Plot
Short Summary
A series of wealthy humans are being killed by crushing, and Dyson and Hale are called in to investigate. They come to the conclusion that Fae must be involved and ask Bo and Kenzi to go undercover in order to seek out the killer. They agree, and with Ciara's help, they are brought into the world of the rich and famous. Kenzi and Bo then become suspects when one of the humans are killed at the party they are attending. After interviewing the suspects, one person, named Lita, that was attending the party is singled out as the most likely suspect. Bo and Dyson go undercover as a couple and meet her and she is revealed to be a Snake Fae. But it turns out that while she is one, the men were killed by crushing and not by poison which is how Lita would normally kill someone. It turns out that another Fae called a Batibat, named Maganda is killing the men in order to collect items they own that were made from a tree that she was linked to. They capture her, and find the Fae trader that has been selling the items to the humans in the city. They force him to return all of the items to their rightful owner thus ending the killing spree. Bo comes to a resolution with Ciara over her relationship with Dyson, and also comes to call Ciara a friend, hoping to find a way for both of them to move forward with their lives. Afterwards, Ciara and Dyson talk about their relationship and she reveals to him that she loves him and he promises to make her happy. Lauren goes to the Ash with the news that many Light Fae are being killed and in return for helping him to discover why, she asks for the Ash's help with Nadia, but he refuses her. When she defies him, he imprisons her.
Detailed Summary
The episode begins with Bo (Anna Silk) and Kenzi (Ksenia Solo) standing outside of a high class fashion store discussing a jacket they see in the window. Kenzi tells Bo that she could go in and use her powers to get the jacket for free, but Bo tells her that it isn't her style. A moment later and Ciara (Lina Roessler) leaves the store and sees the pair standing there. She comes over to talk to them. Ciara tries to make small talk with Bo, part of which is trying to thank her for saving her life in the episode Original Skin, but Bo seems to be uncomfortable talking to her. When Ciara tries to take the two women to lunch, on her treat, Kenzi fakes being sick and Bo makes excuses to Ciara for them not being able to join her. Ciara seems to be hurt by this and says her goodbyes before leaving. Kenzi talks to Bo about Ciara and Bo makes it clear that she doesn't want to "hang out" with Ciara as she isn't her friend before the two walk away in the opposite direction.
The scene then shifts to a party somewhere else in the city where various high class rich people are drinking and partying together. A couple pass through the party and then enter a room together, the man, Cameron (Rainbow Sun Francks) closing the door behind the woman (Devon MacDonald) as they enter. They make out for a time before the man shows the women some condoms that he keeps in a small wooden box. She lays on the bed in the room obviously drunk trying to make up her mind and then a shadow crosses over her body and the sound of the man being crushed is heard. When she opens her eyes again and looks around, she can't see him and then finds him on the floor obviously dead and screams.
Returning from the opening credits, Dyson (Kristen Holden-Ried) and Hale (K.C. Collins) are at the scene of the murder investigating. Through the course of their conversation, it becomes clear that this event is one in a series of murders that have been happening over the past few weeks. The victims have been rich upper class men who all were killed at home. All of the deaths having the same appearance, the body being crushed to death and no witnesses of how the deaths occurred. Hale comes to the conclusion that the likely suspect has to be a Fae, but has little other clues to share. Dyson agrees with Hale, but since they have been seen at the murder scene they cannot go undercover to find out more information at other parties that seem to be the one connecting factor in all of the murders. But Dyson has a solution for that problem.
Dyson and Hale meet Bo and Kenzi at Bo's home, and try to convince the women to attend the parties and gather information for them. At first Kenzi and Bo are not interested, but Hale describes the parties as being insanely lavish to the point where Kenzi comments: "I'm going to marry one of these parties." Bo relents as does Kenzi, but Bo asks how they can possibly attend an A-list party. Dyson's answer is that the two women are going to have to attend prep school with someone that knows the high-class world. That persons turns out to be Ciara. She meets Bo in an upper class fashion store and goes about trying to give Bo all of the information she will need in order to attend the party. She gives Bo a complete guest list for the party with background on every person attending as well. As well, Ciara offers Bo a dress that will, she thinks, be perfect for Bo to wear to the party. Bo attempts to divert Ciara's attention by asking about one of the people on the list. She is told that person is Russel Cooper (Kristopher Turner) the host of the party. Several other people are named off and Ciara tells Bo about them as well. One of these is named Lita S (Sitara Hewitt) who is a fashionista for the rich and famous. Ciara also mentions that Lita was seen to be very close to the first murder victim. Bo then goes off to try on the dress that Ciara wants her to wear, as she does so, Ciara tries to explain to Bo that she wants to help because she can't see anything of the world that Bo and Dyson are involved in and she wants to know more about her and Dyson and what has happened to him. Bo's answer is that the dress is over her head and she can't understand her.
