Bo and Dyson go to see Laveau, who is a voodoo priestess with the most ridiculous accent you have ever heard. If this is Lost Girl's version of the great Marie Laveau, they ought to be ashamed and afraid, cause I wouldn't mess with the memory of that woman for the world. Laveau says that everyone knows who Bo is and that she has seen into Dyson's animal heart. Bo drops a head in a bag and asks who sent it to kill her.

Bo is pacing when Tamsin returns. Bo admits to having questions for Rainer but says that she cannot ignore how she feels. Suddenly, a book opens up to reveal a picture of Rainer causing Tamsin to ask who that is. This shocks Bo and she tells Tamsin that this is her boss to which Tamsin replies,"that's not my boss."

Hale then uses his siren power as Massimo screams in pain. Hale is weakened by the use of power and when he puts his hand to his ear, he pulls away blood as Kenzi watches. Kenzi starts to talk but Hale cannot hear her. Massimo sneaks up behind Hale and stabs him through and through with the sword. Hale falls, telling Kenzi to run. It seems that Massimo is still alive because he has a twig which grants immortality. Massimo tells Kenzi that she can consider her debt paid in full and leaves. Hale tells Kenzi that he loves her before passing out as Kenzi calls for Bo.
When Bo returns, she finds Kenzi lying on top of Hale. Kenzi reveals that Massimo killed Hale. Kenzi explains that he lived because Kenzi gave Massimo a twig for her power. Kenzi asks Bo to bring Hale back and Bo says that there isn't enough chi. Kenzi offers herself but Bo says that she cannot take it from her. Kenzi tells Bo that she will never forgive her if she doesn't do this, so Bo starts but stops. Bo sadly tells Kenzi that she cannot do it with her chi and that she chooses Kenzi over Hale. Kenzi starts to scream saying that she was going to say yes to Hale's proposal, so Bo uses her powers to calm Kenzi. Kenzi once again collapses on Hale as Bo cries.
Wow, is it me or does it feel like the authors aren't even trying this season? Lost Girl feels muddled with no real antagonist to speak of, or any real direction. Sure, they kept the Bo is the super special one that everyone must love because of her specialness but that is not enough to hold a show together.
I am desperately hoping that they figure out a way to bring Hale back. Hale is the only reoccurring POC character on Lost Girl. I haven't looked to see if the actor chose to leave because he is engaged in other work, or if this was the choice of the writers. If it was the choice of the writers it is heinous because it wipes out the little representation Lost Girl actually had. What sense does it make to set a how in Toronto, one of the most multicultural cities in Canada and not have any damn people of colour?
This episode, the writers chose to make a mockery of Marie Laveau. I don't necessarily agree with the treatment Laveau got in American Horror Story, but it is leaps above the portrayal that Lost Girl gave her. It shows an absolute disrespect to a woman who is still revered by people today. Lost Girl has always played with different cultures but this was just wrong on so many levels and to have so easily defeated by Bo completely removes Laveau's power. She was reduced to a comedic farce. Furthermore, I am sick and tired of the same Voodoo tropes in this genre.
