This is what I was wondering about. After he 'thought' he had stolen the real sword, didn' t he use his power to stop time completely after dancing around, but when he found out it was fake he couldn't even slow down the clock in the parking garage today. Or something? <.< I'll have to re-watch last week's for that part.
