Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 4 discussion (00:24:31)
- Points to us for knowing Annabeth was in a sewer, even though we had no idea why.
- We really see the relationship between Luke and Young Annabeth in the first flashback scene.
- Did you expect Young Annabeth to call Luke out for telling her Keloggia was the goddess of stealth?
- Did you like the Monster Donut and hydra details??
- Young Annabeth is SO CUTE.
- Percy knows just what to say to Tyson.
- He also knows how to break the tension. Boys are gross.
- Clarisse makes a VERY dramatic entrance.
- How did she know Annabeth wasn’t inside??
- Annabeth and Clarisse go toe-to-toe in a battle of wits. Then Percy and Clarisse go toe-to-toe in a battle of strength.
- Did Percy think he could beat Clarisse, or was he just giving Annabeth time to make her move?
- Why is Clarisse so hellbent on not having any other demigods with her?
- Time to make some big choices! Will it be Scylla or…that other one?
- Clarisse really doesn’t like the idea of sacrificing her men. There’s that bleeding heart again.
- Grover is an excellent Protector. Demigods are just bad at listening.
- Neither Luke nor Thalia wants to go to Camp.
- Luke looks SO emo in this scene, and we’re eating it up.
- What were your original theories as to why Annabeth’s bracelet kept returning to the boat?
- We get a glimpse of Rainbow!!
- Percy realizes he’s got some new abilities.
- Will Tyson grow into more of his Poseidon skills?
- Small choices make the biggest difference sometimes.
- Percy has some great advice in this scene, but is it a little too clean and perfect?
- Clarisse’s men are willing to follow her anywhere, and you can tell that sits heavy on her shoulders.
- Was Percy channeling Sally Jackson in this scene with the sandwich?
- We get the full prophecy, and even though it’s straight from the book, we’re glad to hear it from start to finish.
- It’s time to follow through on those big choices!
- “Heroes slay monsters, they don’t run from them.”
- Sometimes it’s hard to remember, especially in the beginning, that Clarisse is a hero, too.
- We loved watching Annabeth and Percy figure out how to correct course after Clarisse changes their heading.
- Percy on the front of the ship, steady as a rock, was SO BADASS.
- Clarisse saves Annabeth. How very friendly of her!
- Ironside blows up in the most dramatic way possible.
- Can you believe the episode ended here??
- Next time: Sea Doos, sirens, guinea pigs, oh my!
