I saw a reddit discussion where the writers never confirmed if it was platonic or romantic at all, but rather up to the audience to see it how they would individually. Plus, its not uncommon for this age difference to matter for couples years down the road. I can agree they are not a couple, but its def not for the age difference reason lol

Just want to say that Caitlyn and Jace are not romantically involved AT ALL. Caitlyn's parents sponsored Jace's research and she was intrigued, which is why they became friends. Their relationship is more sibling-like. Plus it would be highly inappropriate given their age difference. Jace is 31 now, while Caitlyn is in her early 20s, which would've made them 24 and 14-17(ish) in the first act.

You can use small amounts of Shimmer medicinally like Vi that took it mixed with a healing potion but whenever you're using large amounts to hulk out, it can mess your body up like Huck. It's actually a pretty good metaphor for drugs in real life. Opioids are commonly used as painkillers but there's also a huge problem with dependency and abuse.

I don't know if anyone already said this but the timeskip between Act 1 and Act 2 is about 6-7 years according to one of the writers of the show. Powder/Jinx was about 11-12 years old in Act 1 and is now 17-19 while Vi was in the 14 to 17 range and is now in her early 20s.

It's time for some details and fun facts :
- When Jayce was talking to Heimerdinger about the speech, he mentions that he could never take his place which is exactly what happened as Jayce replaced Heimerdinger on the council.
- We see a good amount of crows in scenes with Jinx. In folklore, the crow symbolizes transformation/change.
- In Jinx's hideout, we can see dolls of Mylo and Claggor as well as his goggles strapped onto it (https://shorturl.at/rRB7B). The Mylo figure has its feet on the table as he always had during Act 1 (https://shorturl.at/oZzfO).
- Jinx listens to her own theme song « Get Jinxed » in her hideout. The song was released to promote and introduce players to the character Jinx.
- Pim has the same voice actor as Silco (https://shorturl.at/sYk9b).
- When Caitlyn saved Vi from Sevika, it was the first time she shot her rifle since Grayson asked her what she was shooting for.
- The bloodstained coin that Marcus contemplates in Act 2 is the same one that Silco tossed him in Act 1 after Grayson died (good catch on the first watch Jordan ! Impressive, « my boy »). Also, a play with "blood money".
- In League of Legends, "Pow-Pow" is the name of Jinx's minigun. So she named her gun after her childhood nickname.
- In the scene where the opening theme "Enemy" can be heard, we can also see its band Imagine Dragons performing it (https://shorturl.at/QaaLI).
- Sky Young, Viktor's assistant, already showed interest in Viktor during their childhood (https://shorturl.at/leVTO).

You can also see though the parallels how the closer Jayce gets to Mel, the further are Jace and Viktor are drifting apart. The idea of those with gifted minds persists in Jayce and Viktor most - the more isolated Viktor gets, the bigger and greater (for good or for worse) are his scientific progressions, while the more Jayce gets into politics and relationships, the further away he is from the lab and actually science. Amazing parallels, amazing show. Just wanted to vent about it, sorry haha

The mutation was in fact Rio, that lizard thing. The doctor created mutation Rio as an experiment, but it was dying. He only cared for an experiment itself, and not for Rio. Even if extending its life means it would suffer, and be in pain. When Rio was connected to those machine with pipes, it looked miserable, in pain, barely alive. It would be merciful to let it die, and end suffering. That's why when Victor saw it he asked "You did this?". This show is a true masterpiece. There are no bad episodes at all! By the end of it, it will be your new favorite show of all time!)

Deckard got his neck broken, and got tossed off the bridge by Vander.. right before he jumped out of the exploding building to save VI.. So I don't think it's him 😬

That moment when the camera was spinning around Jinx and it showed Mylo and Clagger standing with her gave me chills. Another call back this episode besides the ones you guys mentioned was when Kaitlyn told Vi she had a good heart and we hear Vanders voice when he said that to Vi. I absolutely am loving this show and Jinx may be in my top 3 all time favorite animated characters already

and i’m glad you guys caught the strange dynamic between mel and jayce!! i think there’s attraction between them, but there’s no real love at least in my opinion. they use each other. there’s a strange triangle between jayce, mel and viktor where if you watch mel and viktor’s scenes are paralleled. she doesn’t seem to care for viktor at all despite him being half of hextech, she’s focused on jayce the more “marketable” one because he’s charismatic and from piltover, he’s easy to push into politics. when you watch you can see viktor doesn’t really like her either from his facial expressions, he’s aggravated by jayce’s distraction.
maybe i’m reading too much into it, but there’s so many instances. and this is not to hate on my girl mel she’s beautiful and i love her but she and jayce don’t work well together as a couple

This is the first time we actually see Silco losing his composure and only because of the possibility of losing Jinx. What a fascinating character and a great antagonist to this story!
