Overview:
Adora and her friends organize a relief mission to the kingdom of Plumeria, which is currently under siege. The Shadow Weaver is still determined that Catra bring Adora back.
Trivia (courtesy of the SPOP fan wiki):
- There is a crude drawing of She-Ra riding Swift Wind stuck to the lockers at the Fright Zone. Apparently, it belongs to Catra, since nobody else in the Horde has seen either She-Ra or Swift Wind. Catra crumples up the drawing, preventing anyone from seeing it.
- It is mentioned that the legendary She-Ra tamed the beast of Beast Island. This was a recurring location in the original series where the Horde had a prison. Also mentioned is the Mantisaur, which was Hordak's mount in the original toy line. It appeared only once in the Filmation series, in the She-Ra: Princess of Power episode "A Talent for Trouble."
- We get to see in a mural at Bright Moon the original members of the first princess alliance, consisting of Peekablue, Sweet Bee, the parents of Mermista, Perfuma, Angella, Micah, Netossa, Spinnerella, Castaspella and the Star Sisters.
- The name of this episode is a reference to an episode of the original show named “Flowers for Hordak”.
- This is the first episode featuring Perfuma.
- Of the series, this episode has the lowest rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
