Knut disguised as Timmy.

At Cloud Tower, Griffin angrily scolds the Trix for breaking into Alfea after getting a letter from Faragonda. However, feeling the Trix's negative energy, Griffin gives them one more chance as opposed to taking disciplinary action. This time, ruining the blossoming alliance between the Red Fountain specialists and Alfea fairies.

The helmet

"Timmy" gives Bloom the helmet.

Musa spends her time alone at Alfea as she remembers her mother while Bloom and Stella go to Magix for the festival of the Rose. After Bloom and Riven have an argument, the Trix disguise Knut as Timmy, who gives Bloom a helmet as a peace-offering to Riven.

Riven receives the helmet

What Bloom does not know is that Timmy went home for the day and the helmet is more of a hypno-gadget. And so, without that knowledge she gives it to Riven as an apology and Riven accepts. After that she returns to the group and Stella asked where she had been and Bloom tells her. It is then that Stella explains to Bloom that Timmy is nowhere near Magix.

Darcy saves Riven

Riven awakens after Darcy heals him.

After Bloom finds out the truth she tries to stop Riven, but Darcy interrupts and deactivates the helmet, causing Riven to lose control and he crashes, Darcy appears and heals him. Bloom then tries to get Darcy away from Riven and explains that it was the Trix who did this, but Riven does not believe her thinking that she deactivated the helmet so Brandon could win, even though he won by default.

Riven leaves

Riven angrily leaves and Darcy follows.

Bloom explains that the Trix send an imposter of Timmy to give her the helmet, but Riven denies it and explains that Timmy will not be back before this evening, telling Bloom to come up with a better excuse. He then blames his loss on Bloom, and is mad at his fellow Specialists for believing Bloom over him. But despite this unfortunate event, the bond between the Winx and Specialists continues to grow.

Differences Between Adaptations[]

    • Griselda was the only teacher left at Alfea though she is unseen.
    • Wizgiz never makes a reference to turning into a basilisk to scare his mother. Instead he just tells Stella, Musa and Bloom that he has a mother as well.
    • Riven was not under the control of the Trix. He went with them on his own free will.
  • In the 4Kids version:
    • Bloom states that the reason she is not heading back to Gardenia is because she cannot read the "magical".
    • All the teachers, including Griselda and Wizgiz cleared out.

Mistakes[]

  • As Griffin is telling the Trix of the alliance between the fairies and specialists, and that she wants them to break it she is missing her gloves.
  • Icy is in her witch form when she smiles, learning that Griffin is allowing the Trix to use any means necessary to sabotage the relationship between the Specialists and fairies.
  • When fake Timmy is explaining to Bloom about the gift for Riven, it zooms out and when Icy is seen, he is already wearing the helmet but when it zoom back in, he still has to figure out how to open the box containing the helmet.
  • Just before Bloom was giving the helmet to Riven, he is about to put on another helmet. The first helmet was white and magenta. When Bloom was about to give Riven the second helmet, Riven's other helmet changes color, matching the second one.
  • When Bloom told Brandon about Riven losing control of his bike, her gloves were missing.
  • When Darcy is waking up Riven, her helmet is off. But when Riven wakes up, she still has to take it off.

Quotes[]

This guy's got personality and muscles. I like him!

Darcy, talking about Riven

I'm in the lead! This helmet's amazing, I'm one with the bike!

Riven, about the helmet

What you should be doing - relaxing and enjoying themselves.

Sky, to Riven

No buts, who do you think you are? And just so you know I choose who I go out with, and I wouldn't go out with you if you were the last guy on Earth. You're just a ridiculous, arrogant, pathetic windbag!

Bloom, to Riven
