Excluding Teri who hasn't physically debuted, Cross and the Graux Sisters are the only St. Epiderm students introduced so far who don't appear or receive a mention in this chapter.
Tropes
Blooper: Luz is accidentally labeled "Luke" during Terra's attempt to stop the protest.
In Memoriam: The chapter has a double dedication to singer Irene Cara, who died just two days before its publishing, and Jason David Frank, who perished 9 days before.
Word of God: Slasher will not be chosen as the new Head Witch for the Bard Coven, as Calypso wouldn't allow him to endanger himself.
