One thing that caught my eye was the topper on the vial of Titan's blood. That was clearly owlbert, so was that put there by Eda? If so, how did she get Titan's blood? Why did she leave it there?
My interpretation is that the portal was created by Evelyn, who is heavily implied to have been a Clawthorne; maybe the owl thing is a bit of a family tradition. She might have left the blood there as a failsafe in case she gets stuck in the human realm, or perhaps even as a way for Caleb to come to the Boiling Isles.

Based on Hollow Mind the two of them were romantically involved and apparently even had a child together (in some of the paintings Evelyn is visibly pregnant) so that makes sense.

I’m curious if we’re actually going to get the real story at some point or if this and Hollow Mind are the most the show is going to go into it.

I’m also curious what the Boiling Isles are even going to look like when the gang returns considering that at least 2 months have passed in canon since the “Hexsquad” (as Reddit seems to commonly call Luz’s group) got stuck in the human realm (also given what we saw this episode it’s possible Camila may actually wind up being the key to dealing with the Collector)


Also since it’s implied back in Hooty’s Door that the Collector is the one who captured the owl beast in the first place I’m curious if the subject of Eda/Lilith’s curse is going to be brought up again and potentially cured.

The owl beast is a living being after all and even though Eda made a deal with it and can now control the transformation I doubt it enjoys being trapped like that, also as we saw on the Day of Unity the curse is still a danger to her and probably would have destroyed her body if Raine hadn’t yanked off the arm containing the sigil.

I'm moving towards the theory that Flapjack was Evelyn's palisman, which then passed to the original Caleb, and then got wilded and in custody of the Bat Queen. Unless Belos' "Goodbye, Evelyn!" before killing it was meant to imply that she'd transferred herself into the palisman body on the event of her death somehow.

It's hard making fan theories when "a wizard did it" is literally the main focus of the setting.

I just assumed Evelyn made Flapjack like you said and the line was referring to the fact that Belos was about to destroy the last living remnant of her

This and also Belos isn't 100% there and sometimes just calls people by the names of other people who have been dead for centuries if they remind him of them when he's in a particularly rough spot, and he's been in a rough spot ever since he was turned into a spot on the wall.

Case in point: He calls Hunter “Caleb” as well after he breaks free at the end (and Luz’s response to that seems to indicate she knows what Philip did to his brother)

I feel like Belos has been in a rough spot ever since Cool Aunt Lilith superkicked him in the face.

It's a shame, I'd have loved an episode just to go through what Vee's life is like now. What does it mean for her that the real Luz is back after living her life for however long? What about her friends, and the person they know as Luz?
We do get to see a bit about how Camilla just sincerely loves her as a second daughter (look how delighted she was to see Vee get a human face of her own!) and you see her take Masha up on that date in the end credits, I'd have loved to see more of that.

Hell, Luz and Vee don’t even say a word to one another this entire episode (also it would have been nice if the latter had gone back to calling Camila “mom” by this point)

Thanks, Mouse, for ruining a great show-maker's feels for show-making :smith:

Looking forward to an 'official' comic, though, I'm sure they can get a publisher on board somehow!

I don't know how she thought that would ever get approved. Maybe it was one of those tactics where you start with something crazy and negotiate down to what you wanted/planned on.

Dana had been shopping the show around to different networks and ironically Disney was the best deal she could get. But yeah, there’s a reason that idea never got past the design phase (though there have been a few references to it scattered about the series proper)

Just saw this depressing news item: Hooty (and Sprig) made an appearance in a teenager's school mural, and American Taliban parents lost their poo poo*.

* For other reasons -- I doubt any of the bumfuck numbnuts recognized those characters. What really set them off was the combination of clear support for LGBT inclusion, a "Satan mask", and a few other symbols. The character holding a syringe and wearing a mask probably triggered them as well.

It occurs to me that The Mouse is easily big enough to conduct its own political polling, and the non-zero chance of a DeSantis presidency gives the company a very real legal pressure not to have an even bigger target on themselves in two years.

I mean, it's still cowardice, but the corporate system doesn't reward heroism.

They sued a couple to remove spider-man from the headstone of their dead son because it was "tarnishing the image of their brand" they simply have other lawyers to handle the bad PR that comes from these lawsuits.

Vee is great and I hope Thanks to Them isn’t the last we see of her barring a cameo near the end.

Hell, you could probably do an entire spinoff show based around her adventures in the human realm. Masha could be her sidekick/love interest (speaking of, am I the only one who gets Janna from Star Vs vibes off of them?)
