Oh, sorry, did I blunder into the wrong series ?? I really hope the huge parallels were voluntary. If they were, they're just hilarious. And what to say about the last guardian of Pandora's Box being called Hope ?? That plot works well, Hope and her best friends are refreshingly young, and the details fit perfectly. Really, how could no one wince at "Nina"'s mode of transportation ?? And how cool is it that the shape-shifter demon is trapped by a shape-shifter ? (By the way, just a note to Katya : I wouldn't try to be noticed by Zankou if I were her, as his main allies have had an unfortunate tendency to burst into flames).
Overall, this episode doesn't really add anything huge to the mix, it's just another world-saving day at the manor. Everything fits fine, the rhythm is good, and there are a few nice little asides, such as Wyatt's funny orbing spree. I just love a series that manages to make a 2-year old toddler a real character. The scene in the elevator is also very good, with Paige managing to "save" everybody at the same time... even though none of them were her mission. Beautiful conclusion here, and I find Odin's conspicuous absence rather amusing after what he did to Leo two episodes ago.
