Legend of Korra Recap: Old Wounds

Book 3: Change / Part VI Awwww, shit, my acolytes, it’s that Beifong Secret Origins #2, the one the streets been waiting on ever since Lin sacrificed herself two seasons ago by ripping open a gotdamn airship like she was unwrapping a Christmas present and shit.

First and foremost though, how the fuck did we not realize from jump that Varrick was Tony Stark aka Iron Man before!?!?

All signs were there, yo. Morally ambiguous billionaire playboy that invents shit and has a personal assistant that adheres to his every need? I feel like I let the fam down not calling this shit before and had to have it beat me over the head. For real, these recaps are chess my people’s, if I don’t see these revelations coming, then how do we expect to progress as a people in these trying times.

I’ll do better. Back to the action at hand, Lin “Where the party at” Beifong is STILL FED UP like we didn’t have a week between episodes. I love Lin, but somebody gotta tell her to turn her No Chill to “Stun.” She out here taking her aggravation out on everybody. Cats just trying to do their jobs and work through that 9-5 downtime, b. Metal City don’t need no Office Linebackers up in here.

Finally, Truth Serum roll up on her with some creepy, 90’s R&B like, “I can tell that you’re ready” type of observation and sends Lin to an acupuncturist…cuz they got those in the Metal City fam. Bruh, I really need to get a peep at Zaofu’s books. How their economy thriving and these cats got like no imports/export…
