VAN HELSING – Episodes 5.4 & 5.5 – SPOILERS
In “State of the Union” (Episode 5.4) Doc (Rukiya Bernard) is able to cure Axel and Julius of the effects of the orange chemical cloud they ran into at the end of Season Four. (Doc created a substance that kills daywalkers but the army decided to deploy it before testing was complete, and quickly found out that it kills both daywalkers and humans (except when it turns certain vampires into giant, nearly invulnerable mutants). Julius (Aleks Paunovic) refers to the stuff as Agent Orange, so it probably is an intended historical reference to that. Axel tells Doc that Jolene (Caroline Cave) is still alive and that he knows where she is. Doc immediately retires from the war against vampires (after providing the boys with bullets coated with the orange stuff) and sends them on their way. Then she heads directly to the appropriately named Loveland (about 15 miles to the South) where she reunites with Jolene, whom she met in Episode 2.2, but hadn’t seen since Episode 3.9. Doc and Jolene are the second couple on VAN HELSING to survive The Rising. The first was Flesh (Vincent Gale) and his wife Jennifer (Holly Elissa), who reunited in Episode 4.6.
