Hi everyone!

Sorry it took me a week to update. Last week was super hectic and I really needed a break for a while. But I'm back now!

Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy the episode. Next 2 episodes are some of my favorite. SO I'm super excited.

On other news, JuliaMed gave me an idea for a new book involving Shadowhunters. I'm not 100% sure if I will do it, but I will be announcing what it is later on if I do. Big thank you and shoutout to JuliaMed.

Thank you all so much,

[JONATHAN'S APARTMENT]

[Jonathan is sitting drinking in front of a fireplace when Clary comes in.]

"Clary?" Jace asks.

"You went to see him?" Izzy asks concerned. Clary shrugs not understanding why she would go see it.

FAKE CLARY: Did you miss me?

JONATHAN: I told you I did.

FAKE CLARY: Next time you want to send a message like that, use e-mail.

JONATHAN: I'll admit it was a little dramatic. But it got your attention, didn't it?

FAKE CLARY: Being back at the Institute and having to play Jace's virginal little girl again, it got real old, real fast. I missed our life together.

[Clary sits on the floor by Jonathan's feet.]

Alec looks at the screen a little weirded out. 'Why is Clary sitting at his feet.'

JONATHAN: Why did you leave me in the first place?

FAKE CLARY: Because I felt like it. We Morgensterns don't like being told what to do.

JONATHAN: That's the first time you've called yourself a Morgenstern.

FAKE CLARY: It's who I am, isn't it?

JONATHAN: What do you say we take this family reunion on the road? We go to Madrid. Drink Tempranillo and visit the Prado.

FAKE CLARY: I would love to visit the Prado! You know, I've always wanted to see those Botch paintings in person.

"'Botch'?" Clary asks confused.

"You would never get that wrong." Luke points out.

JONATHAN: "Botch"? Botch paintings? It's Bosch, you idiot. Clary would never get that wrong.

FAKE CLARY: Whatever, I was close enough.

[Jonathan grabs her by her hair. She gasps hurt.]

JONATHAN: Tell me, are all Seelie Nymphs lent out by the Bone Chandelier so boneheaded?

[He throws her back on the floor and the Seelie glamour falls.]

"Really? He was so desperate he got a Seelie to impersonate you?" Simon asks weirded out.

FAKE CLARY: It's not my fault the words are lame.

JONATHAN: Stick to the script. And never mouth off to me.

FAKE CLARY: It won't happen again. I promise. I'll be better.

[Jonathan walks to the balcony.]

JONATHAN: Don't bother. I was foolish to ever think I could be satisfied with a fake. I suppose I'll just have to get my hands on the real thing.

[He's in New York.]

"Great." Maryse says deadpanned.

[JADE WOLF]

JORDAN: What?

MAIA: The pounding. It's stopped.

JORDAN: Must be after sunrise.

MAIA: We gotta get out of here now.

[Maia unbarricades the door.]

"Careful." Simon says warily.

JORDAN: Careful. Careful. Just because we don't hear anything doesn't mean Heidi didn't leave more vamps to finish us off.

MAIA: And you're sure she's behind the attack?

JORDAN: I guarantee it. She set me up to provoke the vamps at the DuMort. It's exactly what she wanted.

MAIA: It's a risk I'm willing to take. [she tries to open the door, but it doesn't budge.] Damn it.

JORDAN: They must have barricaded us inside. Where's your phone?

[Maia pulls out her phone. It beeps.]

MAIA: No service.

JORDAN: Where's Simon? He's gonna worry if he doesn't hear from you.

MAIA: I don't think so. We broke up.

Maia and Simon smile at each other.

JORDAN: All right, uh, we just have to sit tight. Someone will come for us eventually.

MAIA: Who? My whole pack was just slaughtered, Luke stepped down, and the Jade Wolf is freaking closed on Mondays! Hello? Is anybody out there? Hello?

[Maia starts to bang on the doors. She turns back to Jordan and starts breathing heavily.]

JORDAN: I forgot you're claustrophobic.

"You're claustrophobic?" Alec asks.

Maia nods a little embarrassed. "No, no. Don't be embarrassed. We've all got our fears. Jace over there is afraid of ducks." Alec adds.

