Previously on
Black Lightning...

The Markovians
are on the outskirts of Freeland

and they're marshalling their forces.

The Markovians want to capture

or kill as many metas as possible.

Markovians breached the compound.

- Put Freeland on lockdown.
- Copy.

Me, Reverend Holt,
and a handful of other people,

we started up
our own underground railroad.

We've been sneaking metas
and suspected metas

outside the perimeter.

- What happened?
- We got ambushed.

They hit us with some kind of poison.

It can't be.

This poison is...

breaking down your cells
faster than anything I have ever seen.

What are you doing in my apartment?

Don't ask, you perv.
Why do you have photos of my mom?

It's not even like that.

What the hell was that?

Why is my life always so messed up?

The medicine isn't working anymore.

So I'm shapeshifting left and right.

I thought getting my feelings
out in this video

would help me stabilize...

...but I'm so scared.

Grace? Hey, hey, what happened?

I keep shifting all day.

I can't control it,
I don't know what's happening.

Okay.

I've got you, Grace.

Now your emotional state,
it causes you to shift,

so you've gotta calm down.

You wanna do our routine together?

Okay?

- Shonda.
- Yes, Anissa.

Play relaxation program.

Come on.

Breathe in and out, okay?

You're safe here.

Just listen to the sound of nature.

Smell the trees...

and flowers.

As you sink your feet...

to firm, green earth.

All those fears
that you have bundled up inside...

let 'em go.

Breathe, let them all out.

See? It works every time.

Shonda.

End relaxation program.

Program ended.

You're not always gonna be around

to talk me down like that.

Where am I gonna be?

Oh, snap.

So you plannin' on breaking up with me?

You so cold,
but you so fine, come here.

Look, I'm serious, Anissa.

I heard the ASA's going
door to door now.

- If they come here...
- They won't come here.

And that creepy Odell,

I mean, he already paid us
a social call.

He could pop back in any minute

and if I can't control my shifts...

- Grace, Grace, Grace.
- No.

I won't let the ASA take you.

Did your powers come back yet?

Not yet.

But we'll keep you out of sight

until I figure something out.

All right?

I don't appreciate
being summoned, Gambi.

You obviously have no more respect
for my work than Jefferson does.

Was... Did something happen
with the girls?

No, they're fine.

So what's so urgent?

Ever since the ASA had that fire fight
with the Markovians,

the ASA has gone into overdrive

with Jeff and Anissa
smack in the line of fire.

Now, I can't protect them
unless I stay ahead of the ASA's plans.

So I need to access
the ASA's mainframe.

Well, the only way
to do that would be...

Gambi.

The ASA picks me up in a sedan,

I'm blindfolded for the entire journey

to and from The Pit,
I have no idea where it is.

I do.

That's not what I need you for.
I need you...

...to sneak in with this.

This Markovian attack
has got the ASA so riled up,

they're going door to door in Freeland
looking for safe houses.

Which will eventually lead them here.

I know for a fact
churches have protective status

during any military operation.

The ASA is legally prohibited

from stepping one foot
inside of this church.

Reverend, the ASA don't give a damn
about international law,

and this new chick in charge,
this Major Grey,

she's got ice in her veins.

Look, they've already begun
on the outside edges of the city.

Jamillah's getting word
out on the radio.

How soon before they reach here?

Not long.

Well, I got something in the works
to breach the reinforced perimeter,

but it's not ready yet.

Well, then, the good Reverend and I
will have to improvise.

Last night, I saw a superhero
He was black

He said, "This is for the street
Black Lightning's back"

Uh... My bad, wrong car.

Jennifer, sorry to meet like this.

I'm Major Sara Grey.

- ASA.
- Great.

Stranger danger, bye.

Agent Odell was shot
during a Markovian attack,

I'm acting director of operations.

Thought you'd wanna know since
you two worked so closely together.

He always spoke very highly of you.

- Is he dead?
- Far from it.

He's in the hospital
and expected to make a full recovery.

Getting shot at his age,

he needs to go ahead and retire,

start that rideshare business
like I told him.

You know,
there's an ancient warrior saying,

"Beware an old man in a profession
where men usually die young."

Odell's as tough as they come,
he'll be back straight away.

Well, maybe with a woman in charge,

we'll finally get
some stuff done around here.

Let me just go light up the fools
that shot Odell, okay?

