Welcome back fellow guardians, this week Derek and John are joined by Chris to chat all about Lanterns Episode 2 "Trust Fall" as Hal and John go on separate journeys in 2016.
Lanterns Episode 2 “Trust Fall” Synopsis
Episode Written by: Vanessa Baden and Chris Mundy
Episode Directed By: James Hawes
Back in Rushville in 2016, Hal tries to give John Stewart his first flying lesson. But when John creates an actual bird and drains the Power Ring, Hal tasks him to go to Coast City to retrieve his charging lantern and keeping the created bird alive throughout the trip.
While John is on his journey, Hal continues his investigation into the alien shoot-out in Rushville. Using the bodies of the dead aliens, he learns that William Macon had set up alien detectors at the football stadium. Hal tries to force William to reveal his boss but a warning shot from his army sends Hal to the mysteriously empty medical centre to heal his wounds.
Meanwhile, in Coast City, John retrieves the Lantern from Hal's mansion and feeds his carnivorous plant, Earl. As soon as he leaves he's ambushed and kidnapped by aliens who are convinced a shape-shifting being called a Manhunter is in Rushville. If John doesn't find the Manhunter they will blow themselves up destroying most of Nebraska.
John returns to town and asks Hal for information on the Manhunters. But Hal tells him it's above his pay grade. When John leaves Hal puts on his Green Lantern suit and flies to a prison planet where he confronts another lantern Sinestro. He will provide Hal with the info on Manhunters if he shares details about John Stewart.
