Poltargyst February 15, 2018 Share February 15, 2018 Seeing Dean Fogg in this episode reminds me that it's been annoying me for a long time now that he is still blind. This is a show about magic. Penny got his hands back, Alice is alive again, can we get the Dean his eyesight back already? Speaking of restoring eyesight, can we get Margo her eye back? Those eyepatches are blocking me from seeing half of her pretty face. Not only that, she has great facial expressions which are being blocked. Restore the eye! Speaking of great facial expressions, Margo's and El's facial expressions while they're telling the punk that he just had sex. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!! Um.....THEY HAVE TEETH?????????? And speaking as a guy, putting that frog there to bite....GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!! Q and El are awful affectionate with each other after spending a lifetime together. Interesting statement by that douche Hymen or whatever. Penny pretends not to care but he cares the most of anyone. Holy dragon! Alice.....okay, when did it become okay to show people puking on tv? I blame ER. 1 Link to comment

I loved the matter of fact cuddling. It let me know the show wasn't going to act like the lifetime they spent together didn't affect them. I don't know if it's a typecasting but no matter what role I see Felicia Day in , I just don't like her. I don't like that her character just recklessly passed the key and curse on to Quentin because he seemed upbeat and that she in effect got poor Benedict eaten. I knew Alice getting the magic was going to backfire somehow. It never works out well. 11 Link to comment

ElectricBoogaloo February 15, 2018 Author Share February 15, 2018 Awwwww, I love sweet Benedict! I guess I can hold out hope that Quentin will find him (and the key) in the underworld. Part of me felt terrible for Quentin having to deal with the mean version of himself, especially knowing that he has a history of anxiety and depression, but I still had to laugh when Mean Quentin was going on about his hair. Love that we got to see the emotional bond between Quentin and Eliot is still there after their lifetime together. I know that each baby fairy is probably precious to the fairy queen, but is taking four or five out of the hundreds we saw in that field going to make that much of a difference? I love that the show is not portraying everything magical as holy and set in stone. When the incubus said that he'd started that rumor about his magical penis 25 years ago, I totally cracked up. Will the fairy queen have a magical way of knowing whether Margo and her new husband actually consummated their marriage? Or is that a moot point as long as everyone thinks the marriage has been consummated? I wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry when Margo pulled out that old medieval "vaginas have teeth" thing, but I guess as long as it keeps her from having to have sex with that kid, I'm all for it. Is his mother trustworthy? I don't doubt that she's plotting against the fairy queen, but for all we know, she's just setting Margo up in the mean time. Poor Penny. You know he must have been so mad that the only object he could become was the Big Mouth Billy Bass. I don't know who is going to find Alice since no one else has really been seen in the Physical Cottage since magic disappeared except Eliot (in Fillory), Margo (in Fillory), Quentin (on a boat), Julia (wandering around outside having nightmares), Kady (still pissed and in rehab), Fen & Fray (last sent out shopping with Todd), and Josh. I know we saw Josh earlier in the season but I thought he left. But my point is that Brakebills has been pretty empty so unless Josh, Kady, Fen, Fray, Todd, or Dean Fogg happen to wander into the cottage, Penny pushing that button isn't going to help very much. Although Felicia Day's character was being a sneaky, selfish bitch by putting that key in Quentin's hand while he was passed out, she had one tiny moment of being nice when she offered to temporarily take the key back to let Quentin regroup while he was tied to the mast. I'm a little confused though. She opened the secret door in the boat, she struggled with Benedict but gave him the key, and then she came back up to the deck. Why didn't she go through the portal? I wonder if the portals don't always go to the same place. When Eliot, Fen, and Fray used the portal in the boat, it took them to the Neitherlands. 1 Link to comment

Of course, since it's Q, he got to watch Benedict jump overboard helplessly. On a happier note, Eliot saying he likes to watch to Margo's new husband made me snort tea. Eliot telling the Fairy Queen it's easy to misplace a wife and child was fun, too. 1 Link to comment

