User Reviews

another good episode, a tad step down from 'Faith Healer' though

A cursed cape makes it's wearer irresistible to women and while Micki, Ryan & Jack attempt to get it back, some blood gets on the cape's brooch which sends Ryan & Micki (along with Frank, it's current wearer as well as a newly-turned vampire) back in time. They meet up with Abraham and his beloved Caitlin now they have to find a way home, recover the cape, and save an enchanted Micki.

This episode marks the first one to deal with time travel (but not the last) and the second time that Micki is enchanted by one of the cursed items (the first being "Cupid's Quiver"). Most of the film is shot in black & white, which is a great stylistic choice. This was also a pretty good episode with tight plotting (disregarding a few plot holes)
