Man, obviously that entire scene under the tree is gut-wrenching, but specifically the shot where it cuts from Luz trying to deflect and be like "that's not an excuse" to Amity's stricken expression.... oof. Gets me every time.

[@WeeLassReacts]

"That's not an excuse" The delivery of that line showcases how mature luz is as a person 😭💝 I don't even think I'd have said that in my 20s

[@sanmeiwolf]

Yeah... and the way Luz's pupils contract when she sees that expression. Like she's realizing that Amity is going to hurt for her regardless of how she pretends she's not torn up inside. The facade of being okay collapses immediately.

[@caldercockatoo2234]

Cool profile picture!

[@MuffinHunterX]

That look on Amity's face when she realizes what Luz was going through all day is one of my favorite pieces of show don't tell animation. You can tell she's torn between feeling horrified that she potentially opened a wound and has no idea how to respond as her own anger at the situation is washed away by the new information. One extra meaning I rarely see anyone catch when Alador says "Edalyn's kid?" Is that he didn't say "the human kid?" Didn't even cross his mind. Which going back kind of implies he wouldn't have cared that Willow was a late bloomer magically and it was all Odalia's problem but he didn't contradict her for ...reasons. And something I've _never_ seen anyone mention is that little bit at the very end. Vee. She's in her natural form. When she's at home she feels no need to hide who she is and Camilla's completely comfortable with the sweet little basilisk girl she's adopted. I absolutely adore this episode both for the massive amounts of character growth for multiple members of the cast and for how they portrayed Luz's grief. The only other show I can think of that handled the subject so well was the last season of Young Justice where Clark had his own breakdown over Conner's death when they had to explain his absence to Jonathan.

[@WeeLassReacts]

Good shout about Alador!!! I never picked up on that!!! I did pick up on Vee in her normal form but thought that was obvious because of corese Camilla would be weird with her looking like Luz when Luz is in a dangerous demon releam? I guess I just never thoughts it was important enough to comment on hahaha

[@MuffinHunterX]

@@WeeLassReacts Guess I've watched one too many hide the alien/monster/wierd thing about our family shows. It just felt like a breath of fresh air to see Vee normalized. But yeah you're totally right that it would be wierd for her to be impersonating Luz when everyone present knows she not her.

[@BelBelle468]

His reasons are likely family oriented. When it comes to parenting many families operate with the idea that the parents need to be on the same wavelength. Cuz if they’re not, it makes discipline difficult if they can’t even agree on one, how can they teach the kids? This has a bad effect if one of the parents are overbearing, toxic, or abusive. Kids will be placed in a scenario where they’re treated poorly and the mediator parent is left to siding with the bad influence, even when it’s wrong. They think it’s the best for the family, keeps the peace, makes the spouse happy, teaches the kid good life lessons. It might even be about allowing that parent to be the one who “raises” the kid while they focus on other things (job/financial security for the kids, in Alador’s case).

[@BelBelle468]

@@MuffinHunterX also good to save magic for when she actually needs to leave the house

[@SteveMND]

We also know that in the show, people often misremember things in the flashbacks we see. That makes me wonder whether or not Alador was ACTUALLY siding with Odalia during that Willow flashback, or was he merely refusing to disagree with his wife, and that came across to young Amity instead as him actively siding with Odalia against her?

[@HotDogTimeMachine385]

"I'm glad Amity wasn't just reduced to girlfriend" Sadly that doesn't stop people from saying she was just reduced to girlfriend and pretend the writing is bad though...

So it’s likely Astrid got more, it’s just only regulated to the tv series.

I love Sarah-Nicole Robles’ voice acting this episode. The scene where Luz talks about her dad is packed with so much emotion and the voice cracking! She truly deserves the award she got for her work on the show. I still feel that Alador’s complicity and involvement in how he and Odalia treated their kids is swept away a little too easily but I do appreciate the touch that Amity doesn’t allow for a hug and keeps some distance. And I understand that they only had so much time.

"I would've loved to have a character like Luz to look up to when I was little" I've said it before, but I think that's why I love this show so much. If I had The Owl House growing up it would've made things so much easier to figure out and be comfortable with.

