7 | The Young and the Restless made a whole thing of bringing back Big Bad Cameron after 20 years, only to begin his reign of terror with the murder of… Faith’s cat?

8 | When Gotham Knights’ Jane Doe revealed who Duela’s real father is, were you waiting for it to be maybe be exposed as some sort of ploy?

9 | When Superman & Lois’ Sarah complained that the diner waitress uniform looked like it was from the 1950s, was your first thought, “Riverdale crossover!!!”? Speaking of….
