Already frustrated with men thanks to her relationship with Det. Reese, Helena (Ashley Scott) is none too pleased when a metahuman calling himself Darkstrike (Kristoffer Polaha) visits New Gotham to team up with her and Barbara (Dina Meyer). However, Helena warms to the enigmatic stranger when he explains his history with the Crawler---a nefarious criminal with the nasty habit of murdering his abductees. When the fiend kidnaps an innocent teen, the crimefighters must race against the clock to ensure that the latest victim doesn't meet the fate of her predecessors.

This could be an interesting episode considering what the circumstances surrounding the team-up between Helena and Darkstrike are. But I really, really want to see more development on Babs and Dinah's side as opposed to the show being an all Helena show. Not that I don't like Helena.

Helena is the next Batman literally but the show is titled HELENA, it's BIRDS OF PREY. BIRDS as in the pural sense, not derived as one.

Still, I'm loving every minute of the show and I can't wait to see Dinah do some more fighting, that girl is stronger then she knows.

Why do I think Darkstrike isn't all of a hero they say he is...just look at the pic? Is it just me?

^^Well in the previews it shows Helena being knocked out and dragged away (and the pics that have been released make it seem like Darkstrike and the bad guy are two in the same ) so I think its safe to assume Helena is in some trouble. Plus I read somewhere that this guy targets women in love and from the spoilers on this site it would seem that Helena is a little jealous of a woman that works with Reese. I can't wait to see how Helena gets out of this one. Wonder if Dinah will have to lend a hand and kick some butt again this week.

How can that be? They're played by two different people.

I agree with you, he is so hot. I can't wait, only about 45 minutes left!:D I hope they develop more on Wade and Barbara. I think they make a cute couple. Even though he is no Nightwing.:blush: I also want to see Dinah kick some ass. She was awesome last episode. The last thing I want to see happen is Helena telling Reese her real name. Though I doubt it will be anytime soon.:(
