Star City - S1E7 - Plow Deep

Hey Bobs! We're back with Star City Season 1, Episode 7 — "Plow Deep" — and this one hit different than we expected.

After the gut-punch of Episode 6, Donnie and Brian both landed on an 8. The show pulls off a major time jump to 1971 and a soft reset that initially felt jarring… but ultimately sets up some powerful new arcs. We finally get to see Belikova step back into her element as she's sent on a high-stakes mission, while Sergei finds himself stuck in the "nerd pit" and Raskova's position grows more precarious by the day.

We break down the emotional weight of Belikova's storyline, the shifting power dynamics at Star City, Irina's increasingly dangerous game, and that final scene that left us both stunned (and a little worried about how it affects Episode 6). Plus: listener mail and our honest thoughts on whether this reset works.
