Previously on Shadowhunters...
It's time to meet my sire.
You can meet him when it's time.
Simon? Hello?
"If anything will keep me safe, it's this picture.
All my love, George."
I'm looking for something that could make a person fall out of love.
You must add one last ingredient:
a tiny sliver of your soul.
To true love.
Now, nothing will come between us.
What do we think?
Matte or glossy?
Glossy it is.
Nothing wrong with a little sparkle.
It is a special occasion.
- You sure you wanna do this? - We have no choice.
The mark on your head activates when someone attacks you?
As far as we know.
So, then it's only logical.
If you evade the attack, you'd be fine.
I'm not sure logic applies here.
Hey.
- You're pretty quick. - I am a vampire.
You're not bad yourself, for a surfer werewolf.
Some of the world's best athletes are surfers.
Not in New Jersey.
I was born on the Gold Coast, remember?
Is that in Australia? You haven't mentioned it.
Actually, my girlfriend grew up near the Jersey Shore.
- Yeah? - Yeah, Maia'll be in town tomorrow.
Let's get lunch. She's dying to meet you.
We could see a movie. We could--
Are you okay?
Yeah. All right, we're done.
You think? Come on.
So, lunch. There's this really great diner that she likes.
That sounds awesome, but I can't.
I've gotta catch a train to Long Island.
I owe the Praetor a progress report.
That's too bad. I'll bring you back a doggie bag.
- Hey, Simon. - Ah! Hey, you, uh...
I don't think we've met.
Are you one of Kyle's friends?
Simon, it's me.
Oh, my God.
Heidi.
- I thought you were dead. - Yeah. Not anymore.
Thanks to you, sire.
But how is that even possible?
We got a bit carried away that night.
That douche Quinn might have killed me, but I died with your blood on my lips.
- How did you come back? - Raphael dug me up,
but you're the one that gave me life, Simon.
And now we're bonded. Forever.
Huh...
Okay, look, Heidi, I hope you understand.
I can barely manage my own life right now.
So I'm nowhere near capable of being anyone's sire.
So, if Raphael dug you up, maybe you should talk to him.
Are you kidding me?
You're acting like you have nothing to do with this.
That's not what I said--
Your blood is in my veins!
You don't get to turn your back on me, like I'm some stranger.
Uh...
I know this is...
It's lot to process.
But...
we belong together, Simon.
You'll see.
Mmm.
This is delicious.
I haven't been this enamored of French toast since...
Well, since Julia Child made me petit déjeuner.
Good.
Maybe you should save the spatula I used for your little box.
Alexander...
if my mementos are still an issue for you, perhaps we should talk about it.
No, it's my issue.
I just got so swept up that I...
I never stopped to think about the future.
We fell in love. There's nothing else to think about.
I can't stomach the idea that, one day,
I'm gonna be old and feeble and becoming this burden to you.
There's no universe where you would ever be a burden.
You say that now.
Maybe the reason you're having a hard time processing this
is because this is your first relationship.
Because the whole immortality thing is no big deal.
This is just because you're the only guy I've been with.
No, no, no. All I'm saying is every relationship is complicated.
Perhaps ours wouldn't seem so daunting if you'd have been with someone before me.
Oh. So, what? I should go sow my oats?
You're putting words in my mouth.
And you're twisting this into something that it isn't.
I'm not a child, Magnus.
Then stop acting like one.
I've lost my appetite.
So you just walked out?
What else am I supposed to do?
- What happens now? - I don't know.
Do you have any advice, or is this an interrogation?
I wish I knew what to tell you,
but the reason why I find Downworlders appealing
is because those issues prevent things from getting serious.
Well, that's comforting.
But what you and Magnus have is real.
If anyone can make it work, it's you two.
I'm just here to see my children.
Is that Mom?
Show some respect.
This woman's been excommunicated by the Clave.
She can't enter.
This woman is Alec Lightwood's mother.
- Allowances can be made. - It's fine.
Hey! While I'm in charge, Maryse Lightwood is allowed in the Institute. Understood?
I'm sorry. I should have called ahead.
No, it's no problem.
Mom, did the... The deruning, did it hurt?
