Episode 4 of Percy Jackson left our kiddos questioning. Percy got some reassuring words from his father Poseidon after he was saved by the king of the sea. Annabeth is left abandoned by her mother for something that she wasn’t even responsible for, and Grover is left trying to keep the peace between the two. This episode introduces Ares and fleshes out some of the other Gods and how they fit into the story.
We seem to be nearing the climax of our quest. Grover says he knows who stole the master bolt, the kids seem to have made an adversary out of Ares, Athena looks like she will be coming into the picture at some point, and Percy seems to finally have accepted that Poseidon might actually care about him. We are in a great place for the next three episodes. There is still a lot to cover but it also feels like the pacing is so well done that the show will also wrap up everything not needed for a Season 2. There has been internet rumors that the next episode is going to be a musical episode but this rumor is substantiated by nothing and seems to only have been inspired by the casting of Lin Manuel Miranda as Hermes. There are 0 sources that lend credibility to this rumor so I highly doubt its happening. I will say that when considering things like this I implore people to do some level of research before just believing everything you see on the internet.
