Missy Watches: Episode 3 of Guardian Rewatch

[miss_ingno]

Long time no see! :') Trying to catch up on the rewatch, so without further ado, some notes on episode 3:


Zhang Ruonan

• talks to Shen Wei about Li Qian
• ZYL's impression: low self-esteem or recently traumatized
• Shen Wei: honest and kind
• job: Teaching Assistant
• episode is set 2 weeks post-trauma
• gifted Wang Yike gloves

Wang Yike

• takes precsription meds without having had a physical exam
• refused to have her fingerprints taken in class
• tried to gift ZRN flowers after she encouraged Wang Yike but accidentally killed them, which ZRN saw
• calls ZRN her "benefactor" (Weilan parallel?)
• suspects Shen Wei of Bad Intentions
• Zhao Yunlan's theory: if you can absorb it, you can return it

Professor Shen

confirmed popular with the students by Zhang Ruonan!

SID

• Zhu Hong calls out ZYL on not taking proper care of himself + forces him to take his meds
• ZYL: "I am the gread Lord of the Guardian Order"
• the library is just for decoration (!?)
• Lin Jing has been slacking on digitalizing the books
• "we have info on this" GCC thinks he saw it earlier in the library re: ZRN's life energy being drained
• Zhu Hong is a Secretary not a Field Agent

Zhao Yunlan's List of 3 Things that cannot be Trusted

1. bellyband on best-selling books (ads)
2. text about lottery wins (scams)
3. coincidences in cases

Hallows

Lin Jing has everyone touch the Longevity Dial, including Lao Li; it only reacts to ZYL

Technology

• Zhang Ruonan's clunky camera
• "Lin Jing's communicator": Zhu Hong wears the bell charm bracelet

Remarkable Quotes

• Many tragedies were destined from the beginning - Shen Wei
• "A Stolen Life is hard to maintain, but a promise can remain constant for thousands of years" - Shen Wei via GCC's diary | "This is called 'Guarding'" - Zhao Yunlan via GCC's diary

Zhu Jiu

• believes feelings = weakness (a reflection on Ye Zun?)
• notices Shen Wei neutralized Wang Yike's power, which is suspicious for an ordinary professor
• lures Shen Wei to find Zhang Danni while SW's out searching for the Hallows, traps him there

Shen Wei's powers

stabilizes Zhang Ruonan before she can die

Not a lot of worldbuilding in this episode, but our first Weilan parallel! Loving a monster indeed~
