Synopsis
Felicia and Harry are climbing a large tree, as Felicia wants Harry to work on his wilderness and survival skills. However, Morrigan, who has changed her form to a large bat, attacks, and captures Harry. Felicia tracks down Jon and asks him for help. The two eventually find Morrigan and Harry, but Morrigan has gotten Harry under her spell, having wanted to make him her pupil. The two attack Felicia and Jon.
Morrigan and Harry use a spell to reveal a hidden city under a lake: Warlock Haven. Morrigan intends to create her own army, and summons some of ancient Scotland's mightiest warriors. Jon and Felicia manage to find them, and start fighting the warriors. The fight results in Harry breaking free from Morrigan's influence, but in doing so, causes the repelled water to crash back in, re-submerging the city. Everyone is washed back up, but Morrigan finds Harry, and intends to kill him.
However, Felicia and Jon find her. Jon fights Morrigan, and when she tries to escape by flying away, he grabs her, causing them both to crash into the sea. Morrigan is beamed back up to Pyron's ship, whilst Felicia and Harry find Jon is his human form. But the clouds above them move away, revealing the full moon. Jon transforms back to his werewolf form. Harry says he's sorry for causing all this trouble. Felicia tells him he didn't cause it -Morrigan did. Jon says when they meet Morrigan again... he suddenly howls very loudly.
-Most places, including the ADV DVD set, have this episode as the eighth one, whilst Aliens Keep Out is the ninth. However, according to the air dates, Aliens Keep Out was aired as the eighth episode, whilst this one was the ninth.
-This episode must have been running short -there are a lot of pointless, time-wasting shots in it, such as zooming in on random backgrounds (such as this shot of the sun) and a few shots of characters walking or running that go on for a bit.
-What's the deal with the farmer? He puts the food out and then runs away. It seems to imply he knows of Jon's existence, and puts plates of food out to deter him from eating his sheep?
-What happened during Jon's flashback is never explained, or brought up again.
-This episode also has a very small number of characters appearing in it, with only 3 of the regular cast showing up: Harry, Felicia and Morrigan.
-Felicia's rear is skin colored instead of white during this shot.
-During this shot, part of Morrigan's hair disappears for a frame.
-The cookie on the plate of food the farmer puts out is initially colored green.
-When Jon looks at the cookie, the top of his head is colored white instead of gray.
-There's something not right with this shot... it's like the door is in the middle of the cave instead of on a wall.
-Morrigan suddenly loses her dressing gown where she talks about her and Harry's ancestors.
-Jonathan consistently seems to pronounce Morrigan's name as "Morgan".
-When Felicia says "look!", she's suddenly not wearing her hiking outfit. Her breast is also skin colored instead of white.
-Felicia's butt is skin colored instead of white again during this shot.
-The patch on this guy's left arm briefly vanishes.
-When Jon enters the diving shop, he clips through the wall.
-Morrigan's wing isn't fully drawn during this shot.
-Morrigan tells Harry her warriors are immortal, yet Felicia and Jon smash them to bits with ease, and they aren't seen getting back up.
-The top of Jon's head is colored white instead of gray during this shot.
-When Morrigan throws Jon off of her, Jon's head is colored completely white.
-The red aura effects used during this shot are misplaced, appearing to the right of Morrigan's hands, instead of over them.
