The second episode of Mortal Kombat: Legacy has been released and you can view it right here. It’s a continuation of the events which took place in the first episode, with quite a bit of recapping at the outset for what has been a largely uneventful show so far. And then still not much happens.
Have you ever started a fire using friction? When you’re rubbing the sticks together, there’s a magical moment between the anticipation of succeeding in the task and the point at which you say, “screw it,” and reach for the kerosene.
