ElectricBoogaloo March 7, 2019 Author Share March 7, 2019 Penny got a promotion! It sounds terrible though. I loved how some of the librarians were totally fine with the idea of killing Alice but the thought of reading her book had them clutching her pearls. Great priorities, guys. 4 Link to comment
Hanahope March 7, 2019 Share March 7, 2019 Loved the 'side-kick' episode, and showing how important they are. Kady, turning charm cufflinks into Aliester Crowley's ashes was great! She definitely has a calling in trade. And being a detective. Girl has mad skillz. I knew what a Bag of Holding was!! That doll was creepy. I hope that was for a year's rent. Fen's side quest looks interesting too, finding out why she's having prophetic dreams, and how to get the rest of the animals talking again (or at least Margo's birthright box lizard). And Zelda, trying to find out if her daughter is really still alive, and working with Alice. I did love Dean Fogg giving Z a 'your problem, you deal with it' line. 1 Link to comment

So this episode was basically setting up all the pieces for the "side" players. There was some interesting stuff. Fen and her dreams, Penny now in the secrets room, and I hope we do learn what happened to Harriet. Not really much else to say, I did like seeing Pete again and laughed at him calling Kady Mariska Hargitay. Wonder why the beets don't work on the 'scaly shit'. 1 Link to comment
Diapason Untuned March 7, 2019 Share March 7, 2019 It's a literal travesty that more people don't watch this show, I'm convinced it's the best thing on TV right now. Loved seeing what Kady, Fen and Zelda got up to. It's honestly amazing that they got me to care about a Librarian. Kady's revolution seguing into that so neatly was well done, along with Alice's story. Not sure what to make of Fen's dreams, but I'm sure it'll be something amazing as well. 12 Link to comment

Over the seasons she has become one of my favorite characters and she's right up there by Margo's side as the funniest character on the show. I ❤️ her.

Philbert March 7, 2019 Share March 7, 2019 (edited) Yeah, well, err, damn show. Just when I think you can't get any better you go and pull and episode like this out of your pocket. Since I happen to be one of those who thinks Kady's storyline gets short shrifted most of the time, I absolutely loved every single scene with her in it, particularly with Pete, who's been greatly missed since season one. I got a kick out him still having a thing for Julia after all this time. Kady becoming the leader of the Hedge witches was great as well. Fen is also one of my favorite characters and it was great to see her come into her own, with some help from Josh. Speaking of which, I continue to ship Josh and Margo...hard. Their bitchiness in the middle of yet another crisis was just...neat. While I don't love Alice, I thought her brief scene with Fogg and Zelda was pretty interesting. The fact that she's still managed to elude the entire Library shows just how clever she is. Granted, they also have an uprising of Hedge Witches (led by a seriously pissed off Kady) to deal with. Loved, loved, loved the whole bit with Penny 40 and his "subordinate" in the library. That's how you frame an episode btw. Seriously, the writing on this show rivals anything that HBO is putting out right now. Edited March 7, 2019 by Philbert 12 Link to comment

I compromise by bingeing the entire series at some point after the season has run. Snort! "You have a case of white male protagonism." Though I have to say, when I hear the phrase 'great destiny ' I don't think of a job as a bureaucrat. I loved looking at the other characters too. I love Kady and Fen. The Library is living up to the idea of unintended consequences and large institutions. I adore this show. It really is so smart and heartfelt. Edited March 9, 2019 by AuntieMame 3 Link to comment

iMonrey March 7, 2019 Share March 7, 2019 I was a little confused in the beginning because Derek (Penny's supervisor's supervisor) said he had read both Alice and Quentin's books, and recounted what was happening to them in the last episode. But . . . later in the episode, Zelda said Alice's book was still in the revision room. Alice also put a spell on it (or swapped it out) so that the Librarians wouldn't know where she was. So how was Derek able to know what she was up to after she escaped from the library? On another note: Kady never shared any scenes with Pete back in Season 1 so I was a little confused how she recognized him on sight. Pete was the character who introduced Julia to Marina, and all of his scenes were with those characters. I remembered that Kady was working for Marina so I suppose she met Pete through her but it felt like a bit of a cheat since they'd never met before on-screen. I'm assuming the "Babayaga" is a take-off on the Babadook. Was Marina paying rent to the Babayaga? Because back in Episode 2 she said she "worked really hard to steal" that apartment. Maybe she stole it from a previous tenant? And the Babayaga doesn't care who lives there as long as they pay the rent? Marina did say the apartment was more trouble than it was worth. 2 Link to comment

I’m guessing one of the reasons that Marina worked so hard to steal that particular apartment is because of the protection provided by the Baba Yaga (who only seems to care that the rent is paid regardless of who is actually paying - can’t say I blame her for that). 1 6 Link to comment

