The Gotham crew of "Harley Quinn" has been thriving in Metropolis this season. Harley Quinn Podcast hosts Vanessa, Keenon, and Mike break down episode four of the MAX animated series "Breaking Brainiac."

At the end of episode three, Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy are captured by Brainiac. In episode four, it takes a minute to find out what happens to our favorite couple, because this is a Vril Dox origin story! Vril (or as Lena Luthor calls him Brainiac or Brainy) has a wife, a kid, a life before he comes a Superman menace. He's hellbent on perfecting Metropolis and the girls stay in his way.

The hosts talk all things Brainiac, the loss of his family and home, Lena's real motives, the clever Coluan writing and sitcom vibes, plus all the latest DC Studios news that came out this week!

Read Vanessa's full season five review here (spoiler warning).

Synopsis: The fifth season of "Harley Quinn" finds Harley (Kaley Cuoco) and Ivy (Lake Bell) in a new location: Metropolis, the home of all things Superman, Lois Lane, and the Daily Planet. Harley and Ivy discover that something sinister is at play and all is not what it seems. Looming threats include Lex Luthor and his sister, Lena Luthor, plus fan-favorite Brainiac. But of course, Harley's crew of misfits and allies will join her on this irreverent journey that takes no prisoners in having fun in the DC sandbox.
