I think part of the reason Sally is adamant to have Percy attend boarding school is, not just to protect him, but as a well-funded school they’d have more resources to help kids with dyslexia or ADHD. And it’s not explicitly stated, but I don’t think they have much money - meaning Sally has to work a lot and would struggle to make time to teach him properly.
Okay I totally didn’t even remember Sally is working full time!!! That totally slipped my mind so I get why she can’t homeschool Percy but didn’t get why he couldn’t go to a normal day time school. But ohhhhh I didn’t really realize the boarding schools were specifically good for Percy’s adhd and dyslexia and that normal schools couldn’t help him with that. That makes so much sense! Thank you so much for watching and letting me know!! 😊🤍
the misunderstanding of sally jackson in this video is vexing me so much. they have always been close, she doesn’t want to get rid of him. she has no choice, as a half blood (and child of the big three) he attracts attention/monsters. sending him to a boarding school (and living with a smelly man like gabe) are sacrifices she makes to keep him as safe as she can (masking his scent as much as possible). Plus it’s a special school for kids with learning disabilities which she mentions in the car scene but idk if you didn’t catch that. she also tells poseidon that “me and him alone in an apartment” isn’t enough to not attract said attention). also also how can she home school him as an overworked single mom (something he can’t fully understand despite wanting because he’s a literal child and now that he’s older, he has so much more perspective). this episode is all about percy realizing these sacrifices and overall a reflection on his mother and their relationship. her yelling at him in the car was definitely stern but she’s his mother not his friend, it’s part of her job description to make these choices he doesn’t fully grasp yet. idk why that would affect how to feel about her character or their relationship
Oh I totally understand Sally now!! I just didn’t understand her reasoning throughout the episode but at the end it all made sense. I didn’t really realize the boarding schools were specifically good for Percy’s adhd and dyslexia and that normal schools couldn’t help him with that. That makes so much sense! And she’s soooo smart for not wanting him anywhere near Gabe if she can help it. That detail from the books about why she’s with him is so crazy and sad for Sally but she’s so brave to put up with him just to protect Percy omg. It’s just so sad that Percy couldn’t understand all those reasons for everything Sally was doing because she really was doing everything she could to protect him. Thank you so much for watching and commenting! 😊🤍
And her yelling at him as at the end of long drive with Percy throwing a tantrum about going to school the whole way. She was just putting her foot down
As someone who has ADHD and a mother who sometimes got mad like Sally Jackson, I loved this scene. It’s hard for parents to parent, and they’re human too. I love my mom and I’m glad they showed Sally being upset but still show what an awesome mom she is.
Saaaame, this episode definitely showed how hard it is for Sally to be the amazing mom she is on the outside but still struggle so much on the inside. I loved that they showed her human side, it made me have even more empathy for her. 🤍
On the question of boarding school: On top of what everyone else has said, we don’t get into Sally’s head in the books, but I’ve always assumed part of the reason she sends Percy away to boarding school is that she had her reasons for marrying Gabe, but she also knew he was terrible and was trying to minimize the time Percy had to spend with him
OH MY GOSH wow I didn’t even think about that!! I was glad Percy didn’t have to spend that much time with Gabe but I didn’t think about Sally doing that on purpose. That’s sooo smart of her and of you to realize that, I love that. Thank you so much for watching!! 🤍
22:00 For some reason, I don't think that they say this in the show, but in the book, it's explained that Ares placed an enchantment on the backpack that made it so that the Master Bolt would only appear once they were in the Underworld. Love your reactions!
It more the backpack is really the master boat's sheathed transformed, the master bolt naturally returns to it, Ara more found away to delay it return rather findxaway to sent it to a normal backpack
In the books, there actually was a three headed dog, Cerberus, and Annabeth used a ball to distract it while Percy and Grover passed through the line. Cerberus was also a really good dog in the book and it liked playing with Annabeth and didn't want her to leave 😢
Noooo that’s so sweet but so sad!!!! I hope Annabeth gets a pet dog someday, or has a friend with pet dog she can visit. She seemed to love being around the dog in this episode and it was so sweet. Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 😊🤍
It's very jarring to hear Sally yell at Percy at first, but you also have to put yourself in her shoes. She's a single mother to a neurodivergent demigod child who is acting out because he's seeing things that are getting him kicked out of school and feels like he's being abandoned. She can't tell him why he's seeing things or why she has to send him away, so she has to internalize his outbursts alone because she has no one else to talk to about it. I took her raising her voice as her finally snapping under the pressure of all of it, and I really can't blame her.
I definitely took this scene as like Sally’s lowest parenting moment and definitely did not get the impression that this usually happens. Like you said, I think she snapped under the pressure and I totally understand. That doesn’t make it any less out of line or tragic for Percy, but I have soooo much empathy for Sally Jackson. Like Poseidon said, she has no one to talk to and that might be the most unfair part of it. I LOVED that line so much. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!! 😊🤍
Thank You! Well said!As a mother of a 6 year old with ADHD I keep shaking my head at Reactors thinking that Sally is being a mean, bad mom here. Parents get frustrated and raise their voices sometimes. And I actually thought her line was really good. I have dealt with my kid not wanting to go to school and I've told them "I'm sorry but you don't have a choice. You have to go but you do have a choice in how you behave. You can choose to have a bad or good day."
@@DorkQueen23 my mom had to raise four neurodivergent children while going through a divorce, so I have first and second hand experience with how rough it can be. It took so long to realize that she wasn't trying to ignore our individual needs, she just had her own struggles and couldn't balance them all. I think it's why I have so much empathy for Sally.
I saw an interview with the actor who plays young Percy and the interviewer made a comment about how contagious the kid’s smile was and this kid snaps back, “yeah, it would have been great to see it in the show, but everything was so sad all the time.”
Lol seriously all of his scenes were soooo tragic and sad! His acting was SO GOOD though like obviously I was literally moved to tears it was so good 👏 Thank you so much for watching!!
Percy and Sally were always close. This was 1 day when they had a fight. As kids and parents tend to do from time to time. Everyone has had days when if you saw them in isolation you wouldnt understand how they are so close with their parent, spouse, best friend. Every relationship has its rocky moments and every person has their low moments. This was that for Sally and Percy
Of course!! It made me so sad seeing Grover so stressed out and scared but he’s so brave for still going into the underworld to help Percy and save the world. Thanks so much for watching! 😊🤍
1) Cerberus (fluffy) was in the books. He didn't chase them, but he was getting ready to attack them before annabeth started playing with him 2) as a neurodivergent kid (different "issues" to percy but some of the base stuff is the same) most of us find it extremely difficult to go to any school, let alone a boarding one and sometimes the parents will just try to force you to go in, it doesn't make them bad parents or strict parents, it's just that they're trying to do the right thing but I think being neurodivergent makes most ppl really stubborn, but they also have greater empathy so effectively guiling them is literally the only way. In Sally and percys case they would both be in serious danger if he didn't go to school 3) Sally's effectively a single mother, she doesn't have the time or possibly even energy to homeschool percy, also assuming she was married to smelly gabe at that point she wouldn't want percy to face that every day (or to see that he physically abuses her, at least in the books) also they never explain why they're married in the show, but basically demigods have a smell that means monsters can track them, gabe smells so badly of mortal that he covers up the demigod smell, protecting percy everywhere he goes 4) (sorry this is so long) he can't go to normal school, he would be next level bullied
Aww Annabeth plays with the dog in the books too? That’s so sweet I love that. And I totally understand Sally now!! I just didn’t understand her reasoning throughout the episode but at the end it all made sense. And I didn’t even remember Sally is working full time!!! That totally slipped my mind so I get why she can’t homeschool Percy. And she’s soooo smart for not wanting him anywhere near Gabe if she can help it. That detail from the books about why she’s with him is so crazy and sad for Sally but she’s so brave to put up with him just to protect Percy omg. Thank you so much for watching and commenting! 😊🤍
I’m loving these reactions and about the boarding school thing something Percy says in the pilot “Am I troubled kid , yeah you could say that” they don’t explain it but in the books that’s a reference to the fact that Yancy academy is a school for troubled kids and Percy explains to the reader that he ended up there because he’s been kicked out of every school he’s ever been to. I don’t know if that’s still canon in the show but I think that’s part of why he goes to boarding school. So excited to watch the finale with you! 💕🎀
I’m so happy you’re loving my reactions!! 🤩 And yeah I didn’t remember that Percy’s probably been in a BUNCH of different boarding schools just to stay safe over the years, which is so sad for both him and Sally. I LOVED episode 8 and can’t wait to upload that reaction so soon! Thanks so much for watching and commenting 😊🤍
Sally is an amazing mum, but she's still human. I mean we all have fights with our parents occasionally, right? Doesn't mean we don't love them just as much or forgive each other if something is said in anger or frustration. Anyway, really enjoyed the reaction! Can't wait for episode 8!
