Girl Meets Pluto

Now this episode was interesting because it placed Riley as as a secondary character. The show was basically split into two shows. "Girl Meets World" and "Boy Meets World", there is one plot and they are merged together in a beautiful way. I cannot wait to share my thoughts.

                                                ****Spoiler's Ahead*****

Protect the Innocent: We learn about creating history. They learned that history changes all of the time, since there used to be nine planets and now there are only eight. The only problem is that Riley doesn't know this. In order to protect her innocence her friends have kept this secret from her. Maya being her closest friend, finally decides to break the news to her. Riley doesn't accept this, she doesn't believe that they can just erase the status of a planet. She is holding out hope for the planet.

Boy Meets World: Farkle comes up with the idea of creating a time capsule. Corey recalls that they made a time capsule when he was younger. The gears begin turning in his head and he becomes determined to dig up the time capsule. He calls Shawn and the two, along with Topanga, Riley and Maya, go visit the time capsule. We reveal history about Shawn and Angela, and they believe that Shawn will run back to Angela to be with her again. Shawn doesn't seem excited about this, and neither does Shawn. The only one that is really excited is Corey. They go to the site where they buried the time capsule, there Feeney catches them and it's just like old times. Feeney goes over and talks to the girls about Corey, he asks how he is doing as an instructor and father. Maya admits that he is the best teacher ever, she also reveals what Corey thought of Feeney as a teacher. Feeney says "It's been a long time, and you're still together. What else do you need to know?" When the capsule is opened it makes perfect sense, Shawn put Angela in the time capsule, and Topanga put a horrible memory in the time capsule. This is why they don't want to open it, Shawn's feelings returned. Then Topanga revealed Lauren's note. She did this in order to rip it up in front of him many years into the future. Corey on the other hand, buried the jean jacket that was a symbol of his and Topanga's love.

Pappy Joe: We hear the first mention of Pappy Joe in this episode. This is the biggest foreshadow of "Girl Meets Texas". We learn about Mutton Busting, and Bull Riding.

Mother Dearest: Maya's mom feels like she needs to be a good parent. She admires Corey and Topanga, and how they deliver life lessons. She really wants to be apart of the fun, and imparts a strong life lesson about hanging on to your dreams. This is important for Riley more than Lucas because Riley wants Pluto to be a planet. This is even more important for Maya. Maya is the biggest dreamer of them all, she desperately wants a father figure in her life. Her biggest dream, since her birthday, has been for Shawn to be that father figure to her.

Maya: Maya is hit hard by this experience, when Shawn remembers Topanga. She feels like she is saying goodbye to Shawn, one of the best things in her life. Riley has hope for her, and her dreams. She encourages her to dream big dreams. Maya confronts Shawn, and says that she needs him to just be there for her. Then Maya tells her friends to leave as she places something into the time capsule. She places the photo of her mom, her, and Shawn on her birthday. That is her big dream, and it could happen. I am really hoping that they get together, but Shawn is acting crazy, traveling the world and writing. I am hoping that he can realize that he and Maya's mom are meant to be. They do have a warm, and awkward moment at the end of the episode which is really encouraging. It shows that love and relationships are scary. Riley and Lucas had an awkward start, and now Shawn and Maya's mom, who are adults are having an awkward moment. Its awesome!

Next Episode is "Girl Meets Mr. Squirrels"

Tune in November 6th, 2015 for a brand new episode called "Girl Meets The Forgiveness Project"