- Be done with it.
- Absolutely not.

Why the hell not?

Odell said himself that
I'm the best the ASA has, so...

That's exactly why we can't risk you
falling into enemy hands.

So no more using your powers.

And no more flying.

Are you serious?
Y'all are grounding me?

Like I don't get enough of that
from my parents already.

The Markovian threat is far greater
than we thought, Jennifer.

We have good reason to believe

the Markovians have safe houses
throughout Freeland,

we've already encountered
several of their embedded mercenaries.

You need to leave this to the pros.

Trust me.

Okay.

Trust is earned, right?

If there's anything I can do
to make this transition easier, I...

Yeah, actually, there is something.

Everything the ASA has on Dr. Jace.

Jace? Why?

Well, if Odell didn't tell you what he
and I were working on regarding Jace,

it's not really my place to say, right?

I see.

Look, Eddie Munster,

you wanna be besties, I'm gonna
need the full dossier on Jace, okay?

Package has been delivered.

You sure this damn thing will work?

Look, I put a diuretic in the sports
drink that Two-Bits gave him.

It won't be long.

Move over, you're squishing me.

- Natalie.
- Settle down, y'all.

Don't make me have to come back there.

Everybody, say a quiet prayer,
you buckle up.

All right, get ready.

All clear.

Damn it!

Let this be a lesson, my children.

Skin folk ain't always kin folk.

This negro just messed us up.

Hey.

Yeah, okay, nice to see you, too.

What's up, man? What's wrong with you?

Black Lightning is what's wrong with me.

Now, yesterday, he defused a bomb

and screwed up a diversion we have
for our underground railroad.

What? Wait.

Our underground railroad?

Plan?

So you were involved
with planting that bomb?

I'm more than involved, Jeff,
and I wanna bring you into the fold,

but I don't know
exactly where you stand.

Now, one minute,
Black Lightning is roughing up the ASA

over some damn graffiti,
and the next minute,

he's saving the ASA from a bomb.

Whose side are you on, man?

Wait, you planted a bomb, man,
you could've hurt innocent people.

I controlled the detonator and made sure
no one was in the vicinity.

No, no, you know
bombs misfire all the time.

The shrapnel could've
hit the guard, or you.

Or, or one of the children.

It was a calculated risk, Jeff.

What am I supposed to do,
let the ASA capture more metas?

No, of course not.
I'm talking innocent people,

you're talking a calculated risk?

Are you hearing yourself right now?

Hate begets hate,

violence begets violence.

And toughness begets
a greater toughness, yeah, man,

I know, you ain't the only one

who can quote Dr. King from memory.

Now, look, the ASA,
ever since they came to Freeland,

they have forced me to push their agenda
through press conferences,

they have taken over my police station.

They got one of my officers killed.

Yeah, the ASA locked me up.

Poked me like a lab rat,
took me away from my family.

Beat me down in the street.

So I understand you're frustrated,
you're pissed off,

so am I.

But I cannot get down
with your methods, man.

Duly noted for the record.

I'm only trying to do what I can
to protect this city.

Yeah. By living a double life.

Chief of Police.

Member of the resistance.

Now you remember
how pissed off you were

when I didn't tell you
I was Black Lightning.

Who got the secret now?

Are you seriously trying to compare me
keeping a secret for 30 days

to you keeping a secret for 30 years?

No! Look, the point is,
we gotta get on the same page.

And by same page you mean
doing things the way you would do them.

Now, look, this "my way or the highway"
mess you run on your daughters,

you can't run on me.
I know what I'm doing.

All I'm saying is that

we gotta communicate our plans
with each other.

Oh, okay, great, so then next time
Black Lightning goes out on the street,

he'll give me a call, right?

Huh?

Didn't think so.

Since we can't get on the same page,

how about you handle the ASA your way,
I'll handle it my way.

No, Henny.

Bill!

Guess who showed up in the nick of time
to short out the bomb.

- Who?
- Black Lightning.

Coincidence? Hell no. I don't think so.

He's a ASA sell-out.

They are closing in on us, Blackbird.

I still don't have a way
through the upgraded perimeter.

Well, I pray you get it posthaste.

The children will stay here with me
hidden until you do.

Gambi, what's the status
on the updated perimeter?

I need a way out now.

That's enough.

Expel your energy.

Mmm-hmm.