YESSSS totally! 👏 I understand Sally was trying to protect Percy now with the school but it’s all just so sad the way it happened, especially with Percy not understanding why. But there literally was not much Sally could do to change things and she was seriously trying her best. I love her so much!!! I’m so happy you enjoyed my reaction and I can’t wait to start editing my reaction to episode 8 asap! Thank you so much for watching and commenting 😊🤍
2:44- Yes, yes, and yes. Death from “Supernatural” is playing Percy’s cousin. 3:09- Because A- that’s book-accurate, and, B- that’s the closest they could get to truly myth accurate Procrustes. He had an iron bed on Mount Korydallos-a sacred path between Athens and Eleusis (another city in Greece; the more you know)-and when people lay down, he would stretch them to fit the bed perfectly, or chop off whatever didn’t fit if they were too tall… 6:31- Bear McCreary (dope name, BTW, if you ever read this, Mr. McCreary) has done the music for both Agents of Shield and this, and I think I saw that he’s coming back for the second season! 11:37- Those are all people going to the Underworld. If I remember right, movie 1 did this part much the same way. 12:37- I think that the Knitting Ladies were supposed to help throw us off to the fact that Percy was alive in the water. I may be wrong, but, that was how I took it. 14:08- You’ll meet another really great monster character in the next season. Can’t wait for you to see him because I know you’ll love him. 19:15- Athena is the goddess of wisdom and battle strategy, so it’s assumed that Annabeth would have already tried using her dagger which is made of the same material as Percy’s. If she couldn’t get through, he knows Riptide wouldn’t be able to either. 22:02- I think it’s similar to the shoes. Ares magic-ed it so that it would show up in their bag right as they went into the pit. 25:07- I think he eventually realized that, even if he can’t know everything at that moment, Sally will always be doing her best, and that is something that not a lot of people can say. 27:55- Yes! Kronos is the Dementor!! And he’s the big bad!!! Myth time: so Kronos is the father of the gods, and then he ate them all. Zeus had to cut them all out, and Kronos has been in Tartarus ever since. But the Thief (I know you know, Sarah, but in case somebody else doesn’t know) is working with Kronos, and so he’s trying to get the Bolt to Kronos so that Kronos can start a war and take over Olympus again, because the Thief is very strong in their belief that the gods are bad rulers…and parents. 30:43- Top two best acted scenes in this show without debate, IMO. (I don’t know if it’s flat out “the best” because the betrayal is just so well acted too, but still…) 32:45- Yep! Hephaestus! (Which, if anyone else watched Psych on and off like I did when I was young, it was great to see Lassie :). ) 32:57- You can say many things about Sally Jackson, but you cannot say that she wouldn’t give the world to Percy if he wanted it. Her methods in this episode suck-I will give you that-but she honestly doesn’t know how to do any better. The show doesn’t mention this, but have you wondered why a Queen like Sally is living with (and, in the books and the OG movie, I believe married to) someone as terrible as Gabe? The books have an excellent explanation: Gabe smells so bad that he literally covers up Percy’s monster-attracting smell. So, not only does she have to put up with all the verbal abuse, but she also has to deal with all the abuse to her nose as well. And she does it ALL for Percy. 33:47- Thunder rolls because it’s Zeus’s warning that he’s already been down there for too long. Thunder always come after lightning, and lightning is one of Zeus’s things, so that is the subtle way of Zeus telling Poseidon: “get back up here NOW. You can’t allow yourself to get attached…” 35:21- I have been under the impression that this is the same beach as Ep. 1. Someone more knowledgeable can correct me if I’m wrong.
That’s so crazy we got a PJO and SPN actor crossover! Wow seriously?? That’s so cool that’s so close to real mythology! YESSS WE LOVE BEAR MCCREARY!!!!!! His talent is iconic. Gotcha, that’s smart that the knitting ladies were to throw us off track. Ohhhhh I can’t wait to meet more monster characters!!! Exactly, Sally was alwaysssss doing her best 100% and we love and respect her for that. I DID NOT REALIZE Kronos literallyyyy ate the gods omg 🤯 That’s terrifying. Kronos is definitely worse than the gods in comparison. The Sally and Poseidon scene had me almost in tears the acting was PHENOMENAL!!! I’m a HUGE Psych fan and rewatch the series every single summer and recognized Lassie immediately and have NO IDEA why I didn’t talk about it lol I think I thought it was off topic but yessss I love psych and Lassie sooo much!!! I literally wondered why and how Sally could end up with a dirtbag like Gabe since we saw him in the first episode so the fact that it was all for Percy is so tragic and amazing at the same time. We love Sally Jackson here. I figured the thunder was Zeus warning him!!!! I love your comments so much!! Thank you so much for watching and commenting 🤩🤍
I am so happy to see that you really liked this episode as i really didn't as they changed a lot of stuff from the book but the fact that you liked the episode means the writers knew what they were doing.
That’s so interesting they changed a lot from the books, I didn’t know that. I LOVED this episode!! The writing and everything was incredible. Thanks so much for watching 😊🤍
As other people said It is not that Sally wants to leave Percy, but she wants him to have the best experience out of what is happening. She cannot do home schooling because 1) She is the breadwinner of her home and has to work all day 2) She wants Percy to have a normal life, she wants him to have friends and live as a normal kid. She prefers to send him to a school that is prepared to manage his ADHD and dislexia to make this experience easier for him. I do agree that maybe Percy had to hide and accept those moments and think that Sally was just doing the best she could (and she was), and this probably made them have the relationship they have now. Part of growing up is understanding some of the decisions our (good) parents made to raise us, and in my opinion this is what happened to Percy, he understood the sacrifice and effort that Sally had to make through the years for him to have the best life he could.
Oh I totally understand Sally now!! I just didn’t understand her reasoning throughout the episode but at the end it all made sense. And I didn’t even remember Sally is working full time!!! That totally slipped my mind so I get why she can’t homeschool Percy but didn’t get why he couldn’t go to a normal day time school. But ohhhhh I didn’t really realize the boarding schools were specifically good for Percy’s adhd and dyslexia and that normal schools couldn’t help him with that. That makes so much sense! I love that Percy knows Sally well enough to know she would only do those things if she thought it would help Percy and be good for him. His trust in her and understanding is so amazing because Sally deserves it. She really was doing everything she could for him. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!! 😊🤍
20:36 that would be Tartarus, it’s the deepest part if the underworld and its where the titans were imprisoned along with other ppl/creatures who were like the worst of the worst 28:08 Kronos was killed with his own scythe after he ate his children, and is in Tartarus
I think that Sally is a human going through a really tough time as a single mother. Regardless of Percy being a demigod, that's a REALLY hard position to be in, and she deserves a lot of grace because parenting is tough, and isn't handled perfectly all the time because no one is perfect. Like yeah Percy is having a tough time, but he's being a bit of a brat, which is within his right, he's learning to manage his emotions, but Sally is really struggling too.
Totally I LOVED that this episode showed Sally’s human side showing how hard it is being such an amazing mother on the outside while struggling so much on the inside. I have so much empathy and love for Sally Jackson 🤍 Thanks so much for watching!! 😊
About the Boarding school thing, In the books, they have a conversation about it in the books, and Sally pretty much says that she had to send him a way for his own protection that she thought he’d be safer that way, and says that she was selfish for wanting to keep him near her. You’ll be Happy to hear though that after the first book Percy stays with Sally
Omg I’m sooo glad they have a conversation about it in the books!!!! The saddest part is the fact that Percy couldn’t know and understand what Sally was doing and going through so I’m so glad they could talk about it now. And I’m SO happy Percy stays with Sally after book 1! Does he go to normal school after book 1? It seemed like it in the finale. Thank you so much for watching and letting me know 😊🤍
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns Hi again, I read all the books just to be clear, and yes Percy returns to normal school, but he won’t stay there for much longer.
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns also when this conversation takes place is when they’re at the Beach but, a difference in the book is that Sally doesn’t actually tell Percy about him being a demigod there, they still get chased to camp by the Minotaur and everything but Percy doesn’t know anything about him being a demigod until Chiron and Annabeth tell him. So he doesn’t understand when the confer happens what she’s protecting him from but I feel like it definitely helped him understand her more after he found out about everything.😁😁 ( I think she meant to tell him about the whole demigod thing she just didn’t get the chance in the book)
One of the things from the books I was most disappointed they changed was the "Gates to the Underworld" being like airport gates. There's three lines, one for the really bad people going to the Fields of Punishment, and one for the really heroic ones going to Elysium. But the line for the middle of the road people is the fastest moving, so it's called the "EZ Death Line."
