Overall, I thought it was a decent episode. Was this the one with Hayley in the strange outfit from those BTS photos we'd been seeing? I thought her outfit had the Galaxy Warriors insignia on it, so is there ANOTHER "Hayley in green" episode coming? Speaking of which, wasn't the initial tennis match called for Noon at, like, 9:00 in the morning? How could she have been training "for days for this" in three hours' time?

I did like Abrakadanger, but I didn't like the missed opportunity to allude his staff to Rita's wand. Little tie-ins like that would help to shape an anniversary season, after all.

Levi being blasted to North Carolina and having to drive across the country in a magical flying Zord and it STILL taking so long was a bit of a stretch. Just how slow do Levi's Zords go? They showed up in North Carolina, so they clearly can be summoned to show up anywhere with zero wait-time, so why did it take so long to get back?

Nitpicking little things like that, to me, means that the episode was good. The moral was even run through quite nicely. Preston tried to jump ahead in his magic and failed at it, but shouldn't "turning Hayley invisible by accident" have been the catalyst to take his time and learn magic the right way? It was almost like "Dark Wish" all over again, in that regard. Yes, it was a new spell book, but he WAS warned to take his time, and he chose to ignore the warning.

I didn't even mind Victor's magical arm, and I suspected that something was up when he was blasting the tennis balls across the court. I'm surprised that Victor wasn't a robot for the tennis match, truth be told.

Still, shouldn't we be building up to the finale right about now? There are two episodes left until the end (and the Christmas epilogue), and things seem like they're going to come to a sudden stop VERY quickly.
