Looks like Yumi might try to cure William, seeing is that in the commericals she sticks something in his forehead.(EDIT: Oh it was just her shut fan)

LOL at Suzanne waking up so Jim can't give her mouth-to-mouth^_^.

The gang also seems to be back in thier old outfits for this episode.

Uh oh, William can go in towers. Crap.

[k-day42]

Why the old outfits!?

I like their new ones better!:(

[Movie06]

It's interesting so far, it's cool.

[J.E.Smith]

Looks like Yumi's really feeling for William now...
Why the old outfits!?

I like their new ones better!:(

I think Aelita looks cuter in the hoodie than her new dress personally.

I think Aelita looks cuter in the hoodie than her new dress personally.

I like both of her outfits to tell you the truth.

"So what would happen if the lake were to dry up?"
"Uh... we'd be able to walk home?"

Another electrifying episode!

Could it be, with Yumi finally starting to get through to William? Sigh... between this and the 'forced' moment with Sissi wanting to pitch her tent, it makes me hate that the writers have toned down the romance on this show.

Interesting program Jeremie and Aelita put together to protect the Skid, and a good battle between Yumi and William. Plus, Aelita for the save!

"The Lake": 3.5/5.

I really liked this episode a lot. Much better than the last one.
William was able to resist XANA for a few seconds. Yumi put up a good fight, but Aelita defeats him again. Thats 2 wins for Aelita against William.
And now that we know that William is able to into the tower, there is no place thats safe on Lyoko. Towers used to be the only save haven for the gang, not anymore.

I figure if Xana possesses Aelita, he can take control of all of Lyoko since Aelita is still the only one who can deactivate towers, though apparently William can to as long as he's possessed by Xana since he did last week.I won't actually see this weeks episode until Saturday, but it sounds like it should be great, and I'm glad to see Aelita is now using her brains and brawns to become the best out of the Lyoko warriors.

[Kagetsu]

That was one fugly antenna. :sad: There wasn't a single bit of it that would resonate on frequency. :shrug:

Yumi really went for a tactic change trying to appeal to the real William. Always before she was out blood. Some really good closeup of her expressions. William in the tower was unexpected as was the total destruction of the skithazoa. Aelita is cuter in her hoodie. :D

Still a fun episode with lots of Yumi/William fighting action. Though I wonder why they ever came up with the idea of having her miss catching her fan and getting her fingers stung. :sad:

[Dark Soul]

I wasn't impressed by the episode first time i see it in a very very long time. It seems different and defiantely the romance has died down plus sissi is always very very annoying.

Sorry guys it just wasn't for me at all

[KPTitan]

I really liked this episode, especially XANA's tactics in this one. Attack the Skid with the scyphazoa while attacking the students with a huge-*** lightning storm. NO, I AM NOT ROOTING FOR THE BAD GUY PEOPLE!!! lol. I was wondering if the scyphazoa was gonna come back, and we finally saw it get blown up like the other monsters. So, now there's 3 things that we know of that it can do:

1. XANA possesses people through it
2. takes data/memory from people's brains
3. suck the living daylights outta the Skid

Dangit, they didn't have they're new school clothes this time....I liked Aelita's because it makes her look more her age, while her new one makes her look more older.:anime:

William can go into towers!?!....*cues Jaws music* dun-dun......dun-dun....lol.

[Marinite]

I was honestly expecting XANA to create some Jason Voorhees monster, since they were camping at a lake and all.

[kirschy]

Why is everyone so surprised that William can go into a tower? To me it doesn't seem odd at all. While William is doing Xana's bidding he's never needed to go into a tower. Xana activates and deactivates the towers not William. That's why we've never seen William in a tower before. However there's no reason William couldn't enter a tower any more than any of the other Lyoko gang. And in this instance Xana used that ability to give William a tactical advantage, surprise, to use against Yumi. But then that's partially Yumi's fault. She knew William was with the crabs since she saw it on the supercomputer before she went to Lyoko. She also knew she hadn't eliminated him, so she shouldn't have dropped her guard. Anyway... I'm probably over analyzing that. On the whole I thought it was a good episode. And I agree, Yumi did seem a bit upset she wasn't able to get William back.

I finally watched the episode today on CN Video, and I found it to be enjoyable. I loved how Kiwi was finally exposed, but the return to the past made Yumi the dog sitter at the end. The electric smudge reminded me of the Creature from the Black Lagoon, but it was cool how Ulrich sacrificed himself to allow Aelita to get away.

Yumi owned those crabs, but it was a bit of a surprise to see William come up behind her like that. It was cool seeing William try and fight though.

Aelita would make a great sniper. First she sniped William, and then she sniped Yumi.

I get the feeling that Xana wasn't solely attacking the skid. I get the feeling he was draining the data so he could create William his own skid so he doesn't have to protect him in the digital sea all the time.
