Well to sum up:

Well that missile hit cliffhanger was rendered pointless just by the preview. And unfortunately, Cordo isn’t that stupid apparently.

Geez, what are their ships made out of? Aura is what causes Oscar and Maria to survive, but what top secret alloy does that thing have?

Ruby calls Cordo out for her Napoleon complex, which also served as the opening needed to get inside and wreck the cannon.

Meanwhile B team and Adam exchange barbs, with Adam’s attempt at psychological warfare having no effect. The two are actually doing well in beating him up, until Blake gets knocked back and they somehow think a slingshot maneuver with Blake as the projectile instead of Yang was going to work. Seriously, we the audience and especially Adam could see that coming from a mile away.

Blake is taken out of the fight with Aura down. Adam apparently knows Yang’s name and playing the Beacon Card hits home. Yang starts to take a beating, but then figures out a perfect time to use her Semblance. The resulting counterpunch takes Adam’s Aura down, but Yang’s is depleted as well.

Yang likely refers to her dads advice as she tosses that sword into the falls. Adam running after it sets up an uppercut by Blake and B team manages to use what’s left of Gambol Shroud to stab Adam from two sides. Adam pulls a Green Goblin “Oh” before falling off, hitting a rock face to cause further damage before slipping beneath a very icy river.

For those questioning Adam’s status, let’s run through his damage report.

1.) Aura depleted.

2.) Two stab wounds where the lungs would be, both of which came out the other end.

3.) Falls into a rock face without Aura, most likely breaking bones in the shoulder and chest area.

4.) Falls into a very cold river that has a current with two stab wounds and broken bones with no Aura.

Conclusion: That’s a confirmed kill.