The scene then shifts to the party and Russel is seen in the middle of it all. Moments later, a woman walks up to him and he greets her as Lita. She gives him a gift of a belt, especially made for him, and he goes off to put it on. Bo and Kenzi walk into the party next, Kenzi trying to decide where she will start gathering the free things that are being given away, Bo reminding her that they are supposed to be investigating for Dyson and Hale. Russel then approaches Bo and Kenzi and starts making small talk with them. Bo introduces Kenzi as "Kimmi" and Kenzi calls Bo "Bitzy." Kenzi flits with Russel, telling him that they live upstairs, heard about the party and decided to come down and see what it was all about. Russel seems to be smitten with her and they go off together leaving Bo to continue checking out the other people at the party on her own and then approaches a man named Clive (Drew Nelson). They carry on with some small talk and Bo learns that he owns a software company that Russel invested in. He begins to show Bo pictures of his niece on a tablet he has, and then Lita interrupts them. Bo attempts to make small talk with her and asks about having some boots made for a girlfriend, but Lita refuses saying that her focus is on men alone. Lita then focuses her attention on Clive and talks about the cover he has on his tablet. She then takes the tablet and walks away with it. Bo continues to talk to Clive and asks if he knew Cameron, the man that was killed at the beginning of the episode. He tells Bo that he did and that he was also at the party where Cameron was murdered, but doesn't want to talk about it and leaves Bo. Meanwhile, Russel and Kenzi have completed their tour of the party and wind up alone. Kenzi asks Russel about his relationship with Cameron and he tells Kenzi that Cameron was a brother to him. Russel goes off to find a book of artistic nudes to show Kenzi and she looks around a desk in the room before opening a box sitting there. Russel tells Kenzi that the box was made from a tree in Belize and Kenzi acts suitably impressed with it. Then someone comes into the room and hits Kenzi over the head knocking her out and then moves towards Russel.
Returning from commercial, we find Kenzi, Russel and Clive all unconscious on the floor. Kenzi awakens first and pushes Russel off of her, but then realizes that Russel is dead as Clive awakes and the pair scream in shock. Elsewhere, the Ash is seen in his chambers admiring a small glass box that seems to contain a creature of some kind suspended in it. Lauren (Zoie Palmer) enters and the Ash asks her if she knows what he is holding in his hand. Lauren tells him that it is the body of a Pari, which the Ash adds is an endangered Fae of Persian origin. He also notes that they are beautiful creatures until they swarm and then they become like bees with the voices of Angels. Lauren tells the Ash that she knows all about them because she did an autopsy on one for him a few weeks ago. The Ash waves that report in his hand and dismisses it as being incomplete and useless. He then demands that Lauren do a complete autopsy for him now. Lauren is frustrated with the Ash and tells him that she has new evidence with respect to Nadia, but the Ash does not care about it and sends her on her way without further discussion.
Meanwhile, Kenzi is in the police station being grilled by Sargent Ross (Falvio Cecere) about what she was doing there. Kenzi tries to defend herself from him, but he suspects that she is responsible for the murder. He then opens a folder on Kenzi and reveals that Kenzi has used the names Kenzi Williams, Kenzi McAdams, Kenzi Rogers, Rhino Levine, Ninotchka Alexandrovitch and lastly Tony Soprano. Kenzi tries to deflect him, but he is unmoved by her attempt and threatens to make her responsible for the murder. Kenzi is on the verge of tears when Hale barges in and tells the Sargent that the Chief wants him and then Hale takes over. He asks Kenzi for any information on what she saw before she was knocked out and Kenzi lists all of the items that she saw in the room from her memory including the wooden box she was looking at and a business card holder by Lita S. Hale gives Kenzi a hung in thanks and Kenzi comments: "I don't like dead people."
Bo in the meantime is in the police station as well, awaiting her turn to be interviewed. She takes a seat beside a bag lady and after she shares a look with her, offers the sandwich that Bo had been intending to eat. The woman introduces herself as Maganda (Pamela Matthews), which means pretty of the forest, and Bo gives her name saying that it means... Bo. Bo then asks if Maganda is there as a witness to the murder and the answer is: "I am witness to all from beneath the tree." Bo asks if Maganda lives in the park, and the answer is that Maganda's home is lost. Maganda seems to be somewhat confused when Bo asks what Maganda has seen, but nonetheless, Bo is kind to her and listens to what she is saying. Maganda talks about many things, one of which is what she calls "a snake with a lady's face." Bo is then called into the interview room and meets with Dyson. He tells her that Clive seems to be okay, if shaken by the experience. Dyson then lays out where Kenzi, Russel and Clive were and asks Bo where she was. The answer is: "In the kitchen trying to pretend that I am not dressed like Succubus Barbie." He asks about her dress, Bo tells him that Ciara picked it out for her, and Dyson tells Bo that she looks nice in it. Bo pushes on and asks if Dyson has interviewed Lita, to which Dyson tells Bo that there is no such person on the interview list. He also tells her that no one seems to have seen anything, but Bo tells him that one person did. After saying that, we see Maganda waiting in the hallway.
Dyson, Bo and Ciara meet at the Dal, and pose the question if Lita is Fae, Bo wondering if Lita might be a Snake Shifter. Ciara notes that all of Lita's items are made of snake skin and Bo comments that it's very green of her to use her own old skin to do so. Dyson points out that other victims have had snake skin items in their possession when they have been killed and asks Bo to go to see Lita, but Bo tells Dyson that she isn't Lita's type. Ciara, with a smile, says that Lita likes handsome guys with more money than brains as she looks at Dyson. Dyson asks if she thinks he matches that description, and Ciara tells him that he has the handsome part down at least. Ciara also tells Bo that she will have to go as well in order for Lita to get interested in Dyson, and that it would be good to have Dyson as her fiancé. Dyson and Bo don't like the idea, but Ciara tells them that they are all friends. Dyson agrees and leaves which allows Bo to ask Ciara if she is okay with the plan. Ciara's answer is: "I trust you."
We next see Bo and Dyson at Lita's office talking to her about having Lita dress Dyson, who is calling himself Wendell, up as he has no style whatsoever, Bo telling Lita that Dyson wears the exact same suit every day of the year. Lita seems to be very interested in Dyson and begins to try and push Bo out of the picture in order to have Dyson for herself. She comments that she wants to bring out the animal in him, and Bo makes the remark that there is an animal inside of Dyson. Lita suddenly realizes that something is wrong and tries to leave, but Dyson confronts her with the
