Plot

Short Summary

Bo is approached by a babysitter who claims that something happened to her employer. Dyson is approached by a Fae who lost contact with her twin sister and believes something happened. Bo discovers the babysitter is Fae and a coven of witches have taken control of her. Bo stops them with some mysterious help, and then, at the behest of the babysitter, kills her so she cannot be used again. Tamsin and Dyson go over the kills that were assumed be Bo’s and find someone is killing mass numbers of Fae, but do not know who. Lauren is offered a job, but after her past is investigated, it appears that she is a fugitive from the law. She decides to make a break with the Fae and leaves, severing her connections with them completely.

Detailed Summary

The episode begins with Bo (Anna Silk) and Kenzi (Ksenia Solo) at Bo's place watching a horror movie on television. As the movie progresses, Kenzi calls out: "and cue the blond in the baby doll dress walking into the woods alone" before grabbing a bowl of popcorn and adding: "human sashimi anyone?" and having some. Bo has some as she replies: "I could rescue her so easily." Kenzi tells Bo: "Yes, yes you can Chi-suck your way to victory, You are a superstar, you really can do anything." Bo mumbles: "Except fix my relationship." After Kenzi agrees: "You suck at coupledom", Bo tells Kenzi: "I think what you meant was no worries Bo-Bo you're just on a break." Kenzi allows that Bo is and makes a few sarcastic comments, but when Bo asks her when she was last on a dat, Kenzi's reply is: "Dating is so not a thing. I have a vibrant inner life." Bo mentions that reminds her they need more batteries and Kenzi looks at Bo adding: "oh-oh." Bo insists she feels alright and that the break that she and Lauren are in the middle of is just "part of the Bo and Lauren journey. We'll be together in our own time." Bo then points at the television calling out: "Oh! fresh meat! The babysitter! ... and the phone is ringing." Kenzi adds: "Spoiler alert! The call is coming from inside the house!" Bo continues: "Which means the killer is inside the house!" Kenzi becomes more animated yelling: "No! No! Don't pick up the phone! Get out of the house!" Bo joins in and throws popcorn at the screen at the same time.

The scene switches to a babysitter named Lisa (Kate Ross) in a house somewhere answering the phone. At first the call sounds like an obscene call, but then changes and she recognizes the caller as one of her employers, Tim Parker, apparently calling from India. He asks how everything is and they talk for a while, but then the conversation turns strange again when he describes what she is wearing. Lisa is frightened by something outside, hangs up the phone, and then discovers her employer hanging from the ceiling in a hallways nearby. She seems to faint but then is next seen laying on a couch asleep, the events seemingly a nightmare as she is woken up by Mrs. Parker who assures her that all is well before walking away leaving Lisa confused as she looks to where she saw Mr. Parker hanging and there is nothing to be seen.

After the opening credits, Kenzi and Bo meet Lisa who found one of their old detective flyers they put up in the beginning of the first season. Kenzi comments: "Look Bo-Bo, we were so young." When asked where she found it, Lisa tells them: "On a bulletin board in a coffee shop under a poster for meditation classes." Bo looks at it commenting: "It's been a while since we've taken a case cold but it could be fun... satisfying." Kenzi asks about Caroline and Tim Parker and what is so odd about the place they live, being sure to ask: "It isn't built on an ancient burial ground or a portal to hell is it?" Lisa insists that something happened to Tim which brings Kenzi to ask: "Did you accidentally sacrifice a virgin?" Bo is shocked and Kenzi looks at Bo telling her: "What? It happens." Lisa insists that many bizarre things have happened in the gated community called Shady Grove. Kenzi pulls Bo aside and they have a short conversation. Kenzi comments that while she likes the idea of "Bo and Kenzi playing Dangerous Housewives" they have no evidence to look into. Bo points out that Lisa seems to terrified and Kenzi finally agrees: "Alert the neighbourhood. Hotties be invading." and they agree to look into Lisa's concerns.

Meanwhile at the police station, Dyson (Kristen Holden-Ried) is at his desk looking through some files when a young woman enters and asks to speak with him, explaining that The Ash sent her. Dyson pauses for a moment as she looks very much like the woman that was found dead after being with Bo during the episode Faes Wide Shut. Dyson agrees and she introduces herself as Anita (Miram McDonald), then explains that a few weeks ago she felt pain unlike anything she had before and lost contact with her twin sister. Dyson asks if they were identical, which they were. When asked how he knew, Dyson explains that identical twins have a connection unlike any other. Anita continues to explain that normally her sister contacted her every few weeks while she travelled, but she suddenly stopped doing so. Dyson agrees to help and looks at a picture of Anita's sister as he does so.

The scene switches to a small exclusive gated community in the suburbs where Bo and Kenzi are being shown a house by Susan Bates (Sadie LeBlanc) who extols the virtues of the area to them. As Bo and Kenzi look around, Bo comments that the house looks "grown up nice" while Kenzi scoffs "our place has character." Bo answers: "And roach-termite hybrids." Susan asks if Bo's husband would like the place, but Bo explains that she is looking for a fresh start and so is "my sister Kenzi who just left rehab." After Bo and Kenzi hug Kenzi explains: "Anti-depressants. Turns out there is such a thing as too perky!" Susan presses Bo for more information and Bo tells her that: Lau..rence... and I are taking a break." Kenzi adds: "He left her at the altar for our other sister." Susan tells Bo that she's better off and that she learned that after her second divorce. Bo then presses Susan for more information about the community and is told that the person that owned the house, Jake Thatcher, disappeared leaving everything behind when he did so. As they continue to talk, a man looks in though a window and Susan explains that his name is Sam (Ryan Scott Greene) and since his wife disappeared he has become weird, and he has a weird ten year old as well. Then Susan's phone rings and she answers the call, becoming very animated and upset that something has started without her. After ending the call, she makes her excuses, explaining that her friend Caroline is "just losing it" and rushes off, asking Bo and Kenzi to lock up when they are finished. After Susan leaves, Bo and Kenzi agree that there is a connection between Caroline and the missing people in the community and decide to follow Susan who they see enter a home nearby. Kenzi and Bo go around the side of the house and look in a window, Kenzi commenting the the interior looks like "home makeover safari edition" as a scream comes from inside. Bo and Kenzi rush to the front door. Kenzi questions this saying that "I thought only stupid girls go into the house." Bo reveals that she is carrying a knife adding "unless she's got this and she's just awesome" and they burst in to find Susan with Caroline and another woman drinking, laughing and screaming in the front room. Susan comments that they know how to make an entrance and Caroline asks: "Do you always bring a knife to book club?" Kenzi asks if they are reading 50 Shades of Grey, but all they do is laugh at the question.
