Lost Girl Recap S2E3: Scream a Little Dream
An elderly
lady, freaks a little, before knocking her melon pretty good. The bellman
notices that all of the old people seem to be sleepwalking. This may just be
what Bo needs to get herself out of her funk.
A whole lot
of sugar later, the bellman, Frank spills the beans. He’s fae, and he’s suppose
to be caring for the folks in his building, but the people inside are suffering
from some brain mush. The Ash can’t be bothered with these little problems, and
so Frank has come to Bo to save the day. She agrees to strap on her cape and
come to the rescue. Kenzi tells her that if they ever made some money, they
could actually hire a cleaning lady, but Bo is all selfless. Or mostly
selfless, and she calls Dr. Lauren to come make a housecall, as Kenzi makes
herself scarce.
Kenzi pays
Trick a little visit, and vents all about her lack of clean house issue. A
eavesdropping Brownie overhears her, and he sounds like the answer to all her
prayers. She asks for the lowdown, and Trick makes him sound pretty harmless.
Kenzi happily takes him home.
Dr. Lauren
and Bo play doctor, and so far there’s nothing conclusive. Bo questions
Lauren’s position, but there’s no reason to break out the champagne yet.
Bo has no
news, only exhaustion, and she’s a little startled by her new housemate, the
Brownie, Mumphert! Mumphert gets to doing the housework, and Bo has a late
night visitor. As far as late night visitors go, at least this one has the
courtesy to shower before reeking mayhem. But the only mayhem he’s here to reek
is on her body. Dyson looking all insanely hot invites her into the steamy
shower, and Bo goes. It’s all sexy time until he scratches her, and rips her heart out. Bo is having one crazy
dream, and her cries bring Kenzi a running. Something is feeding on her, and
when Kenzi tries to cleave her in two, it disappears.
Downstairs
the house is immaculate, Mumphert is not only a cleaning god, he makes a mean
pot of joe, the only downside is he ate all the honey berry crunch cereal. Bo
goes to investigate her mystery lady, which leads her straight to Trick, the
fount of knowledge. He tells her it’s a mare, not one that goes all neigh, but
rather a night-mare, a type of dark fae that feeds on bad dreams. Mares aren’t
usually so toxic, and Trick warns her away as he does a little research.
Bo heads
over to Dr Lauren for a little diagnostic. Bo and the Mare have established a
connection, a two way street, which is unheard of. So Bo, is far more awesome
than was first thought, and of course more powerful.
Mumphert
turns out to be even more awesome, landing Kenzi some limited edition couture.
He really is the answer to her prayers. He reminds her that they’re out of
cereal, and she gets a little short with him when he reminds her to grab some
cereal. Come on girl, go get the man some cereal, but of course with that eye
roll, she’s not going to heed Trick’s warning, and not take the Brownie
forgranted. I would kill for a Brownie.
Dr. Lauren
looks for some nasty pills, made from odd ingredients. Bo wants a little
bedtime story, but its really never the right time. The new Ash comes in in all
his jackass glory. Dr. Lauren has been hiding things yet again as she falls to
her knees. Bo takes offense to Lauren being called property, but when the Dr.
asks her to stand down, there’s nothing more that she can do. The Ash having
made his point leaves.
Kenzi tries
to keep Bo awake, but the girl is grumpy! Rather than guzzling more coffee,
Trick suggests getting a Baku, which eats bad dreams. Unfortunately that means
going to the new Ash to request an audience. In the Ash’s waiting room she has
a little nightmare, and the Ash awakens her. Bo fumbles a bit in her delivery,
asking to speak to Lauren. The Ash denies her request, moves straight into the
first date chitchat. Bo reveals that she took on Frank’s problem, but the Ash
has never heard of Frank, and Bo has been duped.
Kenzi shakes
her groove thing, and is less than pleased with Mumphert’s current performance
finding clothes in her pot, and everything looking less that spotless. His campaign
of mass annoyance is taking his toll on her, and he’s being just a little
childish, but she still hasn’t gotten the man any cereal!
Bo pays
Frank a little visit, and she’s less than shiny. He deals with her easily,
blowing a little sand in her face, and carrying his prize away. In Trick’s bar all
her friends are happy to make plans without lil miss buzz kill, Bo, and poor
girl is stuck in her chair. What a sucky dream, but it could be worse. The mare
returns, and gets a little handsy, and Bo doesn’t even try to stop her. She’s
forgotten who she is, as everything goes all dark and crumbly, even herself.
Frank the Sandman is there when she awakens, and though he feigns innocence, it
doesn’t stop Bo breaking his chair, or him a little.
Kenzi
returns with a giant bag of loot, and comes home to find him in her clothes. He
felt abandoned and unwanted, when all he wanted was a little gratitude, and
Kenzi shows him just how grateful she is with a whole duffle of Honey Berry
Crunch. Once his feathers are unruffled, she has a request in mind, a Baku, not
just the pelt.
Bo feeds on
Frank and gets down to the skinny. He’s squatting in light fae territory, and
he’s doing it all for Connie. She needed a fae to eat, and she can’t eat a
sandman who never sleeps. Being so close to Frank puts Bo back into a slumber,
and a very pregnant Connie berates Franks loose lips. The couples bickering
awakens Bo, and she gets away before they can make a meal of her. Stumbling
down the hallway, Bo struggles to stay awake making it to the elevator. She
calls to her anchor, Kenzi for help, and Mumphert delivers just in time. Bo
decides to turn the tables on the Mare, and go to her home in the basement.
She sees an
older version of herself, crying over how beautiful she is. Spilling the fates
of all of her friends, of Kenzi’s death, losing Dyson’s and Lauren’s love. She
struggles with herself, her elderly self desiring human touch, but its all an
illusion. Kenzi and company come to the rescue, and the Baku wraps her in a
hug, making the old version of herself fall away. Dyson materializes, and she’s
prickly about his presence. He tells her he wants to be with her, but she’s
confused. He offers her heart’s desire if she stays with him, but although the Baku
has eaten the scary dream he can’t bring her out. She’s trapped. Kenzi begs her
to hear her, even though the Baku tells her that she can’t. Bo kisses Dyson,
and stabs him through, telling him goodbye. She returns to Kenzi, and thanks
the Baku, and sets him loose on the rest of the apartment building. She may be
free, but she’s still linked. They break in on the Mare about to deliver.
Bo goes to
the Ash and fills him in on everything. He’s not exactly grateful. He offers
her a position, which she nicely declines.
