in "reawakening" how is it that xanatos manages to tell everyone to meet at the brooklyn bridge without all the public and media overhearing?

Greg responds...

Most everyone was far away. Elisa could only hear because Goliath was wearing a mic.

why did Broadway have more head horns in "future tense" than in the 1990's?

Greg responds...

Perhaps more will grow as he matures more. Or perhaps, Puck made a mistake.

maybe im just an idiot for not understanding but what is puck talking about when he responds to demona," Did you say that human or that human." ive watched the episode a lot of times and i consider myself a pretty smart guy but i can't figure this out.

Greg responds...

By changing the emphasis, he was merely hinting that he wasn't going to kill THAT human Elisa Maza. But get rid of that HUMAN Elisa Maza, i.e. by changing her into a gargoyle. But he wasn't trying to be clear, so don't feel too bad.

What regular episode number was, "The Mirror," aired as? And if do you know what episodes were aired right before and right after it?

Greg responds...

I'm not sure what you mean by "episode number". As I once explained, each episode of the series had a production number from Walt Disney Television Animation. Each episode also had an "episode number" from Buena Vista Television. These numbers occassionally, but not always, corresponded to their airing order.

I'll assume you're referring to airing order, because I don't see why anyone would be interested in production or episode numbers.

"The Mirror" was designed to be (and actually was) our 18th episode. It was preceded by "A Lighthouse in the Sea of Time" and succeeded by "The Silver Falcon".

I'm resubmitting this question since you (I assume inadvertently) posted the same answer to it that you did to the "Max Steel" question preceding it. I hope that you don't mind.

In "City of Stone Part Three", when Xanatos and Owen are discussing how to find a way of breaking Demona's spell, Owen suggests researching the Grimorum Arcanorum. Xanatos correctly points out that even if they could find a counter-spell in its pages, they wouldn't be able to use it (and it could even be dangerous to do so on account of the "mixing magics is a bad idea" business).

The revelation later on that Owen was really Puck made that suggestion of his a bit puzzling to me. I would have thought that Puck would have already been aware that the Grimorum wasn't an option for the solution without Xanatos needing to tell him that. Or is he less knowledgeable about human magic than about faerie magic?

Greg responds...

You're misreading the scene, I think. (THough it's not fresh in my mind.)

Xanatos is responding to two different thoughts.

1. That neither he NOR "Owen" are sorcerors.

2. Then Xanatos is immediately jumping to the NEXT logical thought, which is what if PUCK were to do something. (Not that Puck would have.) He's asking for CONFIRMATION that Puck couldn't help, even were he so inclined because mixing magics is dangerous.

I think.

In "The New Olympians", when Proteus is masquerading as Goliath and Elisa suddenly notices that he doesn't turn to stone in the daytime, Proteus replies that New Olympus's cloaking device must be altering the sun's rays so as to allow him to remain flesh by day. It recently struck me that this was not only a lie, but actually a rather poor lie, because of this: as we know, it isn't sunlight that causes gargoyles to turn to stone in the daytime, but rather their internal biological clock. So whatever effect the New Olympians' concealment technology would have on the sunlight, it wouldn't prevent the gargoyles from turning to stone by day (for that matter, we do know that gargoyles on New Olympus must turn to stone in the daytime on account of such a thing happening to Goliath, Angela, and Bronx while they were on the island).

So was Proteus not too well-versed in gargoyle biology, that he made such an error about what causes them to turn to stone by day? Or did he know the truth, but assume that Elisa didn't?

Greg responds...

He was vamping.

What was that place that Oberon sent Angela and Brooklyn too in Gathering pt 1 where they floated and stammered that it was cold? A part of Oberon himself, or another dimension, or something else entirely?

Greg responds...

A part of his cloak.

Probably a pointless question, but in 'Deadly Force', just before Broadway shot Elisa, she was cooking something on the stove. Who turned the cooker off? We saw Broadway pick up Elisa and just glide off. He didn't turn the stove off. Who did?

Greg responds...

The cops.

Since you ramble on "Eye of the Beholder", I have a Silly question. Any reasons why Owen took the Commandoes' armored heliopter instead of the usual 'civilian' helicopter?

Greg responds...

In case there was trouble, I guess. But I hadn't noticed.

I saw recently the episode "Upgrade". My thought is:

1) Goliath must make a BIG choice
2) Brooklyn/Lexington/Broadway must proove themself worthy
3) The Pack get a *New* look
4) (In my opinion) The is the first step to Dingo's *turn Around* (Becoming a good guy eventually in the Matrix Ep)

In your opinion, is this a very immportant episode, A *Pivitol* episode, more so than, say Avalon Prt 1, in your views?

Greg responds...

In my view, they're all fairly pivotal for different reasons, many of which weren't revealed in the first 66.

But Upgrade had soeme good stuff in it, yeah.

But quantifying "pivotalness" i.e. Upgrade vs. Avalon 1 seems beyond pointless to me.