Not at all.
The adjustment's actually been easier than I expected.
Have you found a place to live yet?
Stay here if you'd like.
We can make that happen.
I meant what I said. You're always welcome.
Thank you, but I've actually found a place.
All I want right now is to spend some time with my wonderful children.
Speaking of which, where's Jace?
I've examined the Institute archives.
There's no record of a Greater Demon matching this one.
I don't know what to do.
Ithuriel said the Owl has a master.
This has to be who it is. And it's powerful enough to kill an angel.
I have to tell everyone.
Do that, and it unravels everything about Raziel and the wish.
- I don't care if the Clave locks me up. - Well, I do.
And what about Jace?
He carried that same lie. He'll be in trouble just like you.
And the last thing he needs is for his treatment to be interrupted.
I have another job for you.
Whatever you need, my Queen.
The blood sacrifice is almost complete. There are 32 disciples.
One more, and Jonathan will be ready.
Now, go find me my last virtuous mundane.
I will.
Rise.
I know you're in there, Jace Herondale.
I know you're suffering.
When I'm done using you,
you will return to find your friends dead
and your world on fire,
burning at the hands of the son you so callously took from me.
And when you scream and beg for death,
I will smile.
Now kiss me.
You will need your energy.
Why did Raphael dig her up?
A member of his clan murdered her,
so I guess he was just trying to give her her life back.
Little did he know, she'd become my own personal stalker.
Do Downworlder restraining orders exist?
- What?
Simon, when you were first Turned, you had a built-in support system.
By the way this girl's reacting, it doesn't sound like she has anybody.
It's hard when the person that made you abandons you.
Trust me. I know.
You're right. I can't just walk away from this.
- Who are you texting? - Raphael.
He's part of this mess. He could at least give me some sire tips.
Your father says Max is doing much better.
- That makes me so happy.
Uh-oh. Who are you talking to?
Nobody.
- Mom, we need to talk. - About your new beau?
About you. Your excommunication and...
I told you, Isabelle. I'm okay.
Why don't I believe you?
Mama, we said no more secrets. Remember?
You don't have to hide how you feel.
I feel so lost,
like I don't know who I am anymore.
Look at me.
It's like they were never even there.
You're still you.
Still strong and brave and beautiful.
But no longer a Shadowhunter.
I don't know what I'm supposed to do now.
You're not alone.
You have four kids that love you more than anything.
In fact, Alec and I were talking.
We want to take you out tonight.
I don't think that's a good idea.
You said you wanted to spend more time with us.
So, let's go out as a family.
All right, I'll go...
if I get to meet him.
It's been one date. It's not even serious.
I know my daughter.
Anyone who makes you smile like that...
must be someone special.
Bring him tonight.
So, this Owl is just a puppet,
possessing mundanes on behalf of some scary demon?
Something like that.
All of the Owl's targets vanished after killing their loved ones.
If we can find even one of them, they might lead us to the Owl.
Hey, Sam, you got my message?
Yeah, I know. I'm sorry.
Sam, wait.
She all right?
She's not a happy camper.
Yeah, I get it.
Just make sure she knows that she's the most important thing in your life.
Hey, what are you doing here?
I thought you were at the Silent City.
Yeah, I was. I completed my treatment.
- Already? - It's crazy, right?
The Silent Brothers work fast.
But I'm good. I'm great.
I was on my way to the Institute to share the good news.
Yeah.
Why are you here?
Oh, I'm...
- taking a walk. - Taking a walk?
Since when do you take walks?
Just clearing my head.
Right.
Hey, look, forget about me.
I'm glad you're feeling better.
Mom's back. She'll be happy to see you.
Oh, great.
You look better.
I'm finally back to myself.
Whatever they did was a success.
- You're cleared for duty? - Yes, I am.
Jace. It worked?
It's so good to have you back.
It's good to be back.
A lot happened while you were gone.
We need to talk, but not here.
We'll talk later.
I want to get caught up in the ops center.
Jace.
Yeah?
- Are you sure you're okay? - I'm great.
We'll talk later, okay?
Raphael?
Are you in there?
Raphael?
Simon.
Yeah, about last night.
