Even with only two episodes remaining, we're not that much closer to learning what David Haller's (Dan Stevens) true intentions are and what he plans on doing - or how far he's willing to go - to defeat the dreaded Shadow King (Navid Negahban).

However, based on this latest episode preview, it does seem like next week's penultimate hour of season two will give us a few answers.

Watch the new promo for "Chapter 18" below:



Chapter 18

209 6/5/2018 10 PM ET/PT

Reunion, ruination and rage.

Written by Noah Hawley & Nathaniel Halpern; directed by Dana Gonzales


Legion, based on the Marvel Comics by Chris Claremont and Bill Sienkiewicz, is the story of David Haller (Dan Stevens) – a troubled young man who may be more than human.

Diagnosed as schizophrenic as a child, David has been in and out of psychiatric hospitals for years. Now in his early 30s and institutionalized once again, David loses himself in the rhythm of the structured regimen of life in the hospital: breakfast, lunch, dinner, therapy, medications, sleep. David spends the rest of his time in companionable silence alongside his chatterbox friend Lenny (Aubrey Plaza), a fellow patient whose life-long drug and alcohol addiction has done nothing to quell her boundless optimism that her luck is about to change. The pleasant numbness of David’s routine is completely upended with the arrival of a beautiful and troubled new patient named Syd (Rachel Keller). Inexplicably drawn to one another, David and Syd share a startling encounter, after which he must confront the shocking possibility that the voices he hears and the visions he sees are the result of him being a mutant.

A haunted man, David escapes from the hospital and seeks shelter with his sister Amy (Katie Aselton). But Amy’s concern for her brother is trumped by her desire to protect the picture perfect suburban life she’s built for herself. Eventually, Syd guides David to Melanie Bird (Jean Smart), a nurturing but demanding therapist with a sharp mind and unconventional methods. She and her team of specialists – Ptonomy (Jeremie Harris), Kerry (Amber Midthunder) and Cary (Bill Irwin) – open David’s eyes to an extraordinary new world of possibilities.

This show started out so amazing but once the newness wore off it’s just become boring. Even going back and watching some of the highs of first season have become a bit dull. Almost done with 2 seaons and I feel like there’s been no real character development for anyone

Damn, we didn't even see the lead character in the last ep! :P

But only what David had planned with the rest of his gang, in order to trick the Shadow King he couldn't reveal all the plot to his friends, so he just shared the important bits to the right people, what Lenny's supposed to do, what Cary is supposed to do etc...
Melanie could ruin the whole thing tho, especially if she's working with Oliver (and she IS), but only if Oliver is REALLY working for the Shadow King (i doubt that), so all is good i think.