I literally literally can’t wait to see ur reaction to the finale !! ur like my favorite pjotv reactor and i look forward to every single one of ur videos and i love how you’ve been loving this show cause it’s really special to me and to get to see people like you enjoying it for the first time and appreciate it means a lot! Anyway this episode is amazing like top three of the season for me cause it’s just have so many great moments, sally and poseidon’s flashbacks were truly EVERYTHING and i just think their relationship is so sad like the fact that no matter how much poseidon wants to be a part of her life or percy’s life, he just can’t do anything about it (btw the thunder you hear when sally asked him if he wanted to talk to percy was basically zeus saying “NO”) and the fact that he still came the second sally needed him is so 🥲 and don’t get me wrong he’s still pretty bad but the show really made me see him differently than in the books. Also with sally and the boarding school thing is so sad too, i think she was just trying her best to protect him cause she obviously wants percy to be with her more than anything but no matter how much she wants it she just knows she can’t cause it is really dangerous and she’s just trying her best to protect him like she said “sometimes i have to make choices that you may not understand” and is really sad for percy cause at that moment he really didn’t understand and thought his mom just didn’t want him around :( anyway i could talk forever but this comment is long enough 😭 so impatient for the next video! hope you like it 🫶🏻
OH MY GOSH That means soooo much to me you have no idea, thank you!!!!!! 🤩🤍 SO true about Poseidon wanting to be a part of Sally and Percy’s life but he just can’t and that’s so tragic. They would make an amazing family. The fact that he came in person when he knew Sally really needed him was so good in my eyes, I reallyyy loved their scene together!! And I understand Sally was trying to protect Percy now with the school but it’s all just so sad the way it happened, especially with Percy not understanding why. But I love Sally so much. I LOVEDDDDD episode 8 and can’t wait to start editing my reaction video to it asap!!!! Thank you so much for watching and commenting 🥰
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns omg so glad you loved it, can’t wait to see the reaction to it!! i just know i’m gonna love it cause one thing i love about you that other ppl don’t have is how you notice these little hidden details about the show and the characters too and comment on them and it is exactly what i think and ughhh i love it so much! and i totally get the sally thing, when i watched it for the first time i was CRYING, when percy said “why are you trying so hard to get rid of me” i was about to end it all 😭 and ugh don’t get me started on poseidon cause the show actually made me feel guilty for liking him in the scenes he’s in cause i know he’s technically not a good person (well he’s not a person but you know) but the way they portray him in the show… i couldn’t help it; THAT ONE SCENE IN EP 8 WITH HIM BYE
Remember to comment ALL your thoughts on this amazing episode 7!! 🤩 The highlights of the episode for me was the “Hold Fast, Mom” quote, the emotional Sally and Poseidon conversation, and the POWERFUL cliffhanger before the Percy and Ares fight!! 🔥 I have already filmed my reaction to Percy Jackson episode 8 so that video will be out so soon too!! This is my longest and most in depth reaction video yet, I just had so many emotions and so much to say and it was sooo fun so thank you so much for watching!! 🥰
I think there was a line you missed -- which is totally natural and understandable, by the way! Unlike us, you have to talk and look at the camera while watching; and also you can't just rewind if you didn't catch something like the rest of us can. But anyway: in the car, Sally said _"Dr. Higgins said this is the best school. The best Program in the State for kids with learning differences. We were very lucky to get in."_ I'm assuming that Dr. Higgins is a Psychiatrist they know, probably the one who at the time was currently helping Percy. So I don't think that she was pushing Percy away. She also wasn't sending him to just any boarding school. She was sending him to the best school she could possibly have found to get him the best learning experience possible. And Homeschooling would never have been acceptable to her, because that would mean a severely limited exposure to the wider, human world; which in turn would mean that Percy wouldn't learn who he is before getting to Camp and "[Poseidon's] family trying to tell him who they want him to be". Percy, of course, was like 7 or so and would never have been able to understand all that. Finally, I think that Hermes' line is important here: _"Have you ever been close to the people you love and you know that you have no choice but to keep hurting each other?"_ Note the "each other" there. Hermes, the God who can see all of Time and Space, already knew that Sally Jackson had no choice but to hurt Percy by sending him to the Boarding School; just as Percy had no choice but to hurt Sally due to feeling betrayed and saying hurtful things born from that feeling of betrayal.
I totally understand Sally now!! I just didn’t understand her reasoning throughout the episode but at the end it all made sense. That line definitely didn’t stick with me much at the time. I didn’t really realize the boarding school was specifically good for Percy’s adhd and dyslexia and that normal schools couldn’t help him with that. That makes so much sense! It’s just so sad that Percy couldn’t understand the reasons for everything Sally was doing because she really was doing everything she could to protect him. Thank you so much for watching and commenting! 😊🤍
julian richings i saw a panel of his online.. what a acting talent indeed. its nice to see people play iconic roles that mirror another role they played... and that opening scene.. and posiedon showing up AHHHHHHmy emotions
The underworld is not hell, this concept was created with hollywood movies, but in Mythology, the underworld is both hell and heaven, heaven = Isles of Elysium, Hell = Tartarus and Camps of punishment, and the Camps of Asphodel is the place were all people who accomplished nothing in life waist their afterlife, also in mythology and in the PJ books, the Underworld is described with black and green, no fire or lava or magma at all. About the dead people, they keep their body, even after death.
And the dog is Cerberus the guardian of the underworld. And the 3 headed creature in the movies is the Hydra, that didn't appears in the first season or book.
From what I can remember from the books the main reason why Sally was so insistent on Percy going to school is because it was harder for monsters to track him when he wasn’t home. She was trying to protect him and also probably wanted to keep him away from Gabe who was more clearly abusive in the books.
I totally get Sally trying to protect Percy now by having him go to boarding school but didn’t realize the monsters could even track him easier if he was at home. That’s interesting! And omg Sally is sooo smart for not having Percy anywhere near Gabe if she could. I love that and can’t believe how many reasons there were for boarding school. It’s so sad that Percy couldn’t understand them. Thank you so much for watching and letting me know! 😊🤍
The underworld in the show is very true to the underworld in Greek mythology, you're hearing underworld and you're thinking Christian Hell, but the two don't correlate, the underworld is where ALL the dead go to, both good and evil and everyone in between. the same goes to Hades, you hear king of the underworld and think the devil (made worse by Hollywood depictions that do the same correlation) but that couldn't be farther then the truth. In Greek mythology Hades is actually one of the better gods, In that this show is actually one of the best depictions of him I ever saw, he's not evil, his job is to watch over and take care of the souls of the dead.
Oh WOW really?? That’s all so cool, I love learning about the different mythologies!! That’s especially interesting about Hades being one of the good gods. Thanks so much for watching and explaining that! 😊
I love this show so much I can’t wait to see your reaction to episode 8. My favorite part where is Sally and Poseidon talk about Percy. For how Percy and Sally relationship we might get more answers in season two and more hopefully but I think as Percy saw more and more things that no one else saw the only person he could confide in was Sally. If you have thought about reading the books I would suggest that you do they are all so good. I love them all.
Yayyy I’m so glad you’re enjoying my reactions!! The Sally and Poseidon scene was INCREDIBLE. And I love your theory that Percy and Sally grew closer over the years especially because she was the only person he could confide in, that’s so true! I’m so excited to read the first book now and vlog that journey!! 🤩 I’m gonna read each book after reacting to each season. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!! 🤍
@@shaunessyfeeneyOMG that means so much to me you have no idea!!! I love Percy Jackson so much and love watching it with you. Thank you so much for being here and watching!! 🥰
Oh I totally understand that now!! I just didn’t understand her reasoning throughout the episode but at the end it all made sense. Thanks so much for watching 😊🤍
In the books, Crusty actually gets Annabeth and Grover into the waterbeds and Percy tricks him into getting into one as well, then lobs off his head. LET PERCY BE UNHINGED DISNEY (jk I do love the show still lol)
OMG WHAT??? 😅 Gosh the books are definitely more risky than the show. I can’t wait to start reading the first book now and vlog that now that I’ve filmed my reaction to episode 8!!
12:40 In the books, the fates cutting the string was a foreshadow of a certain character's fate in the great prophecy (which they will probably talk about next season, but the great prophecy is what all 5 books lead up to). But also in the book, Percy is the one that sees the fates cut the string closer to the beginning when he is on his way home from Yancy Academy. So since the tv show changed the timing and which character saw the string being cut, does it refer to something else now or is it still referring to the same thing? I'm not sure. My mind ponders. Prophecies are mysterious things.
OHHHH that’s so interesting!! How they changed so much with the fates and who saw it and when and how that will affect the show. I can’t wait to find out! Thanks so much for watching and letting me know 😊
Some info on Procrusty. In the myths he would lead travelers into either a bed that is too long (where he would stretch them into their limbs popped off) or too short (where he would cut off their legs and/or head off). In the book both Annabeth and Grover were trapped by it, so Percy had to saved them by trapping Procrusty in those same traps and cutting off his head. In regards to the cousins comment. They are actually half brothers, but this is a little more complicated. In the books it is stated that gods don't have DNA, so campers don't see each other as blood family unless they are from the same cabin. Also just to make it clear, In greek mythology the underworld is not hell. It would be more correct to just say the underworld is the afterlife, and that hell purgatory and heaven are different sections there. The fates (the knitting ladies) are the ones cutting the string. I'll just say that the show might want you to think that Percy going gold was him dying, but book readers know better. In regards to Hades palace, it was a while since I read the book, but I think it was described as an upside down mount Olympus. About the master bolt in the book Percy notes that the closer he gets to the palace the heavier the backpack becomes, implying that a spell or something was placed so that the bolt would only appear in the underworld. Kronos is also the father of Zues Poseidon and Hades, he heard that one of his kids would one day overthrow him so he ate them when they were born. Zues escaped due to his mother made Kronos puck up his siblings and they defeated Kronos in the great titan war.
Woahhh this is all such great information!! Knowing the underworld is more of an afterlife makes a lot more sense. I can’t wait to find out what the fates were hinting at omg!! I love learning about all these details! Thank you so much for watching and letting me know 🤩🤍
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns glad to help. The only other thing I'll say is that what the fates were hinting at will take a while to happen so you are going to have to be patient.
34:05 Percy's actor grew a lot over the course of filming. He went from 5'1" to 5'7." So you can kinda tell the order of filming by his growth. He outgrew a few of the other actors including Clarisse so it's good that their fight was filmed early on.
Some fun things about the casting, Toby Stephen’s who plays Poseidon is Maggie Smith’s son! And the actor for Hephaestus is Timothy Omundson who you might recognize as Cain in Supernatural!
I would recommend watching the 4 minute video on the Theogony by @OverlySarcasticProductions , it explains the story of the gods and Kronos in a very digestible form (yes that is also a Kronos joke). Their Greek mythology videos are also very helpful for any other confusion you may have on the myths that influence the show. They’re funny and easy to understand, and also very informative. Hope this is helpful! 💜
That is SO helpful, I’ll definitely look that up!! I have such a hard time following multiple storylines and characters and plots for some reason. Thank you so much for watching and for the recommendation! 😊🤍
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns You’re welcome! I think knowing the stories gives you an edge on understanding things too, I hope next season they explain more of the myths behind the plot, because I think the lack of mythological explanation is one of the show’s few flaws.
