TL147 - Legends - S6E1 - Ground Control to Sara Lance

Welcome, Legendaires! We're back on the Waverider to discuss the premiere episode of season 6, Ground Control to Sara Lance. We pick up where we left off, a night of drunken fun in London 1977. Mick returns to the Waverider after dropping off his daughter to find it trashed. He finds Ava and together they piece together where to find the rest of the team. Nate is having a heart-to-heart with David Bowie, who shares that Sara was abducted by aliens. The Legends return to the Waverider with Bowie's super-8 footage and Ava finds out Sara was going to propose to her! Unfortunately, so does the entire team. Ava expertly plays the Legends until they do exactly what she knew they would do, leaving her and Nate to come up with a solid plan. We soon get the reveal that Gary was behind Sara's abduction and has been observing the Legends since his introduction to the team in Season 3. He has kidnapped Sara as an example of the quintessential human to please his boss and fiance, Kayla. Eventually, the Legends have a credible lead after they track down Spooner Cruz. She was abducted by aliens as a child and has an antenna in her head that will help locate the aliens. Between er antenna and Constantine's magic, they locate Gary, and Ava projects herself onto the alien ship. Renewed by her conversation with Ava, Sara breaks free from the cryopod and kicks Kayla out of the ship into the wormhole. Unfortunately, her tactics make the ship unstable and a bunch of aliens spills into the time stream while she and Gary careen off-course to a nearby planet.
