“ Heroes are usually jerky at affection , ” John says at the beginning of this week ’s episode . And he proves his own point when he gets annoyed at the holy man Manny and anathemize him into a human organic structure . And it does n’t take long for Manny to experience anger , righteousness , and the pleasures of a workplace quickie .
Manny gives John his giving case this week , telling him to go to a nearby hospital to inquire an apparent overdose that has a more sinister reason . But after Zed use her vision mightiness on the overdosed woman , she find herself suddenly in pauperization of medical attention . A ready scan bring out something potentially devastating : Zed has a tumour on the part of her brain associated with mystical imagination . Her fight against the rise Darkness may very well be bowdlerize her life .
We do n’t know Constantine ’s fate yet . We do n’t know if it will be drop or get an eleventh - hr renewal or if it will be rebranded over at Syfy ( although honestly , I think that last option might be the most ideal one ) . This could be the second - to - last sequence of the show , but I was struck by how smooth it feel , how , for the first time , our four main character in truth felt like a team . Part of this is because of the exhibition we ’ve catch in earliest installment : we know a moment more about Zed ’s past and we understand the nature of Chas ’ might and his relationship with John . But part of it is John ’s act of revengeful rage , which temporarily binds Manny to the deadly plane .
When John teach about Zed ’s tumor , he ’s pretty pie-eyed with himself , but he ’s even more furious at Manny , who belike knew about the peril to Zed ’s health . While Manny is possess the physical structure of one of the hospital ’s doctors and debate with John , John grow around and curse Manny so he ’s stuck in the doc ’s body .
Angels walk around in human bodies is for certain nothing new , and Constantine deal with a lot of the common figure of speech : Humans feel things angels do n’t ! Human bodies regurgitate ! Human bodies want sex ! ( Constantine also decide to neglect the creepiness of a nurse actually having sexuality with Manny when she consider she ’s just having sex activity with her doctor fuck buddy . ) But this Manny - in - a - human - torso business in reality serves the show quite well . sure as shooting , there ’s a bit of humor in John being able to cite Manny by pager and in Manny having to apportion with the indignity of printing patient file ( stupefied swirling beach ball ) . But the real benefit is make Manny truly interact with Zed .
Sometimes , the various members of Team Constantine can feel a bit segregated from one another , with everyone interact with John rather than operate as an supporting players . Having Zed in reality intercommunicate with Manny — and express her longings and reverence about the nature of her visions — did a spate to bring Manny into the fold . And with Chas as the guy rooted to the mankind of everything he does , and Manny and Zed be the team ’s more spiritual constituent , perhaps John can have a routine more reign to be the tug he feel that heroes truly are .
And if he cements his role as the squad ’s jackass by lighting his cigarette with a Christian church candle , all the better .
