the Luke reveal is arguably one of the most iconic YA twists. It was one of those things that everybody agreed never to spoil without saying a word to each other. we just read it got hype as shit and then pass the book off to the next person telling them nothing before grabbing the next book from the library.
literally tho, it was like the #1 unspoken law of YA readers never to spoil it
Dang, I really wish I could have read the book without knowing the twist. I watched the movie and of course one of the few important plot details that they kept (and the only one of the main three antagonists) is Luke. I don't remember it even registering as much of a twist as a kid, just a thing that happened in the movie.
I REMEMBER THIS UNSPOKEN RULE TOO OMG
It hurts so much as a kid reading it cause Percy really does look up to Luke who is like 19 and awesome
Its also more heartbreaking when it happens. Luke and Percy are just chilling being bros, then Luke starts talking about leaving camp and calls in a small monster to attack percy. Then leaves him for dead. At his point Percy was pretty sure that the prophecy was over. he assumed the "friend" meant Ares since he "helped" them on their quest. So he was a fake friend, so when Luke is revealed it hits hard.
Their true forms are basically their godly appearances, what they look like when not civilian-like, mortals can’t look without disintegrating
I imagine it being similar to the OG Hercules animated film but more mature
Actually has some basis in the mythology, I have at least one example in my head where one of Zeus’s mortal lovers convinces him to show her his true form to sort of ‘prove he is Zeus’ and seeing it reduces her to ash
@@ryanbagley3293 Poor poor Semele
As someone who’s read the books multiple times I have to say I am overall very happy with this series. Yes, I would have loved to have a few more episodes to expand upon the story but I am very happy with what we got and am looking forward to the next season.
Completely agree, I think everyone would love if the episodes were longer…but maybe for season 2? 🤞
I the series has enough episodes as is. the episode lengths are the problem like every episode is a different length and not in the typical way where the length fluctuates depending on the time needed to tell that part of the story like most shows. they really needed to have hour long episodes so that they could flesh stuff out and make the fight scenes not be so short. and like if they were to stick with 25 minute episodes like that did than yea should have more episodes split set pieces up give big important fights the whole 20 minutes like anime does
@@RabbiB0Yyeah the show felt rushed which is crazy cause they filmed for like 6+ months and had almost a year of post production. The fun of streaming is that you dont have to be coonstricted to a soecific time so why 23-30min ep
Yea it wasn’t perfect but it was enjoyable. I don’t get people who says otherwise
I think even if not more episodes, I would have loved slightly longer episodes, even 10 mins each episode would have made it so much better
The fail to save what matters most line refers to his mom! In making the decision to leave the underworld without her, he “fails” in what he initially planned to do (although he got her back a different way). Luke hints at that when he replies “your mom?” after Percy talks about the line towards the beginning of their conversation. Definitely more subtle though!
See, I had a bit different interpretation. When I read the books, I thought that Percy had failed to save Sally from Gabe, and that was because she had to save herself. Granted, Percy gave her the tool to do that, but she had to do it for herself. So really, that part had nothing to do with the Underworld and everything to do with how Gabe treated Sally.
@@brattneyrose5652 yeah that was also part of the Prophecy in the books! that verse refered to both Sally being in the Underworld and her abusive marriage with Gabe, but since they just made Gabe a duche in the series they left that part out.
Percy calling Kronos grandpa was hilarious, wild that there’s only 2 generations separating the king of titans from a sassy 7th grader.
"Grandpa"
that line freaking KILLED me lmao
Also, I _loved_ their portrayal of ichor (the gold blood of immortals) and true forms (you look upon a god's true form and you'll be immediately incinerated, Dionysus's mortal mother was incinerated by looking upon ZEUS's true form, arguably the most powerful one)
oh yeah, also the reason backbiter (Luke's sword) has a gold and a gray side, is because one half is celestial bronze, the other mortal steel or iron, I can't remember which. But it's both worlds fused together. And it's incredibly unstable, like two same ends of a magnet forced together. Its an extremely volatile weapon.
