Grover connects with Percy through their dreams. He explains that this telepathic “empathy link” is extremely rare and only works if the two people share a deep, genuine friendship. It makes Percy smile, realizing how much Grover cares.
Book vs TV Series
In the book, Grover realizes his telepathic link with Percy must have worked because they share emotions. The show takes the concept of their connected emotions and adds a sentimental layer. By explicitly stating the link is reserved for “best friends,” the show solidifies their emotional bond in a really sweet, undeniable way.
