Go To

While the Guardians are trying to deal with a Meridian animal on the loose in the school, Wong abducts Uncle in order to find a way past Elyon's defenses.


  • Arbitrary Skepticism: When Irma is skeptical about Martin seeing a ghost, Taranee points out that, while she doesn't believe him either, they've seen a lot of other magical stuff since meeting Jackie. Irma admits the point.
  • Bound and Gagged: After Cedric loses his bookstore, he does this to a woman named Linda Carol and hides her in her own closet in order to have a place to show Elyon as his home.
  • Friend to All Living Things: Hay Lin is outraged to see Wong holding a Hermeneuta Beast in a chain.
  • I Can't Believe I'm Saying This: Cornelia has the canonical example of being envious of Irma who's distracting Martin with a date while the rest of them have difficulties with the baby Hermeneuta Beast and its mother.
  • Mama Bear: Or boar; the Hermeneuta beast Wong enslaved turns out to just be a baby. Its mother tracks it down after the J-Team subdues it and gets mad.
  • So Much for Stealth: Will says this when her, Jackie, Blunk and Uncle's escape from Phobos's castle is cut short by them running into guards and Lurdens.
  • Tampering with Food and Drink: After Wong concocts a counter-spell to the protective one Uncle devised for Elyon, Cedric tricks her into drinking it the same way the heroes did.
  • Tempting Fate: Jade dismisses Tohru's concern that the mother Hermeneuta Beast could be having them cornered instead of the other way around.
    Jade: It's a giant slobbering pig! Pretty sure it's not smart enough to lure us into a trap. (Caleb slips and ends up being pinned underneath the beast as it turns visible) And it seems the pig is smarter that I thought.
  • Would Rather Suffer: When Taranee suggests that they join the school newspaper, Jade states that she'd rather be eaten alive by demons.
