- What were our overall thoughts on this episode?
- We loved seeing the attic and tried to spot as many items here as possible.
- The Oracle is SO CREEPY and we know Percy would agree.
- Why did we get so excited about the green smoke?
- Chiron can’t fault Percy’s logic for picking Annabeth.
- Poor Grover has to shovel poop as his punishment for defying Dionysus.
- Did Percy choose Grover to go on the quest to keep his enemy closer?
- Was that really Blackjack?
- We get an explanation of drachmas, and we’re dying for some of our own.
- The wings coming out of the shoe’s laces was amazing to watch.
- Why didn’t Percy choose Luke for his quest?
- Annabeth says goodbye to Thalia’s tree and Percy is NOT having it.
- The tension between Percabeth is going to make their friendship even more rewarding down the line.

- Even Mrs. Dodds knows Annabeth is a badass!
- We got some major Percy Jackson musical vibes from that scene in the woods.
- Uncle Ferdinand’s backstory is going to be relevant VERY soon.
- Why didn’t they mention how demigods shouldn’t have phones?
- We’re really loving how much more we’re getting from Annabeth in this episode.
- Percy is NOT happy that Grover was Annabeth’s protector first.
- Saved by the burger!
- Medusa is giving off good vibes, to be honest.
- Though her house is giving Hansel and Gretel.
- We get Medusa’s story from the Gorgon herself, and Annabeth doesn’t like what she has to say about Athena.
- Medusa feels protective of Percy and offers him a choice, but he dips before he gets stuck between a rock and a hard place.
- WHY WOULD YOU RUN INTO THE BASEMENT?
- Did anyone else forget Medusa had snakes for hair?
- Annabeth’s impromptu plan is pretty amazing.
- Why doesn’t Uncle Ferdinand’s statue look afraid like the others?
- Grover calls out both of his friends for their recent antics and attitude.
- This is definitely the start of some kind of friendship between Percy and Annabeth.
- What do you mean, Percy IS impertinent.
- We’re obsessed with the consensus song.
- We totally were not expecting to see Hermes at the end of the episode!
- That song playing during the end credits is absolutely perfect.
