She chose to surrender because there was no better option at that time. There's no way she and Lion-O would have been able to handle the three generals on their own, so letting Tygra be offed would have only hurt their situation. Any chance that they could have been taken prisoner, even a very slim chance, was a better option than knowingly letting a teammate be murdered. Did her emotions play a part in that? Yeah, they did, but in the end all three of them survived. Would you really prefer them to have offed Tygra in the episode? Most especially because of Lion-O's stupidity? (aka going into the battle without the initial support of his team).

I haven't put it on a pedestal, and I haven't seen anybody else do so. As for the love triangle, I think it's been handled quite well so far, and as far as I'm concerned, it ended with episode thirteen. From that point on it's been Tygra and Cheetara trying to have a relationship during a war, and Lion-O's jealousy getting in the way of his leadership.

Also, what you see as "many", is really a small percentage of people on here. The reason those on your side of this argument appear to be "many", is cause several of you don't multiquote.

But that’s simply not good enough for me.
Lion-O did misread her signals, as did several "fans". While the flashback was out of the blue, that didn't make it less significant in any way, shape, or form.

That's right! She only held his hand, kissed him, and stood behind him, put her arms around him, and whispered in his ear. She clearly sent "just friends" vibes.

Look, I'm not saying Lion-O didn't make mistakes with his assumptions rather than actually talking to her, but mistakes were made of both sides. There are ways to be supportive that don't involve pressing your boobs against someone.

I knew I said I was done with this thread (or at least stormbringer), but . . . (goddammit)

Notice how that's all Cheetara putting herself out there? What did Lion-O ever do? Nothing. In real life, you're not going to keep putting yourself out there and making the first move and flirting with someone that never returns the affection. You end up feeling put-off. And eventually you realize that the person you're flirting with isn't really serious. And eventually you move on and find someone else.

You're all very good at analyzing Cheetara's actions, but tell me where in the first 13 episodes Lion-O ever flirted with Cheetara or gave her a kiss or a wink or held her hand a little too long.
I'll admit that the flashback and Tygra's confession in episode 13 really did come out of the blue (though even Lion-O noticed that Tygra was flirting with Cheetara way back in the first episode- and even Panthro noticed Tygra drooling once). But AT LEAST Tygra did say something finally. What's really out of the blue is how hurt Lion-O feels, because he never did anything to show that he had an interest in Cheetara. I'm sure he enjoyed being the object of her flirtations, and was upset when he realized that was coming to an end, but other than that- nothing.

So again- where in the first 13 episodes did Lion-O ever flirt with Cheetara?

So you're saying that Cheetarah isn't at fault for sending mixed signals because Lion-O never made a move? That's not how it works. I've said multiple times that Lion-O is guilty too because he never made a move, but that doesn't change any of what Cheetarah did. I've also said that Lion-O shouldn't have told Tygra and Cheetarah he was okay with things if he wasn't, but he was at least trying to be the bigger man in his relationship with Tygra (less so with Cheetarah though). I've also theorized that Lion-O's true interest was in the competition with "winning" her as an extension of his competition with Tygra and it's something he'll admit to after coming out of the Trials (I even compared it to a story arc Will Friedle's character had when he was on "Boy Meets World").
All I've said is that a simple "Sorry I hurt your feelings" from Cheetarah would
go a long way with Lion-O, but if Lion-O liked it he should have put a ring on it.

No idea. I was hoping we'd have one by now, but oh well. There's really no chance of the episode not airing tomorrow.

Put a ring on it.

Lion-o felt betrayed by cheetara not tygra. That is why he didn't say anything.

I think they both like the competition.

I was glad that Lion-o realized that it was Cheetara who "betrayed" him, and not Tygra.

Good post.

I think tygra would've completed the mission.

It was bad that he got tied up with his own whip.

I think that Tygra, Panthro, and Claudus, would have all done the same thing in Lion-o's place.

I think the triangle will go on.

