ARES & LIN MANUEL MIRANDA HERMES!! Percy Jackson and the Olympians Full Series Reaction Watch Along: / thereelrejects
Greg Alba & Tara Erickson react to Percy Jackson and the Olympians Episodes 5 & 6, continuing Disney+’s faithful adaptation of Rick Riordan’s The Lightning Thief. As Percy, Annabeth, and Grover race to stop a divine war, these episodes crank the stakes way up — bringing in major Olympian players and some of the season’s most memorable set pieces. In Episode 5 (“A God Buys Us Cheeseburgers”), Percy (Walker Scobell – The Adam Project, Secret Headquarters) reunites with Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries – Beast, Empire) and Grover (Aryan Simhadri – Cheaper by the Dozen, Spin) on the road to Los Angeles — only to be pulled into Ares’ brutal side-quest at Waterland. We get the Tunnel of Love trap, the nerve-shredding Hephaestus throne sequence, and Percy’s growing realization that the gods’ games are deadlier than any monster. These episodes feature huge guest-star gods, including Adam Copeland (Vikings, WWE Hall of Fame) as the intimidating Ares, and Timothy Omundson (Psych, Galavant) as Hephaestus, whose heartbreaking mythology adds real emotional weight to the quest. Episode 6 (“We Take a Zebra to Vegas”) swings the trio into Las Vegas’ Lotus Hotel & Casino, where time warps, temptation hits hard, and the deadline to prevent war slips away. The episode introduces Lin-Manuel Miranda (Hamilton, Encanto) as Hermes, bringing charm and mystery as Percy tries to get answers about the bolt and Luke’s involvement — all while the Lotus tries to swallow them whole. Tara & Greg REACT to the best moments including the Waterland Tunnel of Love / shield trap, Percy nearly sacrificing himself on Hephaestus’ throne, Ares’ threats and divine manipulation, the trio arriving in Vegas and getting lost in the Lotus’ time-dilation spell, Hermes’ reveal and the ticking clock toward the Underworld, & MORE!!
