The episode opens with Mars finishing Earth's upgrades. According to him he made Earth stronger, faster, and made her reaction time quicker but he says he can't do too much more without risking damaging the rest of Earth's software.

Earth actually seems a little concern and saddened by that news but she brushes it off and forces a smile.

She does the whole classic sibling "I'm not touching you" thing for a bit with Mars before going to test out her abilities.

Cut to Earth beating the absolute tar out of a giant Roxas plushie (I kind of wish Roxas showed up and saw that. Like he walks in sees Earth destroying one of his plushies and then leaves cause he thinks he did something to make her mad and doesn't want to end up like that plushie) during Earth's training session, Chico shows up and asks Earth what's she's doing and if she's doing okay after the whole situation with Harvest?

Earth finally let's it out and tells Chico (and us the audience) that no. She isn't doing okay and she feels like she has the weight of the world on her shoulders.

She talks about how she was supposed to be a daycare attendant, not some vigilant hunting down psychopaths. She should be helping kids, teaching them new things, playing with them, taking care of them and instead she's worrying about the next time Day, Night or Harvest will so up.

She says she's lucky to be alive cause Harvest could have killed her. The only reason she's not dead is cause Harvest let her live. (She has a point, if Harvest was just 2% more like og BloodMoon, Earth would be dead) and she says that it's not just Harvest, Day and Night could come in here at anytime and kill them all and there would be nothing either of them could do.

Earth admits she knows she is not as smart as Day or Night and now she's not even as strong as Harvest. She wants to keep her friends safe but she can't do this alone and it seems like none of them want to/care to learn how to defend themselves cause they think "Oh, Earth will do it"

What if she dies?! Then what?!

Chico says he never knew Earth was carrying such a weight on her shoulders and he apologizes to her for being a part of the problem.

She forgives him but she also admits she is still mad at Andromeda for not letting her deal with Night. She says she understands that Andi was both conflicted cause of her feelings for Night and also cause of the A.R.K. code in her but she says she wishes Andi had just done as she asked and let her deal with Night cause if she had, they would have figured out what A.R.K. is, Day might be captured, and Harvest wouldn't exist and instead they now have to deal with this.

Earth says she just wants everyone to be safe but it's hard to keep everyone safe when no one wants to try and stay safe.

Chico then tells Earth a tale about how Molly (<- Their Monty) was before she died. According to Chico, Molly was a lot like Earth, feeling like she had the weight of the world on her shoulders, she was the protector of the group and none of them really bothered to ask if she was okay when they should have and Chico thinks maybe that explains why Molly eventually became the evil abusive butthole Earth and Lunar got to know.

Chico says he doesn't want that to happen to Earth and that maybe he and her can talk to the others about actually taking steps to protect themselves so they don't have to rely on Earth all the time.

Earth says she appreciates that. They hug and then Earth goes off to charge cause she desperately needs it.

This episode really gives us a look into Earth's psyche. We get to see how she is now unfortunately taking up the role of the 'protector' of the group and how that is negative effecting her both emotionally, mentally, and physically, but it looks like there's hope.

The rest of the gang are gonna start taking their safety more seriously and may even learn to throw hands like Earth and Harvest.

Also Good friend/maybe boyfriend(???) Chico! 👍

"Nova and Frost fight"

Oh, boy. Sun! We need you to play marriage counselor for Day and Night!

Okay, so the episode picks up where the last one left off. Brief recap: Sun told NovaFrost the truth about their Creator and revealed the unfortunate truth that he and now whoever has taken his place has used Nova and Frost to kill kids and let's just say they didn't take all that very well...

The episode opens with Nova playing air hockey seemingly by himself. Rosiebell asks what's Nova doing and he says "I'm playing air hockey with Frost. H-he's not very good at it though."

Then cuts to the other side of the table and we see that faint ghostly version of Frost that Day sees when he is in control. Frost points out the obvious fact that he can't actually pick up the puck.

Rosiebell asks how they both are doing after learning what their Creator had them do.

Nova says he just doesn't want to talk about it. Rosiebell says he has to talk about it eventually cause it's not good to hold this kind of stuff in.

Rosiebell goes to get Frost a snack, giving Frost and Nova some time to talk.