The Oracle's vision only extends to the end of the quest, and since Percy's mother had not yet returned by the end of the quest, he did fail to save what mattered most "in the end."
In an interview, the showrunners revealed that Gabe's death under different circumstances leaves that line unresolved to possibly come true in a different way in the future.
Aries body slamming and beefing with a 12year old is hilarious 😂
Percy just further angering Zeus was like poking an angry bear with a stick. You piss off Zeus long enough, rest assured he would end you right then and there because he has THAT big of an ego. An Lance Reddick, may he rest in peace, performed the God of Thunder flawlessly and I know it’s going to be hard to find someone who can recast him.
Apparently, Lance Reddick had a blast playing Zeus. And in the books, Zeus hates Percy even without that and has wanted to kill him on MULTIPLE occasions!!!
In Greek mythology looking upon the true form of one of the gods can literally kill a mortal, it’s essentially a manifestation of the gods’ power and if a mortal sees it they’ll burn up. It’s what happened to Dionysus’ mother in the myths, Hera tricked her into making her ask Zeus to show her his true form knowing he had promised to do anything for her and it killed her, Dionysus survived as a fetus and Zeus sewed him into his thigh so he could finish developing as a baby.
[SPOILERS]
"the true form of one of the gods can literally kill a mortal"

unless your name is Jason Grace-
@@feonix813 [SPOILERS]
Well…it did do that there was just some other stuff going on that cancelled it out 😭
@@feonix813 actually, jason indeed died when he saw hera's true form, but since at that time thanatos had been chained by th giant alcyone n th doors of death had been forcibly opened n chained in a fixed place by gaia n her forces his soul managed to come back
@@Gradestar10That’s not true. How he gets brought back is by, Piper charmspeaking his soul back to life.
@@kitsalmonovitch6978 no, u're wrong. Piper uses her charmspeak but his soul returns cause death was chained in alaska at that time, it's find out in 'th son of neptune'. Go check it out. Charmspeak is a type of hypnotism or persuasion that aphrodite/venus, her kids n loki 2 possess, in which it allows th speaker to convince some1 else to do or get whatever they want. It doesn't resurrect th dead
Whenever you guys get watch, the behind-the-scenes of the making of Percy Jackson and the Olympians it was very sweet a lot of standard behind-the-scenes stuff but the shot the commentaries from the parents and how they interact with their kids on the show. It’s so sweet it’s just a very sweet behind-the-scenes look.
so the first reunion with his mom WAS exactly how it happened, he was just dreaming about it later on too, when he was interrupted in his dream by Kronos
I appreciated how sensible they made Luke's argument. Luke isn't just some kid striking out blindly, he's someone who has wrestled with the unjustness of this world and wants change.
Now, Kronos definitely capitalized on that to get what he wants, and there's no reason to believe the King of Titans would treat you any better than the King of Gods (at least Zues didn't go around eating his demigod kids??) But you can at least see how he got there.
It makes the betrayal hurt that much more because you can tell he really did consider Percy a friend, really did consider Annabeth a sister. But in his mind this was the only way for things to ever improve.
Chronos might be big and scary, but he's an idea. Luke is grounded, Luke is real. Crafting him into the antagonist is just a brilliant end to the first book/tv series of a 5 part tale.
I know it's a little thing, but when I was a kid, I always imagined Backbiter to be intimidating to fight against. I'm glad the episode showed how it and Luke are both formidable. I'm really hoping that this show gets a quick renewal for Season 2 and beyond. It's too good to drop.
