Frank breaks down Peacemaker Season 2, Episode 6, "Ignorance Is Chris," and why the "better world" finally shows its cracks. From the diner photo that warps, to Harcourt and Chris opening up in an interrogation room, to Vigilante meeting his Earth X counterpart, this episode clicks into place. We also hit Rick Flag Sr.'s prison visit with Lex Luthor, the Sons of Liberty twist, and the hallway tells that confirm where we are. It is a tense, funny, uneasy chapter that sets up a high-stakes sprint to the finale.

The episode earns its dread by letting small details stack until the Earth X truth can no longer be ignored.
Vigilante meeting himself is both the funniest stretch and honest character work that reframes his bravado.
The Harcourt and Chris scene gives the alt-world twist emotional weight and nudges their relationship into something healthier.
Rick Flag Sr. and Lex Luthor open the door to wider DCU stakes without hijacking the episode.
Adebayo's street sequence and the desk flag reveal are the gut checks that make the cut to black land.
"Hello, Earth X, mind the flags."
"One got out! It's a black."
"This is your perfect world."
