LOST GIRL – Episode 505 – It’s Your Lucky Fae – SPOILERS ⁓
Tamsin and Bo
Nobody knows what to get Bo for her birthday so Lauren (Zoie Palmer) and Tamsin (Rachel Skarsten) get her a plot device, a magical stuffed cat that is purported to bring luck to its owner (luck that turns to have hidden cost attached). This leads to some of the best Anna Silk scenes in the series as she gradually transforms into a cat.
Kat (Sophia Troop) distracts Mark with her tongue
Someone actually named Kat (Sophia Troop) distracts Mark (Luke Bilyk) with her tongue while Iris (Shanice Banton), steals Trick’s ledger. Heratio, aka Hera, ends up with Trick’s ledger, and her motives are so far unclear.
Cassie (Vanessa Matsui) has dinner with Heratio (Noam Jenkins). whom she met through an online dating service. He seems nice enough to warrant an invite back to her place. He leaves after kissing her goodnight, and Cassie is happy for about a minute, then begins screaming. The following day, Cassie’s apartment has blood everywhere, and she is nowhere to be found.
A captive Cassie speed dials Bo by accident, and Bo decides to use her newfound favourable luck to locate the missing oracle. She blindfolds herself and hops behind the wheel of the Camaro. Tamsin and Lauren are reluctant to ride with a blind driver, but Tamsin decides that she trusts Bo enough to do it, and Lauren won’t be outdone by Tamsin, so both of them get in the car, and a blindfolded Bo takes them for a ride. Like most 1969 North American automobiles, Bo’s car is not equipped with seat belts.
A blindfolded Bo goes for a drive.
Later, during a bar fight with Kat’s boyfriend (Michael Dufays), Mark inadvertently causes Lauren to get a face full of birthday cake. Lauren does not believe in good luck charms, hence the cat conveys bad luck upon her, but none of ill-fortune conferred is very serious.
The curse of the cat is dispelled by transferring it to one of Cassie’s less pleasant relatives, Seymour (Dax Ravina), who was last seen in “Dead Lucky” (Episode 105), and in the end, Bo finally gets a decent birthday present, a gift-wrapped Tamsin. Now that’s the sort of thing a succubus needs.
