Notes[]

  • Ben documents that he has taken 5 injections of the mermaid stem cells at this point, he has recently taken another two doses. He will make more extractions.
  • Another effect from the stem cells is increased hearing, this is demonstrated when he stops by to get a latte and hears the conversations of other patrons in the coffee shop. It is also the reason he was able to slay one of Tia's merman warriors while on the island.
  • Calvin is shopping for a suit to wear on his wedding day. Xander helps him build confidence for when he delivers his vows to Janine.
    • Xander is going to be the best man at Calvin's wedding.
  • Ted Pownell goes to Bristol Cove City Hall where he finds records of Rick Marzdan, on his way out he bumps into Xander. Ted is glad that Xander is enlisted at the police academy, but repels his statement about how not all mermaids are bad despite meeting Ryn in "Mixed Signals."
  • Rick tells Beth that he informed Ted Pownell about the location of Caspian Ranch believing it was the right thing to do. Near the end of the episode, Beth unloads a truckload of necessities. She and the hybrids do not trust Ted and will keep a watchful eye on him when he sets foot on the ranch.

  • Maddie learns of Ben's self-experiment in this episode.
  • Xander shoots the assailant merman that was about to kill Cami, afterwards she tells him that they are good. This means that Cami has completely forgiven Xander for killing her mother Donna.

  • Maddie takes Robb to the same cave that Helen took Ryn's tribe to in the episode "Entrapment" where he learns of the peace between mer-people and humans.

  • This episode marks Ben's first kill. While Ben letting Ian drown caused the latter's death, the battle on the island marks his first direct kill.

Quotes[]

As of now I have given myself five injections. My cardiovascular endurance has improved. As of this morning, I can hold my breath underwater for 10 minutes. My lung capacity seems to have increased, as it did with my mother. Today I doubled my dosage. The current batch of stem cells is depleted. I'll need to extract more from the specimen. Once I have, I will continue to log all my changes.
— Ben documenting his recent video journal.
