Viewers have probably not been able to process the tragic fourth episode of Creature Commandos yet, which brought the dark, harrowing origin of Weasel to light, and the fifth episode of the series has already doubled down on the pervading grim undertone by showcasing Eric Frankenstein’s past. Previously, a captive Circe had shown visions of an apocalyptic future to Amanda Waller, where princess Ilana Rustovic of Pokolistan is shown to cause nuclear armageddon in the future, which will result in the deaths of millions, including Dcu’s superpowered protectors. As Themyscira expert Professor MacPherson vouched for Circe, mentioning the visions shown by her to be real, Waller was convinced to consider Ilana as a threat and ordered Flag Sr. to return to Pokolistan with his team to eliminate her. As Flag Sr. refused to follow her command, given he had reservations regarding Waller’s decision, Bride was assigned the role of team leader.
