Gen V Recap: Advanced Influencer Fluency

Much of the latest episode focuses on the heroes trying to stay out of trouble after Cate’s attack. This would be difficult enough normally, but Vought News is exploiting the situation, framing it as a “hate crime” for their own political gain – a sadly familiar tactic. The young heroes disagree on how to proceed: Jordan wants to escape, as usual, and Emma shockingly suggests killing Cate if she recovers. Marie doesn’t agree with violence, but she sides with Emma in wanting to follow Starlight’s lead and investigate Project Odessa. Even though she’s back at God U and knows she should lay low – her forced social media posts won’t convince anyone she’s okay – she can’t ignore her urge to do the right thing.
