'Black Lightning' Season 3 Episode 7 sneak peek and stills tease Gambi and Lynn's plan to infiltrate A.S.A and meeting with Painkiller

The rest of the family doesn't know about Lynn's growing addiction to Green Light and she is certainly not going to want that particular truth to come to light, now or ever.

While everyone else in Freeland, including Jefferson Pierce / Black Lightning (Cress Williams), spends their time alternating between their own personal drama and fighting the A.S.A, there's thankfully still one person who has his priorities straight: Peter Gambi (James Remar). In 'Black Lightning' Season 3 Episode 7, Gambi has a plan to get ahead of the A.S.A's plans but unfortunately, it requires the help of Dr Lynn Stewart (Christine Adams).

In a sneak peek from the episode released online on November 25 by The CW, we see Gambi asking Lynn to sneak a device into the Pit so that he can hack the A.S.A's mainframe. It's a risky mission and Lynn is clearly hesitant about the whole thing.

At the moment, Lynn and Jefferson aren't exactly on the best of terms, but she does realize that Gambi's plan could help save her daughters from the A.S.A. Despite everything that's happened between her and Jefferson, protecting their daughters is still priority number one for both of them. 



 

Of course, once Lynn and Gambi manage to break into the Pit, there's no telling what secrets they may unearth. Based on promotional stills from the episode, Lynn and Gambi are going to run into the resurrected Khalil Payne / Painkiller (Jordan Calloway).

Considering Painkiller's sadistic nature, there's a very good chance that he may try to torture or kill either Lynn or Gambi. But then again, he is a very unpredictable person so there's always the slim chance that he might just spare their lives, even if it's just to see what they would do with the information they have on the A.S.A.

As deadly as Painkiller is, he's not the secret that Lynn will be most anxious to protect. Right now, the rest of the family doesn't know about her growing addiction to Green Light and Lynn is certainly not going to want that particular truth to come to light, now or ever.

'Black Lightning' Season 3 Episode 7 will air on The CW on November 25.
