“Runaways” Recap: We Are Not Superheroes

Following last episode’s shocking cliffhanger, “Runaways” delivers some awesome action and drama in “Radio On.” Nico, Karolina and Molly set off on a dangerous mission, while Alex grows closer to Livvie. Chase and Gert try to make the hostel a home and Molly is galvanized by recent events.

That’s My Girl | Picking up where we left off in “Gimmie Shelter,” Jonah and Karolina have some father/daughter bonding time as he teaches Karolina how to turn her glow on and off without her bracelet. After this, Karolina returns to the Hostel and lies about where she was during the earthquake. Never good when someone lies.

Behind Enemy Lines | Nico decides to get the Staff of One back from Tina and Molly and Karolina accompany her to invade the Minoru house. They almost immediately get busted by Robert, who tries to get Nico to come home, but Nico is having none of it. She tries to get the Staff from Tina, who puts up a fight with the three of them and throws Molly into the pool and then uses the Staff to freeze the surface, nearly drowning her.

Nico confronts Tina and tells her that Tina’s cruelty is why Amy is dead. Tina unfreezes the water and hands the Staff over to Nico, but tells her that the next time they meet, she won’t pull her punches. As they leave, Karolina leaves behind her bracelet, which Robert takes.

United We Stand | Nico and Karolina fight after Nico says that Karolina could’ve done more to fight Tina. The fight doesn’t last long, though, as they make up and move into a room in the Hostel together. We’re only on episode two and #Deanoru shippers are getting more than enough!

Meanwhile, Janet agrees to help Jonah and the comatose Victor build a new box, clearly with ulterior motive. Molly is traumatized after nearly drowning and sneaks out of the Hostel with a mask on and roughs up a guy mistreating his girlfriend, who says that her eyes glow like “him.” Alex goes to see Livvie again and she gives him a new hairdo before Alex kisses her. As Alex leaves, Darius calls Geoffrey to inform him where Alex is…

“Runaways” season two is now streaming on Hulu.
