As soon as I saw it, I fell in love with this episode. It was the perfect blend of humour, deeper themes and rising tension in the main plot.
Even though Hermes wasn't in the first book, god I loved his character. It was perfect for this storyline, because we get to see why Luke hates his dad so much, and how the Olympians are really distant parents, but also Hermes side of things and how he loves look, but feels powerless to stop him from struggling.
That whole conversation between Percy, Annabeth and Hermes had SUCH good dialogue.
Grover also played the part that brought rising tension. Him forgetting everything shone that menacing light on the whole episode, which had me holding my breath for what came next.
But the funny parts were def my favourite-from Annabeth and Percy trying to get Grover back on track, to Percy driving the Taxi-I COULD NOT STOP LAUGHING.
I've already watched this episode 3 times and I'm probably gonna watch it a 4th. How have they done such a good job?! 🤗