Jace glares at his parabatai when everyone laughs at him. "Oh. And you're perfect Mr. I scream like a girl when I see a spider?"

Alec sputters. "I do not!"

"Darling, as much as I hate to agree with Chase. You do scream when you see a spider." Magnus says. "Adorably, of course." He adds when he sees Alec's pout. Magnus kisses him. Alec then pulls Magnus on his lap.

Everyone laughs at the entire situation, but Jace starts to gag when Magnus and Alec start to kiss. "My name is Jace." Magnus just waves him off.

MAIA: I swear I'm gonna wolf out if we don't get out of here.

JORDAN: Try to relax. [They take deep breaths together. Maia calms down.] Come on. Breathe. Everything's gonna be okay. It'll be okay.

[JACE'S ROOM, INSTITUTE]

[Clary is looking at her arm. Suddenly there's a hand on her shoulder. She jumps slightly, but it's only Jace.]

JACE: Good morning.

CLARY: Hi. Morning.

JACE: What's wrong? Is it bed head? Or is it morning breath?

CLARY: Wait. Is the Jace Herondale feeling insecure?

Alec is now laughing hysterically. Izzy doesn't take that long to join him.

JACE: Maybe a little. He has the most beautiful woman in the world in his bed.

CLARY: I am guessing that is not the first time you've used that line.

JACE: Actually, it is. I've wanted to wake up next to you for so long, and now...

[They lie back down on the bed and kiss]

JACE: Hey.

CLARY: Hmm?

JACE: I was thinking today, maybe we could do something to celebrate your homecoming.

CLARY: What did you have in mind?

JACE: How about we keep it a surprise, huh?

[Clary chuckles and they continue to kiss]

Alec sends his fake gag through the parabatai bond. He smiles innocently when Jace glares at him.

[ALEC'S OFFICE, INSTITUTE]

[Alec is looking at one of the books.]

ALEC: You found all this in Elliot's book shop?

LUKE: Yeah, he kept detailed records on the whereabouts of all sorts of Shadowhunter relics. If you're looking for the sword Jonathan's after, it's a good place to start.

ALEC: All right. Well, we'll get a team on this right away. We'll call if we find anything.

[Alec walks back to his desk. As Luke is leaving, he sees Izzy walk in.]

LUKE: Cool.

IZZY: Oh, hey!

LUKE: Hey, Isabelle.

IZZY: So, I was thinking about what Sentry Greenlaw said before he was murdered.

"Isabelle…" Maryse warns.

ALEC: Isabelle, what did Mom say about meddling in Clave affairs?

IZZY: He said he had information on what was going on at the Gard and was killed for it. Aren't you interested in knowing what he had to say?

ALEC: Of course. But, there are...

IZZY: His last word was "inside." And I think he was being literal. I want to do an autopsy.

ALEC: Don't you think Jia might notice if we return a body that's already been cut open?

IZZY: I'll be stealthy. This is important, Alec. It's our responsibility to find out what's really going on here.

ALEC: Twenty-four hours. And then I'm reporting it to the Clave.

[Izzy smiles.]

"You're a softie." Izzy whispers to her brother. Alec just looks at her like 'duh! But I have a reputation.'

[LORENZO'S MANSION]

[Lorenzo is doing magical acrobatics? When Magnus enters. Magnus sighs and rolls his eyes. Finally Lorenzo stops midair and lands in front of Magnus.]

Everyone rolls their eyes.

LORENZO: Is that you, Bane? I didn't see you all the way down there. So sorry to hear about your, well, embarrassing situation. I hear you're magic-challenged.

Alec clenches his fists.

MAGNUS: I hear you've forbidden every warlock in the city from helping me.

LORENZO: I have. And now you've come to me.

MAGNUS: So what? Do you want me to grovel?

LORENZO: That would be a start, especially after assaulting me.

MAGNUS: That was inexcusable.

[Lorenzo starts to prepare a drink.]

LORENZO: I did plan on punishing you for that. But the fates have beaten me to the punch. So, how can I be of help?

MAGNUS: Oh, come on, Lorenzo. You know why I came here.

LORENZO: Yes, I do. But I want to hear you say it. And it couldn't hurt to use the word "please."

MAGNUS: Please, Lorenzo, will you help me get my magic back?