In Greek mythology, Cerberus often referred to as the hound of Hades, is a multi-headed dog that guards the gates of the Underworld to prevent the dead from Leaving. -------------------- In Greek mythology, The Underworld is both Heaven and Hell. Generally speaking, the Greek Underworld can be thought of as being made up of three different regions; Tartarus - A Prison for Those who Pissed of the Gods also the Prison where the Titans where looked Away.} The Asphodel Meadows - The Asphodel Meadows was the region of the Underworld where the majority of the deceased would end up. The Elysium Field - Elysium was the home of the heroic, and the region of the Underworld most closely associated with paradise. Inhabitants of Elysium would spend an eternity of pleasure free from work and strife.
Woah gotcha this is all such great information!! Knowing the underworld is more of an afterlife for everyone makes a lot more sense. I love learning about all these details! Thank you so much for watching and letting me know 🤩🤍
Just to go over a bit of Greek mythology, the Titans ruled the world before the Olympians did. The ruler of the Titans was Kronos, who was infamous for eating his own children, including Zeus, Poseidon and Hades. Zeus was the only one to escape this fate. He eventually managed to trick Kronos into puking up Poseidon and Hades. After that, they formed an army and led a rebellion against the Titans, which they won. Kronos was chopped into a million pieces and thrown into the depths of Tartarus, the deepest, darkest part of the Underworld. He's been imprisoned in Tartarus ever since. Zeus's master bolt is the only weapon powerful enough to open the gates and allow Kronos to escape The three headed dog is Cerberus, who guards the gates to the Underworld itself. Hades' helm of darkness is a real item in Greek Mythology. It was made by the elder Cyclopes after he and his brothers freed them. The cyclopes also forged Zeus' master bolt and Poseidon's trident. Annabeth's cap I believe was invented for the book series
In Greek morphology Kronos is basically the „father of some gods like the big ones Zeus, Poseidon etc. and he swallowed and ate his children because he was afraid the will take him down and then they took him down 🙌🏻
I don’t think her reaction was that bad to him locking the door and talking back to her, and refusing to obey her. Is it fun to have to raise your voice sometimes and be stern with your kids? No. But she’s the adult and she has to teach Percy how to handle tough situations. One way or another he’s going to go to school, like she said it’s not a negotiation. So it’s his choice whether he says goodbye angry or not. We all have choices to make in the face of things we don’t want to do but nevertheless we must do them. I think she gets upset because she’s sad to leave him too and his behavior is making it so they can’t have a loving parting. I think in the previous episode Percy thought this memory was about how his mom had no choice but to hurt him by leaving him at school and then in this episode he’s realizing he hurt her too by his misunderstanding of her. So in some way they both hurt each other here.
I've seen that some people explain Sally's resoning pretty well. But thers anorther reason that it wasn't explains in the books, not straight forwad, but in books Gabe was way much worse. He was @busing Sally and Percy (Percy reveal it in line "he puch my lights out" or something like that. She propably want to proteck her son from Gabe too, and obviously from all the half-blood things too. Also she's absolutly queen, best mom ever. Even if sometimes she needs to yell at Percy.
OH NOOOO seriously?? 😅 That’s cool that the show stuck to mythology with having the dog go after Grover then but omg my heart stopped lol. Thanks so much for watching and letting me know! 🥰
I have had NO TIME to watch these so now I'm binging!! I was waiting to watch these hehe 2:24 yeahhh hes got a few murderous relatives (as you may have noticed) 3:02 well in the books it was the Hollywood side haha, they just get the map from the mattresses store. Plus a lot more peril from Crusty 10:09 scene made me cry too, i have a lot of family members with ASD including my little sister and i related to that scene so much. watching my mom make the toughest calls because she wanted what was best for her kid, even though it hurt and caused fights... close to home 11:10 ha! I think hed make Annabeth watch the MCU lol 11:59 allergic to being inconspicuous 😅 13:26 wellll Fluffy is based off of greek mythology Cerberus, but no it cant be solved so easily hehe. Though the bouncy ball worked wonders... in the books, she really bonded with the doggy and cried when she had to leave it :*( 15:29 hehehehehe i love this 16:29 yeah this scene also is really emotional for me, i remember watching my mom fight so hard to get my autistic little sister into a school that would be good for her. Shes gotten that response of "support we cant offer" more than once 20:54 i was screaming this too hehe!! 27:53 king of titans, lord of time... yeah the big big bad
Death from Supernatural is indeed playing Percy's MUCH older brother (in Greek mythology the majority of Poseidon's kids tend to be monstars or REALLY bad people, heroes are a small minority...)
Haha “MUCH older brother” 😂 That’s so crazy that’s the same actor! And that’s so interesting most turn out to be bad. Thank you so much for watching and commenting! 😊
LITERALLY 😂 That’s what I love about Percy and all three of the trio is they will sacrifice themselves for each other within a second. Their friendships are so amazing!
I KNOWWWW IT MAKES ME SO SAD FOR LITTLE PERCY!!!!!! 😭 Someone made the point that she worked a full time job so couldn’t homeschool and that normal schools couldn’t help him with his dyslexia, so I kinda understand why boarding school was the last resort, but it’s still soooo sad! 💔
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesignsI can't remember exactly why (I JUST returned the lightning thief to the library, my memory is awful), but there was something about it being for his protection? I know this next bit is probably a spoiler, but by the time this video has come out, you've probably already watched the last episode. I don't think this is said in the books, but I've always thought she sent him to boarding school to keep him safe from Gabe, and he is protected for a very long time just by living with him over the summer. Gabe is abusive, and while she married him to protect Percy, she still has to protect Percy from Gabe himself. (Anybody's who's read the books, please correct me if I'm wrong, it's been a while since I've read the entire series and my attention span is awful so I miss a lot of things when I read.)
@kae9793 That was always my understanding and interpretation. Gabe is so disgusting that his smell masks Percy all school year. Gabe is abusive and so Sally sends him away to protect him but every year something happens to Percy and he gets kicked out of the school and has to find a new one.
i love watching people react to pjo i was reading the first book while the show was coming out. the dog is Cerberus and he is in the books. Hades is nicer in the show. Poseidon is a better father in the show. Kronos is the father of Zeus, Poseidon, Hades and some other gods, Kronos is the titan god of time. He got a prophecy that one of his children will betray him so he literally ate his children a few eons ago but Hera hid Zeus so he wasn't eaten. then Zeus grew up and tricked him into puking them out, since they were gods they grew up and survived in Kronos stomach. Zeus then cut him to pices and dropped him into Tartarus the deepest pits of hell, also all monsters after killed go there for a while.
As coisas com o Percy e a Sally é bem como o Hermes disse, eles acabaram machucando um ao outro por causa das cisrcunstacias, não era o que nenhum dos dois queriam, mas não tinha outra opção alem do acampamento
I think part of the reason Sally is adamant to have Percy attend boarding school is, not just to protect him, but as a well-funded school they’d have more resources to help kids with dyslexia or ADHD. And it’s not explicitly stated, but I don’t think they have much money - meaning Sally has to work a lot and would struggle to make time to teach him properly.
Okay I totally didn’t even remember Sally is working full time!!! That totally slipped my mind so I get why she can’t homeschool Percy but didn’t get why he couldn’t go to a normal day time school. But ohhhhh I didn’t really realize the boarding schools were specifically good for Percy’s adhd and dyslexia and that normal schools couldn’t help him with that. That makes so much sense! Thank you so much for watching and letting me know!! 😊🤍
There also the fact Percy has never attended the same school two years in a row, cause something always happens to get him expelled
the misunderstanding of sally jackson in this video is vexing me so much. they have always been close, she doesn’t want to get rid of him. she has no choice, as a half blood (and child of the big three) he attracts attention/monsters. sending him to a boarding school (and living with a smelly man like gabe) are sacrifices she makes to keep him as safe as she can (masking his scent as much as possible). Plus it’s a special school for kids with learning disabilities which she mentions in the car scene but idk if you didn’t catch that. she also tells poseidon that “me and him alone in an apartment” isn’t enough to not attract said attention). also also how can she home school him as an overworked single mom (something he can’t fully understand despite wanting because he’s a literal child and now that he’s older, he has so much more perspective). this episode is all about percy realizing these sacrifices and overall a reflection on his mother and their relationship. her yelling at him in the car was definitely stern but she’s his mother not his friend, it’s part of her job description to make these choices he doesn’t fully grasp yet. idk why that would affect how to feel about her character or their relationship
Oh I totally understand Sally now!! I just didn’t understand her reasoning throughout the episode but at the end it all made sense. I didn’t really realize the boarding schools were specifically good for Percy’s adhd and dyslexia and that normal schools couldn’t help him with that. That makes so much sense! And she’s soooo smart for not wanting him anywhere near Gabe if she can help it. That detail from the books about why she’s with him is so crazy and sad for Sally but she’s so brave to put up with him just to protect Percy omg. It’s just so sad that Percy couldn’t understand all those reasons for everything Sally was doing because she really was doing everything she could to protect him. Thank you so much for watching and commenting! 😊🤍
And her yelling at him as at the end of long drive with Percy throwing a tantrum about going to school the whole way. She was just putting her foot down
As someone who has ADHD and a mother who sometimes got mad like Sally Jackson, I loved this scene. It’s hard for parents to parent, and they’re human too. I love my mom and I’m glad they showed Sally being upset but still show what an awesome mom she is.
