'Legends of Tomorrow': "Tender Is the Nate" Photos Released
11/20/2018 04:59 pm EST
The CW has released a batch of photos for "Tender Is the Nate", the seventh episode of Legends of Tomorrow's fourth season.
The photos showcase the Legends' newest adventure in 1920s Paris, which is set to involve the Time Bureau in a very particular way. As fans saw in the final moments of this week's "Tagumo Attacks!!!", Hank Heywood (Tom Wilson) has some sort of secret intentions with the magical fugitives that the Time Bureau and the Legends are catching, something that he called "Project Hades".
It's pretty safe to assume that taking Hank on the Waverider isn't going to go entirely well, and might bring the ethics of the whole hunt for magical fugitives into question.
"Ironically [adding the magical fugitives] made it much darker," co-showrunner Phil Klemmer echoed in a recent interview. "It made it much more morally ambiguous. When you're trying to fix history, you can argue about how it needs to be done but you have to fix it. With magical creatures, you're asking big questions like do they belong in our world? Is this really our world to police? We spent a ridiculous amount of time debating morality for a show that's a time-traveling action comedy. Is it fair to put a Minotaur in a cage at the Time Bureau? None of these things exist, but we're asking if a Minotaur has a soul and conscience."
The episode will also see Mona (Ramona Young) getting into some sort of hijinks at the Time Bureau, now that she serves as a sort of wrangler for the magical fugitives.
"Mona kind of lives in like a world of her own." Young told reporters during a recent visit to the show's set. "And she's kind of nerdy, kind of geeky. I wouldn't say that she's exactly happy with the direction of her life, that her parents kind of set her out to live. So she kind of builds her own world of fantasy through reading and doing fanfic and stuff like that."

"SHOCKED BUT NOT FORGOTTEN

The Legends then show Hank what they do by visiting 1920s Paris, trying to capture the newest Fugitive.
Meanwhile, Mona (Ramona Young) is trying to make a good impression with Ava, but her over eagerness gets her and Ava stuck in a cell instead.
Caity Lotz, Matt Ryan, Brandon Routh, Dominic Purcell, Tala Ashe and Maisie Richardson-Sellers also star. Dean Choe directed the episode written by Phil Klemmer & Matthew Maala."
