‘Into the Badlands’ season 2’s episode 5, titled “Monkey Leaps Through Mist," is set to follow Sunny and Bajie as they enlist the help from an unlikely source and may pay the price. Meanwhile, Daniel Wu talked about his character’s journey and challenges in the new season.
The synopsis for “Monkey Leaps Through Mist” posted on TV Guide reads, “Sunny (Daniel Wu) and Bajie (Nick Frost) get help from an unlikely source, but it comes with a price. Meanwhile, the Widow (Emily Beecham) considers a risky gambit; and MK (Aramis Knight) enacts a dangerous plan.”
In the previous episode, titled "Palm of the Iron Fox," Quinn (Marton Csokas) managed to get revenge on his traitorous son Ryder (Oliver Stark). However, Ryder’s death may bring in untoward consequences for the characters of AMC’s action-series. The upcoming episode will shift its focus back on the show’s main protagonist Sunny as he seeks to enlist help from an unlikely source together with Bajie, the schemer with questionable morals who somehow finds himself allied with Sunny.
The two have been evading some bounty hunters as well as The Engineer (Stephen Walter). According to Christian Post, it seems that the two are also being hunted down by the legendary Clipper Regent, Moon (Sherman Augustus). It is possible that Moon survived the battle despite losing his hand.
Daniel Wu talked about his character’s journey in season 2 during an interview with Den of Geek. He said, “It's all basically saying that he can't really escape the world he's trying to escape… No matter how hard you try to make this sort of utopian family, it's just not gonna happen. It's in his destiny to be a killer.”
The 42-year old American actor revealed that his character, Sunny, will be different from the man from season 1. Wu said, “He’s downtrodden, depressed… He’s trying to find the will to not only survive, but get back into the Badlands to his wife and baby. That’s the driving motivation pushing through all of this stuff.”
‘Into the Badlands’ season 2’s episode 5, titled “Monkey Leaps Through Mist," is scheduled to air on AMC on April 16, 2017. It will be followed by episode 6, titled "Leopard Stalks in Snow,” scheduled to be released on April 23.
