Plot

Short Summary

It is revealed that Aife has been held in a Fae institution since attacking Trick at the beginning of Season Four, which enrages Bo as that was not revealed to her. Hades leaves his isolation cell and Bo discovers that Aife and Hades are at Zee’s condominium, seemly together again as a couple. They explain everything Bo has been told is a lie and they tell Bo her past from their perspective. Hades tells Bo that like her, they want justice and want Bo to join them, but she refuses. Afterwards, Aife encounters Bo and claims to be lying to Hades and when she claims that Bo has a plan to overcome Hades, and Bo tells her this isn’t true, Aife loses her mind once more.

Bo confronts Trick over Aife’s being imprisoned and he tells Bo that Hades used Aife for his own ends, Trick giving Bo all of the information on her mother, telling her to make up her own mind about what her life’s story really is. Tamsin and Lauren join Bo in reviewing Aife’s past, and the tapes reveal an video of Bo seeing her mother. This reveals that Hades has been impersonating Bo. Tamsin seems to be losing her hair, and Lauren is concerned when Tamsin tells her that it means she is dying, but Tamsin refuses to tell Lauren that she was intimate with Bo shortly before this. After the discovery of Hades impersonating Bo, Lauren’s tests reveal that Tamsin is pregnant with Hades’ child.

Bo, Tamsin and Dyson attack Hades at the condominium, but have no effect on him, Hades stabbing Dyson causing them to retreat. Bo then attempts to remove Hades’ mark from her chest, but it remains while Hades does seem to notice the attempt to do so. Trick attempts to flee with Aife but Hades arrives to stop them. Bo then returns to the condominium where she finds Aife dead and Trick close to death, Trick dying moments after Bo arrives. When Dyson seeks out Bo, he finds her catatonic, kneeling beside Trick and Aife’s bodies, and not responsive.
