World of Winx S2 E13

## Plot

After a brief recap of what happened with Matt in the previous episode, Tink's magic tears are able to repel the mermaids away from him. Yes, seriously. Matt teleports to the surface, summons his sword back, and flies to the boat. He and Hook resume their fight, and this time, Matt wins. He agrees to let Jim go if he surrenders, and he agrees. However, instead of dropping his hook, he throws it at Tink, but Matt is able to deflect it, and blasts him into the water. Tink transforms into her old self and regains her fairy powers. The mermaids recognize her, and apologize for trying to kill her and Matt. She says she understands, since Hook tricked them. She and Matt fly away, and Hook comes out of the water. Not gonna lie, that reminded me of Valtor. He heads back to the Tree of Life, but runs into the Winx. He lifts the tree out of the sky. The spirit of Neverland tells the girls that the tree is the heart of this world, which will be lost if they don't save it. The tree has been turned into the Jolly Roger. They try to attack Jim, but he's behind a forcefield. Here's an idea: Aim for the cannons that are firing at you first, then try using convergence magic to destroy the forcefield. Tink and Matt show up to help them. I love how Bloom's choice of words and tone make it sound like she honestly didn't expect them to make it, get more magic powers, or show up to help them. And I love Aisha's reaction to Matt being able to fly, because it's basically my reaction, mixed with a shrug and quick acceptance because hey, it's the series finale, they can do whatever they want, even if we the fans hate it. Like ending the show on a cliffhanger. Anyways, Flora and Tink tell the others not to destroy the ship, since it's the Tree of Life. Tink can try to shut down the cannons if she gets close enough. The other girls give her some cover while Bloom and Matt try to get to Jim. Hook opens a portal to the World of Nightmares. Smee stops him and steers the ship back. Hook falls through the portal, and loses his magic bell necklace, which Tink gets. Neverland finally goes back to normal. Matt tells everyone else they never could have done it without Smee. He turns the ship back into a tree. Everyone recognizes Tinkerbell as their queen. She apologizes for everything she did, and they forgive her. Matt and Tink say that the true heroes are the Winx, and thank them for everything they did. They head back to Central Park. Before they can get rid of the clones and start playing, Venomya exposes them, and sends the news all over the world. Also, it's confirmed that they're from Gardenia, at least according to the news. Venomya also exposes the Winx as fairies. You'd think people wouldn't believe that without concrete proof, especially considering how season 4 of the main show went, but whatever. Venomya transforms into a old woman, and tells the Winx that the day of reckoning is near. They have the rather obvious realization that she's the saboteur, and she also caused the earthquake. The old woman introduces herself as Baba Yaga, the Dark Dame. She says it will be the end of the Winx when she conjures her coven, thinking that there's not enough room for both fairies and witches on Earth. And that's how the series ends. On a cliffhanger with the use of another stock source for a villain instead of coming up with something new and original. Like an antagonist that's actually sympathetic, or has good intentions? This series was a lot like season 4 of the main show. It's not great. It's not terrible either. It's really just okay. The animation and voice acting is fine. So is the writing, even if the pacing seems like it's all over the place at times. Sometimes it's too slow, and sometimes it's too fast. It's really just an average children's show.