Saaaame, this episode definitely showed how hard it is for Sally to be the amazing mom she is on the outside but still struggle so much on the inside. I loved that they showed her human side, it made me have even more empathy for her. 🤍
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns stan Sally Jackson for clear skin
On the question of boarding school: On top of what everyone else has said, we don’t get into Sally’s head in the books, but I’ve always assumed part of the reason she sends Percy away to boarding school is that she had her reasons for marrying Gabe, but she also knew he was terrible and was trying to minimize the time Percy had to spend with him
OH MY GOSH wow I didn’t even think about that!! I was glad Percy didn’t have to spend that much time with Gabe but I didn’t think about Sally doing that on purpose. That’s sooo smart of her and of you to realize that, I love that. Thank you so much for watching!! 🤍
22:00
For some reason, I don't think that they say this in the show, but in the book, it's explained that Ares placed an enchantment on the backpack that made it so that the Master Bolt would only appear once they were in the Underworld. Love your reactions!
It more the backpack is really the master boat's sheathed transformed, the master bolt naturally returns to it, Ara more found away to delay it return rather findxaway to sent it to a normal backpack
In the books, there actually was a three headed dog, Cerberus, and Annabeth used a ball to distract it while Percy and Grover passed through the line. Cerberus was also a really good dog in the book and it liked playing with Annabeth and didn't want her to leave 😢
Noooo that’s so sweet but so sad!!!! I hope Annabeth gets a pet dog someday, or has a friend with pet dog she can visit. She seemed to love being around the dog in this episode and it was so sweet. Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 😊🤍
She had a pet dog before she ran away from home, that how she learned the obedance school training
It's very jarring to hear Sally yell at Percy at first, but you also have to put yourself in her shoes. She's a single mother to a neurodivergent demigod child who is acting out because he's seeing things that are getting him kicked out of school and feels like he's being abandoned. She can't tell him why he's seeing things or why she has to send him away, so she has to internalize his outbursts alone because she has no one else to talk to about it. I took her raising her voice as her finally snapping under the pressure of all of it, and I really can't blame her.
I definitely took this scene as like Sally’s lowest parenting moment and definitely did not get the impression that this usually happens. Like you said, I think she snapped under the pressure and I totally understand. That doesn’t make it any less out of line or tragic for Percy, but I have soooo much empathy for Sally Jackson. Like Poseidon said, she has no one to talk to and that might be the most unfair part of it. I LOVED that line so much. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!! 😊🤍
Thank You! Well said!As a mother of a 6 year old with ADHD I keep shaking my head at Reactors thinking that Sally is being a mean, bad mom here. Parents get frustrated and raise their voices sometimes. And I actually thought her line was really good. I have dealt with my kid not wanting to go to school and I've told them "I'm sorry but you don't have a choice. You have to go but you do have a choice in how you behave. You can choose to have a bad or good day."
@@DorkQueen23 my mom had to raise four neurodivergent children while going through a divorce, so I have first and second hand experience with how rough it can be. It took so long to realize that she wasn't trying to ignore our individual needs, she just had her own struggles and couldn't balance them all. I think it's why I have so much empathy for Sally.
I saw an interview with the actor who plays young Percy and the interviewer made a comment about how contagious the kid’s smile was and this kid snaps back, “yeah, it would have been great to see it in the show, but everything was so sad all the time.”
Lol seriously all of his scenes were soooo tragic and sad! His acting was SO GOOD though like obviously I was literally moved to tears it was so good 👏 Thank you so much for watching!!
The kid himself called his role "baby Percey" he event learned to wear contact lens to play the role
Also in the books Percy lied to Charon and said they were dead. He said that they ‘drowned in a big bathtub’. I love this boi so much. 😭😭😭
OH MY GOSH 😂 That’s the first and best thing he could think of???? Percy’s the best lol
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns He’s so unhinged all the time
All three of them drowned...a large bathtub... and a bit old for siblingings sharing a bath
You know Kronos is a big deal when Hades is worried.
Yeah I got the feeling Hades is usually not afraid of much so when he instantly got scared of Kronos I got worried too
Percy and Sally were always close. This was 1 day when they had a fight. As kids and parents tend to do from time to time. Everyone has had days when if you saw them in isolation you wouldnt understand how they are so close with their parent, spouse, best friend. Every relationship has its rocky moments and every person has their low moments. This was that for Sally and Percy
"Son of Poseidon? His cousin? How does that work?" ...no. That makes him his half-sibling.
HAHAHA I almost said brother then got so confused because he’s so much older than Percy and “cousin” just came out 🤣
Well he older cause dad is an immortal God he's had a long time to have kids
I love that you realised grovers picking on the Horns!!
Of course!! It made me so sad seeing Grover so stressed out and scared but he’s so brave for still going into the underworld to help Percy and save the world. Thanks so much for watching! 😊🤍
1) Cerberus (fluffy) was in the books. He didn't chase them, but he was getting ready to attack them before annabeth started playing with him
2) as a neurodivergent kid (different "issues" to percy but some of the base stuff is the same) most of us find it extremely difficult to go to any school, let alone a boarding one and sometimes the parents will just try to force you to go in, it doesn't make them bad parents or strict parents, it's just that they're trying to do the right thing but I think being neurodivergent makes most ppl really stubborn, but they also have greater empathy so effectively guiling them is literally the only way. In Sally and percys case they would both be in serious danger if he didn't go to school
3) Sally's effectively a single mother, she doesn't have the time or possibly even energy to homeschool percy, also assuming she was married to smelly gabe at that point she wouldn't want percy to face that every day (or to see that he physically abuses her, at least in the books) also they never explain why they're married in the show, but basically demigods have a smell that means monsters can track them, gabe smells so badly of mortal that he covers up the demigod smell, protecting percy everywhere he goes
4) (sorry this is so long) he can't go to normal school, he would be next level bullied
Aww Annabeth plays with the dog in the books too? That’s so sweet I love that. And I totally understand Sally now!! I just didn’t understand her reasoning throughout the episode but at the end it all made sense. And I didn’t even remember Sally is working full time!!! That totally slipped my mind so I get why she can’t homeschool Percy. And she’s soooo smart for not wanting him anywhere near Gabe if she can help it. That detail from the books about why she’s with him is so crazy and sad for Sally but she’s so brave to put up with him just to protect Percy omg. Thank you so much for watching and commenting! 😊🤍
They did expliant the smell, it why they sat net to toilets on the bus
I’m loving these reactions and about the boarding school thing something Percy says in the pilot “Am I troubled kid , yeah you could say that” they don’t explain it but in the books that’s a reference to the fact that Yancy academy is a school for troubled kids and Percy explains to the reader that he ended up there because he’s been kicked out of every school he’s ever been to. I don’t know if that’s still canon in the show but I think that’s part of why he goes to boarding school. So excited to watch the finale with you! 💕🎀
I’m so happy you’re loving my reactions!! 🤩 And yeah I didn’t remember that Percy’s probably been in a BUNCH of different boarding schools just to stay safe over the years, which is so sad for both him and Sally. I LOVED episode 8 and can’t wait to upload that reaction so soon! Thanks so much for watching and commenting 😊🤍
Spoiler for season 5
It a plot point when he finally gets to go to same school for a second year, I doubt they'll change that
Sally is an amazing mum, but she's still human. I mean we all have fights with our parents occasionally, right? Doesn't mean we don't love them just as much or forgive each other if something is said in anger or frustration. Anyway, really enjoyed the reaction! Can't wait for episode 8!
YESSSS totally! 👏 I understand Sally was trying to protect Percy now with the school but it’s all just so sad the way it happened, especially with Percy not understanding why. But there literally was not much Sally could do to change things and she was seriously trying her best. I love her so much!!! I’m so happy you enjoyed my reaction and I can’t wait to start editing my reaction to episode 8 asap! Thank you so much for watching and commenting 😊🤍
I think my favorite bit of trivia about the actor playing Poseidon is that he’s Dame Maggie Smith’s son.
Wait….. WHAT?! Are you kidding me?!! That’s so freakin cool omg my two worlds colliding I love that! Thanks for letting me know 🤩
2:44- Yes, yes, and yes. Death from “Supernatural” is playing Percy’s cousin.
3:09- Because A- that’s book-accurate, and, B- that’s the closest they could get to truly myth accurate Procrustes. He had an iron bed on Mount Korydallos-a sacred path between Athens and Eleusis (another city in Greece; the more you know)-and when people lay down, he would stretch them to fit the bed perfectly, or chop off whatever didn’t fit if they were too tall…
6:31- Bear McCreary (dope name, BTW, if you ever read this, Mr. McCreary) has done the music for both Agents of Shield and this, and I think I saw that he’s coming back for the second season!
11:37- Those are all people going to the Underworld. If I remember right, movie 1 did this part much the same way.
12:37- I think that the Knitting Ladies were supposed to help throw us off to the fact that Percy was alive in the water. I may be wrong, but, that was how I took it.
14:08- You’ll meet another really great monster character in the next season. Can’t wait for you to see him because I know you’ll love him.
19:15- Athena is the goddess of wisdom and battle strategy, so it’s assumed that Annabeth would have already tried using her dagger which is made of the same material as Percy’s. If she couldn’t get through, he knows Riptide wouldn’t be able to either.
22:02- I think it’s similar to the shoes. Ares magic-ed it so that it would show up in their bag right as they went into the pit.
25:07- I think he eventually realized that, even if he can’t know everything at that moment, Sally will always be doing her best, and that is something that not a lot of people can say.