I appreciate that Sally focused on making Percy Blue PANCAKES in the show cuz in the books it was always Blue WAFFLES 💀 😂
Oh no
Edit: I must've repressed that bit lol
Grover’s searcher’s license is sooo cute 😭😭🥹🥹
We see more of Grover's quest for Pan in The Sea of Monsters and The Battle of the Labyrinth with Grover finally finding Pan with the help of Percy, Annabeth, Tyson, Rachel Elizabeth Dare and Nico di Angelo in the latter book. Grover's search is on hold during The Titan's Curse because he was sent to find more demigods instead, but Pan sends Grover a giant boar to help him and speaks directly to Grover.
@@WarGrowlmon18 ?? What’ does this have to do with my comment?
"fail to save what matters most in the end" was failing to retrieve sally from hades when he went first. he had to give her up to go get the helm. so that's what that line meant.
But he didn't, he got her back. He even fulfilled his agreement with Hades before he went to Zeus.
This is a classic case of multiple interpretations of a prophecy
@@Omn1Media that's how prophecies work, esp in pjo, they are very literate, and he did, in that one moment, failed to save her. he failed to do what he had set out to do, which is go to hades and get sally. he had to give her up to get the helm.
@Omn1Media yeah but the quest was over by then. That's the thing. The Oracle's prophecies are suuuper vague. Basically it could be reinterpreted as "You're going to fail to save your mom when you go to the underworld." Doesn't mean it won't happen later. The whole thing about Greek mythology and prophecies is that knowing the prophecies often end up causing them to come true. Like Oedipus. If his parents had t sent him away to avoid the prophecy, none of the prophecy would have happened. Prophecies are a whole mess lol
@@seansilence2697 If we are going with the logic of the quest was over by then, he also didn't return the bolt either but they qualified that as fulfilled. This is more about my interpretation being wrong when the vagueness and loose-ness of the meaning is what is being defended. You could also say that she wasn't what mattered most because he chose to forgo saving her for something more important than either of them which failed.
Mann, I teared up when they showed Lance as Zeus, gone too soon.
chiron saying he's proud of percy doesn't necessarily Need to hit in that way, bc iirc from the book at this point they dont have much more of a relationship than in the show. He's trying to positively reinforce percy to their side, because he knows how dangerous it would be if percy really did quietly agree with luke.
"Faun and Hermione"!!! I laughed so hard! I mean, there are a lot of parallels to the HP story, even if Rick Riordan tried not to.
I am so glad I saw this show! After I'm done going through my new HP set of books (Slytherin House set, got it for Christmas), I'm going to start on the Percy Jackson books.
In the books, Percy was so afraid when meeting Gods that he kept calling Hades "uncle". It is true though that he gets on people's nerves, like sending Olympus Medusa's head and travelling by air which is Zeus's domain. Zeus in the books, was also poor tempered. He left the throne room to clean the bolt and told Percy that if he returns and sees him still in Olympus then he will vaporise him. This is just like what Mr D said when he gave Percy the quest and had to leave for Olympus.
And hades tells him that he's gonna kill him and use his skeleton to lead his army.
@elizabethblack2674 I am reading the lost hero now and they are angry at him again. They are like "thank you for saving Olympus but we hate you".
I was thinking at the end of the fifth book that all Gods claiming their children and having cabins at camp could be disastrous. There would be so many cabins, so many campers and all minor Gods will have the same influence as the major ones. It would weaken Zeus' rule. At the same time, I think it was the right move and his rule was already weakening. After the second Titan war, I guess people got more confident in overthrowing Olympus.
I think what Percy lost most in the end was his friendship with Luke which mattered to him (remember his burning of the blue candy)
What mattered to Percy the most was his mom, not Luke
When I read the book, I thought "fail to save what matters most" is that he realizes what's important and doesn't actually save his mother. She is returned to him, but he failed to save her. It can be read in multiple ways, I think - and I've heard other people toss around the idea that Luke & Annabeth as family is "what matters most," too, because... well, he's a traitor. In the book they actually meet the deadline so the stakes are slightly altered, but I think reading the war/peace as "what matters most" is totally valid too.