[Lorenzo chuckles]

LORENZO: So, how's mundane life treating you? Must be quite mundane. Doing laundry, taking the subway... But it gets deeper than that, doesn't it?

MAGNUS: Are you going to help me or not?

LORENZO: As a matter of fact, I am. For a price.

[Lorenzo sits on a throne.]

MAGNUS: Anything you want.

"Magnus!" Alec says. "Don't say that! He'll take advantage of you."

LORENZO: Not a very clever way to start a negotiation, Bane.

MAGNUS: Any material possession you want, it's yours. Without my magic, you can't imagine what it's like.

LORENZO: I may not, but, as High Warlock, it is my job to protect you.

[He gets up.]

MAGNUS: Thank you, Lorenzo.

LORENZO: You're, of course, aware that there are risks.

MAGNUS: Yeah.

LORENZO: I can give you the transfusion of magic, but whether your body accepts it...

MAGNUS: I can take care of myself.

LORENZO: Very well.

[Lorenzo starts the transfusion and chants something in Latin.]

LORENZO: One top-of-the-line dose of High Warlock magic. Go ahead. Take it for a spin.

[Magnus starts to test out the magic.]

Magnus smiles a little more at the sight of him with magic.

MAGNUS: I won't forget this, Lorenzo.

LORENZO: No, I imagine you won't. [Magnus starts to walk away.] Before you go, aren't you curious about my price?

[ICE RINK]

"You brought me to an ice rink?" Clary asks.

[Clary and Jace are walking through the locker room.]

CLARY: Breaking and entering, how romantic.

JACE: This way we'll be on our own.

CLARY: You never told me you knew how to ice skate.

JACE: Well, I don't. Yet. I mean, I was kinda hoping you could show me how it's done.

CLARY: Well, it's been a while since I've been on the ice. What gave you this idea?

JACE: Well, there's a photo on your dresser of you and your mom. You were at Rockefeller Center, and you look really happy in your little skate costume, and I knew that's something I had to do for you.

Clary smiles and Izzy aww's. Simon laughs a little, but stops when he sees the glare from his best friend, girlfriend, and best friend's boyfriend.

[Clary looks at him lovingly.]

CLARY: That's so thoughtful.

JACE: Okay, what's your size?

CLARY: Uh, six.

[Jace looks through the skate sizes.]

JACE: Great.

[JADE WOLF]

[BREATHING SHAKILY]

MAIA: Has the bleeding stopped? You're shivering.

JORDAN: I'm just a little cold. [Maia lifts his shirt and sees the wound. The silver spreads.] I was stabbed with silver. I didn't want you to worry. [Jordan chuckles]

"Silver?" Luke asks alarmed. He may not like the kid for what he did to Maia, but she still seems to like him.

MAIA: No, Jordan, this is...this is serious. If you don't get treatment you could die. We have to get you to the Institute now.

JORDAN: The Praetor is the only place that can treat silver poisoning.

MAIA: Is anybody out there? [Maia starts to sob] Somebody help us!

JORDAN: Maia. [They are both breathing deeply again.]

MAIA: I'm calm. I'm calm. [She gives him her jacket.] Look, at least take my jacket. Keep you warm

JORDAN: It's OK.

MAIA: Until we can get you to the Praetor.

JORDAN: It's okay.

MAIA: Seriously? Now is not the time to be a gentleman. Just take the frickin' jacket. - [CHUCKLES]

JORDAN: You know, I have a... a trick I use when I'm in a bad situation. I think of a time when I'm happy, and I transport myself there. You should try it. The first thing that comes to your head. And go.

MAIA: It's embarrassing.

JORDAN: There's no need to be embarrassed. It's just me and a bunch of moldy fortune cookies.

MAIA: Okay. Well, it was this night that I... got into this huge fight with my parents. So, I just stole my dad's car and drove off. I didn't know where I was going. I just knew I needed to get away. Then the car started making all these weird noises and it died, and I was stranded right in the middle of the Cape May Expressway.

Maia smiles a little at the memory.

JORDAN: Okay, we were going for a "happy memory", remember? [CHUCKLES]

MAIA: But it was. Because I called you and you came. What's your memory?

