Nancy Drew Season 2 Episode 2 Assessment: The Reunion of Misplaced Souls

Spoilers

It is simply as we suspected. The Drew Crew won’t ever have the ability to catch a break.

The Aglaeca is now not the one risk to their lives, and one other spirit is out to hunt revenge on Nancy Drew Season 2 Episode 2. It was dangerous sufficient that one evil creature was after Nancy and her associates, however two?

Issues simply went from worse to worst. 

Horseshoe Bay is riddled with ghosts. They’re taking over a lot residency that it is in everybody’s greatest pursuits to pack up and let the spirits run amuck. Ghost cities exist for a cause.

It is laborious to grasp why anybody would willingly keep in Horseshoe Bay after figuring out the reality concerning the spirits who reside there. Perhaps Nick’s mother had the correct thought by asking him to maneuver again to Florida. 

However, after all, Horseshoe Bay is the Drew Crew’s residence, they usually will not give it up with out a combat. 

I am unable to say I would do the identical, however I can perceive the sentiment. 

Mac’s presence and his risk to Nick’s life did greater than push the principle plot ahead. It additionally confirmed viewers how critically Nancy Drew is taking the connection between Nick and George. 

If the collection had been a stereotypical one, George and Nick can be nothing greater than an impediment in Nick and Nancy’s approach. Nevertheless, the Nancy Drew writers have confirmed that they care about all of the characters they’ve dropped at life on this adaptation.

Nancy Drew is the title, however everybody within the Drew Crew is significant to the present, and that is how they’re handled.

The powers that be look like open to no matter feels pure, and Nick and George’s sudden chemistry is a chief instance of that. 

Nick’s mother and George did not get off to the perfect begin, and it was vital to George to alter that.

George trying to bond along with her was each heartfelt and comedic. George is not the kind of particular person to a lot as crack a smile, not to mention give a tour of Horseshoe Bay. 

Nick: George, are you okay?
George: I am smiling.

Nevertheless, regardless of her greatest intentions, I could not assist however hope that George would drop the facade she was placing on. The actual George Fan is somebody price figuring out. That is who Nick fell for, in any case. Should not his mother get to know that particular person?

When Nick was in bother, nothing else appeared to matter. George put apart her pleasure and let herself be open and weak. Though we have come to grasp why George is the way in which she is all through Nancy Drew Season 1, Nick’s mother hasn’t had that probability. 

I am sorry that I snapped at you earlier than. I’m usually foul-mouthed, prickly, and distrustful. However I’ve a mom who was a neglectful alcoholic and I’ve needed to increase three little sisters by myself. It was actually laborious, however I tailored. And life hasn’t made me good. It is made me vicious. Which is why I am the right particular person to look at Nick’s again. I am right here now as a result of Nick is in bother and I actually do not suppose you must depart when you two are nonetheless in a combat.

George

George’s speech was all properly and good, however actions converse louder than phrases. George’s willpower to maintain Nick protected, regardless of the risk to her personal life, did not go unnoticed by his mom. 

It is laborious to go away your son alone in a city stuffed with offended ghosts, however assembly Nick’s associates was certain to present his mother some peace of thoughts. 

The Drew Crew was capable of put Mac to relaxation, however that was just one drawback on prime of one other larger one. Defeating the Aglaeca is essential, however the plot lacked a way of urgency during the last couple of episodes. 

Who is aware of how lengthy it’s going to take earlier than the Aglaeca comes for them? They have been dwelling their regular lives for days, they usually’ve been okay thus far. Have they got weeks to discover a answer? Months? Years?

Mac’s file offered the reply to that query. The Drew Crew has three days to interrupt the curse, or it is lights out. 

Ace: The Aglaeca involves kill you after seven days.
Nancy: Now we have precisely three days left.

Nobody desires Nancy and her associates to die, however I would be mendacity if I mentioned their impending doom did not fire up some pleasure. 

The dilly-dallying between main scenes made the Aglaeca really feel like a future drawback slightly than one thing imminent. Now that the Drew Crew has a time restrict, and a brief one at that, every thing’s going to need to amp up a notch.

Due to the not-so-friendly ghost of Mac, Nancy lastly is aware of the place to start out. 

George: It must be AJ.
Nick: And if he is leaving flowers…he is nonetheless alive.
Nancy: And he is aware of the best way to defeat the Aglaeca.

It’s potential to flee the Aglaeca’s curse, and AJ resides proof of that. The one factor left to do is observe him down and get him to fess up. How did he do it?

Nancy has a knack for discover individuals, in order that’s not the difficulty we’re anxious about. The actual drawback is probably going to be what AJ has to say. 

The curse clearly wasn’t damaged if AJ’s associates nonetheless ended up lifeless. Did he discover a technique to save himself and throw them to the wolves? It is believable to suppose that the way in which to interrupt a curse is with one other sacrifice of some kind. 

In hindsight, it doesn’t matter what AJ tells them, it is not going to be the right answer to their issues. In addition to, that is Nancy Drew.

When has something ever come simple?

Stray Ideas:

  • Nancy’s acceptance of Nick and George’s relationship was simply what we wished. There was no hostility between any of them. Nancy genuinely cares about her associates’ happiness, and it is refreshing to see characters who’re so mature. 
  • Ace’s skill to see the great in individuals is likely one of the greatest issues about him. Nancy remains to be offended at her father, and whereas it is comprehensible, the Drew Crew is sort of actually on demise row. Ace usually will get by way of to Nancy in a approach that others cannot, and we’re glad that his encouragement helped her take that first step to forgive Carson. 
  • I could not assist however marvel what the Drews’ dwelling state of affairs is. If Carson rented his personal residence, does that imply he simply moved out and gave nineteen-year-old Nancy the home? Except they plan on by no means making up, renting a resort room would have been a greater possibility.
  • Bess has taken a little bit of a backseat these final couple of episodes, but it surely’s laborious to slot in everybody’s particular person plotline on prime of the principle story. Nonetheless, we will not wait to see what Nancy Drew Season 2 has in retailer for her.
