!!Tropes That Appear In This Episode:

* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: The clockwork dwarf says he could rewind time for Fillory, but doing so would destroy Fillory, making the whole idea self-defeating.
* GotVolunteered: Dean Fogg drafts Penny 23 into teaching a new group of Travellers, tricking him into signing an employment contract so he can't back out.
* KilledOffscreen: Josh was beheaded and Fen was hung when the Dark King took over. Margo isn't willing to accept this, however, and wants to SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong.
* PhlebotinumOverload: Because Everett blew up last season with the entire contents of the magic reservoir inside him, all that excess magic is leaking into the world and creating surges of magic which drive spells haywire. One such surge is why Fillory has moved 300 years ahead of Earth.
* TimeSkip: The episode is set a month after the previous season finale.
