Let's Break Down the Watchmen Premiere
is in that same vein. It's not going to be a cut and dry story about good, evil, heroes and villains.The premiere began in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1921 with the KKK attacking black residents. A young boy is placed in the care of fleeing residents with a note:"Watch Over This Boy." His travel companions don't survive, but he does, as does a baby…and the show circles back to that later.
In present day—2019—the events of the Watchmen comic series happened. Doctor Manhattan is on Mars. Robert Redford is president. The US won the Vietnam war and the country became a state. Squids rain from the sky. Oklahoma police wear masks, their identities hidden from the public following an attack.
A routine traffic stop by a masked officer ended in gunfire—he had stopped a Seventh Kavalry member—and the police force's drive to apprehend the perp was the main driving force of the episode. Back to the masked officers—superheroes were outlawed, but there's Regina King as Angela Abar aka Sister Night. King kicked major, major, major butt in the premiere. She explained that she used to be a police officer, but was injured in the line of duty, so she retired and planned to open a bakery…but her bakery isn't open yet. It's a front for her police work.
The episode ended with the officer from the beginning waking up, and Chief Crawford going to see him...but he never made it. Instead, he was ambushed and hanged. Angela received a mysterious call at her home, somebody claimed to know who she was and that they had something to show her, so she made her way to the designated point and found Chief Crawford swinging from a tree and an elderly man she previously had a run in with. In his lap? The same note from 1921.
