Changes: Séance and Sensibility

Revision as of 00:36, 6 February 2020

"You feel the energy in this room? It's like sitting on a keg of dynamite. You see, wakes are notorious soft spots where the supernatural meets the living world."

—John Constantine

"Séance and Sensibility" is the eleventh episode of the fourth season of DC's Legends of Tomorrow, and the sixty-second episode overall. It aired on April 15, 2019.

Synopsis

When Mona discovers that her favorite author, Jane Austen, might be at the epicenter of a magical alert, Mona, Sara, Charlie and Zari find themselves in 1809. With Nate still dealing with family issues, Constantine and Rory perform a séance and receive a message from the other world that rocks Constantine to his core. Meanwhile, Ray and Nora are forced into close quarters.^[src]

Production

Preparation ran from October 10 until October 30, 2018. Shooting ran from October 31 until November 13, 2018, with a break on November 12 for Remembrance Day.^[1]

Trivia

The episode's title is a reference to the Jane Austen novel Sense and Sensibility.
Mona wears a shirt listing her favorite Jane Austen characters, including Elinor and Marianne Dashwood from Sense and Sensibility, Elizabeth and Jane Bennet from Pride and Prejudice, and Emma Woodhouse from Emma.
When Ray, Zari and Sara are leaving the funeral wake, Ray says "Legends assemble", a play on the rallying cry of Marvel's, "Avengers assemble".
Brandon Routh and Nick Zano have revealed that they improvised Ray and Nate's cheek kiss at the funeral wake.^[2]
- Routh also revealed that Courtney Ford improvised Nora knocking over a figurine in Ray's room.^[3]
While singing, Zari mentions fixing the timeline as a cat, saving a cowboy and keeping his hat, taking Salem's breath away, and getting stuck reliving the same day. These are references to adventures she had in "Legends of To-Meow-Meow", "The Good, The Bad and The Cuddly", "Witch Hunt", and "Here I Go Again", respectively.
This is the second episode not to feature Jes Macallan (Ava Sharpe) after being promoted to a series regular.

Goofs

The episode's official synopsis states that the team travels to 1809 to deal with a magical fugitive. In the episode however, they actually travel to 1802 to do this.
When Sanjay asks Zari if she still wants to marry him after knowing that he has 1,000 other wives, Zari's mouth goes from closed, to open, to closed again between shots.
