Good episode.

The nymphs looked a little strange and I wish they lingered on the death of Gothel’s family a little more (I realize they have limited time). The acting in the flashbacks was a little cringe, and the costume design wasn’t that great. Those are all technical flaws and nitpicks though. I had no problems at all with the script, which moved at a smooth pace.

I don’t know if anyone else mentioned this, but Gothel’s plant magic looked amazing when she was annihilating the humans. That was a fantastic scene and one of my favorites in season seven thus far.

The present-day scenes were almost entirely buildup, but they were still entertaining.

Maybe not the best villain centric, but definitely not the worst. This episode did a good job with making Gothel sympathetic but not having that take away from her evil-ness.

Three episodes left!

8/10.
