By the Light of Dawn, the Season 2a finale, leads us to discuss the weirdness of half seasons and half seasons finales, like two grannies complaining that ‘this kind of thing didn’t happen when we were young…’.
We spend a lot of this episode talking about diversity and representation on television, take a stroll down memory lane reminiscing about BBC’s Merlin, turn into a bit of a PSA about Society, Sexuality and Diversity, before asking the question on the tip of everyone’s tongue… Why exactly are there angelic power cores in all of the institutes? What do they do? And how were they built?
This is your last chance to VOTE IN OUR DRINKING GAME and decide exactly how drunk we are going to get…

We discuss Bound By Blood, in which, turns out, many things are weird and/or uncomfortable.
Alec’s random stab in the dark guess at his boyfriend’s age is weird. Maia decision to kill Clary is uncomfortable. Aldertree is weird and uncomfortable (No surprise there). Luke’s decision to lock Maia in a cupboard to punish her is off the charts uncomfortable… And then we open the box of Parabatai feelings and implications…
We campaign early on to buyjaceapuppy.com but in hindsight, I think it should be buyusapuppy.com, as furry cuddles might make everything better.

This episode is unreasonably long. Sorry about that!
Turns out brilliant Malec & Climon relationship development, a party put on by Mr. Bane, sangria, lots of cats, Lightwood family drama, sangria, drug addiction and, oh yes, a suicide attempt, will do that to a podcast.
Have we mentioned the sangria?
We had a vote and the majority wanted the episode in one go, rather than split in half. If you are looking for a natural moment to break the episode, our discussion of the party and the bottle part of the episode starts at 52 minutes.

We discuss this episodes truly lovely structure, the many ways in which we love Maia Roberts, weird relationship advice courtesy of Jace Wayland-Lightwood-Morgenstern, how Maia is wonderful, Isabelle’s poor life choices… and oh yeah, that scene, y’know, that one. Did we mention that we love Maia?

In which Clary is as pure as the driven special snowflake, Izzy’s purity pool is as black as her soul and Jace is a… well. There is simply no PG way to call Jace a co**block, but that’s what he is.
A beautifully filmed, directed and acted epsiode, picking right up from the high standards set last week by the entire Shadowhunters team.
We discuss pain, self-harm, loss, grief, death… This episode of tDiE is an absolute laugh riot, basically. For a bit of levity, we do also debate Harry Shum Jr’s height, the warlock case files and Alec’s willingness to do anything to make things better with Clary, including building a pyramid of frogs. Obviously.

In which Jace is suicidal, the Clave continue to be a despicable organisation, Izzy discovers Yin Fen, Magnus’ back story is further explored, Alec & Clary are forced to work together – which is always delightful – and difficult choices have to be made by all of our core cast.
This episode is jam packed with character development, poignant revelations, beautiful cinematography & directing and stellar acting all around.
