Zods and Monsters: Season 2 Episode 7

WARNING: If you don't want to know what happened in this episode, don't read this photo recap! 

We start off this week's episode of Krypton in an alternate universe. It turns out that in this one, Lyta and Seg actually agreed to bind to each other, and they have a blast!

Fast forward, and we're back at the Fortress. Seg and Nyssa are trying in vain to scan the universe for their beloved Jor-El (FKA Cor-Vex). Then they hear a noise coming from the entrance to their cave...

It's Jayna and Dev-Em. They're here to help!

Meanwhile, Zod and his weapons expert are hard at work making Doomsday tractable to their wills. But it's hard. They need something to keep the monster's mind in an impressionable state. General Zod might have something.

It's a plant, called the Black Mercy, that can trick the body into thinking it's alive when it's actually dead. Right now, it's grafted onto Lyta's body. But wait, didn't Lyta die on Wegthor? Nope! That was just a clone! And remember that alternate universe? That's what's keeping Lyta's brain alive. How sick is that?!

At the Fortress, Seg, Nyssa, Jayna and Dev are hatching a plan to lay seige to Zod's first fleet before it can launch to Wegthor. If it reaches the planet, it'll be complete destruction. They're going to breach the stronghold through some underground tunnels.

But shortly after they execute the attack, Nyssa and Seg are forced to surrender to a roomful of Sagitari. That leaves Jayna and Dev to find the armory.

In Lyta's fantasy, reality starts to impose itself. The suppressed truth in Lyta's mind breaks in and mucks things up. There's trouble in paradise: namely, her child will be the jerk General Zod.

And they get that more from Lyta's paralyzed body.

With some of the toxin out of her body, Lyta is able to overcome the paralysis and wake up. Before she can leave, she has to extricate a bunch of planty tendrils from her throat, though. Hope there's mouthwash on Krypton!

Meanwhile, Dev and Jayna are worming their way through the halls trying to find the armory when they're stopped by some Sagitari.

Luckily, Lyta has come to her senses enough to blast the Sagitari away and save her ex-bethrothed and mum. It's a reunion!

Dev splits from the mother-daughter pair, and breaks Nyssa and Seg free from their little prison, by punch through a forcefield barrier. Dev 4 the win!

Lyta uses her insider knowledge to deactivate the fleet, as Jayna watches in awe. Oh, if age but could!

After that's done, she reunited with the rest of the gang and in particular Seg. They also united mouths... and tongues, and upper bodies.

Also, General Zod is PISSED.
