Our Take
This one trades superhero action for a family story about Virgil dealing with his dad dating again, and it mostly lands. The emotional beats feel earned rather than preachy, and the voice acting sells the awkwardness well. It’s a slower episode, but a good change of pace. Worth watching if you like the Hawkins family dynamic.
