Umbrella Academy Season 3 Episode 2 Podcast "Worlds Biggest Ball of Twine" Details

Episode Directed by Cheryl Dunye

Teleplay for this episode written by Jesse McKeown

With Marcus their Number One missing, the Sparrows take a hostage in retaliation, as Luther is kidnapped by the Sparrow siblings and held captive. While captive, Luther learns more about the Sparrows and bonds with their Number Five, Sloane.

After being released by the Sparrows, along with a complimentary tote bag, Luther drifts back up to Sloane, where he spends the night. Lila attempts to head to Berlin and leave the city, but discovers that her Commission briefcase no longer works. Trying to source a new briefcase, Lila mimics Fei's powers on the roof of the Sparrow Academy to steal the Umbrella's briefcase.

Meanwhile, Diego and Stan bond after they fight with the Sparrow Number Four, Alphonso, and Number Six, Jayme. After learning of Sissy's death in 1989, Vanya takes lessons from her previous relationship to escape her box, as she reveals to his siblings that he, Viktor, is transgender. Viktor’s siblings accept him with open arms.

Allison travels home and makes a painful discovery, finding that Claire, her daughter, does not exist in this new timeline, sending her spiraling with grief and rage. As Viktor pulls Alisson out of her despair, both head to the handoff where Marcus was meant to give them the briefcase, but he doesn’t show. Unbeknownst to them, they are stalked by Lester.

Klaus takes Five on an eye-opening road trip, to find Klaus' birth mother at an Amish community, but discovers his mother, along with all the mothers of the Umbrella siblings, died before they were ever born in this timeline, creating a grandfather paradox.

All the while, further shockwaves from the growing Kugelblitz cause more waves of objects, humans, and animals to disappear.