That didn't come across very well. My assumption was that Pickwick grabbed the key from her when she punched him in the face and the door closed. Also - I didn't understand what Eliot meant when he asked Quentin how he liked being a palace guard in his own palace. Was Quentin in disguise or did the fairy queen force him to be a palace guard? I was also having a hard time remembering how the Muntjac got back to Fillory. I remember the pirates, then Eliot escaped with Fen and Fray, then Margot showed up and made a deal with the pirates . . . right? Then they - just sailed back to Fillory? Have to go back and watch this again - so much going on. I was yelling at Julia the whole time not to be stupid enough to give Alice her magic. Grr! 1 Link to comment

tennisgurl February 15, 2018 Share February 15, 2018 Poor Quentin, what a crappy day for him. He already has a history of depression (and its implied he was suicidal) so having the depression version of him following him around telling him how much he sucks is pretty damn brutal. I admit, I snickered at the hair thing though. And it was some good character work for him, trying to overcome the personification of depression, and he seemed to be doing alright, but then poor Benedict got the key. I hope he can get sweet Benedict back from the underworld, as well as the key. Who could hold onto the key now? Maybe Margot, but everyone has some pretty serious issues, I cant imagine anyone not struggling with the self esteem sucker. I love how this show mixes magic, the real world, and a really weird sense of humor. Loved seeing the incubus businessman who sucks life force out of stressed people. And pulls his tail off sometimes. But dont worry, it grows back in the Spring! I also like the Julia and Alice team, with Penny following along, pissed that he can only communicate visa vi singing novelty fish (because Magicians) and being unable to help. Glad that Alice tried to help him, even though it ended badly. As expected. Give me all of the Elliot and Q being cuddly towards each other. I really hope they get to follow up on their life together, and the bond they developed while throughout years. I think I might ship it, God help me. 4 Link to comment
iMonrey February 15, 2018 Share February 15, 2018 I know it happened at the end of the last episode but I'd like to know how Eliot, Quentin and Margo got back to Fillory.

Since this is a magical kingdom, I can only assume that the consummation is more than just the standard mediaeval obsession with planting a flag on a woman's womb and has some other, deeper, magical purpose. 3 Link to comment

I was worried it would be forgotten, and god help me, I have starting shipping them, too. Which is good since I haven't had anyone to ship for a long while (I watch mostly reality or cooking shows). And, I don't even feel like this has to be about romantic lurve, but platonic love and mutual support--both of these characters need someone like this to be able to lean into (to be fair, ALL of the characters need this). This show is has wormed its way into my heart as one of my current favorites, and I think it is down to this season, which I feel is the first to really get its legs. That fairy queen is scary AF, and I am interested to see where that storyline goes--and intrigued by the suggestion that she is doing all of this to test Margo's leadership (not sure I 100% buy this theory, but interesting to consider). I struggle a bit with the earthbound storyline and hope they can bring Penny back in a meaningful way bc he is one of my favorite characters. Edited February 15, 2018 by adjovi 4 Link to comment

Enginerd February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 That depression monster was brutal and hard to watch. Too real, show. Too real. I hope they get Benedict back. I love him! Maybe he's bowling in the underworld? Or mapping it? Thrilled that Eliot and Margo are working as a team again. Sick of the wretched fairies and their oppressive dark cloud. Cut off their water supply! I wonder if it's part of the magic of the labyrinth that after you live out your lifetime and solve it, you can return to your starting place and time and take your memories with you. It's awesome that Eliot and Quentin remember that life and have retained their bond. They've had such a beautiful friendship even before then. It's nice to have a few relationships on the show that haven't turned dysfunctional and toxic. I will be furious if the writers mess with that one. Not everything needs to be ruined for the sake of drama. 2 Link to comment

It's too bad the wedding delegation arrived and disrupted the plan to grind down a brick and put it in the fairy queen's bath. What the hell kind of system do the Floating Islanders live under that there are apparently no consequences for murder? For murdering the son of the queen (who is also your brother), in a matriarchal society, no less? Mama didn't even seem to be grieving or angry. Is she heartless? Was Micah a plant pretending to be a prince for the purpose of getting Margo to agree to a wedding and then do the switcheroo, and not really her son? Is she too terrified of the fairies to object? I'm glad Eliot and Quentin are back in Fillory to help out. Margo is a badass, but it's hard to do everything on your own, especially when you're being watched and harassed all the time. With more of the team around, they can run better schemes and sneak around more and create diversions. The crew has really been weakened...Alice can't be trusted, Penny has no body, Kady's locked in the mental hospital, Julia still cares more about her own issues than anything else (and gave her powers to Alice, which seems bound to backfire). Fen would be a help, but it's probably better to keep Fray out exploring Earth and shopping and away from reporting to the Fairy Queen until they're sure they've turned her to their side. 2 Link to comment

