For such an ugly and despicable species, they do make beautiful things.

Where is the girl?

Right as I finished, the Shadowhunters...

they fought me off.

Took her with them.

(SONOROUS VIBRATION)

How could you let that happen?

I was overpowered.

(GRUNT)

If they identify her possession, they will be able to track me.

They will try and stop Jonathan's resurrection

- before it even begins.

- I will not let that happen.

No, you won't.

Nothing...

will stop me from bringing my son back.

For thousands of years, I was unable to bear a child...

but then Valentine came to me and he asked for my blood for his unborn son.

But I knew...

that my boy would be far too powerful for a mere Shadowhunter to raise.

So he eventually sent him to me...

and I loved him with all my heart.

And I never knew if he loved me back, until you k*lled him...

and he called for me with his final breath.

You will bring me disciples so that my son can be reborn.

And then I will destroy you...

like you destroyed him.

But first...

take care of the girl, before it's too late.

Listen, you need to swear to me that you haven't told anyone else about this.

Not yet, but Jace...

Clary, we've been through this.

You compelled the one wish from Raziel.

To the Clave, that's the worst offense possible.

And I don't care if they throw me in the Gard.

OK?

I am not going to lose you again.

I promise you, I'm fine.

Sarah's her twin sister.

If the Owl's M.O. is consistent with his previous victims, Morgan is being driven to k*ll someone she loves.

ALEC: She's the th mundane this week who's become possessed.

The Owl is busy, and unique.

In a typical possession, the body's cells wouldn't be affected.

But Morgan's are?

Her cells are no longer mundane.

They're demonic.

Kicking Simon out?

That was your Alpha move?

Yes now.

You think I like this any more than you do?

Believe me, this was not an easy decision.

Simon didn't do anything wrong.

It's not about right or wrong.

It's about protecting the pack.

Simon almost k*lled Glenn.

And did you hear about Raphael?

They both tried to att*ck him.

Clearly Simon's new power, whatever it is, only kicks in when someone tries to hurt him.

Do we know that?

And even if we did, how am I supposed to keep the pack from doing something stupid and getting themselves blown to pieces?

You tell them to stop acting like prejudiced dicks.

It's none of their business if I want to date a vampire.

You tell them to leave Simon alone.

And have you got some magic fairy dust that I can sprinkle around and make that happen?

We're talking about vampires and werewolves.

Thousands of years of hate.

It's not pretty, but that's just the way it is.

I can't believe those words just came out of your mouth.

Are you seriously telling me there's no use in trying to change bigoted behavior?

I'm all for change, but the kind of change you're talking about takes time and open minds.

And right now, I'm short on both.

So you're abandoning Simon?

I don't abandon people I care about.