The smirk was from an ego boost and he probably feels that cheetara thinks lion-o is so fragile that he needs constant reassurance from her in everything he does. We may get to see how things play out if things were reversed in the next ep. The reviews I read prior the new ep was a bit different from what I saw in ep 14 so far

Since it'll be up to Lion-o to save all of them when he returns, he'll be able to have the smirk next.

I don"t see any evidence in what we've seen in cheetars's character so far that she would've rejected lion-o if he made a move and if you think its a mess now imagine how bad it would be if that went down

This is how I feel and I still believe lion-o still has strong feelings for her. He thought she choose him when she kissed him like pathera did. That is not going to change over night.

If a women did all that stuff to me, I would've have more than a crush for her.

Cheetara knows she led the poor guy on. She could barely face him when he brought up how he "misread" her signals.

All she said was I thought you were ok with tygra and me.

Even with the triangle stuff, the end was really bad.

You know when tygra and lion-o find the tiger tribe, I wonder if they get everything out in the open.

Cheetara said she sends mixed signals. You disagree. And that's alright. Not even Lion-O believed it. But for the sake of argument, if we believe that Cheetara was intentionally flirting, and Lion-O never flirted back, then what's she supposed to think? He's not interested? Maybe this isn't the guy she wants? What's his deal? How long is she supposed to put herself out there, before she gives up waiting for him to make a move?
And that's only assuming she was flirting intentionally. If you guys have never received mixed signals, then you're very lucky. I've gotten mixed signals that were more than a simple kiss on the cheek, so to me it's completely understandable and believable. I've had a couple girls that wanted to model their new bikini or lingerie for me, only to find out that they thought it'd be okay since I was such a good "friend."
But at least you acknowledge that it's not 100% Cheetara's fault, and that Lion-O needs to share some of the blame too. So that's cool.

I've also said that Lion-O shouldn't have told Tygra and Cheetarah he was okay with things if he wasn't, but he was at least trying to be the bigger man in his relationship with Tygra (less so with Cheetarah though). I've also theorized that Lion-O's true interest was in the competition with "winning" her as an extension of his competition with Tygra and it's something he'll admit to after coming out of the Trials (I even compared it to a story arc Will Friedle's character had when he was on "Boy Meets World").
All I've said is that a simple "Sorry I hurt your feelings" from Cheetarah would
go a long way with Lion-O, but if Lion-O liked it he should have put a ring on it.
I can agree with this, and I do hope that after his trials, he gets over his little crush. Hope he can actually wish them well and mean it.

Who's Panthera? Is this someone from the original show?

Legacy. She said" I have faith in you Leo" and she kissed him on the cheek. Lion-o said he was dead, but at least he had a girlfriend.

I dont' remember her saying she was sending mix singals.

There's a lot of "misreading" going on with Cheetara.

I would have told Mako that Panthera was Leo's girlfriend in the Book, but I decided to create a ceasefire in which we don't comment on each others post anymore.

I enjoyed the episode and looking forward to the next. Im a big Cheetara fan and will stick by her no matter what, think i do prefer the old Cheetara more though, because like most have said she is quite mixed in this series with her feelings and how shes being portrayed etc.
Anyone we'll just have to see what happens!

Also I wonder if when Tygra gets the reigns of the team next ep it won't loosen some of the blinders off her a bit.

My bet is Lion O will eventually get past her, and probably around the time Cheetara/Tygra self destructs and she realizes she made a mistake in her choice, thus leading her to have to chase after Lion O instead of vice versa.

maybe even give her a taste of her own medicine, realize she should have chosen Lion O, and goes after him right as he and Pumyra kiss for the first time (in an identical kiss as her and Tygra's first, likely her having the same shocked expression Lion O wore, what can I say I love karmic moments in shows like this).

I like this scenario.

Mako seems to be bashing you guys on TCL now. Said he thinks you want to see Lion-o kill Cheetara.

I have seen them "joke" about such a situation, but honestly, I find it impossible to tell when they're joking, and when they're being serious.

Which is of course an exaggeration. Oh well, as long as the terms of the "ceasefire" are honored, he can say what he wants on other sites.
