Emerald City Season 1 Episode 8 "Lions in Winter" Review


Dorothy and Lucas arrive at Glinda's castle; the wizard heads to the Kingdom of Ev to build his arsenal of weapons; West uses dangerous magic to help Tip reconnect with her past; Jack tries to find his place in Langwidere's life.

This was a really interesting episode that had some really great moments in it and some moments that felt a little long. I found it really interesting how Dorothy went from being a prisoner of Glinda's to then being a healer trying to help the young witches who overused their powers. I found it kind of weird how Lucas getting his memories back completely changed his personality where he is ignoring Sylvie and acting really stuck up. But when it is brought up he says that he still has his memories from his time with Dorothy and the feeling that went along with that, so what are they trying to do with him. All the moments with West were also really interesting with her having a mental breakdown over all the different things that have happened in the past few episodes. I found it also really cool how West tried to help Tip get their memories back from the time they were Ozma but also giving Tip the magical powers of the eastern witch. So that I'm really excited to see play out and see just how much power Tip now has. And I really loved the scene between Glinda and West where they discuss their mother and it is brought up the West was always the Witch of the South's favorite. Then I really liked the moments with Jack just wondering around Ev trying to come up with something to do since he can't hang out with Lady Ev. I do wonder if he will stay away from her for very long or what all is going to happen there since there friendship kind of fell into trouble. I did really like the ending of this episode even though it wasn't all that surprising that Ev would turn on Oz the minute they finished all the weapons. And just overall this was a really interesting and god episode.
