Recap / Sofia The First S 3 E 11 Sofia In Elvenmoor

Go To

While accompanying her father on a job to build a new road, Sofia finds a silver tree in the Whispering Woods, which leads to the realm of Elvenmoor. It's a beautiful place, but the royal road crew wants to cut down in the tree, which will close the door to Elvenmoor forever—and Sofia won't be able to get back home. There are only two problems: the door back to the forest moves, and Elfonso and Clover keep getting distracted by everything happening in this realm on their way to the door.

Tropes

  • An Aesop: There are times when it's important to be serious and stay focused.
  • Chekhov's Gun: Sofia uses her Together Feather to find the door when she and Clover are unable to find it in the Illusion Grove.
  • Shout-Out: The episode has a few of these.
    • The title of the episode and Sofia falling through a hole are references to Alice in Wonderland.
    • Following the green path to the Elvenmoor door is this to the song "Follow the Yellow Brick Road" in The Wizard of Oz
  • Skewed Priorities: On the way to the door, Clover and Elfonso keep wasting time playing when something catches their eyes when the former and Sofia should be going back to the forest.
