'Cloak and Dagger': Before season 2 premieres, here's a look at where we left Tandy and Tyrone
'Cloak and Dagger' season 2 is set to premiere April 4, but before that, let's take a look at where we left Tandy Bowen (Olivia Holt) and Tyrone Johnson (Aubrey Joseph) in season 1. The two lead characters, who play the parts of Dagger and Cloak respectively start off as teenagers who are battling childhood drama, adolescence and self-doubt all at once.
As the show progresses, we learn about Tandy's past, her father's role in the Roxxon drilling and how that adversely affected her mother who was addicted to drugs. We also learn more about Tyrone's past, including how his actions led to the death of his brother when he was a kid. Tyrone and Tandy's childhood trauma also connects the two of them in a strange way. The two come in contact with an unknown energy force when a rig falls apart and that is the beginning of Cloak and Dagger.
Through the 10 episodes of season 1, we see Tyrone and Tandy struggle through their new found power and later their attraction for each other. The unknown force that they came in contact with as kids is the source of their powers, which is heightened when they come in contact with each other and also how the two realize about their powers in the first place.
Tandy deals with her personal mess while trying to unravel the secrets of Roxxon organization, which was also the organization where her father was employed. She recalls her father's last conversation against stopping the rig project and her suspicions grow further. With the help of Tyrone, who is investigating, Connors (JD Evermore) - the cop behind his brother's death. The different arcs came together in the finale with a punch.
In the finale episode, Tandy and Tyrone come to know about being the Divine Pairing - which foretells that either of them must die to save New Orleans. The two, together, manage to save New Orleans without giving up their lives. They save Tandy's mother Melissa Bowen (Andrea Roth), and also absorb all the leaked energy from the core of Roxxon's rig, which was infecting the people. Connors is absorbed into the Darkforce after killing Brigid O'Reilly (Emma Lahana), the officer who helped Tandy and Tyrone reach the core of the rig in the first place.
Tyrone is now wanted by the police, so he moves into Melissa's church, while Tandy moves in with her mother. O'Reilly who was thought to be dead is now alive and will appear as Mayhem in the upcoming season after absorbing some of the leaked energy.
The upcoming season will also see Tyrone hone his skills as Cloak while Tandy does a combination of ballet with her power as Dagger, both of which will be interesting to watch. They will also have a new enemy - thugs who are a part of a human trafficking ring as the two teenagers will also have to face their ex-partner O'Reilly, who has turned into a killing machine.
