Legion: 25 WTF Moments From Season 1

9. Turning Back The Clock

The entire climax of Chapter 5 certainly belongs on this list for a number of reasons.

After the obvious fact that David was adopted is revealed during a conversation with his sister, Lenny appears yet again to deliver something more. We see her transform back and forth into the various ghosts of David's past; Lenny; her male counterpart, Benny; David's dog, King; the angry boy; and the devil with the yellow eyes in a rather unnerving sequence.

Then, when both Summerland and Division 3 storm the place, the sound goes completely silent, leaving everyone unable to hear each other. When they finally meet in the living room and a fight ensues, Lenny straddles an incapacitated David to get under Syd's skin. All of this results in some sort of a break in David's mind.

Suddenly, we arrive back at Clockworks, which hasn't been seen for some time. All of the members of the gang, plus The Eye, are patients at the facility with Lenny as their doctor. The episode then abruptly ends.
