Episode notes

"It's like, it's like some combination of Lex Luthor plus the Joker. Like, you just literally have to think of him as a sociopath," he says. "There's no rhyme or reason to this... It's just how much crazy can I do in reaction to what happens in the world?" 'We don't know that Tether has done anything untethered,' Dokwan adds. "'I'm going to solve the problems by any means necessary' is not an excuse for why we shouldn't trust our justice system,'" she concludes.
