Season 3 Episode 3: "[The Librarians] and the Reunion of Evil".
Or maybe you're suffering from a mysterious magical memory loss?
FYI: TNT is running a Season Three marathon on Friday the 23rd, staring at 8 pm.

She's quirky?
When we met her in the pilot, she was working as a janitor.
Which if you have a union gig, is good money, real good money, but the perception that blue collar jobs don't pay persists a little, although I think she was probably supposed to be some sort of scab/day labourer, even though working in a hospital that close to drugs and sick people requires an exemplary resume and detailed skillset.
So, yeah poor.
Thrift shop second hand clothing?
Although, the Library's wardrobe, would have been comptrolled by Charlene, which might mean that all the (new) "free" clothes in the library are some what dated because Charlene is older, it could alternatively be that she could not justify the budget to keep the (I'm assuming magically endless) wardrobe en vouge.

I dunno... It kinda seems contradictory that Flynn was more motivated to confront his interpersonal failings through an ordeal he experienced alone than through a direct conversation with his teammates. I suppose it could be considered in character because he's all about the magical quests and trials and ordeals, so it was kind of like that was speaking his language while the intervention wasn't, but it's still kind of paradoxical.
She can dress however she damn well likes. She's got a short life expectancy, so she should be free to do what she enjoys and not be oppressed by arbitrary notions of fashion.
Note that this episode was written by Noah Wylie and directed by Jonathan Frakes.
Loved Flynn trying to calm the plane with flowery medieval Spanish . . . ..
Speaking of THE LIBRARIANS, I actually got a Christmas card from MacMillan Audio the other day, reminding me that they're doing my LIBRARIANS books on audio. That was neat.

She's a fictional character. I was asking for an in universe reason. A piece of backstory I might have missed. Comments by the actors or producers.
Why does it need an explanation? She's not a fashion plate, she's a shy math geek. Librarians are eccentrics as a matter of course.
As far as I know, her quirky fashion sense is just a character trait that has never had an in-universe explanation. It also contrasts with Baird's more practical, everyday attire.
Just for fun, here's how I described her in the first book: "a petite redhead with a penchant for short skirts, knee socks, and frilly collars . . . ."

Watch some Sherlock, Christopher.
Clothing either tells stories about the wearer, or lies about the wearer, depending on how safe the wearer is and what their goals are.

Just curious. Sometimes these things have reasons either from the actor, the costume designer or the writers. . Plus I don't think the actress is pulling off the look well.
Never said anything about her having to be a fashion plate.
Cassandra is in her mid 30s and dresses like she's going to a sweet 16 party.
Maybe she is trying to create a safe space?
Of course, the older she gets the more likely her peanut is going to explode, so the younger she seems to even herself, the further away (psychologically) that aneurysm seems, therefore the more life she has, and has to look forward to.
Cassie's public expression is, or was about denial?
One also gets the impression that, because of her condition, Cassandra missed out on a lot of ordinary rite-of-passage stuff. (We know she regrets missing the whole college experience because of doctors and tests and the like.) So maybe some sort of delayed adolescence?

Arrested development?
Although if her massive intellect showed up early enough, Cassandra might have been an adult since she was 6 years old. Her current effervescence may be from surviving a lot of depressing stuff, and realizing that it's never really as bad as it seems.

This was a cool episode. Kind of an homage to the psychedelic 70s, when character milestones were acted out in alternate dimensions or made literal in some other way (Englehart's Doctor Strange and Captain Marvel, Starlin's Warlock, etc., etc.). The intervention at the beginning was funny, too-- Jones has really gotten in the swing of the Library to stand there and recite a "list of hurts"-- as was the fake argument at the airport that turned real. I wonder if this means that Flynn will be around for all the remaining episodes.
Aside from Flynn's personal revelations, the upshot of the Triangle was that a life must be sacrificed to use the power of the artifact. The implication was that the life would be Flynn's, but that was never explicitly stated-- I wonder if that's a red herring.
I think it was a big mistake to send the government guy back as a chicken. This was the perfect opportunity to make allies of them-- or at least assuage their concerns. I have a feeling that will come back to bite them in the ass.

It's her superhero uniform.
Is the aneurysm still a plotline? They haven't mentioned it in a long time, so I was thinking they might have quietly dropped it.
End of last season, Super Cassandra used magic to remove her own peanut.
So why didn't Super Cassandra remove regular Cassandra's Peanut while the opportunity was presenting?