JORDAN: I'm down at the beach, getting ready for a surf. And right when I'm about to get into the water, I see this girl reading a book and freezing her butt off.

[They both smile at the memory.]

Simon puts his hand on her shoulder. "When we get back, you need to tell him the truth." Maia nods agreeing with him, but she's suddenly nervous at the thought.

[SKATING RINK]

[Jace and Clary are skating. Jace is struggling so he's holding Clary hand.]

Alec starts to laugh. He hides his face in Magnus' shoulder.

CLARY: You got it?

JACE: Yeah.

CLARY: You got it.

JACE: Yeah.

CLARY: Okay, now let go.

JACE: I got it.

CLARY: There you go. Whoops! Let me help you. There you go. You're doing great.

[Clary holds Jace's hand. She's skating backwards.]

JACE: Oh, yeah?

CLARY: I couldn't stay on my feet until at least my third try.

JACE: That kinda makes me feel better.

CLARY: I was six years old at the time, but still...

JACE: You're making fun of me.

CLARY: No! I'm just saying you are actually ahead of the curve.

JACE: Ahead of the... I was born ahead of the curve. Clary, I'm just, trying not to show off 'cause I know this is your thing, so... Whoa! [Clary chuckles] Whoa.

[Jace keeps tripping.]

CLARY: Well, please, by all means, don't hold back.

[Jace lets go of Clary's hands and skates for a bit. He falls down.]

Everyone starts to laugh.

JACE: Ow!

CLARY: You want me to kiss it and make it better?

JACE: You know, yeah. Yeah, I think that'd be nice.

[She kneels down, and they kiss.]

JACE: Hmm. It's not me, by the way. It's the skates.

CLARY: I see.

JACE: I'm pretty sure they're too big. I'll go get a new pair. You'll see. It's gonna be completely different.

CLARY: Whatever you say.

JACE: Yeah, I do. I say.

[Jace leaves the rink. Clary starts to skate on her own.]

CLARY: Can't wait. [she chuckles]

[IN THE LOCKER ROOM]

[Jace is slightly limping. He throws the skates on a bench, but is quickly pushed up against a locker. Jonathan has a seraph blade at his throat. Jace starts to struggle against the hold.]

Some people jump at the sudden appearance.

JONATHAN: I wouldn't if I were you. You hurt me, you hurt Clary, remember? When Lilith brought me back, she brought me back stronger.

JACE: So, what are you gonna do? You gonna kill me?

JONATHAN: No. If I killed you, Clary would never forgive me.

[Jonathan knocks Jace out. His eyes are completely black. He glamours himself as Jace. Jonathan goes to the rink and sees Clary skating. He clears his throat to get her attention.]

JONATHAN: Clary, bad news. The, uh, owner's coming back. I think we should beat it.

CLARY: But you were getting so good.

JONATHAN: Don't worry. There's somewhere else I want to take you today. Our day's not over.

Clary and Jace grip each other's hands nervously. Izzy, Simon, Alec, and Luke glance at Clary nervously.

[INSTITUTE LIBRARY]

[Underhill and Alec are looking through a pile of books.]

UNDERHILL: We're really supposed to read through every page until we find a mention of the Morning Star Sword? There's got to be a faster way.

[There is a rumble and Magnus walks in and starts to use his magic to find the information.]

MAGNUS: I can help speed things up. Hmm. All the pages referencing the Morning Star Sword.

Izzy snickers at Alec's face.

[ALEC'S OFFICE]

[Magnus and Alec walk into Alec's office. Alec looks at Magnus like 'wtf?']

ALEC: Magnus, how did you get your magic back?

MAGNUS: I got some help from Lorenzo.

ALEC: Lorenzo? Why would he help you?

MAGNUS: He's the High Warlock. It's his job. Will you help me look through these?

[Magnus is looking through the pages.]

ALEC: I feel like there's something you're not telling me.

Alec and Magnus hold each other close. This isn't the time for another fight.

MAGNUS: I thought you'd be happy for me.

ALEC: I am, but...

MAGNUS: A-ha! Here it is. A list of transactions involving the Morning Star sword. And according to this ledger, it ended up in the hands of Liam Janssens.

ALEC: That doesn't sound like a Shadowhunter name.

