“Cloak & Dagger” Recap: Into the Dark We Go
This week, “Cloak & Dagger’s” newest episode, “Rabbit Hole,” takes us inside the cloak of all places for a trippy ride into some uncomfortable subjects. Tandy tries to retrieve Mayhem by going into the dark dimension, where she encounters an unsettling display. Ty attempts to get his mother out of danger.
Make Me Afraid | After Ty and Tandy teleport back to the church- do they go anywhere else?- Ty reveals to Tandy that he sucked Connors into his cloak the night of the Roxxon incident. Tandy realizes that Ty could’ve easily freed him and exonerated himself, but Ty says that if he had done that, Connors could’ve killed someone else he cares about. Tandy goes inside Ty’s cloak to find Mayhem since she knows more about the missing girls and she winds up at the gas station, which turns out to be a Roxxon gas station.

Dark Deal | While this is going on, O’Reilly sees gang members at the police station gravitating towards Ty’s wanted poster and warns that they could go after his family. Ty goes to his mother’s house, where they have a reunion, while Tandy meets some mysterious keeper who takes the form of a young Ty for some reason. The keeper tells Tandy that to find Mayhem, she needs to give up her powers, but when she does, it also takes away Ty’s powers, leaving Ty and his mother in a precarious position when the gang comes after them.
As Ty and his mother run away from the gang chasing them, Tandy meets Mayhem at a mall and as they explore, they find a section of the mall where someone has apparently been living in. They also find a record store where all the vinyls have pictures of the missing girls. Creepy!
Lost Souls | Even more creepy, there’s a section of the records that has pictures of Tandy. Three of the records are still wrapped and when Tandy listens to them, she experiences flashbacks to her childhood where she unintentionally witnessed her father abusing her mother.
Ty and his mother are cornered in an abandoned building and Ty calls O’Reilly to surrender to the police. O’Reilly takes his mother outside, where the SWAT team is preparing to take Ty out. Ty is cornered with no way out, while Mayhem finds none other than Connors in the mall and tries to hang him before Tandy summons her daggers and saves him. As Ty gets his powers back and teleports to the church again, Tandy and Connors come with him and Connors escapes.
