Episode 3
Clary is distraught about Simon being missing, and confused about her mother missing, Valentine as her father, the Mortal Cup, and her new discovery of her being a Shadowhunter.
At Hotel Dumort, the vampires hotel Simon is being held hostage by Raphael. Simon tries to escape but he fails.
(I really don’t care for the title sequence but I’m glad it is not long.)
The Shadowhunters search the cemetery for weapons so they can go get Simon back. Alec voices his concerns about Clary by saying to Jace he is only in it to get laid. The first mention of Parabatai is brought up when Alec reminds Jace that he trusts him as they are Parabatai. Jace then shows Clary how to wield as Shadowhunters sword (This is the first time that I actually believed that Dominic was Jace, he is so passionate when teaches Clary to use the sword.) Jace explains what Parabatai means to Clary, he tells her is it is a bond stronger than friendship, if one dies the other will never be the same, a part of them dies too.
Back at Hotel Dumort Camille, the leader of the vampires freezes Simon and Raphael voices his doubts in Camille’s plan of capturing the mundane and luring Clary to the Hotel. Knowing this plan will turn the shadowhunters agains them. Camille ignores his concerns.
Isabelle goes to see Meliorn her Seelie fling to get information out of him. she does this by trying to seduce him (what a surprise) but being a cunning Seelie he uses his charm to get information about Clary. Isabelle gets information about how to get into the hotel. (The Seelie can’t lie but they are very cunning and good at wordplay.)
Jace takes Clary to a Vampire biker bar and bets she can’t seduce one of them, (yup… more seduction…) Clary goes for it. She was almost immediately Incantoed (Incantoing is when a vampire glamors, makes you obey them.) by the vampire Jace comes over beats the guys ass steals his motorcycle keys and him and Clary take off on the bike, which we find out DOES FLY!!!
Back at Hotel Dumort Camille has Incantoed Simon and is now kissing and distracting him. From Simon Camille finds out that Clary does not know where the Mortal cup is. (Sex appeal gets you what ever you want in this show.)
Back at the Shadowhunters base Hodge finds Alec and basically tells him to take the lead and push Jace out of the spotlight. Hodge seems very bitter, he tells Alec not to end up like him. Alec grabs his crossbow and heads to the Hotel.
Isabelle and Alec go in together by a service entrance and Clary and Jace go in through the back. Isabelle and Alec end up fighting threw a lot of vampires to get to Clary and Jace. Jace and Clary are fighting vampires when Clary over estimates her self and gets caught by a vampire. Alec comes in all bad ass and saves her (I’m sure he would have rather let her die..)
Simon again tries to escape and fails. Camille the leader of the vampires leaves to keep her self safe when she finds out the Shadowhunters were in the hotel. She tells Raphael to kill Simon. The Shadowhunters find Raphael and he by taking Simon hostage he forces all the Shadowhunters to go on the roof and he lets them take Simon. Raphael made sure the shadowhunters knew he did it to keep their truce.
Clary and Simon share a very romantic friend zone moment. It was actually quite sad, I could see the joy melt out of Simons eyes when she said best friend.
Awe don’t worry TV Simon, Movie Simon gets it too…
The episode ends with Clary staring at Jace and Simon staring at Clary’s Vein…. I think its vampire time…
I CANT WAIT FOR THE NEXT EPISODE!!!! I’m so excited for vampire simon!