MAGNUS: No, he's a mundane and very wealthy. Collector from Antwerp. Apparently, he was so obsessed with the Sword that he was buried with it. Hmm. Fancy a trip to Belgium?

ALEC: So we can go grave-robbing?

MAGNUS: Sounds less classy when you put it that way. [Magnus opens a portal] Feels good to be back.

[Magnus walks through the portal. Alec waits a second then has a 'whatever' look and follows him.]

[STREETS]

[Clary and Jonathan (as Jace) are walking down a street. Clary stops him suddenly.]

CLARY: You're not going to tell me where we're going?

JONATHAN: You'll like it. I promise.

CLARY: Jace, I have to tell you something.

JONATHAN: Yeah, sure. Anything.

CLARY: Last night, Jonathan sent me a message.

JONATHAN: Really?

CLARY: It was through our rune. He carved "I miss you" into my arm.

JONATHAN: Are you okay?

CLARY: I'm fine. Yeah, it's nothing an Iratze couldn't take care of. But I didn't want to keep it from you.

JONATHAN: Well, I can't really blame him for being crazy about you.

"I would never say that." Jace points out.

CLARY: [Clary looks at Jace suspiciously.] Jace, the guy kidnapped me and held me hostage.

JONATHAN: But he did it out of love. I'm sorry. You're right. That must've been very traumatic. Why didn't you tell me sooner?

"He better not do anything." Jace warns.

CLARY: I wanted to, but... Jace, things have been so perfect between us. [she grabs his hand.] I didn't want to spoil the mood. You're not angry, are you?

JONATHAN: Not at all. I just wanna make sure you're safe. You activated your anti-tracking rune, right?

CLARY: Mm-hmm. Double-checked it this morning.

JONATHAN: Good. Then no one can hurt you. And if they try, I'll be here to protect you.

[Jace and Clary walk off]

[HUNTER'S MOON]

[Luke is on the phone when Simon walks in.]

LUKE: Right. Uh-huh. Okay, thanks.

SIMON: Hey! Have you seen Jordan? He went out for the hunt for Heidi. I haven't heard from him since.

[Luke and Simon sit at a table]

LUKE: That was the Praetor. Apparently, Jordan lost his cool on a raid at the Hotel DuMort and went AWOL. No one's seen him since.

SIMON: We have to keep looking. Is there something the police can do?

LUKE: Um, I don't have too many friends on the force right now. They've had eyes on me ever since Ollie's mom was killed. I can't go anywhere without an escort. I bet my phone's tapped.

"Then why were you on the phone with the Praetor?" Maryse asks. Luke shrugs. Robert sighs loudly at the interaction trying to get Maryse's attention back to him. It didn't work.

[A few detectives are watching Luke and Simon from a car outside the bar.]

SIMON: I don't know about your phone, but I have an idea how to deal with those cops.

[JADE WOLF]

[Maia and Jordan are cuddling. Jordan is still wearing Maia's jacket.]

MAIA: You know, I never got to thank you.

JORDAN: For what?

MAIA: For saving my life. That vampire was gonna gut me if you didn't get in his way.

JORDAN: It's the least I could do for getting you into this mess.

MAIA: It wasn't your fault.

JORDAN: I meant for turning you into a wolf in the first place.

MAIA: We're supposed to be thinking happy thoughts, remember? Besides, I... I know you didn't mean it. So, there's no point in getting into that right now.

JORDAN: Abandoning you after I turned you... I'll never forgive myself for that. We don't have to talk about it. I just want it on record. [He breathes shakily] Just in case...

Maia has tears in her eyes, "Jordan…"

MAIA: Jordan, stop.

JORDAN: It's okay. I feel lucky, in a way. I only ever wanted to be by your side.

MAIA: Jordan. Hey.

JORDAN: I wish I could take it all back. You deserve to be so happy, Maia.

[Jordan's voice goes off in a whisper as he closes his eyes. He looks dead.]

"Jordan?!" Maia yells at the screen.

MAIA: Jordan... Jordan? Hey. Hey, I forgive you, okay? I was just confused and sad, and mad at myself for loving you. But it doesn't matter now. Jordan. [she sniffles] Jordan, you'll get through this. [she starts to cry]

[PROMENADE]

[Jonathan (still as Jace) and Clary walk to a flower booth. Jonathan steals one and gives it to Clary.]

