Does Augustus find Pan in Percy Jackson and the Olympians?
Grover told the story of how Pan the God of Nature and the Wild disappeared and how his Uncle Ferdinand initially took on the quest to find him. However, seeing as his uncle didn't survive Medusa's fortress, did the satyr he met at the Lotus Casino succeed?
Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series Introduces New Character
Now that the Percy Jackson trio has arrived at Hermes' Lotus Casino in Episode 6, they have one ruling to ensure success: Don't eat the lotus flowers. Or anything at all, while they're in the casino.
For those unaware, eating the lotus flowers could instantly make anyone forget why they're in the casino, which could lead to them staying there for eternity.
While Annabeth goes with Percy to find Hermes, Grover is once more left on his own. On his way, he finds Augustus, an older satyr who he seems to be familiar with.
Considering that the satyrs were likely to be involved as Searchers for Pan, Augustus appeared to be one of them, which led Grover to tell what happened to his Uncle Ferdinand.
When Grover sees that Augustus has been eating something from a paper bag bearing the Lotus Casino's emblem, he assumes that he has forgotten about him and his uncle.
But as it turned out, Augustus does remember who Pan is, as well as Grover and his uncle. Augustus even claimed he had found Pan in the Casino, "waiting for someone" to help him convince the God of Nature and the Wild to return.
Now, the question is, does Augustus really know where to find Pan?

Does Augustus Find Pan in the Series?
Grover was right to be suspicious about how the God of Nature could disappear for centuries, only to be found in a casino. Something wasn't lining up. The short answer is no, Augustus didn't find the actual God of Nature.
However, before he can figure that out and meet up with Percy and Annabeth, he ends up forgetting what he came for.
Augustus, who seemed to be heavily intoxicated with the lotus flowers, then took the opportunity to say he came to the Lotus Casino with Grover.
Eventually, when Percy and Annabeth snatch the keys to Hermes' taxi cab, they chase after Augustus to find where Grover is.
As it turned out, the "Pan" that Augustus "found" wasn't the actual God himself. Percy and Annabeth found their satyr guide playing a virtual game, which could be where the "Pan" Augustus referred to was.