That wasn't the way to handle it, and I'd like to make it up to you.
Come. Sit.
I heard your music online, and it's really good.
You're really talented.
- Here, have a drink. - Where is Raphael?
He texted me.
Uh... Yeah, sorry. Hmm.
I catfished you.
I had a feeling you wouldn't come if you knew it was me, so...
So, where is Raphael?
Who cares?
Well, he did bring you back from the dead.
Yeah, to see if I'd be a Daylighter like you.
What?
He locked me in a laundry room and then drugged me,
and burnt me with a light over and over to see if I had your powers.
I didn't.
But what kept me going was the thought of you,
my sire.
When we were at the bleeder den and you fed on me,
you were so different.
The way you hesitated, I could tell that...
you didn't want to hurt me.
No one does that.
No one cares. No mundane, no vampire, no...
Well, not even my own family.
I'm so sorry you had to go through all of that,
and for my part in it.
I hope you'll forgive me.
There's nothing to forgive.
I love being a vampire. It's like a dream come true.
Oh, uh...
Well... cool.
If you ever need anything, I'm here for you.
Oh, no, that's not what I meant.
I have a girlfriend. That's...
- Yeah.
Mmm.
- Of course you do. A guy like you. - Yeah.
What's her name?
I actually have to go now, but...
like I said, if you need anything, advice, I'm here.
So, just...
Just call me, okay?
Okay.
It all happened so fast. I wish I got a better look at it.
Well, I've seen a lot of demons in my day, but never this.
The last thing I remember, it touched its claw to my chest.
I still don't know why it didn't kill me.
Powerful demons often leave an imprint, traces of their unique energy.
If I can tap into the spot where it made contact with you,
perhaps we can get a better sense of what it is.
What is it?
This energy signature,
it's the one that corrupted the ley lines.
It seems we're chasing the same demon.
- What are you doing? - I'm sending a message to an old contact.
He has access to information far beyond my resources.
Hopefully, he's willing to help us identify the beast.
I should tell Jace.
Biscuit, is everything okay?
I tried to tell Jace about all this earlier,
but he was acting strange.
Strange how?
Maybe I'm being paranoid,
but he didn't exactly seem happy to see me.
I tried to hug him, and it felt odd.
Relationships.
They can be exasperating, can't they?
Yeah.
Sometimes, it's best just to be patient.
Jace has been through a lot.
He probably needs time.
Oh. We're in luck.
Brother Zachariah says he's willing to meet.
Tonight.
Okay, great. Thanks, Kyle, I appreciate it.
Kyle wants us to leave the apartment, find a place to lay low till he's back.
I can't. I have work tonight.
Can't your shift be covered?
No.
And tell that Praetor I won't hide 'cause a vamp chick can't take a hint.
You didn't... You didn't see the look on her face.
When I was at her place, I...
I smelt fresh blood. A lot of it.
You think she killed a mundane?
I don't know, but I was stupid enough to tell her I have a girlfriend.
What if she comes after you?
Let her.
She'll be sorry she did.
That you had the courage to get help...
I am so proud of you.
- I'm just glad I'm back to normal. - Yeah.
How about we order food?
That is a great idea. I'm starving.
I hope I'm not embarrassing you.
What are you talking about?
You're our mom.
- We stand by you. - Always.
Thank you.
If there's a silver lining in this,
it's being with the three of you again.
So, what will you do now?
I need to find a job.
I'm looking forward to it, actually.
Where's Magnus? I'm surprised he's not here yet.
It is happy hour.
I left him a message.
I'm sure he'll be here soon.
Isabelle, where's your friend?
What friend?
Friend? Wait, you have a new boyfriend?
Why am I the last to hear of it?
Alec, I haven't heard about this one either.
He's not my boyfriend.
We've been on one date.
He's a doctor.
What is he? A werewolf? A warlock?
He's a mundane.
- Seriously? - Well, that's new.
I'm practically a mundane now.
- You have to promise to behave yourselves. - Us?
What?
Oh, Isabelle, he is handsome.
Mom.
I can't wait to meet him.
So, what kind of doctor are you?
- Pediatric surgeon. - You work with children.
