[Kevyn] Previously on Max & the Midknights...

I give you Kevyn's next masterpiece!

- I haven't written anything! - [people gasp]

We'll just have to wait for the portal to be fixed.

- It's all up to Pete now. - [gulps]

[Kevyn] King Torin was visited by his Fairy Dogmother.

She magically extracted all of King Torin's negative qualities

from his body, and bonded into malevolent spirits.

I believe the man we faced was the Bodkin.

Come on, Midknights, this could be our chance to stop him

once and for all!
