"Dorothy, you've come home."

Okay. Now it's getting interesting.

[DigificWriter]

I said after the airing of "Mistress - New - Mistress" that it seemed pretty clear that both Dorothy and her mom had come from Oz when Karen first showed up at the Gale farmhouse, and this episode confirms that statement, so "yay, me".

I kept waiting for them to show us Eamonn wearing a lion mask since the Festival of the Beast was the perfect opportunity for them to do so, and was kind of disappointed when it didn't happen. We do know that he's our Cowardly Lion analogue, though, so it's got to happen sometime.

I don't know about anyone else, but I really like Princess Langwidere/Lady Ev. She's snarky, shrewd, and innocent all at the same time, and could potentially be a good ally for Dorothy since we kind of know that their paths are going to have to cross at some point since Dorothy needs to meet Jack and Lady Ev is his owner/keeper right now and doesn't seem likely to let him leave her, especially not after that kiss, which caught me completely off guard when it happened.

West has been my favorite of the Witches of Oz since her first appearance in The Beast Forever, and she continues to get more and more fascinating every week. I especially like that she's not on good terms with Glinda. It did surprise me that she didn't seem to be able to discover the truth about Dorothy's escape from Tip by reading her mind, which has me wondering why.

"Everybody Lies" continued to build the momentum of this show, and I'm eagerly anticipating next week's episode, even though it'll mean that we only have four more episodes to go afterwards.

Spoiler:

Mombi must have cast a spell,in case the guards came for both of them.

I love West,but I feel bad for her. She feels looking like this -up in front of Glinda when she's really a HBIC in her own setting. I love her relationship with Tip and I like Tip working for her. I was afraid for her,but she's just a servant girl.

I have my theories about Dorothy.

Spoiler:

He's her father and he was worried about her safety,so he gave her to Karen and sent her away.

I like Lady Ev, too. Jack actually let her kiss him and didn't get upset. Here I thought his heart belonged to Tip.

I'm worried about Lucas and hope that Aamon doesn't kill him. He doesn't remember and those people could be lying.

I'm worried about the little girl, too. Her knowing magic means she has significance on the show. Her being with Toto means something as well.

[scififan2009]

I wasn't expecting him to know her name.

This must mean her adoptive parents didn't name her. Karen Chapman must have.

[fly me to the moon]

I'm glad to know little more about Lady Ev since they destroy her kingdom and got her mother killed.. Plus I really want them to take her mask off since it seems that once she visit, everyone have to wear..

I'm glad that Jack stands up to her, but surprise about the kiss..

Thank god that Tip got her out since I tho that she/he will turn the back on her..

I felt bad for West since she really have trust issues w/ her sis..

Everyone in Emerald City was wearing masks because of the Festival of the Beast, a "celebration" of the Wizard's defeat of The Beast Forever. It had nothing to do with Langwidere/Lady Ev, whom we actually have seen without a mask.

[girl under the floor]

I felt bad for West, but I felt even worse for Dorothy who was being tortured by her. First time where I (at least for the time being) had a clear disliking of West.

I so didn't want Jack and Lady Ev to kiss Cause I shipped him with Tip already

Dorothy was great.
And I loved that Lucas wanted to take responsibility for what he did. 'I liked how we got a glimpse into his past like that, when the other guard told him what he had done. But I do still wonder why Lucas would've done that.

And this episode I actually liked Eamonn

"Dorothy you've come home!"
Can't wait for next week!

I felt bad for Dorothy.

Shouldn't her lawyer have been present?
