RUNAWAYS: S**t's About To Get Really Real In The New Promo & Photos For Season 1, Episode 7: "Refraction"
Marvel's Runaways continues to surprise and next week, the kids will be forced to face the music when they find themselves at an open house with their evil parents. Come check out the new promo now!
After the events of today's episode, which featured a fun Stan Lee cameo, Alex (Rhenzy Feliz) & Nico (Lyrica Okano) securing some evidence that could put their parents away for life, and a couple major revelations for Karolina (Virginia Gardner), next week's hour will continue to up the ante as the Runaways and the Pride suddenly find themselves in close proximity to one another at Atlas' open house.
Outside of discovering that she could fly, today's episode also confirmed Karolina's feelings towards Nico and it sounds like things are going to get really complicated starting next week. Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Gardner spoke on Karolina's mostly comic-accurate arc and her evolution throughout the course of this first season. "I think for Karolina, she doesn’t realize that’s how she feels at the beginning of this because the six of them have all lost touch, and we reconnect, and then I meet Destiny, the runaway in the pilot, and she says some stuff about running awa, and having freedom and rebelling that plants something in me that’s like, “Oh, maybe I can try to be my own person now and not just please my parents.” Then, as time goes on, I experiment with Chase a little bit, and I’m kind of like, “Oh, that didn’t really make me happy, and I’ve always been really drawn to Nico,” and then shortly after that, I realize like, “Oh, Chase isn’t what I want. Nico is who I want, and I’m in love with Nico, and I’m not afraid to honor that now.”
However, it doesn't seem like it'll be all smooth-sailing for a potential Karolina & Niko relationship as co-star Okano teases multiple possible love triangles, amongst other things. "Nico was very much apart from all of her other friends, more so because she was the one who was very keen on isolating herself from the others. But then Alex made himself available to her from the very beginning, and she’s always had a crush on Alex, and Alex has always had a crush on Nico. So it’s very convenient, they care for each other a lot. But then something happens which causes Nico to sort of distrust Alex once again, and that is when Karolina pops up and is like, “Hey, girl, this is how I be feeling, and do you feel the same way?” And I’m like, “I don’t know, but let’s play around with this.”
