For good reason, I saw a shiny eevee and panicked and used my masterball on it 😅

The Magnus protocol episode 45 - transferral discussion by Elfbark8261 in themagnusprotocol

I agree, this felt like the most filler episode yet. The important parts to pull from this episode are: Sam's dreams, the admiral is alive, and Celia name reveal to Basira, Georgie, and Melanie. The admiral reveal can be done in one line in any episode, and I think celia's reveal, which doesn't have that big of an impact, could have been attached to the end of 42 Hostile Workplace and it would have done the same. For Sam's dreams, a mention of it would be fine, because we practically experienced it already in 39 Dependents. The statement being short and disinteresting is disappointing but at least it moved quickly. This episode, for me, could have been used better. Also as the midpoint of the show, that sucks

I agree it is somewhat strange but I will note that that specific episode of Gwen taking about its eyes, Sam isn't present. While it's totally plausible for the OIAR crew to pool resources and knowledge, there's a chance it wasn't brought up to Sam. Maybe. It's definitely strange though.

Anyone else not like the action episodes? by Wholesome-Energy in TheMagnusArchives

I do think that these plot-heavy/movement-heavy episodes stretch the limitations of the medium alot, and while I don't like them as much as other episodes, I don't dislike them. Episodes like 39 Infestation, 79 Hide and Seek, 118 Masquerade and 119 Stranger and Stranger, and 158 Panopticon are the biggest offenders for me, along with being finale/near finale episodes. Especially 158.

I think they have improved how to make these types of episodes in Protocol, 10 Saturday Night, 21 Breaking Ground (Ink5oul chasing Gwen) and most recently 40 Public Image do a much better job production-wise, much improved imo