27:55- Yes! Kronos is the Dementor!! And he’s the big bad!!! Myth time: so Kronos is the father of the gods, and then he ate them all. Zeus had to cut them all out, and Kronos has been in Tartarus ever since. But the Thief (I know you know, Sarah, but in case somebody else doesn’t know) is working with Kronos, and so he’s trying to get the Bolt to Kronos so that Kronos can start a war and take over Olympus again, because the Thief is very strong in their belief that the gods are bad rulers…and parents.
30:43- Top two best acted scenes in this show without debate, IMO. (I don’t know if it’s flat out “the best” because the betrayal is just so well acted too, but still…)
32:45- Yep! Hephaestus! (Which, if anyone else watched Psych on and off like I did when I was young, it was great to see Lassie :). )
32:57- You can say many things about Sally Jackson, but you cannot say that she wouldn’t give the world to Percy if he wanted it. Her methods in this episode suck-I will give you that-but she honestly doesn’t know how to do any better. The show doesn’t mention this, but have you wondered why a Queen like Sally is living with (and, in the books and the OG movie, I believe married to) someone as terrible as Gabe? The books have an excellent explanation: Gabe smells so bad that he literally covers up Percy’s monster-attracting smell. So, not only does she have to put up with all the verbal abuse, but she also has to deal with all the abuse to her nose as well. And she does it ALL for Percy.
33:47- Thunder rolls because it’s Zeus’s warning that he’s already been down there for too long. Thunder always come after lightning, and lightning is one of Zeus’s things, so that is the subtle way of Zeus telling Poseidon: “get back up here NOW. You can’t allow yourself to get attached…”
35:21- I have been under the impression that this is the same beach as Ep. 1. Someone more knowledgeable can correct me if I’m wrong.
Fitting for tomorrow he was also in The Luck of The Irish☺️🍀.
That’s so crazy we got a PJO and SPN actor crossover!
Wow seriously?? That’s so cool that’s so close to real mythology!
YESSS WE LOVE BEAR MCCREARY!!!!!! His talent is iconic.
Gotcha, that’s smart that the knitting ladies were to throw us off track.
Ohhhhh I can’t wait to meet more monster characters!!!
Exactly, Sally was alwaysssss doing her best 100% and we love and respect her for that.
I DID NOT REALIZE Kronos literallyyyy ate the gods omg 🤯 That’s terrifying. Kronos is definitely worse than the gods in comparison.
The Sally and Poseidon scene had me almost in tears the acting was PHENOMENAL!!!
I’m a HUGE Psych fan and rewatch the series every single summer and recognized Lassie immediately and have NO IDEA why I didn’t talk about it lol I think I thought it was off topic but yessss I love psych and Lassie sooo much!!!
I literally wondered why and how Sally could end up with a dirtbag like Gabe since we saw him in the first episode so the fact that it was all for Percy is so tragic and amazing at the same time. We love Sally Jackson here.
I figured the thunder was Zeus warning him!!!!
I love your comments so much!! Thank you so much for watching and commenting 🤩🤍
Yes, is the beach from episode 1
Half-brother…remember he tells Percy he has dad’s eyes…
Just wanted to note that we have two Supernatural actors because not only is Timothy Omudson in Psych, he is Cain in Supernatural.
I am so happy to see that you really liked this episode as i really didn't as they changed a lot of stuff from the book but the fact that you liked the episode means the writers knew what they were doing.
That’s so interesting they changed a lot from the books, I didn’t know that. I LOVED this episode!! The writing and everything was incredible. Thanks so much for watching 😊🤍
As other people said
It is not that Sally wants to leave Percy, but she wants him to have the best experience out of what is happening. She cannot do home schooling because 1) She is the breadwinner of her home and has to work all day 2) She wants Percy to have a normal life, she wants him to have friends and live as a normal kid. She prefers to send him to a school that is prepared to manage his ADHD and dislexia to make this experience easier for him.
I do agree that maybe Percy had to hide and accept those moments and think that Sally was just doing the best she could (and she was), and this probably made them have the relationship they have now. Part of growing up is understanding some of the decisions our (good) parents made to raise us, and in my opinion this is what happened to Percy, he understood the sacrifice and effort that Sally had to make through the years for him to have the best life he could.
Oh I totally understand Sally now!! I just didn’t understand her reasoning throughout the episode but at the end it all made sense. And I didn’t even remember Sally is working full time!!! That totally slipped my mind so I get why she can’t homeschool Percy but didn’t get why he couldn’t go to a normal day time school. But ohhhhh I didn’t really realize the boarding schools were specifically good for Percy’s adhd and dyslexia and that normal schools couldn’t help him with that. That makes so much sense! I love that Percy knows Sally well enough to know she would only do those things if she thought it would help Percy and be good for him. His trust in her and understanding is so amazing because Sally deserves it. She really was doing everything she could for him. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!! 😊🤍
20:36 that would be Tartarus, it’s the deepest part if the underworld and its where the titans were imprisoned along with other ppl/creatures who were like the worst of the worst
28:08 Kronos was killed with his own scythe after he ate his children, and is in Tartarus
I think that Sally is a human going through a really tough time as a single mother. Regardless of Percy being a demigod, that's a REALLY hard position to be in, and she deserves a lot of grace because parenting is tough, and isn't handled perfectly all the time because no one is perfect. Like yeah Percy is having a tough time, but he's being a bit of a brat, which is within his right, he's learning to manage his emotions, but Sally is really struggling too.
Totally I LOVED that this episode showed Sally’s human side showing how hard it is being such an amazing mother on the outside while struggling so much on the inside. I have so much empathy and love for Sally Jackson 🤍 Thanks so much for watching!! 😊
About the Boarding school thing, In the books, they have a conversation about it in the books, and Sally pretty much says that she had to send him a way for his own protection that she thought he’d be safer that way, and says that she was selfish for wanting to keep him near her. You’ll be Happy to hear though that after the first book Percy stays with Sally
If anyone want to know this conversation starts in chapter 3 of the Lightning Thief and maybe continues into chapter 4
Omg I’m sooo glad they have a conversation about it in the books!!!! The saddest part is the fact that Percy couldn’t know and understand what Sally was doing and going through so I’m so glad they could talk about it now. And I’m SO happy Percy stays with Sally after book 1! Does he go to normal school after book 1? It seemed like it in the finale. Thank you so much for watching and letting me know 😊🤍
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns Hi again, I read all the books just to be clear, and yes Percy returns to normal school, but he won’t stay there for much longer.
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns he kind of switches between private and public schools, but he doesn’t end up at anymore boarding schools😁
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns also when this conversation takes place is when they’re at the Beach but, a difference in the book is that Sally doesn’t actually tell Percy about him being a demigod there, they still get chased to camp by the Minotaur and everything but Percy doesn’t know anything about him being a demigod until Chiron and Annabeth tell him. So he doesn’t understand when the confer happens what she’s protecting him from but I feel like it definitely helped him understand her more after he found out about everything.😁😁 ( I think she meant to tell him about the whole demigod thing she just didn’t get the chance in the book)
The reason Percy's so tall at the end is because his actor had a growth spurt during filming lol
One of the things from the books I was most disappointed they changed was the "Gates to the Underworld" being like airport gates. There's three lines, one for the really bad people going to the Fields of Punishment, and one for the really heroic ones going to Elysium. But the line for the middle of the road people is the fastest moving, so it's called the "EZ Death Line."
I literally literally can’t wait to see ur reaction to the finale !! ur like my favorite pjotv reactor and i look forward to every single one of ur videos and i love how you’ve been loving this show cause it’s really special to me and to get to see people like you enjoying it for the first time and appreciate it means a lot! Anyway this episode is amazing like top three of the season for me cause it’s just have so many great moments, sally and poseidon’s flashbacks were truly EVERYTHING and i just think their relationship is so sad like the fact that no matter how much poseidon wants to be a part of her life or percy’s life, he just can’t do anything about it (btw the thunder you hear when sally asked him if he wanted to talk to percy was basically zeus saying “NO”) and the fact that he still came the second sally needed him is so 🥲 and don’t get me wrong he’s still pretty bad but the show really made me see him differently than in the books. Also with sally and the boarding school thing is so sad too, i think she was just trying her best to protect him cause she obviously wants percy to be with her more than anything but no matter how much she wants it she just knows she can’t cause it is really dangerous and she’s just trying her best to protect him like she said “sometimes i have to make choices that you may not understand” and is really sad for percy cause at that moment he really didn’t understand and thought his mom just didn’t want him around :( anyway i could talk forever but this comment is long enough 😭 so impatient for the next video! hope you like it 🫶🏻
OH MY GOSH That means soooo much to me you have no idea, thank you!!!!!! 🤩🤍 SO true about Poseidon wanting to be a part of Sally and Percy’s life but he just can’t and that’s so tragic. They would make an amazing family. The fact that he came in person when he knew Sally really needed him was so good in my eyes, I reallyyy loved their scene together!! And I understand Sally was trying to protect Percy now with the school but it’s all just so sad the way it happened, especially with Percy not understanding why. But I love Sally so much. I LOVEDDDDD episode 8 and can’t wait to start editing my reaction video to it asap!!!! Thank you so much for watching and commenting 🥰
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns omg so glad you loved it, can’t wait to see the reaction to it!! i just know i’m gonna love it cause one thing i love about you that other ppl don’t have is how you notice these little hidden details about the show and the characters too and comment on them and it is exactly what i think and ughhh i love it so much! and i totally get the sally thing, when i watched it for the first time i was CRYING, when percy said “why are you trying so hard to get rid of me” i was about to end it all 😭 and ugh don’t get me started on poseidon cause the show actually made me feel guilty for liking him in the scenes he’s in cause i know he’s technically not a good person (well he’s not a person but you know) but the way they portray him in the show… i couldn’t help it; THAT ONE SCENE IN EP 8 WITH HIM BYE
Ela é minha favorita tambem, mal podia esperar para reação dos ultimos epsodios
Remember to comment ALL your thoughts on this amazing episode 7!! 🤩 The highlights of the episode for me was the “Hold Fast, Mom” quote, the emotional Sally and Poseidon conversation, and the POWERFUL cliffhanger before the Percy and Ares fight!! 🔥 I have already filmed my reaction to Percy Jackson episode 8 so that video will be out so soon too!! This is my longest and most in depth reaction video yet, I just had so many emotions and so much to say and it was sooo fun so thank you so much for watching!! 🥰
"Hold fast, Mom" 😭
I think there was a line you missed -- which is totally natural and understandable, by the way! Unlike us, you have to talk and look at the camera while watching; and also you can't just rewind if you didn't catch something like the rest of us can.
