Logan's distress over his physical regression affects Max profoundly since she has no idea why he has been treating her so shabbily. There is hope though as Logan seeks out a former Manticore doctor that begins treatments to reverse the negative effects caused by those pesky antibodies. But perhaps the most significant plot twist involves Jacy, another X-5 kid, who turns up to assassinate Dr. Vertes. Oh and by the way, Jacy's pregnant.

Changes are afoot for Faetalists as the guys begin implementing tweaks to the podcast. At its core though, the show remains the same as Lost Girl completes its five season run. We'll continue our run of James Cameron's Dark Angel before moving on to the next show, but the actual structure of the new podcast is still somewhat in flux. Look for a Facebook group soon, and for the time being, since the term "fae" referring to a mystical or legendary humanoid beings predates Lost Girl, we'll keep the name "faetalists".

As we enter the long, dark vacuum that is the Season 5 hiatus, we have more questions than answers, but isn't that what all good serial dramas present their viewers? Who wants what? Why end the world? Who will save the day? Bo? Hades? Zeus? Lauren? Tamsin? Maybe Trick can look up something in his book of secrets. Lost Girl Reddit Poll; Who are you rooting for?
