Lost Girl S05E02 Recap: Like Hell Pt 2
Poor Kenzi was brought back from
Valhalla, as Bo had bargained for, but she should have been more
specific. The beautiful bride is stuck in her own grave. She tries to
calm herself, but can't as she screams for help. Help is coming.
Lauren and Dyson have come to the rescue. Lauren used a shovel, but
Dyson went all doggy style to rescue her. Kenzi, in the clinic tells
them that she traded herself for her.
Bo arrives on the magically button lit
floor. And she's welcomed by the fountain by a small bouquet, but
there doesn't appear to be anyone else there. She was never any good
at mazes, but she finds herself in one now, and Daddy is the prize.
She goes down the center passageway and into the labyrinth.
Lauren gives Kenzi a once over. Dyson
has gone back to the gates to make sure that they stay open for Bo to
return out of them. Kenzi has had enough of the little physical, but
Lauren insists. She complains about the icyness of Lauren's hands.
Lauren notes that Kenzi is shaking, but she insists that she just
needs a drink, that which Lauren can supply. She thanks her again,
and for not removing her liver for science. Lauren jokes that science
couldn't take the hang over. Lauren tells her that Bo never stopped
looking for the helshoes to bring Kenzi back, and Kenzi was sure she
would, just as she's sure Bo will come back, that its like she's with
them right now. And maybe she is as a cold wind goes through the
room, and a message of Help is written on a fogged glass.
Stacey comes topside to close the gates
of Valhalla, but Dyson warns her against it. She tells him that
unless he's some sort of weird looking Valkyrie she's never heard of,
then he shouldn't even be up there seeing the gate anyways. Dyson
won't let the gate close even if he needs to rip her apart, but Stacy
remains unruffled, threatening to call her sisters for backup. Dyson
is more than willing to take on a few pretty girls, even if they are
badass Valkyries, but truthfully she's more than happy to just be out
of the nest. She lets slip that she's out soul hunting, because of
Bo's deal, and she needs to replace Kenzi's soul. Bo has thrown
Valhalla out of whack. Stacey tells him that she needs a soul close
to Bo's heart and asks who he loves. He claims not to know her well,
but he knows who does, to Stacey's relief. She has work to do, even
if Dyson is insanely distracting. He offers to help, and Stacey is
more than happy to accept.
Bo hears crying, and follows the sound
to Kenzi. She had a deal that Kenzi would be safe, and she's not
happy thinking that she isn't. She hears Dyson saying that they can
finally move on with their lives. It's all faint whispers, trying to
mess with Bo's head. Bo is wounded, she's snacked on by something.
The wart covered goblin took a bite out of her thigh, and continues
to taunt her. A friendly face comes to help. She tells her to only
hear what she needs to, that her true voice is way out. Bo kicks the
goblin, and defeats the maze. She's in Tartarus, and her bird girl
guide is willing to help her out of Tartarus, but Bo needs to see her
father, and the surroundings look familiar.
Trick is happy to see Kenzi back. He
asks her if she's sure that it was Bo. Kenzi is pretty sure it was,
and more so that she won't let things go all Baba Yaga. Trick gives
her a fae artifact, telling her to be careful, fae spirits can be
very vengeful ones.
The girl tends to Bo, but she can't
handle her ministrations. Bo wants to fast track the healing, and
asks the girl to help. With a simple kiss Bo starts the healing
process, taking the kiss and making it deeper.
Lauren's gotten cleaned up, but between
the vodka and the shoveling, she needs to throw in the towel,
succumbing to the needs for rest. Bo lays her bird girl against a
bed, and hits the sheets with her. Asleep Lauren gets more than a
little feel up as Bo gets frisky with the girl in Tartarus. Kenzi
rushes in, waking Lauren with the spirit board that Trick brought in
hand. They need to be sure the spirit is Bo, before they contact it,
knowing that a spirit would say anything to cross over. After her
little wet dream, and ghostly fondle, she's sure its Bo. Kenzi steps
away from the bed, just glad that she wasn't getting freaky with a
pillow, Bobo's vag-mission was received loud and clear.
Bo thanks the girl for some sexual
healing, and she tells Bo that everyone is always starving in
Tartarus. Bo remembers that fact from school, and then she remembers
another part of the myth, Persephone. Bo just had sex with her step
mother. Bo searches for her father, and Persephone tries to stop her.
She wants Bo to get out while she can, he's found a way to null her
deal by taking the Artemis Flame that was her way out, and hasn't
been to the surface in a long time. Her father is angry with her. Bo
is upset with him too, he has no reason to be angry with her, he
tried to get her to end the world, and when she didn't he forced her
friend to go through a portal and die to close it and save the world.
