Fun fact: in the original book Percy saw the water below him and jumped from the arch. This makes no sense because, unknown to the author at the time, the St. Louis Arch doesn't actually sit directly over the Mississippi. In order for Percy to have made it from the arch, he would've had to be falling at like a 30 degree angle all the way down. Hence why, in this series, they changed it so he fell and the river reached out to grab him.

I think my favorite way I've ever seen Athena described is "Ares with braincells". Also, Athena is technically one of the maiden goddesses, so in my head, I've always imagined that Athena admires her kids' mortal parents- their intelligence, their potential, etc.- and bases her brain-children off of that. I don't usually think of her as having any sort of romantic or sexual relationship with mortals, it's more of an appreciation/respect/friendship that she wants to honor.

Yeah, it was Nereid the one that talked to Percy (not a mermaid since they aren't in greek mythology nor a Siren), although it seems that she was in disguise as some kind of Jellyfish, she is actually a sea goddess. In the books she looked like Percy's mom, so it was a nice touch that she said the same words as Sally did to young Percy in the flashback. The Nereids are the 50 sea goddess, one of them being Poseidon's wife Amphitrite. It is kinda interesting that Poseidon sent one of his sisters in law to save Percy.

So lets clarify something that was said in the beginning....because people making incorrect statements as if they are facts makes my eye twitch and because I have no life....Aaron is right, drowning is what happens through the inhalation of liquid (for this example). When you are underwater holding your breath...you do so until your unconscious, then your body automatically tries to breathe.....Water gets in your lungs and you drown. You will never see a case where someone "drowned" in water and their lungs are dry. Its actually not possible, under normal conditions, to die from holding your breath.

@miraaranel7 ай бұрын
Just to add to this, your body has a breathing reflex that will kick in as carbon dioxide increases in the body (this is why some people hyperventilate/breath quickly before freediving - this increases oxygen and decreases carbon dioxide in the body which allows you to trick your body into staying under water longer without this reflex kicking in), so you won't even be unconscious before you breathe in the water. There IS something called dry drowning but even that is from water in the lungs. It is a situation where you inhale water but are rescued from drowning and don't realize you have water on the lungs. People can die on land hours after the event due to "dry drowning".

I listened to a podcast interview with echidna's actress, and I think it's an example of how these showrunners are elevating the source material by an impressive amount. book echidna felt pretty throwaway for being one of the most powerful monsters the trio meets, and even without transforming or anything, series echidna really sells her power and her role is so well-tied to the family themes. the actress talked about how echidna in this episode is meant to contrast the godly parents; directly involving herself in her pup's development while the gods act distant to their children.. also love the arch being a temple to athena and how annabeth's 'punishment' proves medusa right in the end.. fun book fact; in the book, percy jumps off the arch and falls directly into the water- which was pointed out as being impossible.. when asked about it, rick riordan just admitted that he thought the arch was closer to the river and that it was a mistake😅 guess he got the chance to correct it here.

Up until this point in the show, I was pretty neutral towards Grover but he really starts to win me over this episode. Last week, this became my favorite episode! I love that they showed the Chihuahua because in the books it is a Chihuahua that grows into a Chimera in front of Percy's eyes and some humans. So when I saw the Chihuahua, I laughed so hard! "I thought it was over water" Rick thought the same thing than Calvin. He thought the Mississippi River was under the Arch so in the book he made Percy literally "plunge" to his death. So he rectified his mistake here by making Percy "fall to his death" instead and Poseidon saving him. Percy is scared and doesn't trust his dad, which is also why he falls through the hole and struggles to accept himself just like the water nymph said. Short episode (the runtime is all over the place) but love to see a longer discussion. Gods do suck as being parents! The Chimera is young. The design is awesome. Almost identical to the description in the book "head of a lion, body of a goat, snake tail". Here we have body and head of a lion, goat horns, reptilian tail and if you pause at the right time you can see its hind legs have hooves. Yes, Aaron is right. Based on what we are shown and told in the show so far, Athena is the Goddess of wisdom and battle strategy. Same as Eric and Calvin. I'm afraid of heights so a couple feet and I'm freaking out and vertigo kicks in. Not fun! Great reaction and discussion! Aaron only noticing the trident in the series title now LOL

He gets special training from the Luke the Hermes kid who is the camp’s best sword fighter. He learns several special moves including the switching move he pulls on Annabeth. The move makes a few appearances in the series. I don’t think this is how the arch scene plays in the books though

It is quite obviously a commentary on absent parents and just because they may give you life (or even power) doesn't mean they automatically deserve your respect, trust, or appreciation. That shit has to be earned and his friends earned it. His father is not his father, he is a man who dipped his wick in his mother and left. This is the second time this week (granted, I appreciate somethings are hugely filmed in advance) that Aaron has just stated something that is hugely weird and fundamentally wrong.

