Elsewhere, a couple is stranded on the side of a road with a flat tire.

Stella then introduces herself as Stella Nashira, adding that: "A Lodestar's work cannot be rushed." Trick explains to Bo that Stella has given guidance to hundreds of Fae to prepare for The Dawning in the past. Stella continues telling Bo: "You harbour great rage and great regret. These two negatives are making it very hard for you to know yourself. Embrace your true identity." Bo's answer is: "Everyone has hangups." Stella explains that such issues are usually from childhood and Bo throws up her hands commenting that: "It's always mommy issues with you guys." She then explains that she and [[Aife]] worked their issues out in hand to hand combat which confuses Stella until Trick explains that Bo was not raised by her Fae mother and that Bo's adopted mother Mary and Bo had a falling out as well. Bo's comment is: "Twice the mommies twice the baggage." Stella tells Bo that she must confront Mary over this but Bo refuses to do so. Stella explains that Bo's anger is hurting her, but Bo retorts that her mother hurt her. Stella is firm on this point and tells Bo that she must return home and forgive her mother. Bo is enraged and tells Stella and Trick that she will not return to her mother who she describes as a "warped bigot." Trick tells Bo that he must or she will become an UnderFae, Bo's answer is: "Let's hope it's a nice cage" as she storms away. | |||

The episode opens with Bo (Anna Silk) being taught by Trick (Richard Howland) in one of the lower rooms of the Dal Riata to pass the first of her challenges. It involves her passing through an archway to reach Trick who waits on the other side of it. Trick asks her to try again, and Bo does so, but as she reaches the archway, a force field of some kind violently throws her back from it. Trick asks what she did and Bo's answer is, in a very irritated tone: "Beg the invisible threshold to knock me on my ass obviously. Was I not supposed to?" Trick explains that most Fae have years to prepare for the rites of passage, but Bo has only days before she devolves "into something that I have to keep in a cage." Bo's retort is: "Haven't you always wanted a pet?" as she storms around Trick and begins to flip through a book nearby. Trick comments: "I see that impending doom hasn't effected your sense of humour." Bo continues to focus on the book and asks why the book doesn't tell how to pass the test. Trick explains that much is left to interpretation which only irritates Bo further. Trick tells Bo to "focus on the now" and Bo mimics his words and adds: "shift consciousness and achieve an effortless merging of effort and awareness" and Trick finishes the lesson by adding "to allow yourself to cross the threshold." Bo slumps in defeat and answers: "So, I'm on my own then." Trick can only shrug and say nothing in return. Bo takes a deep breath and then tries a mantra of: "Focusing. Shifting. Merging. And I Bo Dennis allow myself to pass." Bo then reaches out a hand which is repelled, her anger overcomes her, and she storms out of the room telling Trick that she needs a break and is going home.
Elsewhere, a couple is stranded on the side of a road with a flat tire. The two argue for a time, the woman complaining about being in the country with him, he explaining that they are there "for the best cherries in the world and I thought my fiancée would have liked to know where I grew up."

Winds whips around the area and the scene darkens before the jack holding up the car slips and it falls killing the man beneath it. The strange woman vanishes in a whirl of black smoke and the scene returns to normal again. The woman returns to the car to find her fiancé dead and screams in horror.
