Ep 2. And Then He's Gonna Shoot Off...

The second episode of Avenue 5, "And Then He's Gonna Shoot Off...", picks up right where the last one left off. The luxury space cruiser, Avenue 5, is still off course and the crew and passengers are starting to worry. In this episode, we see the tension on board reach new levels as the truth about the situation they're in becomes impossible to ignore.

Despite the best efforts of their captain, Ryan (Hugh Laurie), the Avenue 5 has drifted much further off course than anyone had anticipated. To make matters worse, their communication device has been damaged which means they can't call for help. The captain is desperately trying to come up with a plan to get them back on track, but time is running out quickly.

While Ryan is busy trying to figure out the best path forward, the passengers on board are starting to lose their patience. They've been stuck on the ship for far longer than they ever anticipated, and tensions are starting to run high. A group of passengers led by Herman (Josh Gad) begins to demand answers and solutions, causing even more chaos on board.

As the situation starts to spiral out of control, Ryan must do everything in his power to keep the passengers calm and focused on a solution. But of course, that's easier said than done. One passenger in particular, Spike (Ethan Phillips), is causing trouble left and right. His erratic behavior leads to some misguided attempts to take control of the situation, causing even more alarm and confusion on board.

Meanwhile, the rest of the crew is grappling with their own issues. Chief Engineer Billie (Lenora Crichlow) is trying to keep the ship's systems running smoothly, but it's becoming increasingly difficult without any outside assistance. The rest of the crew is trying to stay on top of the basics, but with tensions running high, it's becoming a struggle to keep everything under control.

As the episode comes to a close, the situation on board Avenue 5 has become even more dire. With Ryan and the crew struggling to keep everything under control, it's clear that they're in for a long and dangerous journey. "And Then He's Gonna Shoot Off..." sets the stage for even more chaos and tension on the luxury space cruiser, leaving viewers anxious to see what will happen next.
