This week’s episode of DC’s Stargirl is a rollercoaster of emotional ups and downs, ending in a tear-jerking climax. Significant characters are dead, and someone sinister is back.
Things are not looking good for our superheroes. Will the next episode turn the tide towards them? Let’s try to find that out!
Before reading the synopsis, watch the promo of episode 11 below:
1. Episode 11 Speculation/Synopsis
Episode 10’s climax is a real tear-jerker. They kill off the Crocks after devoting an entire episode to showing how good they are!
So, Artemis will have to recover from the death of her parents in three episodes. Moments like these compel me to wonder why Stargirl didn’t get renewed for a fourth season.
Stargirl does have a history of not properly dealing with the aftermath of character deaths. It has been three seasons with Yolanda’s family issue, and even that hasn’t gotten a proper closure!
I hope episode 11 shows us the aftermath of her parent’s death in Artemis’ life.
Now coming to the primary concern of episode 11:
Icicle’s back.
Courtney
These two words sum up the entire 22-second trailer. The icy touch of the dreaded Jordan Mahkent, aka, Icicle, is back.
In the finale of season 1, Icicle gets shattered into a million pieces when Mike slams Justin’s truck into him. This time he will be hell-bent on taking his revenge on our superheroes.
So, is he the black hooded figure responsible for spying on Blue Valley? While many seem to have already made him the main antagonist of season 3, I have some doubts.
Stargirl has wrong-footed us in the past, and episode 10’s climax could be one of those maneuvers.
I believe there is a definite connection between Jordan and Ultra Humanite, and the entire team might unite to defeat them in the season finale, including the Mahkents. But can the real spy be someone else altogether? Perhaps Per Degaton?
Cameron and Courtney’s fight was a sad one in this week’s episode. Cameron is hell-bent on knowing the name of his father’s killer. Courtney knows that if she reveals Mike’s name, Cameron will surely beat him to a pulp. So, she takes the blame on herself.
Hopefully, Cameron will be able to see his father for the monster he truly is and join Courtney in the fight.
Lastly, the trailer shows Starman gearing up to face Icicle. Defeating the Icicle and Ultra Humanite will be a behemoth task for everyone. This can be the final battle in the season finale.
Hopefully, they will be able to sum everything up in the last three episodes. Every character must have a proper closure before finally drawing the curtains!

Meanwhile, Cameroon tries to find out about his father’s killer from Courtney. Courtney covers up for Mike and takes the blame on herself. It starts a rift between the two, and Cameroon asks her not to talk to him again.
Mike and Jakeem get caught in a net trap laid by Cindy. They tell her about the gorilla-like creature and later to Pat and Sylvester. All of them recognize it as the infamous Ultra Humanite.
