History Recap / YoungIndianaJonesAndTheMasksOfEvil

* HalloweenEpisode: The original version of the Transylvania episode came across as this as it was bookended by Old Indy telling the story to some kids at Halloween, and scaring them at the end with the help of some fake fangs.

* OurVampiresAreDifferent: General Targo is somehow able to control lightning, control people via possession (albeit briefly) and make people spontaneously combust, in addition to which he appears to display psychic powers of some sort (for example, he knows Indy's real name without having been introduced to him). Unlike other vampires, he sports facial hair (a moustache and pointed goatee, not unlike UsefulNotes/VladTheImpaler, who he believes himself to be) and wears colourful (if rather old-fashioned) clothes. His fangs are in the middle of his upper set of teeth, not on the sides. His undead followers are unaffected by sunlight. He can survive a knife to the back and falling from a great height; the only way to kill him is by a stake through the heart at a crossroads, following which his body bursts into flames.

* BlatantLies: After successfully proposing to Molly, Indy promises to always be truthful to her. Even though she thinks he is a Swedish journalist called Nils.
* CallBack: This is not the first time [[Recap/YoungIndianaJonesAdventuresInTheSecretService Indy has been an intermediary for a peace deal that would take an ally of Germany out of the war]]. Also, Indy admits to Molly that their conversation about whether they will feel the same about each other after the war reminds him of [[Recap/YoungIndianaJonesLovesSweetSong a similar conversation he had with Vicky]]. And, of course, he Once again, Indy [[Recap/YoungIndianaJonesAndTheTalesOfInnocence goes to Venice]] between missions.

* CallForward: This won't be the last time [[Film/IndianaJonesAndTheLastCrusade Indiana Jones goes to Venice]]. It's also not the last time he [[Film/IndianaJonesAndTheTempleOfDoom gets chained up and forced to drink a potion intended to brainwash him]].

* AmbiguousSituation: Maria's nationality. She is working for American intelligence and is engaged to a Frenchman, but we never learn where she's from. Her surname (Straussler) is German, although that could mean anything or nothing, and she has evidently spent enough time in the Transylvania area to have picked up enough vampire lore to know how to deal with Targo. For the record, the actress who plays her is Danish.

* WeHardlyKnewYe: Colonel Waters is presented as an adventurous [[TheSpymaster Spymaster]] who can speak multiple languages — in short, a potential mentor figure for Indy who, has Waters points out, is still just 19 years old. Indy for his part has heard of him ("''the'' Colonel Waters?") and is delighted to have the opportunity to go on a mission with him. Yet once they get into the castle, Waters, unafraid to lead from the front, is the first of the group to die.

* VillainBall: Once Targo has Indy and Maria chained up, he makes them drink some sort of sedative/brainwashing potion and quickly unchains both of them afterwards. It does not occur to him to check that they have actually swallowed it; as it happens, neither of them did so, which is how they are able to escape and (eventually) kill him.