She's upset that he's sent his child bride to seduce her, but
Persephone claims that he didn't send her. Bo finds the most likely
door for her father to be behind forges ahead, giving no mind that
he's a God in his underworld.
Dyson takes Stacey to the Dal, and she
doesn't understand why everyone is so happy. The Unamense are no
more, Evany is no longer the Morrigan and now the Dal has become the
ground for democracy. Everyone wants to fall into the footsteps of
the unaligned succubus, and choose peace. Trick introduces Stacey to
Dyson. Everyone is very curious to Bo's whereabouts. Stacey ponders
if Trick's soul would satisfy Freya. Dyson plays the noble Trick off
as a liar, a drunkard, and a trickster. Lauren calls, but Dyson
silences it. Stacey asks who her soul is to be, and he describes
himself, her lover, her confidant, the mad she fed off of when she
needed it most, and the one who loved Bo enough to give his love of
her to the Norn to save her. He tells her that he is the last of his
kind, which intrigues Stacey. Dyson tells her this great love is Vex,
the Mesmer. Stacey leans over and kisses Dyson, making sure he's not
the one that loves Bo. Tamsin arrives, and she's not happy to see
that Stacey is there. She warns him off. Stacey is Tamsin's
replacement, and Tamsin admits that she betrayed Bo, her mission was
to return Bo to her father. She was activated like some sleeper cell
by Bo's father. The little distraction gives Stacey a chance to make
a run for it with Dyson's phone. Tamsin sends Dyson back to the
gates, so the Valkyries can't close it, and she'll take care of
Stacey.
The room isn't what Bo expected, but
she remembers it. It's a nursery, her nursery when she was a baby. Bo
realizes that she was born in hell. There's a cage in the room, that
once housed Aiofe. Persephone still remembers her wails. She was only
allowed to hold Bo when she fed her. Hades use to gloat how powerful
Bo would be. There were once lots of people, midwives and guards, but
they fled when Hades began to lose his powers. Bo peels back layers
of wallpaper in the cage, and finds a sketch of Aiofe and Bo. Aiofe
loved Bo, but she realized that only one of them would be able to
escape, and she set Bo free. Persephone's mother loved her too, but
she was unable to save her from Hades. Bo warns her that if this is
another trick, then she'll pluck out all her feathers. Persephone
urges Bo to get out while she can, but Bo is the one that Hades has
been waiting for, and she is about to end his wait. Persephone takes
Bo to the elevator. Bo is sorry about earlier, unsure that she could
have been as brave her. Persephone heard of Bo's bravery, and figured
if she could be as brave as she's been, then she could too. The doors
close, and Bo looks to choose another button. The white hand glows on
her chest, and then the Pent House button illuminates blue. Bo
chooses it, and heads up. Upstairs, the creepy mouth breathing
starts. She's wanted to meet her father for a long time. She taunts
him to come out to face her, to stop hiding as he has all these
years. He's not her family, nothing, and she refuses to walk into the
dark. She tells him to keep hiding, that she doesn't want to meet
him. She doesn't want to jeopardize the people she loves. If he wants
to meet her, he can do so on her terms, because her true family would
never abandon her. Bo comes to a lone candle. She will never be what
he wants her to be, but she will take everything that he has, and if
he doesn't like it, she says to come and get her. She runs to the
elevator. As the doors begin to close, a hand grabs her by the neck.
She refuses to go out like that though, and her eyes flare blue. Her
mother taught her to fight and she plans on it. The fights against
the hand, and gets free. The doors close.
Kenzi prepares for her ritual, asking
Lauren if she's going to eat the blood sausage willingly, or if she's
going to have to force feed her. It looks like Lauren chooses force
feeding. Kenzi has some experience with the whole spirit summoning
thing, and doesn't want to wait for Trick. Kenzi takes Lauren's cold
clammy hands, and it begins. Immediately the reactions start, and it
may not be Bo.
Bo takes Persephone by the hand. She
asks what Bo did, she did exactly what he didn't want her to do. Bo
is ready to take Persephone out of there, but she can't go. She's
found the center of the labyrinth, and she has to wait until her
latest 6,000 years are up. Bo isn't accepting that answer. She wins
not because of luck, but because she has a great support system, and
she's unwilling to leave anyone behind. Persephone claims that she
cannot go further,. Bo worries what Hades will do to Persephone when
she leaves, but Persephone tells her that he's lost interest in her
long ago. and tells Bo to leave, and to let her family know that she
is safe. Bo promises to light the candle for her, and Persephone
tells her that a little light is all that is needed sometimes to keep
evil at bay.
Kenzi and Lauren hide behind the couch.
