Who-referencing flashlights Prismo gave to them. Finn and Jake find it’s easier said than done, as the sleeping geezer spouts demonic night-terrors in his sleep that crumple before the Dr. Luckily, Prismo happens to know an easy one: find a sleeping old man outside amongst the asteroid-debris surrounding Prismo’s house, and return with him. They go back to Prismo’s place to inquire, and learn that it’s a sort of cosmic prison for multi-dimensional convicts, and that the only way inside is to commit a cosmic crime. Jake returns to the Treehouse, where Finn tells him that his father is alive in a place called the Citadel. These events make Prismo’s sacrifice later on all the more meaningful, both to Jake and the symbolism of the act. Every other power was helpless to stop the demon if I remember correctly, Jake used his only wish on a sandwich (not for the first time, too), but a friendship-smitten Prismo stepped in and fudged fate a little bit, on the basis of this bromance betwixt Wishmaster and shapeshifting dog. I just noticed that, I always am! Hee Hee Hee, this feels so good!” Back in the season five premiere “Finn the Human / Jake the Dog,” it was that same idiotic friend-love that managed to undo the Lich when nothing else could. Whilst partying, Jake and Prismo act the hapless young bros, guffawing at how great it is to be in each other’s company, and delivering gems like “Prismo, you make me happy Prismo. It’s an important little tidbit to remember, once further Lich mojo goes down later on. As you’d expect from a Wishmaster, Prismo’s able to deliver the details: the Lich’s existential function is to exterminate life, and since he’s powerless within Prismo’s wish-hut, he simply sits there, a “machine without a purpose” completely oblivious to the partiers taking selfies with him. Peppermint Butler is the first to point out the pink demon in the room, asking Prismo why they aren’t all dead or enslaved at his hands by now. “Wake Up” opens with a party at Prismo’s wish-chamber in the center of the multiverse (yes, we get to say shit like that in Adventure Time without feeling thoroughly stupid), and all of our favorite cosmic weirdos are invited: Death, Peppermint Butler, a surprisingly dorky Cosmic Owl, Glob/Grosh/Grod/Gob, and Party God just to name a few, and sitting in the corner is none other than a comatose Lich. Directors Adam Muto and Nick Jennings managed to shed Finn’s heartbreak arc rather painlessly, to launch a new one laden with feels resulting from a formerly-absent, and altogether disappointing father figure. The double-episode special accomplished everything a season premiere should: it introduced compelling new directions for the show while expanding on the core themes. I’ve never expressed the need to see Finn’s dad, but uh, alright.” It felt too much like a desperate grasp, an unwieldy heave in a different direction with vague hopes that it’ll pay off. The new season’s commercial asked if we were ready to meet Finn’s father, and I found myself saying “.
DARK PRIZMO ADVENTURE TIME SERIES
Finn’s father was introduced completely out of the blue, an uncharacteristic move for a series obsessed with dropping Easter eggs along the way and waiting for the right moment to hatch them. It’s the eponymous time again!Īdventure Time had me worried by the end of season five. On last Monday night’s episode of Adventure Time, the series kicked off its sixth season with the half-hour special “Wake Up / Escape From the Citadel.” Finn’s looking for a father, the Lich is looking for an army, Jake is looking for cheese crackers, and for the sixth season in a row, the series has us looking forward to more.
