‘The Strain’ Recap: S3E6 ‘The Battle of Central Park’

The Attack On The Nest And The Aftermath

As stated before, the underground atmosphere was claustrophobic with Strigoi lurking around every corner. Luckily for the good guys, Fet was leading the charge. Even luckier for him, he had his own “Captain America” with him. Turns out the badass Captain Rogers he had with him was the woman he slept with a few episodes ago. Not only do the two have sexual chemistry, they also work well on the battlefield. As the rest of the soldiers get picked off, the two of them each have each other backs and are able to dispatch the Strigoi they come across.

After they connect with Gus, it’s an all-out battle as they get cornered by the Strigoi. Captain Rogers and Gus fend them off from all angles while Fet prepares the silver bomb for the nest. In the last minute, he drops the bomb on them and seemingly kills all the remaining Strigoi. It looks as though it’s time to break out the champagne!

Little do they know, that was but a small drop in the ocean as Central Park becomes overrun with them and easily dispatch many police officers that were holding the perimeter. Turns out the Eichhorst and The Master knew of their plan and made sure that Fet would be delayed until dark when they could launch out an attack on the NYPD.
