Vic’s most engaging scenes all season have been with Silas, but their scene on “Evil Patrol” is their best. It’s Vic’s confrontation with his father.

The strongest individual scene of the episode is for once not one with Rita, Laura, or Jane. There are some strong moments on “Evil Patrol,” and while it does set up an exciting final episode, it doesn’t quite come together as a whole the way the rest of the season has. Doom Patrol – Evil Patrol – April Bowlby (Photograph by Bob Mahoney/HBO Max) We just don’t know if it will be as friend or foe. Still, it’s safe to assume that she will be a major focal point of the season finale. Laura’s role in all this is anyone’s guess now that she’s been thrown aside by her would-be ally. Madame Rouge’s plans go off the rails when she is betrayed by The Brain, setting up a final confrontation between The Brain and The Doom Patrol when they make their next attempt to save their Robotman. It’s not just the Doom Patrol who are in a bad spot either.

“Evil Patrol” ends with things literally going up in flames as the gang’s personal issues consume them and derail their mission to save Cliff. It’s the penultimate episode of Season 3 on Doom Patrol Season 3 Episode 9, “Evil Patrol,” and things aren’t looking great for our not so merry band of weirdos.