Erica's holding stable at 100%.

Good.

That's great, Dr. Blair, thank you.

Dr. Stewart, I just wanna say...

what an honor it is
for me to be working alongside you.

Oh.

I followed your career
for several years.

Your writings published
in the Journal of Neurosurgery are...

...sleep inducing?

Brilliant.

Groundbreaking.

You don't strike me as the type of woman
who's interested in accolades,

but in my humble opinion,

you deserve it.

All of them.

Uh, well, I'm grateful to have someone
with your credentials

working on my team,

even if you're a shameless suck-up
on your first day.

Can't really help that, Dr. Stewart.

I was born with a brown nose.

Stable at 100%.

Excellent.

Is that one of the Green Light metas?

Yes. Erica Moran.

Absorbed kinetic
converted into raw strength.

Hoo-freakin'-rah.

Are you all right, Erica?

Her output has dropped to 50%.

- 40%.
- Why? What happened?

I think a meta power like a muscle.
If you don't train that muscle...

It becomes weak.

Exactly.

Metas can't maintain output at 80%
for long without exhaustion.

Build her stamina, Dr. Stewart.

Sustained 100% output is required.

Hold on, Major.

If you want the metas
to be stable for longer,

Dr. Blair and I will need clearance
to all the sectors in this facility

and access to all meta-related files.

You white coats

are the most high maintenance,
annoying...

Fine.

Granted.

On one condition.

You'll have additional access,

but only to the Green Light metas.

Wait, why only the Green Light kids?

Because I said so.

I hope people are swiping left
on her Tinder profile.

I can't believe I'm saying this,
but she actually makes me miss Odell.

Would you mind charting
all the vitals from today's testing?

Not at all.

Thank you.

Brandon, I've been looking
everywhere for you.

You mean after you ghosted me for days?

Okay, look, my bad,
I just needed some time, all right?

This is a lot.

But we need to talk about
what happened at your place.

Which part
of what happened at my place

do you want to talk about,
Jennifer Pierce?

Ooh!

That's really cute, but that's not gonna
raise your cred around here.

My goal was to lower your cred.

Okay, one: you wish, and two: why?

Payback.

For what?

I don't know,

you breaking into my place...

and trying to electrocute me?

All right, I'm sorry for all of that,

but you know I'm trying
to talk about the other thing.

I haven't the slightest idea
of what you're talking about,

like I don't even know, to be honest.

Attention.

This is a Markovian attack drill.

I repeat,
this is a Markovian attack drill.

Find a buddy, take cover

and shelter in place
until the "all clear."

All right.

Might as well just... read.

Seriously, dude?

Deadass.

We're literally in the middle of an
"in case your worst enemy attacks" drill

in the middle of an occupation.

Normal stuff like school and quizzes,
it doesn't matter anymore.

Look, I don't have no family, nothing.

So I'm gonna make my own
with this education,

'cause this occupation thing won't last.

How do you know?

'Cause nothing ever does.

All right, screw this drill.

You trying to go smoke?

Nah.

I can help you find Dr. Jace.

How?

You have to do something for me
first though.

What? Wait. Jen, hold up.

You said you can find her?

Two-by-two, move!

- They're gonna snatch our asses.
- Hush up, girl.

Move!

Now, everybody... Everybody, keep still.

Keep still.

Only by Your power

can we push back our enemies.

- Go, go, go!
- Move!

Go. Move!

Only in Your name
can we trample our foes.

We are protected by the blood of Jesus.

The grace of God is protecting us.

Come on now.

Come on.

Lord!

Lord have mercy, Two-Bits.

About to send your ass
to the promised land.

Hey, man, I was just

seeing how y'all was holding up.

- Lord, have mercy.
- I figured y'all would be hungry,

so I bought y'all some chicken wings,
some fries, you know?

- Snacks.
- It's all right.

Come on, y'all.

Hey, I got a little
something strong for you, Rev.

That's just what I need.

Come on, get something to eat then.

Get some plates and get some chicken
and some French fries.

- So you got my favorite?
- Ah, yes, sir.

Ah! Praise the Lord.

Praise the Lord.

Okay, so before I come in, have you...

invited me here
just so you could throw me out?

Yet again?

Dad, come in.

I need your help,
I want you to take my place

escorting the children
out of the perimeter.

You want me to help you
with the underground railroad?

