SciFi TV Rewatch

We've spent so much time speculating about Bo's origin story that no one saw that the young stranger Mark would turn out to be Dyson's son. Three story lines appear in this episode, each of which has explosive potential. How long will Evony remain human? Are the ritual murders related to Hades? Will Dyson find out that Bo might not make a good big sister after all?

As  Lauren tries to become physically stronger now that she's a target, Bo suffers an unexplained weakness and total loss of her sex drive. She's stated her reluctance at being named the Chosen One, but this episode provides a nice parallel as Japanese fae family comes to blows over who's to ascend as the Exalted One. Some nice interaction between Dyson and Tamsin and Tamsin and Lauren.

While Bo knew her father tended toward the dark side, we were all surprised and somewhat shocked to find out she's the daughter of the god of the Underworld, Hades. Her step-mother Persephone helps Bo escape, but the events that transpire above ground upon her return, prove to be the most heart wrenching of all. 

Before Bo can rescue Kenzi from Valhalla, she must first obtain the second Hel shoe by demonstrating her rock climbing and rapid healing skills. But the episode is really about the choices facing the characters. Does Kenzi want to remain in Valhalla and marry Hale or return to the living and her former life with the gang at the Dal? Does Tamsin reject her Valkyrie sisters or join forces with her Light Fae friends? And what of Bo and her father?

As we eagerly await Season 5, the last for Lost Girl, members of three Lost Girl podcasts join to dissect Season 4 and predict what the series' final season will hold. Dave chats with Stephanie and Annie from Drinks at the Dal, Kevin Bachelder from The Fae Files and Tuning In To Scifi TV, and Jessica from Those Who Wander about if and when Kenzi will return, who Bo will choose to be with, and whether or not a movie would be a good idea.

A mix up with two Jam Pony deliveries nearly gets Normal definistrated, while Max attends Logan's cousin's wedding as his date. Do we detect hints of jealousy from Max when one of Logan's ex-girlfriends hits on him at the wedding?

Logan and Max protect a government witness ready to testify against the mayor and his corrupt administration, but when the witness turns out to be Bruno, things don't turn out quite the way the parties expect. It also turns out that the Manticore kids aren't the only super soldiers in town, and Max and the others have more than Lydecker to worry about.

Logan's fear of intimacy gets in the way of Max's attempt to perhaps take their relationship to the next level, and he uses Eyes Only as his primary means of avoidance. They do bring down a child trafficking ring, but at what cost. In perhaps the episodes biggest WTH moment, we see Normal as a normal guy who just wants to connect with a girl, but it turns out to be a bit more complicated than that.

Lydecker steps up the pressure on Max by offering a $50,000 reward, and it takes Logan and Zach working together to extricate her from his pincers. Shippers certainly receive something to talk about in this episode, but it's the dream sequence that leaves most viewers scratching their heads as they attempt to make sense of what they've just seen. Marvel Phase 3: Read it here.

We learn that Max's seizures aren't the only issues facing the kids from X-5 group at Manticore. Brin, one of the 12 that escaped ten years ago, calls Zach because she's afraid Lydecker's on to her, but her physical problems may be even worse. Like the viewers, Zach's curious about the relationship between Max and Logan. USPS Batman stamps