Yeah, kids love to break their arms, run into coffee tables.
And not everybody heals as fast as Isabelle.
Yeah.
The magic of makeup.
Anyway, Isabelle's told me about the family business.
What exactly did she tell you?
Is the jewelry a secret?
Oh. Jewelry. She told you we're jewelers.
We prefer to think of ourselves as artists.
What is it?
Uh, it's nothing. I just need a refill. Excuse me.
Can I get a refill? Make it a double.
Tough day at the office?
You could say that.
I don't usually...
No. Hey, hey, no judgment here.
If anyone deserves a drink, it's the head of the Institute, right?
I can't even begin to imagine the stress that would bring.
Yeah.
So, where's your better half?
Busy.
- Oh. That's too bad. - Mmm.
You know, I'll just... I'll leave you to your drink.
Have a good rest of the night, okay?
You, too.
At ease, soldier.
Aren't you going to say hi to them?
Heidi caught me off guard twice. I won't let it happen again.
Simon, I told you.
I can handle it.
I don't doubt that, but I'm not leaving your side.
Okay, well...
Try blinking every once in a while. You're freaking people out.
Thank you.
Who's up for some dessert?
- I am. - Sure.
Maryse Lightwood?
At the Hunter's Moon?
Lucian.
Let's get another round.
Obviously you heard what happened.
I did.
I'm sorry.
Poetic justice, isn't it?
Considering how shamefully I acted when you were excommunicated.
I'm not here to rub it in.
Believe me. I know firsthand how hard it is.
Reaching for your stele and realizing it's not there.
I know it's daunting.
But, I promise, it's not all bad.
And if you need help adjusting, I'm around.
I appreciate that.
It is a new beginning.
A chance for me to be a better person.
- There you go.
What?
Nothing. I just...
What?
I haven't seen you let your hair down,
literally, since the Accords Ball in Idris.
That was 20 years ago.
- Was that 20 years ago?
You look as lovely as you did then.
So, where is your friend?
He should be here.
Magnus, are you okay?
Yeah.
I've been focused on my own problems, but I can tell.
Something's going on.
Alec and I had a fight.
A bad one.
We both said some things we didn't actually mean.
I'm sorry.
But there's nothing you two can't work out.
I hope that's true.
Magnus Bane.
It has been too long.
Indeed it has.
I'm sorry to call on you like this.
Clary, this is Brother Zachariah.
You're a Silent Brother?
I know I appear unlike the others.
But that is a tale for another day.
These texts contain information on long-forgotten demon forms.
They may hold a clue to your creature's identity.
You understand, if the Brotherhood discovers I helped you with this...
No one will know you were here today.
Thank you for your assistance.
Any friend of Will Herondale is a friend of mine.
Herondale?
We both were close with Jace's ancestor.
I know I shouldn't ask this, but did you help with Jace's treatment?
He's been acting differently since he got back.
We received his treatment request.
I would have been happy to oversee it.
"Would have been"? What do you mean?
Jace Herondale never came to the Silent City.
- Hey, stranger. - Hey.
You seem stressed.
Stressed? No, no, I'm fine. Totally relaxed.
Wanna talk about it?
Not really. But how are you? I heard about your mom. Must be tough.
I wish there was something more useful I can do.
Being a Shadowhunter...
it meant everything to her.
When my mom was going through her issues, I felt powerless, too.
But I realized sometimes a parent just needs to know that you're there for them.
And you are, 'cause you're an awesome daughter.
What was that for?
For being you.
Hey, you wanna play?
Oh, no, no, no.
No, I'm...
I'm good.
- Are you good? - Yes. Yeah.
There's a chance, if I try to get up, I'll fall over.
Yeah, apparently I don't have the tolerance of a 800-year-old warlock.
Right.
This is your fault,
because you said to drink as much as I want.
That's funny, 'cause that's not exactly as I remember it.
Hmm.
Look, do you need help back to your table?
No, no, no. Uh...
My mother can't see me like this.
And Jace and Izzy.
They will never let me hear the end of it.
Right.
I got an idea.
How about I help you through the back? I'll hail you a cab.
When I come back in,
I'll just tell your family that you got called in on Institute business.
