Invincible Season 4 Episode 6: The war Rages.

Invincible Really said: You will not breathe again, and then meant it.

Conquest does not exist in this episode, even as the end of the episode comes along and the camera zooms in menacingly at what is supposed to be his grave, its just a fake out, Nice one Prime Video.

But let's talk about what is actually going on in the episode shall we?

After last weeks banger, Invincible is completely knocked out and needs to heal, and in his current condition he cannot be moved because if they are caught not only will he be in danger but he will be a dead weight and they might loose three of their biggest assets.

While if they are successfully able to move him he might heal quicker, this is the safer option that he heals slowly but surely, because Three Viltrumites on the side of the Coalition is a huge boon.

I say this because even in their absence the coalition is able to push back the Viltrumites in multiple planets, thanks in no small part to all the weaknesses that Omni Man and Allen found for them to Exploit, speaking of Allen, he is still stuck with Zoe in the Viltrumite War ship and they are engrossed in a game, and while I would have very much liked to see them finish their game, I am happy that they chose to escape and be saved by space Racer.

Don't worry Allen and Zoe, you will get your chance to bond later.

But in the mean time Omni and Oliver have a lot of time to bond as Mark heals from his injuries, And we see the real reason why Oliver is so angry.

As a father trying to do better it is very apparent that my boy Omni has a lot to learn, when telling your ex wife that your next wife was a mistake, please make sure that the child you had with that wife isn't around.

And once again Oliver is the one making sensible takes about not killing other beings unless necessary.

But as the war continues, Thragg becomes desperate, and we see that he still carries the damaged skull of Argall, and even as Invincible and Oliver fly through the War Ship to destroy it, that is the one thing he saves.

In his desperation he decides to attack Talescria directly, knowing full well that this will reveal the spy that has been a boon to them for years now.

So high is the Desire to kill the "Betrayer" And I get it.

But Thragg forgets.

One should beware the Old man in the profession where people die Young.

And as well, when sending your soldiers undercover to other places, make sure that they don't form emotional attachments to other Ideas.

And if they do, be careful not to trap them next to other potential threats, in fact actually, just maybe don't run an oligarchical strength based dictatorship full of people bred through eugenics and social Darwinism.

Because too much can go wrong, most of all one of your own becoming a Greek Philosopher and killing your king just to lead the biggest opposition to your Regime, because if that happens, you will probably get struck in the face by Socrates, and Struck hard enough to loose all thirty two of your teeth.

And then once your spy is revealed, no matter how cunning he was, even if he used another's console to let you in, he will tell Socrates your plan and then Socrates will come and do to you what you planned to do to him.

So what have we learnt kids.

No strength based autocratic empires.
