I've struggled with this last season on and off. Some aspects of the show have been really unengaging. But the last few eps have drawn me back in.

I just started watching the most recent episode though, and the first scene brought tomind a conversation I had with Foots about the classic dark lord/super villain errors that Dahrk keeps making - in this first scene, he decides not to kill his nemesis and constant thorn in his side, because he wants him to be alive long enough to suffer a terrible death when the world burns, as per his genius master villain plan. Does he lock him up in a deep dungeon, or chain him to a wall? No....he throws him about a bit, proving he could easily kill him then causes a cave in and leaves without ensuring he is trapped.

How many times is he going to not kill his enemy, in order to show how insignificant he is /make him suffer later? This strategy has not been very successful in the past.
