Winx Club S5 E20

## Plot

Just from the title, I can tell that I'm going to hate this episode. I don't care about your triangles and contrived love problems! Continuing where the last episode left off, the singing whales are under mind control. They attack the Winx, allowing the Trix and Tritannus to get away with the seal. Icy and Tritannus don't even thank or acknowledge Darcy and Stormy. Musa insists that the girls can't hurt the whales, even though the noises they make are now super painful. Musa unlocks her Voice of Sirenix. She sings her mom's song and uses it to free the whales, who go home to Melody. So now they're space whale purrgils who can travel through realms? The Winx stabilize the Pillar of Balance. Back on Melody, Musa and her dad talk about her mom. Musa was thinking about using her wish to bring her back to life. But she won't because "that's not right." Incidentally, Musa is the only one who doesn't "please destiny" and grant her wish. So it's not okay to bring Nabu or Matlin back to life, but it's okay for Bloom to bring Daphne back to life by breaking the Sirenix curse? I think I officially hate this show now. It's just so hypocritical! It has unlikable characters, uninteresting villains, terrible animation, horrible continuity, plot, costumes, and ideas in general, different English dubs that don't cover the whole show, etc. Sometimes just thinking about writing a review will give me a headache. There is no incentive for me to keep doing this anymore. But I will, because I said I would, and because I can't wait to finally finish this and imagine rubbing it in a certain someone's stupid face! Faragonda tells the Winx that Professor Palladium will help them train to better understand the natural world. Ugh, just hearing that makes my ears bleed. Stella's new inspiration is nature. She wants to put it all together though. Brandon says that it sounds like too many things. She hangs up on him because she's a brat, second only to Bloom. Tecna and Timmy are texting each other. They supposedly prefer it to actually talking to each other. Musa is still thinking about seeing Riven with another girl in the last episode, and says that you need to look someone in the eye to know if they're being straight with you. Tecna says that Timmy would never cheat on her though. Aisha wonders where Bloom is. Well, Flora's love interest is Helia and Aisha doesn't have one anymore, so at least they'll escape this stupid love drama episode unscathed. Anyways, Bloom and Sky don't like the way they left things. He hasn't called. Okay, so *you* call *him.* Simple as that. It says a lot about a show if the comic relief *bunny* is the one making the most sense. And if Diaspro answers, hang up and call back every 5 minutes. Sky wants to call her, but he's worried that she's still mad at him. A bit harder, but text her I love you or I'm sorry or something like that. He decides to call anyways, but then Diaspro tells him that he has to attend a strategy session. She tells him that his father is impressed at the stance he took against Bloom at the council. Yes, the stance he supposedly took against his longtime, steady girlfriend, who he has proposed to *twice* in the stupid movies! Kiko finally convinces Bloom to call him, but then he calls her. Obviously, it's really Diaspro. She claims that she's handling all of Sky's communications from now on. She claims that if Bloom wants to talk to him in the future, she'll have to go through her. Oh, gladly, you witch. Bloom won't agree to that, and she knows that Sky wouldn't either, so she calls his cell. However, he's in the middle of a meeting. And these supposedly super advanced hologram phones don't even have a vibrate option, or a mute one? Or Sky forgot to turn it off, which I can buy because he can be an idiot sometimes. Not as much as Bloom, but still. Obviously, he can't take the call now. Kiko points out that he could be in a meeting, but Bloom thinks that this can't wait. She calls again. Erendor is mad, but Sky's mom lets him take the call. He missed her though. Seriously, do these stupid phones even have voicemail? For crying out loud Bloom, leave a message if it's so urgent! Or, as Tecna and Timmy have helpfully demonstrated *in this very episode, **TEXT HIM!*** Bloom is back to whining in her room. Flora and Aisha come in. Bloom's Sirenix box shows up. Her Guardian of Sirenix heard her crying and talks to her. She tells her to trust in the love she and Sky have for each other, even when they disagree. Especially since Bloom doesn't think that Sky is interested in Diaspro. Bloom wonders if she's the problem instead of Diaspro. Yes, if you replace the word Diaspro with the show. Flora reminds her of the pendant Sky gave her. She, Aisha, and Kiko cheer her up. Palladium informs the girls that they have an aviary. They have to learn how to understand the environment and the creatures that live there. Their powers will be diminished there. They'll have to use insight and intuition to survive. Um, no one mentioned that this would be a deadly field trip a la the Wildlands in season 2. Also, Palladium's Nick voice actor, Mitchell Whitfield, sounds really familiar. Oh. My. Gosh. He voiced *Phobos* in W.I.T.C.H. This show may have my begrudging respect back again, at least in terms of voice actors. Anyways, while there, a bunch of giant yellow birds attack the girls. I bet they're Big Bird's family. It turns out that they just wanted to eat the golden flowers, and the girls were in the way. They decide to give them more golden flowers as a peace offering. Ever since saying that nature is her new inspiration, Stella has been treating Flora as her muse. She uses her magic to change Flora into a crazy red dress, which scares the golden eagles away from her. A red bird carries her away because it thinks that she's food. The others go after her on the golden eagles. Stella throws a red flower to distract the red bird. It works, and it drops Flora. Stella saves her in time and apologizes to her. Flora just laughs it off. Yeah, it's so funny how you almost died! Except no, no it's not! Gee, it's almost like someone warned you that this place was dangerous! I'd give props to Stella, but she also caused the problem in the first place by being her usual air-headed, ditzy, no common sense or listening skills self. Tritannus puts the second seal in the throne, and his power is drained again. Darcy and Stormy vow to get Icy back, and declare that the Trix will rise again. And the episode is *finally* over.