Frost and Nova talk about everything Sun told them and Frost admits to Nova that he kind of knew to an extent

Nova is shocked by this revelation and asks Frost what he means. We know Frost remembers bits and pieces when they blackout. Frost says he remembers small bits but never anything involving the kids.

Nova gets mad at Frost and says he should have told him that maybe if he had told him they could have stopped all this sooner.

Frost says there was nothing they could have done. They were both controlled and it was only bits and pieces Frost remembers not all of it, there was nothing they could have done.

Rosiebell comes back when she hears arguing and Nova asks Rosiebell does she think him and Frost are monsters? Rosiebell says no.

She doesn't see them as monsters, she sees them as victims. People who were used by a monster.

She tells NovaFrost they have a support system and if they need it, they're all here for them.

Rosiebell leaves to go make tangerine/chocolate cupcakes.

Frost tells Nova that maybe they need to stop killing altogether. No more homicide even if it is a bad guy.

No more killing.

Frost says they can just play detective. Track the bad guys down and expose them to the cops that way kids don't have to suffer and they can still protect them without killing their abusive parents.

Nova agrees.

The episode ends with Frost saying he loves Novie and Nova says he loves him too.

It's always sad when the nice character(s) find out they secretly played a part in some bad guy's plot. I hope Nova and Frost will be okay.

Frost brought up the possibility of maybe talking to Sun and Moon since they have been through something similar.

Nova, Frost, don't talk to Moon. Sun? Sure. Moon? No. No. No.

Moon is in a weird spot. He was under the control of his killcode but not in the same vain as Sun was with BloodMoon. It was like an urge Moon couldn't fight not like Sun where it was like possession.

So, yeah, stick to Sun or you might go right back to killing if you find out what Moon did.

And lastly, today's episode of TEASS...

"Saturn and Clipper make up"

Aw, kissy. : )

So the episode picks up after the crossover.

Clipper and Saturn are sitting on top of the play structure talking about all that has happened in the last couple of hours.

Clipper apologizes for mistaking Earth and Mars for Saturn's siblings and more importantly apologizes for lying to Saturn and not telling her everything he's been doing.

Saturn says she forgives him but asks why he's been so off lately. They don't usually lie to each other.

Clipper admits that he's been so off cause of her injury and while he knows his wife is quote "A beautiful and powerful war empress" he sees himself as more of a crutch and not in the good way.

Saturn asks what does Clipper mean by that and he says he's the weak link. Saturn is tough and strong and he's... well.. he's Clipper.

He says he blames himself for her getting hurt and that's why he's been training and getting upgrades so he can keep up with her.

He also admits that he may have kind of, sort of mained Austin. Which surprises Saturn.

Clipper explains how he gave into his Moon-side and attacked Austin. He admits he never likes giving into that dark side but when Austin hurt Saturn, he had to hurt him back. He doesn't want anyone to hurt his wife.

He tells Saturn that's why he kissed her so suddenly a earlier cause she keeps him grounded. He didn't want to stay in that Moon-mode so he kissed Saturn to ground himself.

Saturn says Clipper is the thing that grounds her too. So they both keep the other's head on their shoulders.

Saturn says she forgives Clipper for everything and that if he wants to train, she can teach him too but right now they deserve some time to relax and she assures him. She's not going anywhere.

She asks Clipper what he wants to do now and they try to kiss but then Miss b÷tch-a-lot/The C.E.O. Claudia arrives shouting for Clipper.

Saturn vanishes before she can spot her and Clipper grumbles about how he can never catch a break.

He asks the C.E.O. what she wants and she says she's been searching for his miserable existence all day and that they need to talk. (Uh oh.)

The episode ends with Clipper asking the C.E.O. if he is in trouble and she says "Keep that thought in mind"

I guessing tomorrow's episode will be "Clipper is interrogated" or "Clipper finds out the truth"

Where the C.E.O. reveals she knows about Saturn and that if Clipper doesn't give her up she'll have him and all his friends scrapped or she'll just ask him a bunch of questions and when she doesn't get answers she'll reveal that Freddi told her that there is someone in the Pizza-plex that she intends to find.

Point is, tomorrow's episode is gonna be intense.
