Plot

Short Summary

Kenzi, while drunk, accidentally invokes the witch Baba Yaga in order to put a curse on Dyson for breaking Bo's heart. Dyson discovers that all women now hate him and is furious with Kenzi; he accuses her of meddling with things she doesn't understand and being a stupid human as a result. Kenzi becomes determined to lift the curse and seeks out her aunt, a fortune teller, for help. They manage to summon Baba Yaga and Kenzi sacrifices herself for Bo, becoming trapped in Baba Yaga's realm. Bo agrees to work for the Ash in return for getting help to save Kenzi. She almost drowns in her rescue attempt, but is revived by Dyson. Kenzi manages to defeat Baba Yaga by shoving her into her own oven, she then breaks Baba Yaga's mirror into pieces and gives them to Baba Yaga's captives, allowing them all to escape. Kenzi promises to be more careful going forward, and encourages Bo to keep fighting for Dyson and Lauren.

Questions in this Episode

  • It has been shown in past episodes that Bo can heal from any physical damage however caused by feeding. However in this episode the curse mark she carries does not heal until it is removed by Baba Yaga. Does this then mean that there are other Fae marks or damage that Bo would not be able to heal from?

Answers in this Episode

  • Baba Yaga, is a haggish or witchlike character in Slavic folklore. She flies around on a giant pestle, kidnaps (and presumably eats) small children, and lives in a hut that stands on chicken legs. In most Slavic folk tales, she is portrayed as an antagonist; however, some characters in other mythological folk stories have been known to seek her out for her wisdom, and she has been known on rare occasions to offer guidance to lost souls. According to Propp, she often fulfills the function of donor; that is, her role is in supplying the hero (sometimes unwillingly) with something necessary for the further quest. In the Lost Girl universe, she is a witch, has her own realm that cannot be accessed by other Fae, and serves to grant curses to Eastern European women on those that have wronged them. The curses must be told into a mirror which is her method of travel from her realm, and a mark is placed upon the victim as a result.