- Yes.
- Okay, first I have to ask...

did you know anything
about Henderson planting a bomb?

Look, I knew he and Reverend Holt
were planning something.

- Reverend Holt, too?
- But I did not know the specifics.

So now that you're aware,

what are your intentions?

You gonna continue
to be a symbol for a movement

that uses those kind of tactics?

Come on, Anissa,
I taught you better than that.

The ends don't always
justify the means.

Well, if we lived in a world
that was black and white, yes.

But we are living in an occupation,

and if I'm being honest,

I had to do some things
that I'm not proud of

to make the underground railroad work.

- Such as?
- Please, please,

do not do this right now.

Besides, this is not about me
or the resistance.

It's about the people
who need Black Lightning.

I need Black Lightning.

There. I said it.

Are you happy?

Grace can't control her shapeshifting.

And I'm worried that
she'll be captured by the ASA.

- Oh, Anissa.
- Dad.

I love her.

And I would get her out myself.

But I am still hurt
from bringing Tavon back,

like you asked.

Now, I know I'm always saying
that I'm a grown-ass woman

and that I've got this.

And most days I do.

But today...

Today I don't.

And I am asking you...

to help.

The mainframe is around the corner,
second door on the left.

Let her go. Hey, hey.

- Hey!
- Hey! Get off her.

Get off me!

The Marko what?
I don't know nothing about that.

Stay down, old man.

Hey! Leave him alone.

Next house, Sergeant Grayle.

Come on, move, move, move!

Team Bravo, advance.

Take cover.

Team Bravo, fall back.

Fire Team Alpha,
lay down suppressive fire.

Well, we were very fortunate
to have you in the area.

You turned my city into a war zone.

We don't execute people in Freeland.

Let him go.

You had no right
to commit cold-blooded murder.

I said put him down.

I don't take orders from you, lady.

Black Lightning,
you will obey my commands,

or I will order enough air strikes

to turn this craphole
into hell on Earth,

and I will simply pick the enemy
from the rubble.

Commandos.

Police the area.

Collect our dead.

And you've never been here before?

No, Grey only recently gave me access...

Khalil?

Khalil.

He can't hear you.

How is that possible?
We buried him.

It's in stasis.

The most humane thing
we can do is unplug it.

No!

Khalil is still in there somewhere.

Lynn, stop this.

The Khalil we knew died.

The ASA is gonna know that
you tampered with this thing.

It looks like they completely
wiped his limbic system.

He's got an advanced chip in his brain.

I've seen experiments
with prosthetics in the blind,

but this... Wait!

I found his memory files,
I'm gonna open one.

His memories are intact.

The Khalil we know is still in there.

I'm gonna wake him up.

Lynn, let this go, please.

Your staring is less
than professional, Doctor.

Stewart, Lynn Stewart.
I'm sorry, I just...

- Do you recognize me?
- Of course.

Your CV is in my files.

Dr. Lynn Stewart,

prize-winning, respected
neuro surgeon and scientist.

Specialty: meta-humans.

What do you require, Dr. Stewart?

State your previous missions.

Eliminate the smuggler
known as Sinzell. Check.

Destroy Markovian safe house.
Levelled.

Exterminate the Blackbird. Done.

Kill Nichelle Payne.

Terminated with prejudice.

Oh, my God.

Is there a problem, Dr. Stewart?

No, I just need you to return
to stasis,

so I can run a few upgrades
on your brain chip.

That thing killed Khalil's mother.

You need to shut
this monster down, Lynn,

before the ASA uses it
to slaughter anyone else.

He's not a monster.

Don't call him a monster
or an "it" or a thing

or any other word that isn't Khalil.

I lost 14 kids, Gambi,
14 people died because of me.

And I won't lose another person
ever again.

I'll save Khalil
if it's the last thing I do.

Lynn. I beg of you
to set your emotions aside...

You should go
before you're discovered.

Or I turn you in myself.

I've given you administrative rights
to the ASA network.

You'll have full access
to the ASA's database,

and all the surveillance footage
from inside The Pit.

I hope in the end,
you'll do the right thing.

When have I not?

Now go.

Peter...

Jen can never know about this.

Man, Jen, quit playing around.

Tell me what you know about Jace.

All right, but first things first.

Touch my hand.

No, that's stupid.

I need to know what happens
when our powers merge, okay?

Why are you still on this?