We have to remember that Ancient Greece wasn't a unified single culture. it was just how we referred to a collection of City-states in the area we now know also as Greece. and Gods were normally more worshipped in an individual basis. people mostly prayed to local gods or gods of things they regularly interact with, blacksmiths would have prayed to Hephaestus more than any other gods. Athena was the Godess of Athens, but she would have been worshipped in numerous different cults in different ways, which is how we get the different personas of Gods.

The majority of them have water in the lungs and are "wet drownings".

What!😂 if u passed out underwater your body would automatically try to breathe hence you’d breathe in water, if u held your breath on land you’d pass out and your body will automatically start to breathe but u wouldn’t die unless this happens in water 😂😂

I wish The Echidna, the Mother of all Monsters, had transformed like in the book. The Chimera transforming was still cool. But I wish Echidna also transformed. It would have been cooler.

You could argue that Zeus was considerate in the Iliad since he was convinced to allow Priam to take his son’s body back and have their funerary rights.

Good thing: apparently this is the shortest episode of the season Bad thing: you feel it heavily and makes what could be a great episode just okay They make up for it with episode 5 so I can’t really complain too much but damn. At least add 2-3 minutes at the end of this episode

It's kinda funny how Athena's symbol is an owl, when in reality owls aren't really smart birds. They are really good at what they do in nature but training them is super difficult. It would take them Weeks to learn what ravens and other corvids could learn in days xD That's what animal trainers on Harry Potter said.

Haha, it's so funny to hear someone say this because it's SO true! I work with raptors, and prefer a hawk or eagle any day over training an owl. They can get it, and can be very reliable birds (some of the most personable birds I've worked with were owls), but they are sooooo slow. With a hawk, you can ask something and they do it right away, sometimes they are even ahead of you. But with an owl, it's hard to even get them to look at you long enough to ask for a behavior. Then when they do, they are like the slowest animals on earth, even just to step up on a glove they are like a sloth. As an educator and caretaker though, I do like to tell people that owls don't necessarily need those problem-solving skills that other raptors and corvids need though. They are silent flyers, great eyesight, hunt at night, and are great flyers. Don't need to be smart when you got the physical adaptations to thrive.

@@kassidycolton63 I was going to say the same thing. I don't know anything about owls or birds in general so I don't know the real answer - but I think that viewing animal intelligence solely through the lense of "how easily can *we, humans,* teach them to follow *our* commands" is pretty flawed

@@kassidycolton63 Owls are definitely on the smarter end of animals, especially over things like reptiles and amphibians, but not anywhere near animals like parrots, dolphins, seals, etc. From personal experience, they are definitely easier than cats to train. They just get distracted easily, which is the big problem with them. They have great physical adaptations that allow them to be amazing solitary hunters. They don’t need the problem-solving skills or social skills to survive like a lot of “smarter” animals do.

@@pinsandneedles3 Animal intelligence is a super interesting thing in general. As someone who works in zoos (accredited zoos that function as places for conservation, education, and research), I find myself discussing this with visitors a lot. Owls may not be as “smart” as other birds, like parrots for example, but they have lots of physical adaptations that animals like parrots don’t have. Parrots rely on social groupings to survive, so having wide variety of communication, social skills, and problem-solving is very important to them. Owls are nocturnal hunters that have silent flight, amazing eyesight, and great hearing. They don’t need “intelligence” to be a successful species. I mean things like sponges and jellyfish are great examples of that! No “intelligence”, just some of the oldest animals on the planet. It’s an awesome conversation that I love to have with visitors and students. Also, training is just learning. All animals can learn. You can train fish, frogs, turtles, snakes, bears, cats, anything with a brain, you can train. Because everything with a brain “learns”. Some may not be able to comprehend certain things, but they all can be taught. It’s just like how a three-year-old might learn something a lot quicker than an adult with a basic skill. It’s not that the three-year-old is “smarter”, it’s just that however they were “trained” worked better for them. Lots of reasons why some animals can be trained a bit easier than others.
