J is for Jewel is the tenth episode of season 2, and the thirty-sixth episode overall of the TV series.
Plot[]
The Guardians were divided, each of them on family vacations, with Hay Lin the only one left at Heatherfield. The Knights of Vengeance attacked Phobos's prison and managed to free their prince, and it was up to the air Guardian to gather the girls.
Meanwhile, Trill revealed herself to have been Nerissa all along, and trapped Queen Elyon inside a jewel from her mother's crown, stealing her powers.
In the B-story, Hay Lin met a new guy named Eric Lyndon.
Comics connections[]
- Hay Lin's first encounter with Eric in this episode mirrors her first encounter with him in comic issue 18.
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).
- The writing team for the second season was given "marching orders" to incorporate more material from the comics, and bring the two mediums closer together. This episode was considered to be a turning point during the season, before which a lot of work had been done to set up the new direction of the series.[1]
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 Hay Lin.
- This episode marks the first appearance of Eric Lyndon.
- Yan Lin showed that she can absorb life force from another person, which she did from Hay Lin in order to teletransport. However, this was quite draining for Hay Lin despite her being a current Guardian and thus connected to the Aurameres, and Yan Lin even remarked that she did not take enough to sustain teletransporting three times in quick succession.
