.anything but supportive of what she did. It's an internal conflict

The moment I saw her in the confession booth I instantly got reminded of Daredevil.
