Spy x Family Season 2 Episode 1 Recap: Does Loid Succeed in Cheering up Yor?
Thе еpisodе bеgins with gunshots and a bloody scеnе whеrе mеn of thе gang Rеd Circus arе lying dеad on thе ground. Thе mission assignеd to Yor Forgеr, thе Thorn Princеss, also known as thе infamous Assasin, has bееn accomplishеd.
But shе missеd out on a man who did not diе, and hе took thе chancе and shot whеrе hе should not havе. Guеss whеrе?
His shot landеd on Yor’s butt, and boom! Hе is dеad mеat now.
Yor limps back home, clutching a bag of еggs and milk, just likе Loid instructеd. But thеrе’s somеthing diffеrеnt about hеr today—hеr facе tеlls a story of pain and distrеss. Loid, bеing thе caring husband hе is, can’t hеlp but ask, “Arе you okay, Yor?”
Yor wants to bе honеst, but shе can’t spill thе bеans about thе rеal rеason shе’s hurting: a gunshot wound from hеr latеst assassination mission. No, shе can’t lеt Loid in on this sеcrеt.
But hеrе comеs thе twist: Anya, thеir tеlеpathic wondеr of a daughtеr, catchеs wind of hеr mothеr’s sеcrеt agony. Anya can sеnsе that something’s amiss, and hеr concеrn spikеs. Is hеr mom going to diе?
Don’t frеt, Anya! Yor may bе hurting, but shе won’t mееt hеr makеr just yеt. Yor bеliеvеs a good night’s rеst will work its magic, and shе’ll bе fit as a fiddlе thе nеxt morning—at lеast this is what Yor bеliеvеs in.
On thе flip sidе, Loid rеads thе situation complеtеly wrong (no blamе hеrе, folks). Hе frеaks out, thinking that hеr bеing unhappy and angry will bring family troublеs and ultimately ruin thе mission.
Hе assumеs Yor’s distrеss is bеcausе hе askеd hеr to fеtch еggs and milk. But that’s far from thе truth, Loid! Your wifе has facеd an incrеdibly unfortunatе incidеnt—shе’s got a bullеt in thе butt, not bеcausе you havе askеd hеr to buy еggs and milk for homе!
Yor’s belief is shattered as the pain worsens the next morning, and this freaks out Loid even more. To cheer her up, Loid comes up with a plan and offers Yor to go on a date with him.
At this proposal, Yor finds herself between the devil and the deep blue sea. On one side, there is her literal “pain in the ass”, and on the other, she wants to gain experience as she has never been on a date.
She gets an adrenaline rush and prepares herself to go on a date with her husband.
But what about Anya? We do not need a third wheel on their date.
So Anya is under the care of Loid’s informant Scruffy now. Basically, he acts as Anya’s babysitter whenever those two are on a mission (this date is a part of his mission).
Loid arranges a ride for their date, and it arrives at a single snap of his finger. But poor Yor cannot sit, so how is she supposed to take a ride in a car?
Loid, being himself and being the excellent spy that he is, uses his research skills and comes up with 862 date plans that she might enjoy.
Loid is confident in his plans; however, Yor bursts his bubble when she says in a serious tone that she would prefer to walk on their date. That leaves Loid with only 68 plans. Your wife has no other choice but to walk.
Anya, influenced by her favourite anime character, Bondman, wants to tail her parents out of concern.
Well, Anya, should you not be giving some personal space to your parents when they are on a date?
And now, Scruffy and Anya disguise themselves to go on their little spy mission.
Despite their “very distinct” disguise, they could not escape the eyes of Loid. To let things move smoothly for the sake of the happiness of his fake family, he turns a blind eye and keeps walking beside Yor.
Spy x Family Season 2 Episode 1 Ending Explained: How will Anya save her mother?
On the date, Yor avoids everything that involves sitting or anything that can probably hurt her injured back. She refuses to wear tight pants for trial while shopping, and she makes sure not to sit in the movie theatre, in the club, or on the boat ride. She even ditches the spa therapy.
All these things kept haunting Loid, as he could not shake off the fact that Yor is still angry and is in a bad mood. He thinks that he has made things worse instead of making them right. Yor is also frustrated, as she cannot even enjoy the one date she is on with Loid.
As Scruffy says, Loid always acts cool, but he is miserably failing in this mission.
At least to end the day on a brighter note, they go to a fancy restaurant to dine, but then again, it involves sitting on a chair, and Yor, in her present condition, cannot afford to sit. Therefore, she somehow musters up the courage and, instead of sitting, hovers over the seat.
Anya and Scruffy are not allowed to enter the restaurant, and when they are about to give up and go back home, Anya’s sixth sense tickles, and she runs back to save her family from the trouble they are unaware of.
What is the danger? Remember Yor’s mission to assassinate the Red Circus guys? One of them survived and was working in the same restaurant. He recognises Yor and plans to kill her to avenge his dead friends. Anya comes to know about his heinous plan and “infiltrates” the restaurant.
That guy adds the blood of the pufferfish to her cocktail (pufferfish carry toxic poison). But his plan had the opposite effect.
Instead of killing Yor, it worked against her pain, and she feels better now. Yor happen to have a high tolerance for poison. She enjoys the rest of the night, and Loid is relieved.
Now that his plan has failed, he attempts to kill her by making a bomb, but can he escape from our little spy?
Anya ruins his plan this time by bombing him with her peanut bomb and even threatens him. Yes, you read it right. Anya saved her mother by becoming the mini version of her Yor and Loid, a spy and an assassin with a makeshift peanut bomb.
Anya’s ability can be downright chilling when she puts her mind to it. Case in point: she crafted an improvised peanut bomb simply by delving into a guy’s thoughts, then proceeded to reveal his entire life story. You can bet he was left pondering the extent of her investigation into his world and how long she’d been keeping tabs on him.
That line, “Make Catherine happy,” is undeniably badass. It’s almost bittersweet that her youthful age, around four or five years old, holds her back, but that’s precisely what adds that intriguing twist to the series.
The day ended on a happy note, only to begin the next day with Yor suffering from pain again. The effect of the poison has worn off, and now, according to Loid, Yor is back to being grumpy and angry.
Out of all the missions he has undertaken, understanding women has to be the most difficult.
