Im pleased to announce that this week I got my wish or some of it, anyway.
It only takes this episode a few minutes to start dropping tantalizing hints about the characters backstories.
Its none other than Tobias, who apparently has some kind of deal with the tailor.

In exchange for Gambi keeping mum about Tobias (even from Jefferson!
), the albino stays away from him.
So he leaves without any violence.
Too many have died in real life becausepeople assumed they were exactly that.
Black Lightning soon finds himself face to face with just such a white person.
Now whimpering, the man reveals his contact: Joey Toledo.
Jefferson knows the name.
After all, Jefferson Pierce is not a young man anymore.
Jefferson is determined to follow it.
She takes him to see his oldest enemy their father, Eldridge.
A flashback scene indicates what Tobias childhood was like.
Something tells me that serum comes with some enhanced strength too.
That serum was apparently a source of great interest to Jeffersons father, Alvin Pierce.
Anissa comes across that surprising fact while scouring conspiracy sites for any information about her developing superpowers.
One conspiracy theorist even compares the research/experimentation involved to both the Tuskegee experiments and the Flint water crisis.
Unfortunately, after the articles appeared, Alvin was murdered.
I cant wait for them to meet again.
