This show is incredible and has a very special way of getting better with each episode. This episode goes above and beyond though. This season is choke full of really powerful and emotional episodes with great lines. But in this episode (Spoilers!) we get to see some pretty extreme character development, especially in the relationship between Q and Eliot. Watching them complete this level of the quest and building a life together, separate from all outside influences and and distractions was beautiful. You know that going forward, this will change a lot of things because now their loyalties above all else, lie with each other. The conversations between Alice and Julia was wonderful to watch. And it was so amazing to find out that Persephone bestowed Goddess level magic to Julia, who is arguably the greatest all around character on the show. Her story has been massive and I can't wait to see what she does with this magic she's been nurturing. Now Margo may not be a warrior like Kady but she is hands down the most savage and strongest character on the show. Seeing her dealing with Fillory on her own, while having to contend with the machinations of the Fairy Queen, Prince Ess, a arranged marriage, an assassination and trying to defy death and time to save Q and Eliot. She certainly had a lot going on this episode and she dealt with it all in true Margo fashion. With strength and extremely savage lines that make you have so much respect for her. Even when Margo is vulnerable she still has so much strength. She is definitely the strongest and most outspoken female character I've ever seen on TV or in a film. This episode was truly special and is a big reason I recommend this show to everybody.
