'Percy Jackson and the Olympians' Season 3 Needs To Include These 5 'Titan's Curse' Scenes
A quest begins at camp
At the beginning of The Titan’s Curse, Percy, Annabeth and Thalia meet Grover, who has found siblings Bianca and Nico Di Angelo. Bianca joins the Hunters of Artemis, while Nico goes to Camp Half-Blood.
The Hunters arrive at camp to form a group that will search for Artemis. Zoë Nightshade selects Bianca for the mission. Percy wants to join so he can search for Annabeth, while the chosen group also includes Zoë, Thalia and Grover.
Percy’s promise to Nico
On the night before the quest, Percy finds Nico listening to Zoë and Bianca. Nico wants to protect his sister on the journey, but he is too young to join.
Nico asks Percy to keep Bianca safe. Percy does not make an absolute pledge, instead telling him, “I’ll do my best. I promise that.” Nico later blames Percy for Bianca’s death, and the loss and perceived betrayal shape his character.
Thalia and Zoë clash
Thalia shows her hostility toward the Hunters from their first appearance, and she and Zoë repeatedly argue. During the journey, Percy gets a chance to speak privately with Thalia aboard a freight train.
Thalia explains that the Hunters once tried to recruit her when she was traveling with Luke and Annabeth. She refused because of Luke, despite Zoë warning that he would disappoint her. Percy says Luke has changed and may one day have to be killed, but Thalia will not accept it.
