  • Goliath & friends are in Egypt. They find the Pack working for a man named the Emir. He is trying to trap Anubis for both he & Xanatos' purposes. Things go wrong when Jackal becomes an Avatar & starts destroying everything. What can be done to stop him?moreless

    An interesting episode. This deals a lot with accepting death and how it works, which is a big message going out to a (mainly) kid audience. My favorite parts of this episode are when the Emir (voiced by the spectacular Tony Shaloub) and Anubis are arguing about how death works. The Emir is so heartbroken at the loss of his son, that he doesn't care about reason or what is right; he'd do anything to get his dead son back. I also find it interesting the Greg Weisman has said that he regrets not trying to kill off Goliath, Angela, Elisa, & Bronx in the episode, because the fact of it is, is that they can't die. Anubis is trapped, and while he's trapped, no one can die, so the Pack could not kill them. It would be interesting to see how that would be pulled off. The end of the episode is sad and touching. The Emir finally sees the error of his ways & understands what Anubis was trying to tell him all along. In the end, the Emir is at rest with his son.moreless

    ADD TRIVIA
    • When Elisa regains her youth along with Goliath and Angela, her red jacket is gone and she is wearing only a black shirt. But when she enters the next scene, her red jacket has reappeared. Edit
    • Trivia: We learn that gargoyles age at one-half the rate that humans do. Edit
    • Anubis claims that no one can die while he's imprisoned, but there are many mythologies with many different Death Gods. Anubis is part of a pantheon that hasn't received major worship in over 10 centuries - does he really still have such power that he alone has control over death and his absence prevents anyone from dying?

    ADD NOTES
    • A year and a half or so after this episode came out, Interplay Productions produced the video game Fallout: A Post-Nuclear Role-Playing Game. Apparently the company was a big fan of Gargoyles and/or this episode - the game featured the voices of Clancy Brown, Keith David, Tony Jay, Tony Shalhoub, Frank Welker, and Cree Summer. All of them have voice credits in this episode. Matt Frewer and Brigitte Bako are the only actors in this episode who don't star in Fallout, which also featured the voices of Gargoyles regulars Jeff Bennett and David Warner. Edit

    • Emir: You took from me my only son, Anubis. Two years ago, in a pointless car accident. Anubis: Death is always pointless. That is the point. Edit
    • Wolf: Well, shave my chest and call me baldy. Edit
    • (Jackal and Hyena activate their bladed weapons) Jackal: Hope you've enjoyed your visit to Egypt, Goliath... Hyena: 'Cause it's about to be cut short! (laughs) Edit
