Episode 13: Family Portrait

This one starts with Bo showing Tamsin the “weapon” that Hephaestus forged for her … a horseshoe. Tamsin tries to make the best of it, saying Bo could use it like knuckle-dusters, as a back-scratcher, or as a non-returning boomerang. Bo’s not impressed. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 5, Episode 13”

Episode 12: Judgement Fae

This one starts (like many before) with a sex scene; Bo and Lauren are going at it in the shower. But now that Lauren has the ability to mimic the powers whatever Fae she touches, their encounter is more balanced, allowing them to drain each other mutually. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 5, Episode 12”

Episode 11: Sweet Valkyrie High

This one starts with a little romance … very little, since Lauren’s new mimic powers make it difficult for her and Bo to connect. Bo wants to talk about it, but Lauren switches the topic to Hades, Bo’s father. Bo is conflicted, knowing Hades is bad (duh), but also grateful for the help he’s given her lately. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 5, Episode 11”

Episode 10: Like Father, Like Daughter

This one starts with Bo and Dyson staking out Zee’s place, waiting for her to show up so hey can confront her. Lauren calls and asks about Bo reviving her at the end of last episode. To me, it looked obvious that Lauren was sucking the chi from Bo—the implication being that Lauren’s messing around trying to extend her life span has turned her into a succubus.

Episode 9: 44 Minutes to Save the World

At the end of last episode, Bo opened the box that her father sent her as a birthday present. Zee (aka Zeus) freaked out, saying that would allow Hades (Bo’s father) to walk the Earth, but Bo reasoned it might take one kind of evil to fight another. Zee took off when she heard the box open, and Bo was bathed in light from the now open box. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 5, Episode 9”

Episode 8: End of Faes

This one starts with Tamsin moving out. You’ll remember last episode she freaked out when Bo told her she loved her, but wasn’t in love with her. Ah, that old line. Bo is worried about Tamsin (Bo: “Where will you go?”; Tamsin: “Wherever the wind takes me … Motel Six, then wherever the wind takes me.”) and doesn’t want to lose another friend. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 5, Episode 8”

Episode 7: Here Comes the Night

Remember that storm that started at the end of last episode, the one Heratio, Zee, and Iris seemed to be enjoying so much? Well, it hit, and it was apparently pretty intense. Bo and Dyson walk through the devastation, trying to help people who are trapped or hurt. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 5, Episode 7”

Episode 6: Clear Eyes, Fae Hearts

This one starts with what can only be a dream sequence. Lauren is winding a music box (or maybe a jack-in-the-box) which looks exactly like the present Bo got from her father last episode. Lauren has a weird look on her face, but before anything pops out of the box, Bo wakes up … and she’s in bed with Tamsin. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 5, Episode 6”

Episode 5: It’s Your Lucky Fae

This one starts with Bo getting a birthday gift from her father. It’s box with weird symbols on it. Since it’s from the Ruler of Hell, she decides she should probably know a bit more about it before seeing what’s inside, so she calls Cassie, the Oracle we’ve seen in previous episodes. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 5, Episode 5”

Episode 4: When God Opens a Window

This one starts with a sex scene; no, it’s not Bo for once … it’s Tamsin, banging some dude named Tad. Bo walks in and gives her shit because she’s doing this guy in Bo’s bed … oh, and she was supposed to be helping Bo fight some asshole Fae. Continue reading “Lost Girl Reviews: Season 5, Episode 4”
