Preston Ward Condra Watches Code Lyoko

by Preston Ward Condra

I binge watch through the entire series of Code Lyoko. Aside from seeing 1-2 episodes, I'm going in completely blind to this series. It's a show, I would never see anyone say anything good or bad about at all. I'm confused to as to whether or not, it's an anime or a cartoon. Cartoon Network never even aired the finale back in 2007. A smorgasbord of a project. Let's do this.

44. Episode 41: Ultimatum

Episode 41 - Ultimatum

Xana takes control of the principal and kidnaps Odd and Yumi.

Xana sends a text message to Jeremy, Aelita and Ulrich - that both Odd and Yumi will be "liquidated" by 2 PM.

...Okay.

Jeremy: Sissy! Listen to me, your father is under control-

Aelita: Possessed.

Sissy: Yeah, right. Like in hospital of horrors and he's under control of some mysterious entity, right?

Jeremy: That would be correct.

Formal, smart response in the dialogue. Nice.

Jeremy, Aelita and Sissy rush to the hideout.

Ulrich uses a bomb - Jeremy made as a experiment (because he's a total nerd like that - the bomb was shown for 5 seconds early on in the episode)

Odd and Yumi escape from the confines of their captive and rush to the hideout as well.

Sissy sends Aelita to Lyoko.

Odd and Yumi follow afterwards.

First time Sissy actually visits the hideout and put in the hot seat for once.

Ulrich faces off with the principal, outside the hideout.

Sissy saves Ulrich, and knocks out the principal, err I mean her father out with a lead pipe.

Aelita deactivates the tower.

Sissy kisses Ulrich for a job well done.

Return To The Past Now.

End episode.

Overall Rating - 6.7/10 - Bonus points for keeping the viewer on his/her toes and moving the story along from start to finish. Granted, this episode was literally nothing but, total filler once again but the set-up to everything was good and the action was fast paced.