I would assume it is a legal requirement similar to those seen in many legal systems over the years. For example, annulment is traditionally permitted if a marriage is not consummated. Similarly, common law marriage sometimes required a declaration of intent plus consummation (most states don't allow them to form these days, so it is really a historical perspective). There is a similar structure implied in GOT, where a marriage is considered invalid if not consummated (rather than annulable from what I can tell).

I assumed it had more to do with the Fairy Queen. We know that the Fairy Queen wants an alliance and that she is not above fairly horrifying acts to get what she wants. We also know that the Fairy Queen has apparently been running the show in the Non-Magic-Mountain Kingdom as well. Who knows what she has gotten up to thus far, but she seems to have gotten the Queen sufficiently in line. I suspect that is why Mama was telling Margo her plan to destroy the Fairy Queen. It was her way of saying: we are both queens under siege and we are going to do what we have to do for the time being, now go consummate this marriage. A day of reckoning is coming, but that day is not today. I can't believe we caught up! It sucks to have to wait until the next episode. I continue to love Margo so hard. The scene where she decided whether or not to pull the mushroom cracked me the hell up. Despite the insane amount of misery that has been dumped on her, I think she shines when she has a clear enemy from a character development standpoint. I loved how excited Quentin was about a quest. On a boat! While letting his inner depression being out was really sad, I really loved that he recognized his prior depression gave him tools to address the being, rather than letting it get into his head immediately. I also loved tying him to the mast. I immediately thought the voice in the darkness would be a Siren. I enjoyed that they turned that expectation on its head a bit. They gave Alice something new to do, which was nice. Julia is still stuck in this rut, characterwise. I hope they give her something interesting to do soon. Having her lie in a park and deal with PTSD doesn't great make TV. Link to comment

iMonrey February 21, 2018 Share February 21, 2018 Quote I do wonder what they plan to do with the fairy babies. Will the Queen care about a handful of dead fairy fetuses? I listed to a great Magicians podcast and they pointed out that in the season premier there was a very brief shot of a world dissolving - we don't know which world (Fillory? Neitherlands? Our world?) but it might be the fairy realm and maybe that's why they're terraforming Fillory because their own world is dying and they have to take over Fillory. It also occurs to me that the reason Alice is seizing is because she isn't equipped to handle the God magic since it wasn't intended for her, and she'll probably have to give it back or die. 1 Link to comment

Hanahope February 28, 2018 Share February 28, 2018 Catching up too. I'm ok with Felicia Day. Yes, she does tend to play very similar characters in all of her guest appearances. And yes, I presume she gets cast mainly because of her fan following moreso than her acting ability (because she plays the characters very similar, even though there are some different details). There is a character called Poppy in the books, who likes dragons, but its definitely a different story line. I got the impression that Poppy said something about going somewhere where it was burning or had brimstone, like the underworld? when she used the key to make a door. Poor Benedict. :( He really couldn't handle it. I hope they can do something for him in the underworld. I thought the red mushrooms were just the ones further along in their development. Loved seeing Margo and Elliot together again. Teeth. hahaha Q was great on the boat, well, until he had to deal with the key. even then, he was smart enough to have himself tied to the mast. Why do I feel like they are just writing 'whatever' for Kady, Penny, Julia and Alice until they can get them all back together into the main story. Penny's story is a tad more interesting, but the others, bleh. Link to comment

I assume it was through the clock but the last time they tried that they wound up in Past Fillory. I wonder how they managed to avoid doing that again. This please!! It's driving me crazy and I haven't found n answer anywhere. Just all of a sudden, Q,E and M are all back in Fillory HOW? Link to comment
