B is for Betrayal is the second episode of season 2, and the twenty-eighth episode overall of the TV series.
Plot[]
The Knights of Vengeance attacked Meridian and began targeting those, who betrayed their former master's loyalty. Back on Earth, the Guardians were called to another realm, Kandrakar, and learnt of their new status as the Guardians of the Infinite Dimensions, after the Veil's lifting. The girls noticed a sudden change in Cornelia's powers. Cornelia was still angry with Caleb for remaining on Meridian after Phobos' defeat.
In the B-story, Cornelia had a crush on Taranee's brother, Peter Cook. He was uninterested in his little sister's friend until the end of the episode, when Cornelia, though not in Guardian form, retained her Guardian figure. The other girls told Peter she's Cornelia's older sister, "Lilian". Also, Will gave Cornelia a kitten, but Cornelia gave him to the actual Lilian, who named the cat Napoleon.
Behind the scenes[]
- Fan discussion of the original broadcasts of this episode at Anime Superhero (formerly Toon Zone). Some episode threads also feature posts by members of the crew that worked on the show, including Andrew Nicholls (Andrewjn) and Justine Cheynet (witchinsider).
Trivia[]
- Every second-season episode has a clear focus on one of the five main characters. This episode is one of 4 in the season to focus on Cornelia Hale.
- This episode marks the first appearances of Peter Cook and Napoleon as well as the world of Kandrakar and its inhabitants Althor, Halinor, Tibor, the Oracle, and Luba, and also the Aurameres and the Tooth of the Tonga.
- This episode also marks the only actual appearance of the Veil in the series. While present throughout the series up to this point, it is apparently only visible on Kandrakar so it is not seen in previous episodes, and in this episode it was lifted away.
- Cornelia gained the power to make herself as tall as she appears in her Guardian form.
- Beginning with this episode, the W.I.T.C.H. girls say their elements in a different way during their transformation, as opposed to in season 1 where they said their elements the same way every time they transformed.
- From this episode on, W.I.T.C.H. became known as the Guardians of the Infinite Dimensions.
- It is interesting how Irma asked sarcastically if becoming the Guardians of the Infinite Dimensions comes with a raise, not knowing that the Guardians would get upgrades to their powers in the next episode.
