Percy Jackson Finds Out that LUKE IS THE TRAITOR | Episode 8

[hubertdenise]

Much better Luke then films overly villainous version, but I do miss the book Luke in parts, like how the only time he gets actually angry is when Percy brings up Thalia, like it’s a switch, which would be genuinely terrifying to see for a 12 year old, this 19 year old master swordsman and a chill dude who you looked up to suddenly being so angry, like when Banner shouts to see Romanoff’s reaction.

Anyone else notice that Luke’s eye flashes gold

This version of the scene was much more impactful than the book in my opinion. You can see that Luke doesn’t want to kill Percy, and we all know the pain he has gone through. And Percy apologizing for slicing Luke (loyalty is his fatal flaw), and Annabeth finding out was pretty sad.
I find it much better than just the scorpion pit.

Bruh. That hurt. He wanted Percy to go with him. 😭

Luke stole the bolt and helm for Kronos during the winter solstice trip. He was halfway across New Jersey when they discovered his theft since Zeus had sent all the gods to look for the items. Ares caught Luke who dueled Ares who disarmed him, took the items, and threatened to take them back to Olympus and burn Luke alive. However Luke told Ares through the words of Kronos that if the items weren't returned there would be a war between the gods. Ares was fascinated by this and so he let Luke go and kept the items. Luke returned to Olympus before the other demigods discovered his absence. Luke was punished by Kronos with nightmares and Luke promised to never fail him again. When Percy arrived Luke realized that he could use Percy to get the items to Kronos. Luke befriended Percy and welcomed him into the camp. During Capture the Flag Luke summoned a hellhound to attack Percy in order to make Chiron think that the camp wasn't safe for Percy. Before Percy left on his quest with Annabeth and Grover Luke gave him the flying shoes which were actually cursed and they were also supposed to drag Percy and the backpack which had the bolt into Tartarus where Kronos would get it. Percy gave them to Grover which wasn't part of Luke's plan. Percy was supposed to die because if he did Poseidon and Zeus would get angry at Hades whose helm of darkness was also missing. Luke then tried to kill Percy with a pit scorpion but the latter was saved by Chiron. Luke joined Kronos who used Luke's anger to corrupt him. Luke's fatal flaw was his excessive anger/wrath and he let it blind him to the point where was willing to betray his friends and join Kronos and the

Everyone talks about how Luke is on Percy's side and saw him as a little brother but if so why would he send him to his imminent death in Tartarus 😭

Ok this scene is awesome! It fits so well to the story and to this context, I love that they had luke want to reclute Percy instead of...you know....

Objectively its so much better than the scorpion thing, It humanized Luke so much and leaves room for an amazing character development

HOWEVER, after seeing the trio figure everything out the whole season, like, every single moster, and the hotel, who krusty was, EVERYTHING, at least let them be naive about this!, let luke have his own reveal!. I hate that it was percy who figured it out WHY THE HELL DO THEY HAVE TO KNOW EVERYTHING. It pissed me off so much the entire season 😢

(And I did miss the scorpion low key tho😂, I was just curious about how Walker and Charlie would have pulled that off) but still this was better. JUST LET THEM BE MORE NAIVE NEXT TIME, THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE 12, LET THEM BE 12 THANK YOU❤

Okay maybe we should change up that title Luke was never intended to betray or backstab them he always wanted to be understood because of his dad and his big argument and he got tricked so it would not be fair to call him traitor call him Luke not traitor Luke, kid, leader of Hermes, or just even a friend who needs to be understood

You brought your sword out so that means you do want to fight, 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡⚔️

[josephzielinski]

Clarice or Percy steals no such Zeus's lightning. It was Luke all along, he's a fraud to do such a thing to steal his lightning and frame innocent Percy, secretly.

[TheKoroks]

So, he can open portals into camp using backbiter?


How is that going to work going forward, because in BotL the entire point is the Labyrinth is the way the invasion force is supposed to enter camp. If he can just open a portal, it defeats the entire purpose.

Stop saying we Luke there is no weed not anymore Perseus and Luke are there more we are not friends anymore no more 😡😡😡😡😡😡
