Streaming now on Netflix, The Umbrella Academy Season 2 stars Ellen Page, Tom Hopper, David CastaƱeda, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Robert Sheehan, Aidan Gallagher and Justin H. 13 HE IS ALWAYS THE PROPHET While Vanya is 'always the bomb' and is always the Hargreeves sibling who brings about the apocalypse, Number Five has a tragic fate as well. An alien from a faraway planet is certainly someone who could be described as "the wanderer, harried for years on end." So while Five's recitation of Homer seems like a throwaway line at the moment, it's in fact a powerful summation of what makes the time-traveling assassin and his father so similar. Number Five put this into motion when he concentrated and made a jump into the past to save his brothers and sisters and did it perfectly. Number Five put this into motion when he concentrated and made a jump into the past to save his brothers and sisters and did it perfectly. This was an element of Hargreeves' character that wasn't hidden at all in the comics but hadn't made the transition to the show - until now. One of the other members of his shadow government organization comments he has "interests on the dark side of the moon," and the end of the scene culminates in Hargreeves peeling off a rubbery mask he uses to hide his alien form. The second-to-last episode of Season 2 sees Reginald Hargreeves reveal that he's an alien. ![]() ![]() One of the character's earliest scenes is even him killing an entire squad of Commission enforcers. But in this case, it can just as easily refer to Five - an assassin who's hardly ever defeated in single combat at any point in the show. But in this case, it's personally meaningful for Five, as he is literally trying to have this line tell his life's story, the story "of that man, skilled in all way of contending." In the original text, this line refers to Odysseus, one of the foremost generals of the Trojan War, coming off of his great victory against the Trojans and attempting to sail home. He invokes the muses, the Ancient Greek goddesses of (among other things) poetry, verse and storytelling. "Sing in me, Muse, and through me tell the story" is merely Homer's way of opening his story. Number Five was introduced in season 1, but his young age in comparison to his siblings was most noticeable. Even if he does, it is not mentioned in the series yet. The Umbrella Academy family is getting even bigger: welcome Nick. No, five doesnt have a name in The Umbrella Academy like his siblings. And while Five fails in his overt objective as Reginald hasn't actually taught any children yet, the line is meaningful all the same. The Aidan Gallagher age issue, coupled with his acting ability, still fools audiences that Five is a middle-aged man stuck in a 13-year-old's body despite Aidan Gallagher being born in 2003. Season 3 of The UmbrellaAcademy is now streaming, only on Netflix. After all, the Hargreeves patriarch forced each of his children to learn the Odyssey when they were young. Five's intention is to rattle off something he couldn't possibly know without having a personal connection to Reginald.
