Episode 4a: Super Kids
The gang ends up going to a seminar because Carver had to go because his parents wanted him to go because reasons. (because alot) I like how they agreed to join him just because free donuts. The speaker is a 12-year-old boy who wrote a book and his advice is to have a goal and work until you get it. He asks our gang what they planned for the weekend and doesn't like their plans. This makes them want to go something of "worth" for the weekend. They try some random things, but eventually they decide to try out different goals separately.
Lor's goal is to set the record for the most consecutive baskets in basketball. Tish is trying to make a whole symphony. (as on does) Carver is trying to the ultimate athletic shoes. Tino being Tino is more angsty on an idea. His mother , comes in and tells him to just maybe he should just keep the goal of hanging out with his friends and relaxing for the weekends. (We wouldn't have a plot for this episode then, Tino's Mom)
They go see the 12-year-old Tripp Nickerson again for his book signing. They kind of figure he might be a little unhappy and unhinged. (I'm scared, help me) Tino asks if he would like to hang out with them and he agrees. They sit together and watch the sunset.
One of the things about this show is that plots are simple sometimes, and this one is that, it's a nice simple plot. The idea that yeah it's good to have good goals, but also just to appreciate time and friends. I like how Tino asks Tripp to join him and his friends and we just get a nice simple ending. It's a well done episode and does a good job. 8/10
Episode 4b: Crevasse of Dreams
Tish tries to question the theme of the pizza shop having cavemen with dinosaurs but the owner thing uses part of his power to bring up they didn't have pizza either, causing Tish to back down. Well done.
Tino shows up and tells his friends he found a great place to hang out and that no one else knows where it is. The next day, he shows the the way, but apparently it wasn't. The friends crack jokes about Tino's spot, it makes him a little crazy. Then he mentions a place he found when they were eight he's calling the Crevasse. Also he mentions crevasse alot.
Tino gets them to go, but they want to prove him wrong. The next day, it's time to go. Now it's time to find the crevasse. (where is it?) Tish really doesn't care if Tino is wrong or right she just wants to go back home. Lor and Carver want to prove Tino wrong and Tino wants to find the spot. Eventually, the rest of them decide to leave Tino because they are tired.
Tish decides they made a mistake as Carver could admit he was wrong about the sandwiches that Tino did say pack them. They go back to apologize and Tino decides to forgive them, even though he did find the crevasse, but decides not to tell them. (Does look comfy)
It's a nice episode, do feel Tino's friends do get a little harsh there, but I liked how the ending went, at least we got the crevasse. And it's a fun word and real word meaning : a deep open crack, especially one in a glacier. I don't the episode is that strong, does have some humorous moments though. 7/10.
That's it for now, tune in next time when we review the crevasse, on our travel blog, which doesn't exist.
