    [Here](https://youtu.be/SZ5ErYc5KZA?t=64) is when Viktor first introduces himself. Unfortunately, this clip doesn’t keep it in, but Five immediately has a similar reaction of acceptance and still gets mad at Viktor because he just messed up. Feels like a classic good sibling move, accept them for who they are, and immediately get mad at their actions anyway lol.

    The whole show is about accepting people for who they are, so it’s not out of character for everyone in the show to be accepting. Usually, they have to accept the fact that one of their siblings just did something awful, but this time it was a cakewalk to just say “cool, still love you” and get back to the story.

    The whole thing has bee hugely accepting of Elliot / Viktor

    Kinda beautiful, now can we apply this example into the real world, to just accept our trans folks the same way, as who they are ?

    As usual Luther is the sweetest of the bunch, the gentle giant. I think that he thought that they should make (or that Viktor deserved) a “birthday” party or something. Which is not a bad idea, but I think that shortly after that scene they get involved in another fight with the Sparrow Academy?

    Anyhow, congrats to them for introducing Page’s transition in such a natural way, and even with some preparation in the plot lines in the last season.

    I really loved Luther this season. This scene just further solidified that sentiment. Also, >!His relationship with Sloane, despite its breakneck pace, was such a breath of relief from all of the previous seasons’ scenes of Luther pining over Allison.!<

    Should I try this series? What kind of show is it? I thought it was about a secret society of young assassins or something.

    Really great way of dealing with the change and showing support for Elliot, however I’ve always thought that haircut is awful!

  • Azrael-XIII

    The first scene is exactly how I was hoping they address it. Essentially “Oh you’re a dude now, that’s cool. Happy for you.” and move on with the story.

    Most interestingly though, Vanya is a masculine Russian name, technically they didn’t have to go toward Viktor, and it could been unintentional foreshadowing.

    Eithier way is good tho.

    I think it was well done. But, was it necessary? Could Elliott Page not continue playing a female character that he has already played for two seasons?

    How is the new season? I’m kinda surprised I didn’t hear anything about it until I saw this post, I thought it hasn’t released yet

    “Do you feel loved?” “Yea” “Good because you are”

    This was such a wholesome moment, and Luther standing there with his big dorky smile and then Viktor having to practically look straight up at him with that big smile. It was so sweet.

    Give the boys some tiny sandwiches!
