Almost Human Recap: Blood Brothers

THIS IS THE EMERGENCY SPOILER ALERT SYSTEM...YOU ARE ADVISED TO READ AT YOUR OWN RISK...

Stupid finals kept me from watching this until now, but, finals are over! This was the first show I got caught up on.

We start with Captain Maldonado on the witness stand at a trial giving testimony against a man named Ethan Avery. The man supposedly murdered a doctor. However, at the trial, one of the eye witnesses is murdered before she can give her condemning testimony. The second witness gets away and ends up in custody. Enter Kennex and Dorian to protect her. Only, Maya just happens to be a psychic. Or a medium. Or a psychic medium! Kennex, of course, scoffs at this. But Dorian believes her. Because in 2048, you can get a magical surgery that makes you a psychic medium! Seems legit….

Anyway, the whole thing is kind of a wild goose chase for some time. There's an attempted murder on Maya by four men in hoods with armor piercing bullets. Maya gets hit with one and ends up in the hospital. Kennex, on the other hand, manages to take down one of the gunmen. Who is it? Well, as it turns out, it's Ethan Avery, only he looks about 10 years younger. What!? How is that even possible? Does that even make sense? No? Yes? I think the laws of time just cracked in half. (Save us Doctor!)

Okay, the laws of time are safe. Avery was one of the four guys that tried to kill Maya….he was also the other three guys. As well as himself…in prison. How is this not breaking some laws of time or something? Because it's not that kind of wibbly wobbly show? (How cool would that be though!?) See, the doctor he killed that got him locked in prison in the first place, just so happened to have been working with Avery. The doctor managed to figure out human cloning, before it was made illegal, and Avery was his subject/financial backing. So he created four clones. All of which end up dead by the end of the show. Which is pretty good considering they did kidnap the hot detective girl Kennex has been crushing on since day one.

And! The best news!? We get another episode next week! How awesome is that!?