You'd do that?
Sure.
Thank you.
Your secret's safe with me.
Restroom's that way.
You don't deserve him.
Excuse me?
You don't deserve him.
Him who?
Get away from me!
Stay down. State your name and clan.
Isabelle.
Isabelle, wait.
- You know this vampire? - Her name's Heidi.
I'm her sire.
It's a complicated story,
but she's not in her right mind.
Raphael tortured her.
He thought, because she had my blood, she might be a Daylighter, too.
- So... - Wait.
- You're the one he experimented on? - Yes.
You knew about that?
I'm the one who made Raphael leave town.
- So do you understand? - I do.
But she went rogue,
attacked a blood truck, killed a mundane.
She even tried to kill me.
She needs to be turned in to the Clave.
They'll do what? Execute her?
Toss her into the Gard forever? She doesn't deserve that.
Everyone knows how hard it is for fledglings to control their urges.
And she didn't have anyone looking out for her.
But now she does.
So please, Isabelle.
I'll make sure she never hurts anyone again.
Get her out of here.
Yeah.
Hey. How's it going?
I'm good. You?
You wanna step outside?
Grab some fresh air?
No problem.
Isabelle.
Is that blood?
Oh, this?
You know, I tend to get nosebleeds.
It's something that kind of...
I'm not stupid.
What's going on with you?
Nothing. Really. I'm fine.
Come on. Let's get dessert.
There's usually cabs here.
Magnus and I had our first date here.
I asked him if he thought we were too different to be together.
We never really answered that question.
And now...
Now, it's come around to bite me in the ass.
That's why you got tense when I brought it up.
- I'm sorry-- - No, just...
Forget I said anything.
Look...
I may not know all the details,
but I think I can guess what you mean when you talk about your differences.
Magnus isn't a Shadowhunter. He may not understand our ways.
Nephilim love once, fiercely.
Whatever you're feeling...
it's okay.
Don't be so hard on yourself.
Right.
I gotta go.
- Here, let me get that. - I got it.
- I'll be right back. - Okay.
Sorry to pop up like this.
You didn't answer your phone.
What's going on? I thought you were headed home.
I am, but I wanted to let you know I found a lead.
Transit surveillance footage of two of our Owl victims
coming up from the subway at 125th Street.
Hundred and twenty-fifth.
So, you think they're gathering somewhere in Harlem?
Could be. Well, it's a start at least.
Nice work.
We'll check it out in the morning.
It'll be safer to sniff around during daylight.
Get outta here.
Go spend time with your lady.
And you go back to yours.
Simon, what you did back there,
choosing me, you won't regret it.
I know you don't love me.
But...
when you're ready, we'll start a clan of our own.
I'm sorry.
What?
I'm sorry.
Simon, what's going on?
They're from the Praetor Lupus.
It's an organization that helps Downworlders.
They're here to help rehabilitate you.
If you cooperate, you won't be harmed.
You son of a bitch!
Hey. You did the right thing.
Why doesn't it feel like it?
If he wasn't in the City of Bones, where was he?
I'm sure there's an explanation, even a good one.
We're supposed to be in this together.
You don't lie to someone you love.
Wait.
You said Jace acted cold towards you before.
Detached.
As if he didn't have any feelings for you anymore.
I don't know. I guess.
Around the time that Jace was preparing to go to the Silent City,
a woman came to see me.
She requested an elixir that would make a person fall out of love.
Something was off about her.
I couldn't put my finger on it right away,
but what if she was simply masking her power?
What if she was the demon that attacked you,
disguised in human form?
You think it's possible?
To complete the potion,
a sliver of soul is required from the object of affection.
You wondered why the demon only touched you,
- instead of just kill you. - But why?
Why would she give the elixir to Jace?
We need to find him.
Hey, kiddo.
- Luke, you at Hunter's Moon? - Yeah.
Is Jace there?
Yeah, he left a couple minutes ago.
Why? What's wrong?
Low of 51 degrees tonight, with scattered clouds,
warming up to a high of 69 degrees tomorrow.
Low of 58--
No...
Stop!
Oh, my God. Jace.
It's you?
It was him all along.