[@ultimategaymer_]

The knowledge about her father really recontextualises a lot about Luz's character. Her mom is a single parent trying her best to raise this kid, probably working overtime at her job in order to make ends meet. How lonely do you think Luz felt? How many nights did she spend in that house by herself? How unnoticed did she feel? How much of her acting out and causing trouble at school was a cry for help? Only for it to backfire and leave her with no friends, labelled as 'weird' and someone that the school thought needed to be 'fixed'. Luz really is the sort of the person who *seems* like she wears her heart on her sleeve, but in reality pushes down and buries and hides her negative feelings because she doesn't want to burden those around her. (To clarify, I'm not saying that Camilla is a bad parent or anything, far from it, she was doing the best she could with a bad hand)

[@alexkoder1982]

*Remembers season 3 episode 1*

[@WeeLassReacts]

You might know more than me, but I don't like to assume people who are missing parents are "acting out" because they might not be missing anything, I thought that was just who Luz was as a person. But either way you can tell she really misses her father and her mother in this scene and is finding it hard knowing she can't be back with her mum 💝💝 She's someone that fills her time with distractions to cope with feelings and I find that very relatable hahaha that's how this channel was started 🤣💝

[@SteveMND]

One of the nice aspects of the show is that almost none of the characters are static. You get a lot of shows where the characters have their defining personality trait, and that's just kind of... it. Even though we don't see them that often, the twins are developing, Alador is developing... hell, we find out that even our favorite prison guard isn't just some mindless cookie-cutter lockstep-evil emperor-fellator, and is having his own personal doubts about what's been going on behind the scenes!

[@dz1_randomviewah]

My favorite part of the Lumity ship is the way they support each other. The adorableness is a very close second; but the way that Luz helps Amity to grow out of the Bonsai Child mold Odalia had her stuck in, and Amity actually gets Luz to open up about her own problems and allow herself to be supported. This episode (and episode 11) are both perfect examples of the latter, too: Luz doesn't want to worry people, and her way of dealing with her own problems is to bury herself in tasks, or project and try to help others instead (first trying to help Kiki go home, and then over-zealously trying to help Amity make this connection with her dad). In both cases, Amity first gives her space, and then - once it becomes clear Luz is avoiding something that's bothering her - addressing that directly through dialogue. They are *very* good for each other. And I fucking love it!

[@millytheotterlover1680]

One thing I really like about episode 11 is they didn't have Amity watch the video. They avoided the cliche drama of her seeing the video and then getting mad at Luz for lying to her. Amity didn't watch the video AND she was very understanding even though she knew that Luz had lied about not finishing building the portal.

Luz’s line “I actually think Eda has the same outfit.” Is a reference to early Eda concept art of similar outfits. They were supposed to be a part of a running gag of Eda wearing a new outlandish outfit every episode, but the gag was deemed to expensive to create a new model sheet EVERY episode just for the gag. You may remember the Swap episode had a crazy outfit as a one off version of this gag when Boscha visited the stand.

Perfect camouflage. 10:11 - *_[Mosco.exe has stopped responding…]_** - “What is happening? Well, okay, is that what they actually look like?"* As you can see, Emira and Edric use their concealing stones for very different purposes. Emira uses it as… concealer, which is why she looks the same, just with some typical teenage spotty skin. Edric, on the other hand, uses it as the solution to the problem of "Meh, I don't feel like changing out of my T-shirt and sweatpants, washing and/or combing my hair, or shaving my wispy teenage pube-beard today." So, basically the magical teenage version of leaving your camera turned off in a Zoom meeting and pretending to have technical difficulties… 16:03 - *“I would love nothing more than to be able to invent potions that could just chase away the blues.”* But… Whisky already exists. 😉 And so do SSRIs.

Ugghhh no matter how many times I watch this episode, it always hits me hard. It's a really well done episode, mixing humor and strong emotions and letting us see Luz make mistakes that are bad(like lying/keeping the truth from others) but also fully fit her personality(not wanting to worry others, not wanting to stress over it, trying to only focus on the positives). Also, Dana has stated in the past that the higher ups initially wanted Luz to present in a more feminine style, like with a dress/skirt type of outfit and her answer was pretty much: "No. I made this character in this style for a reason.

Losing a close family membet at a young age is something that seems to be pushed out of every day life.

They don't say it, but it is so unrepresented in our society that people don't seem to have a contact to this.

