Warehouse 13: Fractures Review!


     Wow, wow, wow! This episode of Warehouse 13 really shined there at the end didn't it?. Right in the middle I was a little bored but boy did I perk up during that action scene! Clever little twists weren't they? Well, I expected some things but there were a few moments here and there which threw me for a loop! Also, I do believe I'm becoming linked to the Warehouse myself! Some creepy creepiness in a certain artifact that was shown! lol! Read on and I'll explain! :D

     Artie seems to be preparing himself for a date with Doctor Bionic! Gooo Artie! A little relaxation from the fear of being killed by Claudia and becoming exposed will do him some good! In comes Claudia with some major mocking and teasing of our little Artie Bear. It is Jinks, Claudia, and Artie this time They sure are used to the Artie jokes and sooo fast. Barely hung in there! You all rock! Pete and Myka come in and talk with Artie about his jacket and his date and now it's becoming so sweet I feel like they're spreading the Artie jam all over their toast. Eww...but I still like it! So Artie leaves for his date and one might think we were in for an Artie-lite episode but nope. This is an Artie-heavy season and we should know better!

     Meanwhile, in Rapid City, South Dakota a priest tells a girl who is waiting for a gift that an old dressing mirror was just delivered. The girl walks into the storage area and uncovers an artifact from the show's past, Lewis Carroll's Looking Glass! Hmmm. This mirror was in the Dark Vault right? Most of the other artifacts that have gone missing so far were in the main parts of the Warehouse. How is Brother Adrian now stealing artifacts from the Dark Vault?! Does he have an artifact in his possession  where he can enter and leave the Warehouse at whim? Hmmm  (POSSIBLE SPOILER AHEAD). Here's one for ya? Is Brother Adrian even doing this or is he even around at all? Has anyone else been around when Artie talks with Brother Adrian? We've never seen Adrian actually take an artifact from the Warehouse. At least not yet. Also, from what Myka says later in this episode about the Warehouse can make you crazy, maybe there is more going on here than what we've seen.  Could it be possible that Artie himself is stealing his own artifacts and IMAGINING he's talking with Adrian? Just a theory or speculation. Anyways, the girl clicks a camera that says "click me" on it and suddenly Alice is in the mirror and pulls the girl in too. Switcheroo Time. Now the girl is Alice and she proceeds to kiss and kick the crap out of the poor priest. Alice is on the prowl.

     Pete and Myka visit Alice possessed girl in the hospital (she was in a car crash because of Alice). Now she's tied to the bed and screaming. The duo enter the hospital room and "Alice" appears to know them. She calls them both by their names. She flirts with Pete and says a bunch of nonsense so Myka thinks they should check out the storage room  instead of talking with her. They discover the mirror there and now they know they have some serious biz to deal with! Alice is in her own little Wonderland having a grand ole time...AGAIN! .



  Artie has met up with Doctor Bionic and they chat for awhile and over at the Warehouse the gang find out that Lewis Carroll's mirror is missing from the Dark Vault! Uh oh! Claudia is wondering why Jinks is staying away from the action cases which we know why of course.  They clue in Leena and the trio visit the Dark Vault. More plot progressing moments occur here when Claudia finds that the  empty space where the mirror was isn't quite empty. She finds a black diamond. Jinks recognizes it as one of many others left behind from Artie's stolen artifacts. This is big news for Claudia who seems quite surprised and Jinks seems surprised that Artie didn't tell her about it. Of course he didn't Jinks but you wouldn't know that! Now, I must say something about this next quick scene. Earlier today I was thinking about the show and I thought wouldn't it be awesome if somehow there was an artifact from The Wizard of Oz out in the world? Instantly I thought of the tornado but that was the weather pipe episode so naturally the next idem I thought of was you guessed it the ruby red slippers! Also, I was talking to a friend at work about The Wizard of Oz. She has a picture up on her wall. She is a big fan of the movie. Then what idem should Jinks pass by just before they leave the Dark Vault but those ruby red slippers! Either the warehouse is connecting with us all, people just seem to think alike at times just like these writers, or Alice in Wonderland just makes you automatically think of The Wizard of Oz! lol! Oh, by the way. Here's a little Wizard of Ox trivia. The slippers are red in the film but they're silver in the books so those red slippers must be from the set of The Wizard of Oz and since Judy Garland wore them whatever the artifact does more than likely is connected with her. Maybe you see the witch all the time if you wear them or you continue singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow for eternity. They were in the Dark Vault so maybe it has something to do with Judy Garland's later years where she had personal troubles with self-image, drugs, and suicide. Creepy. We better move on!

    Pete and Myka continue to track down Alice while letting the warehouse gang know that the mirror is broken and they must find another way to trap her. Alice finds a way to jump bodies using a shard of the broken mirror. This girl is now on a mission to find Artie! Someone (Adrian or Artie) told her to go after him for revenge of taking the astrolabe. Claudia, Leena, and Jinks look into other artifacts from Alice in Wonderland and discover the smoking worm's hookah was based on a real one that sucks out people's souls and traps them inside. Now they have a containment artifact. Only thing is where is Alice? Pete calls Artie who is on a nice dinner date with his doc and none too pleased. He tells Artie that Alice is after someone with a french name. Can't remember the actual name. We discover that this is the name of the restaurant Artie and Bionic Woman are at. Not only that but their waitress is Alice herself with a knife behind her back! Artie to the rescue. He grabs Alice and pushes her away. Then grabs Bionic Woman. presses the fire alarm and out they go. Pete and Myka catch up and the chase is on. More leaping bodies until Artie decides enough is enough and becomes bait. Claudia and Jinks meet up with the rest of the gang at a hotel so now the hookah is ready. A few more body jumping and now Alice is in the Bionic Woman! Oh no! Alice threatens Artie and his girlfriend for a few seconds then here comes Claudia to the rescue with the hookah. It doesn't go as planned though. Alice tricks them, breaks the hookah and suddenly she is inside Claudia! Oh no! Anyone but Claudia is what Artie is thinking at that moment as Claudia takes the shard and runs toward Artie ready to stab him just like in his dream! Jinks jumps in between them and the shard stabs him in the shoulder which makes Claudia scream! Poor Claudia! Jinks grabs the shard, sucks Alice back in, and then  Pete and Myka bag her! Alice is down!

     Later, back at the warehouse, a bandaged Jinks and Claudia talk about their odd situation that Leena found out about earlier. She saw their auras switch when Claudia was trying to reach the hookah. Now everyone knows. So that secret's shot! In the Dark Vault Artie checks to make sure the astrolabe is still where he hid it. It is. Then he proceeds to scream out to Brother Adrian. He seems to continue to say the same thing over and over again. Has the Warehouse drove Artie nuts like Myka says it can do? Seems to be one of Leena's worries because unbeknownst to Artie who leaves Leena was in the Dark Vault too and now knows something is up. It's getting better and better every week people! The End...for now.

Next week's episode looks good. Who will this stranger be and what will she bring to the warehouse? :0

A cool video to go out on! :)

  1. This was a fantastic episode of Warehouse 13. Lewis Carroll’s mirror was probably one of my favorite artifacts, just because of its creep factor, so it’s nice to have it make a reappearance. I always like when TV shows remember previous episodes and things they used in them. I didn’t get a chance to watch the episode live because I was working late at Dish. However, my Hopper did record this episode and all of them so far in the season, so I was able to watch it later. I plan on re-watching all of this season’s episodes after it is done, but I will still have room to record the rest of my shows too. That way, I won’t be completely Warehouse 13 free until next season! I can’t wait for this season to fulfill the stories it has started!
