This one kinda felt like filler, or at least fluff, to me. The whole storyline with Odd and Kiwi being merged was kinda lame and didn't really advance the storline/plot at all. About the only thing that didn't feel like filler was the bit about the William "clone's" stupidity causing problems. To me that sets up the next episode, "A Lack of Goodwill", which focuses on the William clone and its shortcomings, nicely.

Hmm, not as good as the previous episode but I'm sure fans who like Kiwi will dig this episode.

Oh you can say that again. Wow, this episode was a drag. They've done the scanner mishap so often, but at least it was interesting. Scratching at fleas and dropping his pants in front of Aelita? He never did sprout a tail, so what was the point? I can't believe Sissi has been reduced to peaking around corners. At least before, when she was bad, she was good at it. This one really makes me think they simply have no idea how to make a story around Odd anymore. :sad:

That actually didn't bother me. In fact it made sense. Sissi's figured out something is wrong with William (mainly the fact that the William clone is denser than she is), she just doesn't know what. What she does know is it started when William began hanging out with the Lyoko gang. So she's trying to figure out what's going on. That's part of why I think the only meaningful part of this episode was the foreshadowing for the next episode. Yeah she could have tried getting someone else to follow them (Herb & Nicholas or Millie and Tamiya?), but what's the point, especially since the gang's been able to keep William from screwing up by the numbers (or at least RTTP when he does).

Then again that may have something to do with the fact that I don't think Sissi's really evil. Just a spoiled pain in the bum who's still got a crush on Ulrich.

I liked the idea of Kiwi going on Lyoko. But not as part of Odd. At least this time Kerenie is not responsible for the virtualization error. Odd being all dog like was fun to watch.

Agreed. I also liked William's wardrobe change (even if he was the dummy clone)

[devotedfriend]

what i don't understand is why didn't odd put the dog into another scanner i knew something was going to go wrong from the start w/kiwi in odd's shirt.

If they offered Sissi a chance to become a Lyoko Warrior, she'd call them all crazy, and report them to the proper authorities, but not before a Return to the Past.

[devotedfriend]

i don't think sissi will ever become a lyoko warrior. also i don't think she would go to the "proper authorities" since she has a thing for Ulrich.

Finally watched the 3 most recent Lyoko eps on my DVR(Still got 9 Bo-bobo to go). Wasn't too bad of an ep, but i wanted to see Kiwi Lyoko style

[kirschy]

I think that's one of the reasons (the other being she's annoying) why Ulrich hates her so much. For those who haven't seen Xana Awakens Sissi was with Ulrich when he found out about Lyoko. She, Ulrich, and Odd promised not to tell anyone about the supercomputer, but after a run in with a little electric monster Sissi brought Jim and her father to the factory.

I liked this episode. I liked how they had 3 things goin' at once: Yumi fighting the XANA-possessed bikers, Aelita and Ulrich against William and trying to deactivate the tower, and Jeremy trying to fix Odd's dog problem.

I can't wait till the next new episode. I read the summary for it, and it looks like my William vs. William theory's gonna come true!:anime: Hiya!

you know what i still don't understand? why is it that when they are devirtualized they can't return to lyoko for the rest of that day? that has baffled me since the very 1st episode "teddygodzilla"

I think they said something about there being a 30 minute waiting period between possible trips to Lyoko. According to Wikipedia the reason for the waiting period is exhaustion from the materialization/dematerialization process.

hey do any of you guys think that xana has a true form and more power than he's letting on? if so please let me know via Private Message not on this thread(please).

Correction: hated. If you haven't noticed, Ulrich has toned down considerably on Sissi ever since Season 2, either being respectful toward her or, if she's being a pain, simply ignoring her alltogether rather than get into a conflict. My guess would have to be that part of it stems toward him realizing that he doesn't come across as such a likeable person himself and that holding a grudge against someone for their past flaws or actions is downright stupid and (in his case) hypocritical.

I stand corrected. I'm still working on season 3. I just assumed that in season 4 Ulrich wasn't as hard on Sissi because Odd and Aelita were getting the shots in first. In a way I'm glad to see that Ulrich is at least forgiving, even if he isn't forgetting.

[Kagetsu]

what i don't understand is why didn't odd put the dog into another scanner i knew something was going to go wrong from the start w/kiwi in odd's shirt.Jeremie was not going to buy into that. The idea of Odd's was to sneak Kiwi past Jeremie,,, he just dousn't understand you can't put two entities into the same scanner. Which I found completely insane from the fact that what they wear into the canners, is not what they virtualize with. By now they should all know that it has to within the program parameters, and they're dang lucky to get through it alive in the first place. (the major reason "adults wouldn't even bother)


i don't think sissi will ever become a lyoko warrior. also i don't think she would go to the "proper authorities" since she has a thing for Ulrich. When Ulrich is with her, she will do anything. But she doesn't like the others and she will follow her own motives. It makes her unreliable and not a good part of an all or nothing group.

Source Article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanner_%28Code_Lyoko%29)The closest Jeremie has come to it is to tell Ulrich he's crazy to return so soon after being Devirtualised. The physical trauma is suggested, but the writers haven't nailed it down yet.

I think he see's what Sissi can be when she can, but she can't be relied on. Sometimes she does something other than he expects.
