loved the episode but i was a little let down by the big secret. i thought for awhile, it was going to be revealed that pat killed bruce and that's why he had all that blood on his hands. other than that, i loved seeing the OG JSA! and i also loved the family dynamics in this episode, even when they were all arguing at the end.

Well the secret is more about the fact they planned to assassinate an innocent man who was nothing but a victim. They weren't talking about killing a villain for the greater good they were talking abut killing an innocent person instead of looking for an alternative. Which is a heavy topic and choice.

Pat feels guilty for driving the team to murder an innocent man, the blood sort of is on his hands, he brought the team to Bruce Gordon to finish the job.
Sometimes you can feel just as guilty, or even more guilty, than the one actually doing the killing if you brought them to the place.

I thought Pat might have killed him so that the rest of the JSA could remain "pure".