But anyway: in the car, Sally said _"Dr. Higgins said this is the best school. The best Program in the State for kids with learning differences. We were very lucky to get in."_ I'm assuming that Dr. Higgins is a Psychiatrist they know, probably the one who at the time was currently helping Percy.
So I don't think that she was pushing Percy away. She also wasn't sending him to just any boarding school. She was sending him to the best school she could possibly have found to get him the best learning experience possible.
And Homeschooling would never have been acceptable to her, because that would mean a severely limited exposure to the wider, human world; which in turn would mean that Percy wouldn't learn who he is before getting to Camp and "[Poseidon's] family trying to tell him who they want him to be".
Percy, of course, was like 7 or so and would never have been able to understand all that.
Finally, I think that Hermes' line is important here: _"Have you ever been close to the people you love and you know that you have no choice but to keep hurting each other?"_ Note the "each other" there. Hermes, the God who can see all of Time and Space, already knew that Sally Jackson had no choice but to hurt Percy by sending him to the Boarding School; just as Percy had no choice but to hurt Sally due to feeling betrayed and saying hurtful things born from that feeling of betrayal.
I totally understand Sally now!! I just didn’t understand her reasoning throughout the episode but at the end it all made sense. That line definitely didn’t stick with me much at the time. I didn’t really realize the boarding school was specifically good for Percy’s adhd and dyslexia and that normal schools couldn’t help him with that. That makes so much sense! It’s just so sad that Percy couldn’t understand the reasons for everything Sally was doing because she really was doing everything she could to protect him. Thank you so much for watching and commenting! 😊🤍
julian richings i saw a panel of his online.. what a acting talent indeed. its nice to see people play iconic roles that mirror another role they played... and that opening scene.. and posiedon showing up AHHHHHHmy emotions
The underworld is not hell, this concept was created with hollywood movies, but in Mythology, the underworld is both hell and heaven, heaven = Isles of Elysium, Hell = Tartarus and Camps of punishment, and the Camps of Asphodel is the place were all people who accomplished nothing in life waist their afterlife, also in mythology and in the PJ books, the Underworld is described with black and green, no fire or lava or magma at all. About the dead people, they keep their body, even after death.
And the dog is Cerberus the guardian of the underworld. And the 3 headed creature in the movies is the Hydra, that didn't appears in the first season or book.
The pit is Tartarus the place where all monster go after "dying".
Kronos is lord of the titans, God of time and father of Zeus.
Oh WOW I totally thought the Underworld was just hell. That’s all such cool mythology. Thanks so much for watching and letting me know!! 😊
@@pinguimalfaro5349 ohhhh so they are two different creatures. I was thinking I felt like I would remember a 3 headed dog in the movie 😂
From what I can remember from the books the main reason why Sally was so insistent on Percy going to school is because it was harder for monsters to track him when he wasn’t home. She was trying to protect him and also probably wanted to keep him away from Gabe who was more clearly abusive in the books.
I totally get Sally trying to protect Percy now by having him go to boarding school but didn’t realize the monsters could even track him easier if he was at home. That’s interesting! And omg Sally is sooo smart for not having Percy anywhere near Gabe if she could. I love that and can’t believe how many reasons there were for boarding school. It’s so sad that Percy couldn’t understand them. Thank you so much for watching and letting me know! 😊🤍
The underworld in the show is very true to the underworld in Greek mythology, you're hearing underworld and you're thinking Christian Hell, but the two don't correlate, the underworld is where ALL the dead go to, both good and evil and everyone in between. the same goes to Hades, you hear king of the underworld and think the devil (made worse by Hollywood depictions that do the same correlation) but that couldn't be farther then the truth. In Greek mythology Hades is actually one of the better gods, In that this show is actually one of the best depictions of him I ever saw, he's not evil, his job is to watch over and take care of the souls of the dead.
Oh WOW really?? That’s all so cool, I love learning about the different mythologies!! That’s especially interesting about Hades being one of the good gods. Thanks so much for watching and explaining that! 😊
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns my pleasure!
I want the "what's the plan, Phil" clip every time something happens, no matter how repititive i hope consider doing that
Hahaha I’m so happy you liked that 😂
I love this show so much I can’t wait to see your reaction to episode 8. My favorite part where is Sally and Poseidon talk about Percy. For how Percy and Sally relationship we might get more answers in season two and more hopefully but I think as Percy saw more and more things that no one else saw the only person he could confide in was Sally.
If you have thought about reading the books I would suggest that you do they are all so good. I love them all.
I also what to say thank you for sharing your experience I love watching your experience and excitement about it
Yayyy I’m so glad you’re enjoying my reactions!! The Sally and Poseidon scene was INCREDIBLE. And I love your theory that Percy and Sally grew closer over the years especially because she was the only person he could confide in, that’s so true! I’m so excited to read the first book now and vlog that journey!! 🤩 I’m gonna read each book after reacting to each season. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!! 🤍
@@shaunessyfeeneyOMG that means so much to me you have no idea!!! I love Percy Jackson so much and love watching it with you. Thank you so much for being here and watching!! 🥰
Sally had to send percy away because the monsters were sniffing him out, he wasn't safe with her, where he was. She was trying to protect him.
Oh I totally understand that now!! I just didn’t understand her reasoning throughout the episode but at the end it all made sense. Thanks so much for watching 😊🤍
In the books, Crusty actually gets Annabeth and Grover into the waterbeds and Percy tricks him into getting into one as well, then lobs off his head. LET PERCY BE UNHINGED DISNEY (jk I do love the show still lol)
OMG WHAT??? 😅 Gosh the books are definitely more risky than the show. I can’t wait to start reading the first book now and vlog that now that I’ve filmed my reaction to episode 8!!
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns OMG YES YES YES
Yes, that is the death of Supernatural, and Procrustes is a son of Poseidon, then a half brother of Percy
That’s so cool that’s the same actor!! Lol half brother makes a lot more sense 😂 Thanks so much for watching! 🤍
12:40 In the books, the fates cutting the string was a foreshadow of a certain character's fate in the great prophecy (which they will probably talk about next season, but the great prophecy is what all 5 books lead up to). But also in the book, Percy is the one that sees the fates cut the string closer to the beginning when he is on his way home from Yancy Academy. So since the tv show changed the timing and which character saw the string being cut, does it refer to something else now or is it still referring to the same thing? I'm not sure. My mind ponders. Prophecies are mysterious things.
OHHHH that’s so interesting!! How they changed so much with the fates and who saw it and when and how that will affect the show. I can’t wait to find out! Thanks so much for watching and letting me know 😊
Some info on Procrusty. In the myths he would lead travelers into either a bed that is too long (where he would stretch them into their limbs popped off) or too short (where he would cut off their legs and/or head off). In the book both Annabeth and Grover were trapped by it, so Percy had to saved them by trapping Procrusty in those same traps and cutting off his head.
In regards to the cousins comment. They are actually half brothers, but this is a little more complicated. In the books it is stated that gods don't have DNA, so campers don't see each other as blood family unless they are from the same cabin.
Also just to make it clear, In greek mythology the underworld is not hell. It would be more correct to just say the underworld is the afterlife, and that hell purgatory and heaven are different sections there.
The fates (the knitting ladies) are the ones cutting the string. I'll just say that the show might want you to think that Percy going gold was him dying, but book readers know better.
In regards to Hades palace, it was a while since I read the book, but I think it was described as an upside down mount Olympus.
About the master bolt in the book Percy notes that the closer he gets to the palace the heavier the backpack becomes, implying that a spell or something was placed so that the bolt would only appear in the underworld.
Kronos is also the father of Zues Poseidon and Hades, he heard that one of his kids would one day overthrow him so he ate them when they were born. Zues escaped due to his mother made Kronos puck up his siblings and they defeated Kronos in the great titan war.
Woahhh this is all such great information!! Knowing the underworld is more of an afterlife makes a lot more sense. I can’t wait to find out what the fates were hinting at omg!! I love learning about all these details! Thank you so much for watching and letting me know 🤩🤍
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns glad to help. The only other thing I'll say is that what the fates were hinting at will take a while to happen so you are going to have to be patient.
You will meet the cutest and sweetest monster next season, you will love him!
OMG really??? I love that!! 🤩 I can’t wait for season 2. Thank you so much for watching 🤍
Fluffy was actually inspired by Cerberus, the 3 headed dog of the underworld. Cerberus guards the gates to the underworld.