You are pretty good at predicting this show: first V`s origin and now her dad`s funeral. These kind of emotional episodes i can only watch one at a time. Guten Rutsch.

This episode was heartbreaking but also heartwarming in some ways too, Happy New Year Mosco and other commenters, hope it's filled with all the best things for y'all!

This episode is an absolute pain for me. My absolute biggest fear is death and my loved ones dying, and when I have 4 grandparents, it’s only a matter of time, and it terrifies me. This episode just makes me think of that and it hurts, just a hit to the heart

Can't wait for the finale, when Belos uses a bird to try and abduct King, but the safety-hover glyph saves him.

[@zoeholmes4939]

The code word for this episode is 'Rush', leaving the message at 'Seething Seas and Puppet Strings, He No Longer Dreams of Kings. As Above Rush-" and you've made it to the next episode title word 'Fear', leaving that message at 'Seek The Key, Fear-' And yes, that was Darius in the photo!

When the abomination alarm is going off Luz said "get out of my head" which I've guessed was one of two things. Either Luz wanted to get the phone alarm out of her head, or the sound of the ambulance that probably picked her dad up. Great little detail.

I can't wait to see the look on your face when Alador gets kicked out of his own house and has to move in on Eda's couch

17:39 I feel you on the clothes thing. I grew up as a "tomboy" . I preferred clothes from the boy's section rather than the girls. It was more comfy and more my style. I didn't like "cute", pink, tight/frilly stuff. I preferred darker colors and things with a cool design like a flaming skull, not something that had Minnie Mouse on it. 😒 I still buy t-shirts & hoodies from the guy section.

7:29 Cool Aunt Lilith fingers!

(At 19:18) it was at _that_ moment… she realized… she fucked up.

[@WinterLynne94]

About the lack of judgement toward Amity and Luz's relationship; Dana Terrace has said that homophobia just doesn't exist in the Boiling Isles. You're free to love whoever you want to there. I'm also glad they didn't go down the "father is absent because he doesn't care" route with Alador. He's just seriously overworked. He also gets distracted by anything he finds interesting, as seen with a butterfly and Bump's Palisman. But he loves his kids. As seen here, he's willing to drop whatever he's doing if he thinks his kids are in trouble. In short, I adore Alador. His wife, however. . . You'll see.

I love the name Flapjack ❤. Also I feel so bad for Luz. I'm glad she was able to her tradition with Amity ❤

[@saoirsecameron]

So Edric’s potion “accident” is actually super important. It ends up being a serum that can revive the Titans, and Belos tries to get his hands on it to resurrect an army of them to pogrom all the witches.

[@residentfan1521]

Man Luz really freaked out when those sirens went off. I wonder if that’s significant in some way?

[@kevinmorris4133]

Did you notice that the vase Camila put the flower in was abomination colors? It's little details like that that make this such an amazing story! I can't wait for the next episode!!!

[@feliperuiz7458]

To realize that Luz's father died remembered me to my grandpa who died on 2015 and he was the only father that i met, also to my dog which died some months ago

[@arcticbanana66]

Yep, Ed's bat is the same one from the Season 1 episode. He named it Batrick.

[@ProdigalDaughterAlice]

Everyone’s already commented about the important stuff, so I just want to take a moment to laugh about the weird rivalry between Alador and Darius. Back in ep 7 Darius called Alador a hack, in this one we see him booing him in the old Brawl photo, but then in the scene when Alador’s talking to Amity at the beginning he has a *signed copy* of a book by Darius… which he makes a face at and has his Abomaton destroy to demonstrate it protecting Amity. It just makes me giggle so much, they’re pushing fifty and they act like such children about each other. (I have my own theories as to why but I won’t mention, lol)

[@Samgreen90]

(At 19:50) I wonder if this really makes him look like a badass (spewing a jetstream of fire)?

[@amidoshi03]

... Yep One of my favourite episodes of any show, ever. And then that happens. The amount I cried when I first watched it is definitely something else 😭

[@TriXJester]

Since I didnt see anyone point it out, the bat on Ed's shoulder is not a palisman, it's from the episode where Luz discovered the Ice Glyph while training on the Knee. He caught it and wanted to keep it as a pet and his sisters tried to get him to get rid of it cus it "would bite him" turns out he really did keep it as a pet, it was also a really early hint at his desire to do beastkeeping magic
