In tonight's episode of Shadowhunters, Alec sends Jace and Clary to meet with the Seelie Queen as she'll only meet with "Valentine's Experiments." Simon tags along and while there, major drama unfolds after a kiss is manipulated by the queen. Meanwhile, Alec is trying to make the Downworlders feel welcomed at The Institute and Luke is on a mission that brings him face to face with Valentine.
The other storylines in the episode work well too. Raphael, Sebastian, Izzy, and Luke have compelling scenes and progression in their storylines. Matthew Daddario is especially strong as he showcases Alec's leadership side, making tough calls and sending people out on missions. But most importantly - Maryse is starting to get likable. Never thought I'd see the day, but she's finally making amends and isn't as awful as she's been. Overall, I'm really excited for everyone to see this episode. It's a little more character driven than previous ones, while also having some great action and call outs to the book series.
Extra Teasers:
-"You read?" "Why does everyone find that so hard to believe?"
-Murder Tree!
-There's a fun casting choice made regarding the Seelie Queen
-Sebastian's scenes with both Izzy and Jace are awesome
-One character is distrustful of Sebastian
-Luke gets extra serious and shady