Do you wanna find Dr. Jace or not?

Brandon, do your powers do this
with anybody else?

No.

All right.

That's it, that's done.

Now tell me what you know about Jace.

Okay, do it one more time.

- Stop messing around.
- Just do it one more time

and I'mma tell you.

You know what?

You don't even know nothing
about Dr. Jace.

Get out.

Brandon, you need to chill out,
it ain't ever that serious.

Jace killed my mom,
so, yes, that's serious, Jen.

And I ain't got time
for your games right now.

So here, get out.

Fine.

- It's like that, huh?
- Yeah, it's like that.

Don't slam my door.

This is as far as I can take you, okay?

Someone else is gonna guide you
the rest of the way.

No, no, no, I don't wanna go
with anyone else.

- Don't leave me, Anissa.
- Look, I know,

you've been abandoned
in the past, Grace,

and I would never, ever do that to you.

I don't have my powers yet.

So I have someone
who is super strong to protect you.

Who?

I don't know him.

Don't make me go with him.

- He'll hurt me like the other men.
- Hey, hey, hey.

Black Lightning
would never hurt you, Grace.

I trust him more than anybody
in the world.

- So can you.
- Grace.

I will protect you.

Let me take you somewhere safe.

Look. This necklace,

it's very special to me.

And I want you to have it.

Now, if you get scared,

you just touch it.

And I'm always with you.

Now, you gotta go, okay?

We won't be apart for long.

Promise?

Yeah, I promise.

Go ahead.

Gambi just sent the coordinates
of where you can breach the perimeter.

I'll send them to you and the Perdi.

All right, tell the others
I'm on my way.

Let's go, Grace.

Black Lightning...

thank you.

Let's go, Grace.

Yeah, Blackbird told me you'd be coming.

See, I'm still not convinced
I should turn these kids over

to the ASA's boy.

We don't have time for this.

And Judas betrayed Jesus
for a mere 30 silver pieces.

What's the ASA's price for your soul,
Black Lightning?

I don't work for the ASA.

Yeah? And I'm the first black Pope.

The ASA is a block away,
they'll be here any minute.

Lord help you if you're lying to me,
Black Lightning.

Now I'll put down my arms...

for I know the God I serve
moves in mysterious ways.

Now He may not come
when you want Him to...

But He's always right on time, yeah.

I still don't trust your black ass.

Come on.

According to the ASA's schedule,

there's a patrol to your north.

Turn east on Gibson to avoid it.

Copy.

You're officially a pain in my ass,
Black Lightning.

Surrender.

Like I said, lady,
I don't take orders from you.

- Drop them.
- No!

Run to the rally point.

- We have zero visibility.
- I'm going out there.

Not without your powers, you're not.

Sorry, Anissa, but it's way
too dangerous out there for you.

Uncle Gambi, come on.

No, no way.
You haven't recovered enough yet.

Hey, everyone okay?

Yeah.

Wait, where's Grace?

I gotta go find her.

I'm the oldest,

I'll watch the other kids
while you go find Grace.

All right, thanks, Natalie.

I lost Grace.
Anybody got eyes on her?

Negative.

I can't get a visual on anything,

I've lost her in the fog.

I've got her coordinates,
I'm sending them to your visor now.

I put a tracker in the necklace
that I gave Grace.

Right here.

What in the world?

Grace.

You came back for me.

Yeah, of course I did.

I told you I wouldn't leave you.

Come on, Grace, let's go.

Anissa's really lucky

to have such an amazing family,
Mr. Pierce.

I wish that I had a dad who cared for me
as much as you care for Anissa.

But how?

I keep my leopard sense of smell

in my other forms.

Your scent matches Jefferson Pierce's.

But don't worry, I'll never tell anyone.

Promise?

I promise.

- Let's go.
- I've got them.

The image from the visor
finally cleared up.

Goodbye, Grace.

I know it hurts like hell,

but you did the right thing, Anissa.

Grace is safe.

That's all that matters.

I'll be fine.

You know, I asked
for a better sparring partner

and they sent me you, Vernon.

A meta-human

with five times the strength
of the average man.

Unfortunately for you...

I'm no average man.

And that cracking sound?

That's your lumbar vertebrae.

Its nerves connects
your brain to your legs.

That was your T7 thoracic

which controls your kidneys, spleen...

Hold that thought.