I admit to missing the super dramatic Q/Elliot/Monster love triangle, but this was such a great episode, I hardly even noticed they hadn't shown up except for a second, I was so engaged. This show is so smartly written, its tragic that I know it will never get any major award love from the Globes or the Emmys. Its right up there in quality with any of the gritty HBO shows, in fact I would say its better than many of them. Its just so creative in its world building and story telling! Loved using this episode to both move Penny's story along at last, and to use him as a framing device to show what all the supporting cast has been up to, and see all of the exciting things happening that are inevitably going to all come to a head. Loved seeing Kady, Fen, and Zelda and their stories, I am such a sucker for "here is what was going on in the background" style stories with supporting characters, but unlike a lot of those stories, its not really played for laughs or exists to give the main cast a break, they are all doing important stuff that will certainly have a big impact on the larger story. We even got more time with even really minor characters, like Pete, the animal guy from Fillory, the British librarian who broke the mirror last season, etc. I think my favorite story was Zeldas, its so interesting seeing how the Library functions from the inside, and how you can see how some of them do have good intentions, especially Zelda, but in practice its doing some really horrible things and more of them seem to be going power hungry, and it seems like it will just get worse. The mirror world was so creepy, I loved it and wanted to leave as soon as possible. But I love all of them. Kady and her quest to unite the hedges, including the sketchy magic farmers market, and Fen and her prophetic dreams and souffle saving were so entertaining, and I love their characters so much, and its great seeing more of them. I was just wondering last week was Kady was up to, and here we are! The twist with the guy being Penny's boss was great, and now Penny is getting a terrifying promotion! Who does he see?! Tell me now damn it?!? "We really did think all the stories were about white guys back then." Margo and Josh are so bitchy and petty in a crisis, but are still trying to get stuff done, its hilarious. Its kind of funny, of all of the main cast, the only one who really fits the typical "white heterosexual cis male" label is Josh, who is the least focused on! 1 Link to comment

The Companion March 8, 2019 Share March 8, 2019 Oh man, I loved this episode. Kady was so conspicuously absent after stealing the apartment. In a lesser show, she would have shown back up unexplained to be told by Penny 23 that her Penny missed her, and then disappeared again. Her story could have been a minor quest story, but instead she started a revolution. It was nicely balanced with Zelda's story. You saw the Library's side and the hedge witch side. The Library explosion was explained. Speaking of Zelda, that mirror world was creepy. Rounding it out was the enjoyable Fen story. She is so enjoyable. Her delight at the souffle prediction was adorable. Also her speech. I loved that she was taking control of something. Nice call back with the knives. It was also great to see Penny 40. He has a bit more edge and dark humor, which I love. I loved his longing for Kady (hey, that was probably part of the test) and his genuine enthusiasm for what they do. I am dying to know who was in the elevator. 1 Link to comment
AudienceofOne March 8, 2019 Share March 8, 2019 Was this episode the same number in the season as that awesome one they did last season that got Harriet trapped in the first place? It had a similar feel to it and dealt with similar themes (although it couldn't top it - but then nothing could, that's one of my favourite episodes of television ever). Every time I think this show might be slipping, they pull out something truly epic like this. It's season 4 and the show's themes and characterisation are still on point. I'm reminded of their epic season 1 finale when they went "Oh, did you think Quentin was the hero of this story? Oh yeah, he's not." That was the episode that sold me on this show and I love it's never lost sight of that. And you could say that Quentin is, in fact, the emotional heart of the group but in the books this show is critiquing, the white cis male lead was the Great White Saviour not the emotional centre. It actually places Quentin in a position usually reserved for a female character. I really liked the way this episode explored the actions that led to the destruction of the Modesto Library. If I had any criticism of it though, it would be around the slightly heavy handed dealings of the protagonist issue - it's one thing it's managed to do throughout the show without spelling it out and so some of Penny's monologue felt a little clunky. 4 Link to comment

I can see that, but I actually liked the narration and didn't find it intrusive. It could have felt gimmicky but for the fact that it implicitly updated us on a fourth character missing from the narrative. Penny 40's enthusiasm and depth of knowledge (and acceptance that he couldn't change what was happening in the land of the living) was important, IMO. Last week we understood that he was no longer trying to get back and that he was a full on Librarian, but this gave us some insight into his life on between those points. It was clear it wasn't some brainwashing or cupcake trick. He seemed legitimately happy with his role. Proud of what he was doing. I liked that aspect of the story, personally. 6 Link to comment

This is what I don't get. There are many branches of the Library. The Underworld Branch and the Neitherlands Branch are just two of them. The Modesto Branch just exploded, for example. So how can each of them have different versions of the same books? I mean, they all work for the same order, so what's to stop someone in the Underworld Branch from reading Alice's book and telling the Neitherlands Branch where she is? Doesn't that defeat the whole purpose of what Alice did to her book in the revision room? The first glimpse we ever got of the Library was the Neitherlands Branch, and that's where Penny saw all of his friend's books. I've always assumed that branch and that branch alone has the biographies. And if you wanted to look at them at another branch they could send them over or something. Link to comment
AudienceofOne March 8, 2019 Share March 8, 2019 I'd like it to be explained but I can imagine that it's just the Underworld branch that's special. Penny seemed to be implying that they have some kind of master set that transcends space time and they can't even warn other library branch staff about certain things i.e. they can't warn that librarian that Harriet's mother (sorry I'm spacing on names today) is hallucinating and lying to him. 1 Link to comment

I originally thought it had to do with his time on Earth and the second volume was about his time as a king in Fillory. Then after the mosaic episode I thought maybe it was about that but Q only had one book and he was there too. Now I have no idea! Edited April 1, 2019 by TiffanyNichelle 1 Link to comment
