Winx Club - Episode 502

The Rise of Tritannus is the second episode of the fifth season of Winx Club.

Synopsis
The Winx hold a benefit concert to clean up the oil spill. Meanwhile, some of the toxic waste from the oil spill reaches the prison of Andros. Tritannus absorbs the spill's pollution and transforms into a hideous monster and then he and the Trix escape from prison. Tritannus and the Trix then go to Earth so Tritannus can absorb more pollution and become more powerful. The Winx confront them but are easily defeated, which brings them to the conclusions that Believix powers are too weak underwater.

Trivia

 * Tritannus' new mutation powers are limited. When he uses all the toxic waste, he regains his original triton form.
 * When Tritannus minions were attacking the people on the beach, Roxy did not transform to help out the Winx to fight back.
 * Judging by how the Trix react to magic on Earth and how the Winx react to them, it seems that the Trix has been in prison ever since the end of season 3. Thus, this is probably the first time they see the Winx in Believix.
 * The Trix is heavily outmatched by the Winx in combat. Darcy and Stormy got defeated after the first 3 spells from Musa, Bloom and Stella.
 * Roxy no longer has blond streaks in her hair. It's unknown if that's the new re-design for her or just a mistake during the production.
 * During the fight scene on the beach, you can see a guy that looks and dressed like Riven from Season 1 alongside a girl.
 * A new part in Bloom's Believix transformation sequence was added in this episode before her wings are materialized.
 * During the concert, when they perform their new song, you can see Clarice cheering the Winx in the corner.
 * Sean Schemmel, the 4Kids voice actor for Valtor (Baltor), returns to lend his voice to one of the merman guards.
 * This episode's correct production code is 502.
 * This is the third time the Trix have teamed up with a main villian.

Mistakes

 * Three Alfea fairies, who should not be on Earth - Amaryl, Alice and Krystal - can be seen during a farewell concert.
