As Above, So Below
Shown 16 Sep 21
The young Robert Langdon, before he looked like Tom Hanks, was a lecturer at Harvard University. His speciality, symbology, seems to be about bashing certain symbols associated with young male blue-collar caucasian-Americans. He ends his lecture with an anti-free speech tirade, which is ironic because he may be aiming it at American Nationalists but it might also be called Islamophobic if aimed at Muslims. And this storyline involves the Islamic world …
We get a flashback of how Langdon met his female love interest. She was the daughter of his mentor (Eddie Izzard - Mystery Men ), who is more than a little reminiscent of his character in the Hannibal TV show - which is ironic as their fates seem similar as the story unfolds. In contrast, the daughter and her brother come across as Summer and Morty from Rick and Morty . Somehow they accept Langdon as an adopted member of their family.
Langdon is summoned to the Smithsonian Institute in Washington DC. His mentor has been kidnapped, and the only way to save him is to do a quest on the kidnapper's behalf. A security guard (Rick Gonzalez - Arrow ) helps out.
The kidnapper wants Langdon to find a mcguffin hidden by the Masonic order in a boobytrapped chamber like something out of the National Treasure series.

Diophantine Pseudonym
Shown 21 Oct 21

The Assassin is in the custody of Leviathan. There are still a few episodes to go, so he will probably escape. In fact, the old he-got-captured-on-purpose trope (so popular since The Dark Knight ) might even be used.
We get a series of flashbacks of the last couple of years, showing the Assassin's recruitment and indoctrination. This certainly fleshes him out as a character. It also fleshes out Langdon's backstory with his love interest.

Resonance

The Assassin has the love interest as a damsel in distress, and holds her hostage until Langdon hands over her father. This is all a lot of National Treasure hoakum, making the founding myths of the USA seem a lot more awesome than they really are.
The episode ties up this Season's story threads. However, it also includes an ending scene that leaves things open for a second Season.
