![]() Based on what wasn't blacked out, it seems that Laurie confessed the truth about how Rorschach died, Doctor Manhattan leaving the planet, and possibly the details about Adrian Veidt's (Jeremy Irons) hoax. Intriguingly, there were several redacted sections of the transcript relating to the whereabouts of Rorschach and the events of 11/2/85. It turns out this was a "gift" from Dreiberg, which he named "Excalibur", and he made it to spite Laurie because Dan jealously suspected she still harbored feelings for her ex, Doctor Manhattan. Her tipping the feds off about MerlinCorp led to a raid on Dreiberg's company, where the FBI recovered the blueprints for the huge blue phallus fans saw Laurie take out of her briefcase in Watchmen. Laurie stressed that she and Nite Owl were "not lovers" - "He wanted kids, I wanted guns", Laurie confessed. In fact, Laurie accepted the Oklahoma assignment because Senator Joe Keene (James Wolk) inferred he would pardon Dreiberg if he becomes the next President of the United States.įurther, Laurie and Dreiberg were performing "one last job" together to stop Timothy McVeigh as their relationship had become strained. By HBO's Watchmen's 2019 setting, Laurie has changed her last name to Blake and become a federal agent (like her late father, Edward Blake/The Comedian) while Dan Dreiberg was revealed to be in federal custody. The Watchmen comics' epilogue established that Nite Owl/Dan Dreiberg and Silk Spectre/Laurie Juspeczyk assumed new identities as "Sam and Sandra Hollis" but continued to fight crime as superheroes. Laurie's arrival fused Watchmen's Tulsa, Oklahoma-set mysteries with the legacy of the graphic novel but it opened up questions about what happened to Nite Owl and Silk Spectre after Ozymandias' giant squid hoax on 11/2/85 saved the world from nuclear war. Now an FBI agent with the Anti-Vigilante Task Force, Blake - the former Silk Spectre - is reluctantly investigating the murder of Tulsa Police Chief Judd Crawford (Don Johnson). ![]() The third episode of Watchmen, "She Was Killed By Space Junk", reintroduced Agent Laurie Blake (Jean Smart) into the saga. ![]() HBO's Watchmen revealed intriguing new details about what happened to Nite Owl and Silk Spectre in the years after the Watchmen graphic novel ended.
