Stargirl: Season 2 Episode 13: Summer School: Chapter 13: Review

 The season finale of season 2 is outstanding from start to finish, easily making it the best episode of the series!!

Cindy, Yolanda, and Pat having to fight their inner demons was a well done action scene. The show saved their action well, and this fight scene was outstanding. So great watching Wildcat and Shiv back in action.

Courtney, Yolanda, and Shaiv taking on Eclipso was an epic scene. Eclipso did not hold back in this fight, and I loved it. They were no match for Eclipso, obviously!

Mike, Jakeem, and Zeek trying to repair S.T.R.I.P.E. was a hilarious scene. I loved Zeek's reaction to seeing the Thunderbolt! His facial expressions were perfect! I nearly died when the Thunderbolt brought back all kinds of Chinese food, and Zeek started eating it!

Mike (Who was piloting S.T.R.I.P.E.), Jakeem, and Thunderbolt taking on Eclipso was kind of funny. I could not believe how easily Eclipso defeated Thunderbolt! Mike had me dying of laughter when he was beating up Eclipso with S.T.R.I.P.E.

Rick, who could not fix the hourglass in time, brings Solomon Grundy to the battle! Solomon manages to land a couple of solid hits on Eclipso, but Eclipso unleashes his full power and kills Solomon, by blowing a hole in his chest! Loved that Grundy redeemed himself, but was sad when he got killed!

Eclipso then proceeds to break Pat's arm in front of Courtney, and she screams that she hates him. Eclipso then possess Courtney, and becomes what he wanted to become! Nick Tarabay knocked it out of the park in this scene! So glad they used him for the finale!

As Beth watches her parents about to be consumed by the Shadowland, The Shade arrives and saves her family and stops the Shadowlands from coming into the building! Dr. McNider's reaction to seeing the Shade alive and well was priceless. Jonathan Cake manages to steal the show once again, and I am so glad that he is back!

Beth's parents reaction to finding out that their daughter is a superhero was priceless!!! This show does a great job with its humor, and I hope they can continue it into next season!

Cindy and Yolanda then work together to try and steal the staff from the now possessed Courtney! They are of course no match for him! As Eclipso brags that no one can control the staff but him, Starman arrives and takes hold of the staff and tells Courtney to fight back! Finally!!!! Starman returned!!

Courtney manages to eject Eclipso from her body, due to encouragement from Starman, Pat, and Barbara. As Eclipso begins to recover, Sportsmaster, Tigress, and Artemis arrive and manage to subdue him!!!!!! So glad that they brought my favorite family in this show back!!!!!!

The Shade then tells Courtney, Jade, and Jakeem to hurry and destroy Eclipso before he can recover. Courtney and Jade then proceed to blast him with their lights! Jakeem then told the Thunderbolt to toast him, and the Thunderbolt then proceeds to turn Eclipso into actual toast!! That part had me dying of laughter!

In the aftermath, Yolanda decides to return as Wildcat fulltime, and she reconciles with Courtney! Brec Bassinger and Yvette Monreal have such good chemistry, and I love the friendship between their characters.

As Rick is burying Solomon Grundy's corpse, the Shade arrives and tells Rick that Grundy will come back to life if you bury him in the right spot and at the right time! When Rick asks Shade if he will tell him when and where before he, the Shade, leaves town, the Shade tells Rick that he is not leaving Blue Valley, due to the fact that he has grown fond of the town, and the children! So glad that Shade is sticking around!!! I love his character so much!

Cameron Mahkent manages to finish the painting of his father on the side of a building! His grandparents compliment his work, and tell him that it is time for him to know the truth about his father! They then reveal their powers to him! Did not expect the grandfather to have powers, and I am so looking forward to seeing what they decide to do with Cameron going forward!

As Yolanda is leaving church, she is confronted outside by Cindy! Cindy tells Yolanda that she is not leaving Blue Valley, and that she wants her help in convincing Courtney to let her join the JSA. YES!!!!!!!! So looking forward to watching Cindy become a member of the JSA, and seeing how they interact in the future!

As Pat and Courtney discuss how and why Starman is back, Courtney wonders if she will have to give the staff back to Starman. Starman then tells Courtney that he does not want the staff back, and that he will help her learn how to make the staff more powerful!! I am so looking forward to watching Starman train Stargirl next season!!!

As Dr. McNider prepares to leave Blue Valley to search for his wife, Beth tells him where she is, and reveals that when he disappeared, his wife was pregnant, and he has a 10 year old son that he has never met! Dr. McNider then passes the title of Dr. Mid-Nite onto Beth, and tells her that she is perfect! Loved the dynamic between these two, and I really hope that we see more of Dr. McNider next season!!!

While walking through town, Mike tells Jakeem that they should think about forming their own team!! I hope we see these two interact more next season!!!! Loved this scene a lot!

As the Whitmore-Dugan family prepare to have breakfast, Pat and Barbara mention that Starman will be living with them, and will make the basement his room!! Starman will play a huge role next season, and I am so excited to see him and Pat interact more. Plus I need to know how he survived!

While eating breakfast and feeling like everything is going back to their kind of normal, Barbara mentions to Pat, Cortney, and Mike that the house next door sold! Then the doorbell rings, and Pat answers it, and is shocked to see Sportsmaster, Tigress, and Artemis standing at the door. Tigress then offers him muffins, and Sportsmaster tells Pat that they bought the house next door and are neighbors now! The facial expressions from the Whitmore-Dugan family was hilarious, and I could not stop laughing at Courtney's response!!

The show then reveals that the next season will be called Stargirl: Frenemies!!!! Love the title, and I love the direction that they are taking with this show!!!

In a post credits scene, the woman who Jade met, when she was looking for her brother, meets with her employer, and informs him that Todd has a sister and that their are a lot of superheroes in Blue Valley. The villain, who I recognized as Mr. Bones, tells the lady that they will pay a visit to Blue Valley! Mr. Bones will be one of the villains next season, and he is played by Keith David!!! Love the casting decision, and next season is shaping up to be another outstanding season!!!!!

I love this show so much, and I hope they can continue this into next season!!!!!!!

Out of a 10 I would give it...

10 out of 10
