The Cape S01E08

Episode 08 - The Lich 2 (21/02/2011)..

Dana becomes involved in The Cape's world when Orwell is kidnapped by The Lich. A victim of Conrad Chandler's strong serum, Orwell is incapacitated, reliving her past between moments of reality and fiction. As Orwell fights physiological and mental effects of the drug, The Cape, Max, and Rollo must use Dana's legal connections to find her by finding The Lich.

The Cape follows a former cop, Vince Faraday (David Lyons), who resigns from the force to take on the criminal mastermind, Chess (Peter Frain). Vince unwittingly signs up for a security force run by Chess' alter-ego Peter Fleming. So he can "disappear" as a supervillain, Fleming frames Vince to make the police believe that he is Chess. Seemingly killed, Vince is taken in by the Circus of Crime, run by owner Max Malini (Keith David). Still believing that Vince is Chess, Max trains him in martial arts and how to use a black cloth as a weapon. Vince vows to fight crime and seek revenge against Chess. Since he can't return to his wife Dana (Jennifer Ferrin) and son Trip (Ryan Wynott), without putting them at risk, Vince takes on the identity of his son's favorite comic book hero, The Cape. Aiding him in his struggle is a mysterious blogger, Orwell (Summer Glau).
