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.

99. Episode 90: Wrong Exposure

Episode 90 - Wrong Exposure

Jeremy and Aelita head back to the abandoned house. (hasn't been seen in ages)

And explore to see what may have been left behind.

Aelita: We've checked this place already, countless times Jeremy.

Exactly.

Aelita finds a photo of herself, and her father taken together.

There's a code/equation of some sort in the top right corner of the photo. Jeremy examines it.

Odd tells Jeremy he needs to use his computer.

Jeremy tells him fine but, hurry up.

Odd tries to send a text love message to a girl at school. He contacts Sissy instead.

Odd accidently sends the picture of Aelita & her father together to Sissy.

Odd's a buffoon. He doesn't know anything about computers.

Sissy: Dad, who is this Franz Hopper guy?

Principal: He used to be a teacher at this school.

The code found in the photo was just a way to reboot the super computer Jeremy has.

I'm sure that will come in handy - 5 episodes from now.

Xana takes control of the principal at the school.

The principial stowaways Aelita, knocks her out cold and carries her in his arms.

Xana manages to take control of Aelita's body.

Odd distracts the principal with all he can, while Yumi and Ulrich head to Lyoko.

Jeremy inputs the new code he found out, about from the photo.

It halts Xana's control of Aelita and she's back to normal.

Aelita staggers in but, she runs to the tower.

Aelita deactivates the tower.

Return To The Past Now.

End episode.

Overall Rating - 4.8/10 - After a really good episode prior to this, this was just sour and repetitive to watch unfold. Xana trying to control of Aelita, and our heroes somehow finding a different way of freeing her from Xana's clutches. Done before a lot already a million times. Sigh. It wasn't all that bad but, it could have been so much more and better.