I love the prophecies in Riordan's books. They're all so good!
Fawn and Hermione was such a good joke. 🤣
It's such a great unintentional read on Grover if he hasn't read "The Heroes of Olympus" series.
They can actually do a lot with the recasting of Zeus because the gods technically can present themselves as whatever they want, so for example Aphrodite changes shape of the eye of the beholder to what that person finds attractive
I really hope they respect Lance Reddick's final performance and don't try deepfaking him into later seasons. He was phenomenal as Zeus and this episode deserves to carry that legacy instead of it being cheapened by CGI'ing him for the next 5ish years. I got legitimately emotional when he showed up. RIP what a legend
Also, damn that Poseidon/Zeus/Percy scene was amazing. It was a bit of a departure from the books again but I honestly loved what they did far better. Poseidon sacrificing his pride to save his son was the perfect way to bring the Sally scene in ep 7 full circle. Plus the implication that Poseidon still dreams of her was an unexpected but additionally powerful touch. For whatever flaws the show has had I love how much it gave the story a strong emotional core, something the movies were sorely lacking imo
Anyway I'm so glad you enjoyed the series! As a book fan it's been a ton of fun seeing you get so into it. If you thought this was great, the story gets even crazier from here on out. The finale hinted at some stuff to come, particularly Grover's line about where he was headed after camp, so I'm hoping they get to work on season 2 asap
I don't see why they wouldn't just change actors. The gods can look however they like, so it even works in universe.
@@seansilence2697 I mean yeah it makes the most sense but Disney seems to be a bit too attached to the deepfake/CGI tech since they keep actively avoiding recasting in other projects. I'm hoping they get over their aversion to it - in some cases deepfake is fine but personally I think they've gone overboard in trying to either de-age or flat out digitally re-create people. If recasting makes sense, just recast
In an interview, the showrunners said that Lance had a blast playing Zeus and they have to figure out how to honor that if there are future seasons. However, they have time to do that because in the books, Zeus doesn't appear again until what would be the third season.
To be fair, Luke is right about the Gods but teaming up with Kronos is step too far for Percy.
Also, I loved that meeting between Poseidon and Percy.
It definitely seems like it would've been a far more attractive idea if Kronos wasn't involved, though also far less likely to succeed.
Exactly!!! A lot of fans point out that for Percy, the gods are generally just the lesser of two evils.
poseiden's actor tobi stephens played in black sails its a pirate show , amazing
RIP Lance-who also voiced Thordak the Cinder King in LoVM
As a book reader I LOVED the show!! For sure they've changed a few things, but I'll be honest, it makes for a much more enjoyable watch for me... I have the context knowledge of the books without the show being too TOO predictable, it's like a new telling of one of my favourite stories 🙌 I just think with the amount of rich lore they had at their fingertips they really should of considered hour long episodes. Hopefully they learn from it and go ahead with longer episodes for season 2, there's enough books for there to be some decent growth if they make the right changes going forward.
I totally get alot of book lovers being a little butt-hurt, but for real... A word for word translation of book to screen would make for an incredibly boring and predictable show for any book fan. (that being said, I do wish there was less "tell" and more "show") Percy having a destinct lack of discovery and just knowing stuff in advance is a little bit of an odd choice, but obviously something Rick wishes he'd done from the get go? 🤷♂️ I feel like alot of the show infact is Rick going back and reckoning all the things he wants to change about his books 😂
This is exactly how i feel about the show.
I read the books back when they were coming out. I'd have loved more time to do the story, but otherwise, I'm very happy with the series. I want all the seasons.
Loved your reaction to the series! I haven’t actually read the books in years but I’m very happy with how the show turned out! A great finale episode to the season and I can’t for season 2!
