Recap / Dragons The Nine Realms S 7 E 4 In The Cards

Go To

In an attempt to ease the tensions between the riders, Jun performs a reading of tarot cards. However, the cards predict them going separate ways. Later, when Chief Baker tasks them with investigating a couple of half-eaten eels, the investigation is plagued by misstep after misstep. This eventually causes the rising tensions to boil over, leaving the riders indecisive about the next course of action just as the responsible dragons, a pair of Typhoomerangs in the middle of their mating dance, are crashing down towards Rakke Town. It's only thanks to the dragons that the town is saved. In the aftermath, the group agrees they should spend some time apart, and the Dragon Club disbands.


Tropes in this episode include:

  • Bittersweet Ending: The town is saved, but after rising tensions throughout the episode, the team breaks up at the end of the episode.
  • Changing Yourself for Love: Eugene joking about Jun breaking up with Tom leads to him agreeing with Jun more and more. This backfires, however, as Jun fell in love with his real self, not this new Tom.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Eugene joking about Jun breaking up with Tom leads to him starting to have doubts about their future together. As a result, he agrees with Jun more to keep their relationship stable, even when her ideas are not the best option.
  • Self-Fulfilling Prophecy: At the beginning of the episode, Jun predicts the riders splitting up. Her subsequent attempts to keep them together only end up creating more tension between them.
  • Wham Episode: The Dragon Club disbands.
