I am a full grown man, and I never cry, but the scene with Elliot and Q was so damn well done that I actually shed a tear out of its sheer beauty and portrayal, although the scene was so short. Regardless, this episode remains of of my favorites in the entire series, and I bet many of you will agree with me.
I have never done a review on a series before, but this episode deserves some love. The scene with Q and Eliot´s adventure was so beautiful and well written, that I had to write something down to show some love for the writing and the acting that was done to make this episode happen. I hope the series keeps on making these kinds of episodes. So, if you like beautiful and emotional scenes with a bit of a plot twist, then this is an episode for you.
I stopped watching Magicians after season 2 but now Im very glad that I had return to this show. This was the most beautiful episode of the series. Story of Quentin and Eliot was so epic!
I just wish to see more episodes so briliant like this.
I have never rated or reviewed an episode before but this one deserves all the praises. I love it, it was beautiful, witty and well made. I will buy this season when it comes out.
Every episode has been increasing since the start of season 3, i think this season they have really found their muse and managed to creatively pulled it off. While its only half way there i can tell this season is going to be the best!
I can't describe how much I love this episode. I'm glad to see that it's the season's highest rated episode. The Magicians should write more episodes like this. Ever since that threesome with Margo, Eliot and Q on Season 1, I just had a feeling that is not going to be the last, and I can't believe, for once in my life, I was right! It's been fun to watch these crazy misfits go on their separate adventures, which the usual pairs and partners in crime but and seeing Eliot and Q pair up for an adventure of their own warmed my heart in so many ways. I love how this episode explores love in all forms which is not that common in fantasy shows. Seeing Eliot and Q live out their lives with a family of their own in a separate timeline deserves a lot of praise and recognition; it was also unbelievably insane! (Who lives out their whole life arranging mosaic? That has to drive you nuts!). Hopefully, this is not the last we see of Eliot and Q together.

- TriviaWhen Margot (Summer Bishil) is talking with Eliza (Esmé Bianco) she mentions that there is "some kind of timey-wimey magic going on here". This is a reference to phrase the tenth Doctor (David Tennant), on the BBC show Doctor Who (2005), used to describe time in the 10th episode of the 3rd series Blink (2007), "People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually - from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint- its more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly... timey-wimey... stuff".
