I watched "Birth" knowing we'd get all the answers... I ended up disappointed, I didn't even want Dark Swan to be secretly good. Then "The Bear King" aired, I had no expectations, I thought "it's a boring filler" and then... IT WAS AWESOME. Definitely better than the movie Brave. We actually got a war scene with people fighting, Arthur had an helm for surprise effect but I knew he was the one who killed Fergus. Oh and Merida's boyfriends actually showed some Honor. I also didn't see that coming, the witch's request was a "test", okay... weird, but at least Fergus didn't use magic to convince his soldiers, I mean, I'm glad so Merida doesn't have a bad memory of her father. Also, great Ruby and Mulan! That explanation for Ruby's absence worked pretty well, it's been a really great set up with her and Mulan for the future (I guess?).
