Episode 10 - Mantis Swarm

This is the Tenth episode in the storyline of "Humans-B-Gone!" and the first episode in the "Third Semester." You can watch it here.
=== Episode Summary ===
The episode begins with the next section of the flashback to Dulsin. Young Sophodra is exploring her surroundings before being picked up by Mother Sophodra and brought to the rest of Mantis Swarm. Once there, she encourages her to go to Empusa for training. 
Once she arrives at Empusa with the six other mantis nymphs in the Swarm, he gives her a name, Fescue, with the promise that she can change it to a more suitable one once she's an adult. One nymph complains that this was their name, Empusa quiets them by changing their name. Empusa then tries to determine if Sophodra emerged from an ootheca, or a generation pod, but does not receive a satisfying answer. He then tries to teach Sophodra, including a stern warning not to go looking for the other nymphs. After the class is concluded, he sets Sophodra with the task of trying to catch a demivolute bear.
He then encounters Bicoris, who engages in some light flirting. Empusa proceeds to disparage the work ethics of the other mantises in the Swarm and claims that Mother Sophodra is "too lenient with them". Bicoris claims that she would be a better Swarm Mother than her. Changing the subject, Bicoris begins to praise her own beauty, not realizing that Empusa had left and she's talking to a lavender stem.
The episode ends with some narration from Gregorsa reminiscing on Dulsin.
=== Trivia ===
* This is the first episode of the main series not to include a "lecture section" from Gregorsa at the end.
* During production, Biccoris's Model was left in frame unintentionally, causing there to be two correct answers on her section of the "Eye Spy" challenge.
* During the episode, Young Sophodra's claws make metallic noises when they are used. This may allude to the fact that having mantis claws is unambiguously awesome.