When percy used the tidal wave on ares, I felt like percy had a "GETSUGA TENSHOU" moment
This is where you get to see how Percy's greatest talent, one he's born with and didn't need any training to do: really pissing off the gods lol
I loved this finale. I think it's the best episode of the season
Agreed!
hands down
I love how zeus pretends he doesn't care that kronos is back, making him look smarter again, his ego is so huge
"ares, god of snipers" made me laugh really hard
My favorite episode! As a book reader, I agree with you, a very strong season 💙 Love all aspects of it: cinematography, worldbuilding, set design, monster design, acting.
Also, as other people said, this is how Percy and his mom reunited. Percy was just dreaming about it and Kronos interrupted it!
Ready for Season 2
PS: Rest in Peace Lance, the best Zeus
Imagine Lance Riddick being threatening as Zavala in D2. I will miss him dearly a a fantastic human being.
You can't see the true form of the gods without getting killed and Luke's sword Backbiter can kill gods demigods and mortals cause it's part celestial bronze and part iron
So, the prophecy messed up 'you will fail to save what matters most in the end.' He saved everything. Got the bolt, got the helm, got his mother. He didn't fail anything.
I ❤ this series hope for another season, Omn1 thank you for finally reacting to this series I’ve enjoyed your reactions ❤
No one can't see the gods true from. For mortals it dissintagrates them and for demigods is kills them, is like seeing the Basilisc from Harry Potter right in the eyes.
I loved watching this with u. Thank u for staying positive durante the episodes
My interpretation of the line “fail to save what matters most in the end” has always been Percy failing to turn Luke back at the end of this quest.
I've read other people with that theory too.
"Faun and Hermione" killed meXD
Season 2 asap
I can’t wait for Percy to get better at using his powers .
percy ultimately failed to save his mom from the underworld. i mean he gets her back but he originally failed
Damn, you caught up fast!
Because the plan was to get his mom back and he “failed” his mom back was only because hades being nice because he gave him back his helm. Yeah, he failed to save what matters most (for him). He didn’t care about the bolt or anything else what matters most for him is to save his mother and he failed.
This was a fantastic end to the season; the episode somehow managed to exceed my expectations! (R.I.P to Lance Reddick).
Overall I would give the season an 8 to 8.5, The fast pacing left a bit to be desired early on, but that eventually settled. I love the whole cast of the show, their interactions and motivations are a treat to see!
This just gets me excited for the "Sea of Monsters" adaptation, they should be able to build upon the groundwork of this season with hopefully a bigger budget and longer/more episodes per season. I wholeheartedly reccomend this series to newcomers and book fans alike!
I love this show and I can’t wait for season two 🎉
The Scene with the Stepfather reminded me somehow of Time Bandits, that very dark ending xD
I think what matters most is friendship. The betrial cause the « lose what matters most »
I don’t think Gabe deserved the fate of being turned to stone in the show, but as a long time fan of the books, Gabe absolutely deserved it and it was freakin ICONIC when it happened (Sally sells the statue as an art piece and makes bank lol)
In an interview, the showrunners revealed that Gabe's death under different circumstances leaves that line unresolved to be possibly come true in a different way in the future.
A place Lance was also very threatening in was being the main dragon in Vox Machina as-well (which you made a reference to in the first eps with “dagger dagger dagger” from Vax) in both he is a king, king of the Gods and King of the Dragons.
Right, I was meaning live action appearances! I should have been more clear! haha
@@Omn1Media that’s the only one I could think of also tbh. His voice was very powerful. RIP
the wiki says this about the last line of the prophecy: "In the end, Percy failed to save his mother. He had to leave her in the Underworld with Hades as he only had three pearls. Hades returns her after receiving his Helm of Darkness"
In an interview, the showrunners revealed that Gabe's death under different circumstances leaves that line unresolved to possibly come true in a different way in the future.
In the original book, the line “Fail to save what matters most in the end” refers to Sally
Specifically in the book, Gabe is a MUCH more monstrous, abusive asshole, who is absolutely not comedic at all. After Sally and Percy return, Gabe slaps Sally across the face, and Percy considers using the Medusa head to kill him.
