The story notably explores the back-story of Teela and examines her parentage. It is revealed in this story that Teela is in fact the daughter of The Sorceress although this information is later removed from her, for her own protection until she is able to fulfil her destiny.
The episode also examines the back-story of Queen Marlena who is revealed to have been an astronaut who crashed on
Eternia and fell in love with the King.Moral
Teela: "In today's story, I went in search of my mother. I found her, but I also found something else; that the man who had cared for me since I was a baby, who loved me as he would his own daughter, was just as much my father as any parent could be. And so whether they are someone we were born to or whether they chose us to adopt, it doesn't matter. The ones who protect us, and teach us, and love us; they are the ones we call mother and father. And they deserve the same kind of love from us. Until next time."
