The Owl House. Recap: Episode 12

The more we get to Luz attending Hexside, the more that the Owl House world expands. From learning that the Boiling Isles is a giant skeleton to knowing that the covens are strict about who should join them, each is a piece of the puzzle that creates a new whole.

Trust is the main theme for this episode. Luz wants to trust in her abilities but also appear cool. She also needs to trust in Eda’s teaching. When she slips and endangers everyone, the lesson appears hard. King goes the other way and is too trusting in his own abilities. They both learn that the nearest residents may know best about how to handle a dangerous situation.

Adventures in the Elements

Luz is excited about Hexside and goes to receive book five of Azura from Amity. She takes a moment to gush over the fanart that her new book friend drew and mentions they could start a club at Hexside. Amity then reveals that Luz needs to learn two spells for her entrance exam, otherwise she’ll be put in the baby class. Luz runs in a panic to beg Eda to teach her another spell. Eda is about to refuse because she has dinner vegetables to cook. The vegetables run away after Eda brings them to life, however, and Luz points out that it would look terrible if the Owl Lady’s apprentice was stuck with magical toddlers. Realizing that Luz has a point, Eda concedes with a smile.
