Ooh boy. 

The Kin Rit/Yardeen family really does need a star to follow by, don’t they? If they lose the people they’re tethered to they fall apart pretty fast. Intensely loyal and very emotionally dependent. They can conquer armies, planets, and empires as long as the person they’ve tethered themselves to are still alive. 

And Human!Khylen (and I think he is Human) now that he thinks his daughters are inaccessible has now fallen sway to the Lady’s emotional manipulation. 

Aneela and Dutch have the benefit of their mother’s (original!Yalena) inner strength even if their world falls apart so their not fully Kin Rit in their weakness (their soft spots).

Killjoys also come back to one of its themes, the emotionally complicated minefield of emotional and physical abuse by family. Something all the Team Awesome force shares together in different ways. 

The Jaqobis had a physically abusive father and an addict mother, Dutch grew up in a ‘family’ that fostered violence against each other, her father, Khlyen trained her at a young age to become an assassin to protect herself. Aneela, her origin-sister forgot all about Dutch and resulted in Aneela trying to kill Dutch, until Dutch returned Aneela’s memories and Aneela remembered she loved Dutch. 

Zeph returned to her abusive, ultra-conservative homestead and had to really confront her demons and all the complicated emotions they inspire. Fear, Hate, and confusingly love and respect. 

Something Dutch can understand. I love that Dutch claimed Zeph as family and they did push through and got their own ‘BRAWN’ and ‘BRAIN’ t-shirts. 

Also, everyone is in love with Fancy Lee now, as they should. Zeph and Johnny want to fight over him! Jokingly, maybe even seriously.

If my low key ship of Dutch and Johnny can’t happen, I hope we see Clara again and they end up together. 

I’m missing Aneela and Kendry and I hope we see them next episode! 

Only a few more episodes to go!
