I never really liked this episode. I liked the idea of Scott revisiting an old friend from his past but this episode seemed to botch that up. It wasn't that compelling and the villain wasn't even interesting. The episode seemed to drag abit and just didn't provide any real threat. Toad seemed more of a threat in this episode than the main villain.
