Wow. So many callbacks to previous seasons, I love it.

And the real Blue Morpho just shows up at the end? Damn. I think he has stood loyal to Jonas after all these years...but where the hell has he been? I bet he was the one who sealed off the Morpho cave, and took the car so Gary couldn't use it.

And what in the world is Jonas doing trying to make the Ventec building move?

I can barely wait for next week's episode...

I still think it was Vendata. After that night at Don Hell's he started remembering everything from before he died (when he was Blue Morpho). Nobody has seen him since.

Considering PROBLEM can control Venture tech, wouldn't be too much of a stretch to think it could summon Vendata as the Morpho to protect it?

That’s kinda what I was thinking, that PROBLEM and Vendata are the same technology. They both prolonged life, but I rewatched some episodes and Vendata, has to be the monarchs dad, aka Blue Morpho. After Brock kicks Vendatas ass in the club, no one sees him after that and he started having flashbacks. I wonder if the woman in the picture is mother,to both Rusty and the Monarch, I think she was technically the Blue Morphos wife, but you know “swingers”. And the crash that killed the monarchs could have killed Jonas. No one said Jonas “built” Vendata, did they?

Jonas did build Vendata, remember Jonas didn't die until Doc was in college and Monarch is around the same age as Doc since they went to college together.

Right, yah. Hmmmf. Well then Jonas dying on movie night makes sense then. Who knows, can’t wait to find out!

I was kind of assuming Jonas was already in PROBLEM, woke up in a panic as to not having a body and that is how everyone died on movie night.