Kenzi is sure that they awoke something evil. She asks if they
disturbed a grave when they dug her up, but Dyson did most of the
digging. They may have angered a spirit or something. Lauren should
have known, she had a mirror shard in her pocket. Seriously, how did
she not notice a shard of that size in her pocket? The thing even
kissed her neck. Lauren thinks to play tough guy and go after spirit,
but it pushes back, and Lauren calls for a retreat.
Dyson wolfs out as he holds open the
gates with all his strength. When he swore fealty he really meant it.
Bo appears behind him, impressed and thankful that he waited for her.
He takes her home.
Lauren and Kenzi, can't hide forever,
and so Lauren gets up the guts to make a run for it, and grab the
boarrd. Lauren grabs it, and Kenzi torches it. Problem solved, well
one down, a new blonde one emerges in the form of Stacey. She needs
to feast on a soul still, she didn't buy for a moment that Vex was
Bo's love. Lucky for her, Dyson's text messages clearly show Bo's big
yen for Lauren. Lauren is willing to sacrifice herself for Kenzi, but
Kenzi is still Kenzi, and she's unwilling to let that happen,
offering up herself. Stacey is in no hurry to get back to Valhalla,
but she's taking Lauren. Bo and Freya made a deal, which makes Kenzi
off limits. Stacey uses a little Valkyrie mind magic on Kenzi and
knocks her out, then goes for Lauren. She can't take Lauren's sou.l
if she's still living, but she plans to remedy that issue. Tamsin
plans to send Stacey home without a soul, so she'll know what it
feels like to be on the naughty list for once. Stacey points out that
the books will still be unbalanced, but so are Tamsin's boobs, and
she deals with it. Stacey doesn't understand why Tamsin would choose
mortals over her sisters, especially not in her last life. The fellow
Valkyries are kinda mean girls, Tamsin points out. Stacey tells her
that they call her a doormat, and she should stand up for herself.
Tamsin tells her that she shouldn't talk, her haircut is very dated
and her roots are showing. Stacey leaves in a fit, hair is against
every Valkyrie rule of engagement. Kenzi is relieved to see her, but
caution, after running into the Shining Tamsin last time, but its
Tamsin Tamsin.
Trick toasts Kenzi, and Bo, and all the
warriors that brought them home, as they sit around the table. Dyson
and Tamsin call a truce, he had no choice but to improvise, even if
it was all over Stacey's mouth. Trick welcomes home Bo. He's been
around for a very long time, and still the afterlife is a mystery. Bo
doesn't enlighten him on it though, telling him the afterlife was
very personal. Dyson has something for Kenzi from Hale. He left her
something in his will. Kenzi admits that she felt close to him for a
second, and that he was happy. Lauren tells the group that there is
an excellent selection of vintage Cabernet and offers to go retrieve
some, Bo heads down with her. Bo can't believe that Lauren had ghost
sex. Bo asks about Kenzi, not health wise, but otherwise. She's been
through a lot with her almost wedding, and coming back from the dead.
She wonders about the trapped spirit, the one that was summoned by
the Ouija board, if they can burn a ghost. Bo turns just in time to
catch the spirit, and knock it out. They didn't destroy it, they gave
it corporal form. Lauren asks how Bo knew, and Kenzi points out its
never easy and over with the fae.
At home, Bo is ready to welcome Kenzi
back with all her favorites including “Tremors” but Kenzi isn't
ready for that. She can't continue to be the lost girl in the fae
world wanting to be fae. Bo tells her that that has never mattered to
her, but it matters to Kenzi. It's mattered to Kenzi for a long time,
but she's finally ready to do something about it. She's learned so
much from Bo and everyone else. She lost the love of her life, and
she died, which is why she needs to try something new, something
human, something for her. For the first time in forever, she's okay
with that. Am I the only one not okay with this? Kenzi has been the
best part of the show from the start, and getting her back so soon,
only to lose her again is heart wrenching. But, she says needs to go.
Kenzi hugs Bo, and its another tearful goodbye. Hale left her some
Santiago land on the coast of Spain. She's never been out of the
country, and now is the perfect time. Her bags are already packed and
she's ready to leave on a jet plane. Bo tells her that they're
sisters, and in each other's life for good. Bo loves Kenzi, sometimes
its the only thing that she's completely sure of.
Bo looks over the collection of wigs
left behind. She pulls a board from the window, and another, letting
the light in. A woman gets onto the elevator while on the phone,
telling the caller about an evil copier and a bad day. A candle
appears in the woman's hand, but disappears as Bo lights Persephone's
in the window. The lit candle appears back in the woman's hands and
then the screaming begins. Bo got the candle too easily from
Tartarus, and now it looks like she's started something big.