The "three headed creauture"(actuallly had more than that) from the movie was a dragon, but the one here is a cerberus which is a three headed dog
@@OnTheMoonJunk Ohhhh gotcha! Thank you so much for watching and letting me know!! 😊
34:05 Percy's actor grew a lot over the course of filming. He went from 5'1" to 5'7." So you can kinda tell the order of filming by his growth. He outgrew a few of the other actors including Clarisse so it's good that their fight was filmed early on.
Some fun things about the casting, Toby Stephen’s who plays Poseidon is Maggie Smith’s son! And the actor for Hephaestus is Timothy Omundson who you might recognize as Cain in Supernatural!
Wait a second, you’ve never heard of Cerberus? The og three-headed dog
I would recommend watching the 4 minute video on the Theogony by @OverlySarcasticProductions , it explains the story of the gods and Kronos in a very digestible form (yes that is also a Kronos joke). Their Greek mythology videos are also very helpful for any other confusion you may have on the myths that influence the show. They’re funny and easy to understand, and also very informative. Hope this is helpful! 💜
That is SO helpful, I’ll definitely look that up!! I have such a hard time following multiple storylines and characters and plots for some reason. Thank you so much for watching and for the recommendation! 😊🤍
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns You’re welcome! I think knowing the stories gives you an edge on understanding things too, I hope next season they explain more of the myths behind the plot, because I think the lack of mythological explanation is one of the show’s few flaws.
In Greek mythology, Cerberus often referred to as the hound of Hades, is a multi-headed dog that guards the gates of the Underworld to prevent the dead from Leaving.
--------------------
In Greek mythology, The Underworld is both Heaven and Hell. Generally speaking, the Greek Underworld can be thought of as being made up of three different regions;
Tartarus - A Prison for Those who Pissed of the Gods also the Prison where the Titans where looked Away.}
The Asphodel Meadows - The Asphodel Meadows was the region of the Underworld where the majority of the deceased would end up.
The Elysium Field - Elysium was the home of the heroic, and the region of the Underworld most closely associated with paradise. Inhabitants of Elysium would spend an eternity of pleasure free from work and strife.
Woah gotcha this is all such great information!! Knowing the underworld is more of an afterlife for everyone makes a lot more sense. I love learning about all these details! Thank you so much for watching and letting me know 🤩🤍
About the thread that means death. We dont get an answer right away. Its a few books away. 😅
OMG SERIOUSLY?!?! I can’t wait to find out how that plot comes back seasons later!!
Just to go over a bit of Greek mythology, the Titans ruled the world before the Olympians did. The ruler of the Titans was Kronos, who was infamous for eating his own children, including Zeus, Poseidon and Hades. Zeus was the only one to escape this fate. He eventually managed to trick Kronos into puking up Poseidon and Hades. After that, they formed an army and led a rebellion against the Titans, which they won. Kronos was chopped into a million pieces and thrown into the depths of Tartarus, the deepest, darkest part of the Underworld. He's been imprisoned in Tartarus ever since. Zeus's master bolt is the only weapon powerful enough to open the gates and allow Kronos to escape
The three headed dog is Cerberus, who guards the gates to the Underworld itself.
Hades' helm of darkness is a real item in Greek Mythology. It was made by the elder Cyclopes after he and his brothers freed them. The cyclopes also forged Zeus' master bolt and Poseidon's trident. Annabeth's cap I believe was invented for the book series
In Greek morphology Kronos is basically the „father of some gods like the big ones Zeus, Poseidon etc. and he swallowed and ate his children because he was afraid the will take him down and then they took him down 🙌🏻
I don’t think her reaction was that bad to him locking the door and talking back to her, and refusing to obey her. Is it fun to have to raise your voice sometimes and be stern with your kids? No. But she’s the adult and she has to teach Percy how to handle tough situations. One way or another he’s going to go to school, like she said it’s not a negotiation. So it’s his choice whether he says goodbye angry or not. We all have choices to make in the face of things we don’t want to do but nevertheless we must do them. I think she gets upset because she’s sad to leave him too and his behavior is making it so they can’t have a loving parting.
I think in the previous episode Percy thought this memory was about how his mom had no choice but to hurt him by leaving him at school and then in this episode he’s realizing he hurt her too by his misunderstanding of her. So in some way they both hurt each other here.
4:45 yes, horns 👍
I've seen that some people explain Sally's resoning pretty well. But thers anorther reason that it wasn't explains in the books, not straight forwad, but in books Gabe was way much worse. He was @busing Sally and Percy (Percy reveal it in line "he puch my lights out" or something like that. She propably want to proteck her son from Gabe too, and obviously from all the half-blood things too. Also she's absolutly queen, best mom ever. Even if sometimes she needs to yell at Percy.
aaand, will you react to ep 8?
I think you meant the hydra as the three headed monster.
Yeahhh I think the movie had a different three headed creature 😂 I was too excited in the moment to see a three headed dog lol
Its canon to greek mythos that Ceberus eats satyrs.... alot of monsters in greek myth eat satyrs. 😅
OH NOOOO seriously?? 😅 That’s cool that the show stuck to mythology with having the dog go after Grover then but omg my heart stopped lol. Thanks so much for watching and letting me know! 🥰
I have had NO TIME to watch these so now I'm binging!! I was waiting to watch these hehe
2:24 yeahhh hes got a few murderous relatives (as you may have noticed)
3:02 well in the books it was the Hollywood side haha, they just get the map from the mattresses store. Plus a lot more peril from Crusty
10:09 scene made me cry too, i have a lot of family members with ASD including my little sister and i related to that scene so much. watching my mom make the toughest calls because she wanted what was best for her kid, even though it hurt and caused fights... close to home
11:10 ha! I think hed make Annabeth watch the MCU lol
11:59 allergic to being inconspicuous 😅
13:26 wellll Fluffy is based off of greek mythology Cerberus, but no it cant be solved so easily hehe. Though the bouncy ball worked wonders... in the books, she really bonded with the doggy and cried when she had to leave it :*(
15:29 hehehehehe i love this
16:29 yeah this scene also is really emotional for me, i remember watching my mom fight so hard to get my autistic little sister into a school that would be good for her. Shes gotten that response of "support we cant offer" more than once
20:54 i was screaming this too hehe!!
27:53 king of titans, lord of time... yeah the big big bad
Death from Supernatural is indeed playing Percy's MUCH older brother (in Greek mythology the majority of Poseidon's kids tend to be monstars or REALLY bad people, heroes are a small minority...)
Haha “MUCH older brother” 😂 That’s so crazy that’s the same actor! And that’s so interesting most turn out to be bad. Thank you so much for watching and commenting! 😊
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns my pleasure! I really enjoy your reactions to this show!
Crusty (I think) isn't Percy cousin's, he is his half brother.
HAHA I have no idea why I said cousin 😂
I think that Annabeth's regret is Thalia's death, but I'm not sure.
I thought it was not giving her Dad a second chance, hence why she is going off to meet him at the end.
OHHHH that’s my favorite theory I’ve heard so far!! That makes so much sense! I forgot about that. Thanks so much for watching 😊
Percy try not to sacrifice yourself every episode challenge: *failed immediately*
LITERALLY 😂 That’s what I love about Percy and all three of the trio is they will sacrifice themselves for each other within a second. Their friendships are so amazing!
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesigns Their friendship is so so precious to me I love them so much
DXACTLY WHY DOES SALLY REFUSE FOR REGULAR OR HOMESCHOOLING
I KNOWWWW IT MAKES ME SO SAD FOR LITTLE PERCY!!!!!! 😭 Someone made the point that she worked a full time job so couldn’t homeschool and that normal schools couldn’t help him with his dyslexia, so I kinda understand why boarding school was the last resort, but it’s still soooo sad! 💔
@@WeCouldBeHeroesDesignsI can't remember exactly why (I JUST returned the lightning thief to the library, my memory is awful), but there was something about it being for his protection? I know this next bit is probably a spoiler, but by the time this video has come out, you've probably already watched the last episode. I don't think this is said in the books, but I've always thought she sent him to boarding school to keep him safe from Gabe, and he is protected for a very long time just by living with him over the summer. Gabe is abusive, and while she married him to protect Percy, she still has to protect Percy from Gabe himself. (Anybody's who's read the books, please correct me if I'm wrong, it's been a while since I've read the entire series and my attention span is awful so I miss a lot of things when I read.)
@kae9793 That was always my understanding and interpretation. Gabe is so disgusting that his smell masks Percy all school year. Gabe is abusive and so Sally sends him away to protect him but every year something happens to Percy and he gets kicked out of the school and has to find a new one.
Homeschooling requires a parent to be home. Sally is the only person with a salary in the household, so she can't just stay home and teach him.
i love watching people react to pjo i was reading the first book while the show was coming out. the dog is Cerberus and he is in the books. Hades is nicer in the show. Poseidon is a better father in the show. Kronos is the father of Zeus, Poseidon, Hades and some other gods, Kronos is the titan god of time. He got a prophecy that one of his children will betray him so he literally ate his children a few eons ago but Hera hid Zeus so he wasn't eaten. then Zeus grew up and tricked him into puking them out, since they were gods they grew up and survived in Kronos stomach. Zeus then cut him to pices and dropped him into Tartarus the deepest pits of hell, also all monsters after killed go there for a while.
Wondering if you found out who the mother of Poseidon’s real life actor is 🤫
As coisas com o Percy e a Sally é bem como o Hermes disse, eles acabaram machucando um ao outro por causa das cisrcunstacias, não era o que nenhum dos dois queriam, mas não tinha outra opção alem do acampamento
Acho que ela ia achar Inception bem legal, ou os dois poderiam só assistir Encanto, otimo filme sobre familia para os dois