But Sally tells him not to, and that it shouldn’t be his responsibility to save her. She needs to save herself, and Percy needs to be OK with that. That’s what the line refers to - Percy fails to save his mom, because he needs to learn that it’s not always his responsibility to save everyone.
Anyway then Sally kills Gabe with the Medusa head and sells his statue as an art piece to pay for writing school
That's AWESOME - but I can see why that angle didn't make the TV version...
a lot of show watchers say that their not sure if gabe deserved that, and in the show he wasn’t that bad but in the books it’s heavily implied he was physically abusive.
You're all breathtaking.
please react to the documentary!! I’m sure I speak for most of us when I say your reactions to this show have been so enjoyable so I’d love to see you watch that too
The end credit scene was a bit different in the book. It turns out he was hitting Sally and Percy gave the head to his mom to give her so agency and she ended up selling the sculpture of Gabe and the money from that she used to go back to school
If a mortal looks at a gods true form they are instantly vaporized that’s how powerful they are
20:01 in the books smelly gabe's death was much more satisfying because in the books he was portrayed as an abusive stepfather that would beat percy's mom all the time
Rebecca Riordan confirmed that they purposefully toned that down for the show. In an interview, it was revealed that Gabe dying that way has ANOTHER implication: the last line of the prophecy remains unresolved and may come true in a different way in the future.
Summary of the episode that also applies to the work... They cut a lot of the action, created an emo version of the characters including the Gods, and drawn it in soap opera too much. They added a lot of things that had no reason to add and they pruned things without need. But so... As an alternative work to the book it did very well! Good photography, a lot of EMOtion, interesting plot, the actors and actresses did very well. But it's good to understand that it's a different way of telling a story and developing characters in a totally different way to the original work. Riordan's work is practically a narrative of subsequent, not-too-much-descript events, through which the protagonists go through fits and starts without any of these feelings considerations and sentimental dilemmas. Quite the opposite, Percy is a guy who never understands anything right and uses his bile more than his brain, which is, by the way, why he has so many disagreements.
Chiron is also one of the many sons of Kronos
Shame about Lance Reddick, Rest In Peace, but I did quite enjoy his performance. Recasting him will be tough, but I think the best choice is David Harewood. Any Alan Wake fan will know why.
rip zeus
FAWN AND HERMIONE??? 😭😭😭 how long were u waiting to use that one Omni??
Ares' entire purpose in mythology is to put over heroes. Every time they show a 1v1 against Ares, he loses!
Those who have read the books and seen movie we already know who is luke 😂😂😂.
I think that the dream of Percy reuniting with his mother is how it actually happened and then Kronos took over the dream and showed up. Percy's interactions with Chiron are pretty much like in the book, but their relationship before the teacher was revealed to be Chiron is where a lot of their closeness come from and that was skipped over in the first episode. Remember, Percy was at a boarding school. Chiron was actually Percy's favorite teacher at the school You don't get a sense of that from their interactions in the first episode. Percy in the book would have been happy to have made his favorite teacher proud. This Percy? It's much less understandable. To me, at least.
Aw man, I didn't know the actor for Zeus passed away :(
Only 4 to 6 weeks after shooting the episode.
Luke’s plan when you think about it makes sense. Kronos overthrew his father for power, then the Olympians overthrew the primordial Gods who were the parents of the elder Olympians. Seems fit the Demigods take over.
Yeah, but Luke isn't trying to take over, he's trying to put Kronos back in power.
@@WarGrowlmon18 Touché, I think my mind accidentally slipped to 2010 movie Luke’s motive where It was all him
@@antonioakpati7441Yeah, they only had one vague mention of Kronos in Chiron's class at the start and even the second movie where he was working for Kronos didn't confirm that it was Kronos' plan all along.
You mean Kronos overthrew his father and the Primordial Gods and then the Olympians overthrew the Titans, right?
