You’re gonna love Black beetle this season. He’s either ridiculously strong or hilarious

[@arjunwali9885]

6:58 and thats why what mgann was doing was so risky. theres no room for error because if she messes up, the damage could be permanent. and she isnt held accountable by anyone, because shes arguably the strongest telepath in the show.

[@blacktogami3811]

That's basically what her and Connor were talking about. She basically said "you could tell nightwing or the league, but who's gonna check me?

[@MandatoryFruit]

@@blacktogami3811 The Flash and Superman are pretty much immune to telepathy since they literally think too fast for Meghan to keep up with. Superboy seems to have some degree of resistance to her telepathy since he could tell when she has tried to alter his memories. There's also magic beings like Captain Marvel and Dr. Fate who are probably immune. Though that's just conjecture based of the fact that Captain Marvel has the powers of six different gods, and the other is literally a cosmic entity that exists within a helmet. Literally anyone else gets clapped tho. EDIT: Maybe Zatanna could do something too. She's probably got some kind of defensive spell against telepathy.

[@arjunwali9885]

@@MandatoryFruit i wasnt really making that statement to say mgann is automatically stronger than other people, its just that she has so much power with next to know oversight, especially since both flash, superman, her uncle and the other core 7 leaguers are off world. But thats what makes this season so great. The "kids" from season 1 now have to step up and bear the burden of making difficult choices, and sometimes it works out (getting aqualad to become a spy) and sometimes it doesnt (mganns enhanced interrogations nearly destroying kaldur)

[@arjunwali9885]

UPDATE: i changed it from "awful" to risky because there are some clear benefits to this kind of stuff in the case of potentially world level threats (alien invasions) but without oversight and consulting others, this power can be a lot for just one person

“They should have told [her] in case this happened.” If they told people about Kaldur’ahm being undercover, they risked the enemy finding out or not believing it- real emotional reactions make it more believable.

Originally scheduled to air on October 13, 2012, this episode was inexplicably pulled off the schedule and reported to return in January 2013. However, the last minute change didn't affect on-line stores scheduled releases and on October 14, the episode was made available for purchase on iTunes and Amazon.[4] It quickly topped the downloaded charts for the "Animation" category on iTunes[6] and within hours it became the most downloaded episode of all genres. The Reach's language sound effects were done by Audio Circus. The Star City docks featured in this episode were previously used in Gotham City where Batman and Nightwing fought Amazo in Batman: Under the Red Hood, directed by Brandon Vietti. This episode is featured on Young Justice: Invasion - Destiny Calling: Season 2 Part 1.

[@Kidapollo92]

This title is a follow up to the title of the previous episode, and together they refer to the saying "It's always darkest before the dawn", or other variations. It may refer to the fact that, by dawn, the abducted heroes and civilians have been rescued by the Team, thus making up for the grim events of the past episode. Also, the Reach makes a public introduction at dawn, which contrasts with the message of hope derived from the aforementioned proverb, whereas in actuality it signals a prelude for dark times ahead. The title can also refer to the revelations in the episode. Many things hitherto shrouded in mystery, such as the identity of the Partner and their agent, Kaldur's mission, the true source of Blue Beetle's Scarab, and Miss Martian's predilection towards lobotomizing, now stand revealed before the light of day. Finally, the actions taken by the Team before day had broken have forced the Reach to reveal themselves to the people of Earth, and take control of the narrative before the Justice League could paint it as an invasion.
