Recap / Code Lyoko S 3 E 11

Go To

After jealousy erupts from Odd not having super powers anymore ("Future Flash Sense" got wiped when the super computer got rebooted, and Jérémie never recoded it), Jérémie cheers him up by giving him Teleportation powers....which are bugged and make two other clones of him. The gang try to put him back together the following morning, but they're all let loose on the school, and XANA attacks with petrification smoke that turns the students into statues.

This episode contains examples of:

  • Are You Pondering What I'm Pondering?: Odd and his other clones, constantly. It's actually used by Odd Prime to locate the other Odd in town.
  • Continuity Nod: Odd Prime and Odd #2 use the same trick down of abseiling down the science building that Ulrich used when the school was infested by XANA!Rats.
  • Foreshadowing: Ulrich sarcastically says to Aelita "Well, you got any wings?" in response in needing to get over the petrification smoke. This is a super power Aelita eventually gets in the following season.
  • Indy Escape: Ulrich is chased by a Megatank on a narrow path. Unfortunately, it crushes and devirtualizes him before he activates his Supersprint.
  • Look Behind You: A subversion. Hervé tells this to Jim when the XANA-controlled petrifying fog is rising behind him and Jim does not believe him, even telling Hervé that he wasn't born yesterday. This leads to both being petrified.
  • Me's a Crowd: A bug in Odd's new teleportation ability creates two clones of him.
  • Opportunistic Bastard: XANA isn't the one that causes the clone issue, that's on Jeremie. But he does make petrification smoke, which is used as a distraction and an attempt to slow the team down getting to Lyoko, and he also takes control of Ulrich's body because he is nothing if not opportunistic.
  • Other Me Annoys Me: The three Odds don't really get along that well as they fight over who gets to go to lunch, and who has to go to P.E. class. They also ruin a joke by inadvertently repeating it three times.
  • Shout-Out:
    • To Tarzan, including the two Odds using the scream while jumping.
    • Jims' discus pose is identical to the Discobolus statue.
  • Status Quo Is God: At the end of the episode, Jérémie states that he was able to fix the bug in the teleportation power and can reprogram it for Odd, but Odd declines, stating that he doesn't need the power.
  • Taken for Granite: XANA's attack in this episode consists in unleashing a fog that petrifies anyone it touches.
  • Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Two of the three Odds are forced to work as a team to get the third Odd (that has been petrified by XANA's fog) to the factory so the three of them can be unified.
  • Teleporter Accident: Jérémie tries to give Odd a teleportation power in Lyoko, but a bug in the program causes Odd to create to a clone each time he teleports, leading to three Odds emerging from the scanners.