Someone correct me if I’m wrong but I think the gods true forms are light a super bright light that burns anyone who looks at it.
The only thing I don't like is how week they make freaking Ares look.
Spartan Ares:The Boss when you fight him.
Athenian Ares:The Boss when you unlock him as a playable character.
I like how this is so different from the movie but basically the story is the same. Looking forward to season 2
Oh the movies were HORRIBLE. They only very loosely adapted the books. This series, while not exact, is much truer to the source material than the movies.
@@WarGrowlmon18 I enjoyed the first movie. But not the second one.
@@stacyp2186They BOTH weren't that great honestly, but yeah, the first movie was objectively better.
Maybe not so fun but more tragic fact: This was Lance's last project before passing away
Faun and Hermione ROFL
They kinda downplayed the step-dad (his name is Gabe, did they ever say that?) in the show, he's kind of just a generally shitty, whiny loser but in the books it's made pretty clear that in addition to the obvious emotional abuse, he was also physically abusive towards at least Sally but probably Percy as well.
I'm not a big fan of what basically equates to the death penalty being inflicted on anyone but it makes a little more sense in the books I guess?
Yeah he's an absolute monster in the books. So when Sally straight up pulls the Medusa head on him, it was completely cathartic.
I think what they did here was fine though. He obviously isn't murder-worthy in this adaptation, but in this case his death is less "justice served" and more a bit of black comedy resulting from his own comedic stupidity.
I do wonder how Sally's gonna explain the stone statue of Gabe in front of her apartment though.
Rebecca Riordan confirmed that they toned down Gabe's personality on purpose in the show.
Defund the gods!
BOOK SPOILERS
There were some details from percy and luke's last interaction that were left out. They are not entirely important in the long run, but they made percy's feelings of betrayal and horror more prominent. The first is luke's sword. You can kind of see how it looks different, but I don't think non book readers would have picked up on the fact that it is half celestial bronze and half normal steel. When percy sees this, he questions why luke would need the steel since it can't hurt anything from the mythical world. But it can hurt demigods because they are half mortal. This is when he realizes that luke is not only going against gpds and monsters but is fully willing to harm his fellow campers who all look up to him and have nothing to do with the gods behavior. They are just as much victims of the system as luke, but he is still willing to hurt them (and potentially mortals) for his cause. This is something that starts to solidify him as a "bad guy" in percy's mind, because percy has shown time and time again that he is willing to put himself at risk to help others. The other thing is that luke actually releases highly poisonous scorpion monsters on percy in order to get away, and basically almost kills him. Percy spends the last bit of summer in the infirmary recovering from his injuries. This is what makes annabeth and the others realize just how far luke is willing to go.
The part of "you'll shall fail to save what matters most" in the end did come true it was the first part to come true, Percy couldn't save his mother from the underworld and had to leave her behind to defeat Ares. Her mother only returned because Percy did make a deal with Hades to return his helm. The order of the Prophecies sometimes don't follow the order of how it would happen.
In an interview, the showrunners revealed that Gabe's death under different circumstances leaves that line unresolved to possibly come true in a different way in the future.
In the book Gabe deserved it absolutely, series gabe was just a loser so... thats kinda messed up
Which Im glad they framed it as Gabe digging through packages not meant for him and getting petrified technically by accident
Yeah, he's a loser, he lost when he opened a package that wasn't meant for him.

If someone were to look at a god's true form, they would go blind or just turn into dust
It killed Thalia's little brother Jason
Trust me from the books GABE 100% deserved it
The most interesting his mom and his not save here from the underworld and was nid to go save the world
Hades let here go but petcy not save here
Also, the Gabe Ugliano from this show is a lite version. The one in the books was way worse and definitely deserved to be turned to stone.
but watching this eps made me hate being right
You have the mic, you don't have to shout.
you cant know their true from or you burn