CLARY: Thank you, but I don't think you're supposed to take those.

JONATHAN: There was no one there to stop me.

CLARY: [she chuckles] You some kind of outlaw now?

JONATHAN: You're right. I'm sorry. [he chuckles] I think I just forget myself around you. [he kisses Clary] What's wrong?

Jace clenches his fists as others faces turn to disgust. They were siblings. That's just plain wrong.

CLARY: Nothing, nothing. I'm, um, I'm... I'm, uh, I'm light-headed. I must be dehydrated.

[Clary sits down on a bench]

JONATHAN: Oh, I'm so stupid. It's me. I've been running you ragged all over the city.

CLARY: Maybe you can get us something to drink.

JONATHAN: Of course. Stay right there.

[Clary pricks her finger on a thorn from the rose. She sees "Jace" flinch and suck on his thumb. Jonathan looks at a mirror and his reflection shows his real face.]

"Good thinking." Alec tells her.

"Thank the Angel you figured it out." Izzy adds.

[INSTITUTE, INFIRMARY]

[Izzy is doing an autopsy when her phone rings. Cut to who's talking.]

IZZY: Clary?

CLARY: Izzy, I'm on the Promenade with Jonathan. He's glamoured himself to look like Jace.

IZZY: Are you okay?

CLARY: I'm fine. He doesn't know I know. But Jace has gotta be in danger. We were at an ice rink in Chelsea. Jonathan must have ambushed him there.

IZZY: Just sit tight. I'll find Jace. Then I'm coming for you.

CLARY: I'll deactivate my anti-tracking rune.

IZZY: Good idea. Once we find you, you can use your Somnus rune.

CLARY: That'll only sedate him for a minute.

IZZY: That's enough time to take him into custody.

[Jonathan walks up to Clary with water bottles in hand.]

JONATHAN: Who's that?

CLARY: Uh, Alec.

"Using me as an excuse, Fray?" Alec asks with a smile. Clary smiles innocently back.

[INSTITUTE]

IZZY: [checking her phone] Clary?

[PROMENADE]

CLARY: Uh, he's checking on a report. But I told him about your surprise, and he said to take the rest of the day off.

JONATHAN: I guess I owe him one. Let's go. Come on.

[They walk off. Clary looks worried.]

[GRAVEYARD]

[Alec and Magnus come out of the portal. Magnus inhales.]

MAGNUS: New York to Antwerp in 14 seconds. There really isn't a better way to travel.

[Magnus uses his magic to light all the torches leading to the tomb. Alec and Magnus walk toward the tomb.]

ALEC: Let's just grab the Sword and get out of here. Don't touch anything you don't have to.

MAGNUS: Alexander, surely, you're not squeamish about seeing a dead body.

ALEC: No. I'm squeamish about disturbing a man's grave.

"Tut, tut. Same thing." Magnus tells him.

MAGNUS: Mmm. [Magnus opens the lid roughly]

ALEC: Easy.

MAGNUS: Relax.

[Magnus tries to get the sword out, but it is stuck. He finally gives up and uses magic.]

ALEC: [he sighs] So, it's the Morning Star sword?

MAGNUS: [he blows the dirt off the blade] Nope.

ALEC: What?

MAGNUS: The sheath appears to be authentic. Onyx-plated silver. But the blade, not so much. It's a fake. Someone beat us to it.

ALEC: Jonathan?

MAGNUS: I don't think so. Judging from the cobwebs, it's been at least years.

ALEC: There's an inscription. [He reads the inscription in Latin]

MAGNUS: "Sword of Lucifer, whose might will drive the fallen..."

ALEC: "From the many realms of Hell."

MAGNUS: With the real sword, Jonathan can summon an army of demons.

"We must alert the Clave!" Robert panics.

"Dad. We will, but we can't right now." Alec assures his father.

[OUTSIDE THE HUNTER'S MOON]

[Luke is seen walking out of the Hunter's Moon.]

MENDEZ: He's on the move.

[They try to start the engine. It sputters. They get out of the car to see what happened. Simon speeds away from behind their car. The tailpipe is folded.]

Luke looks at Simon pointedly.

GREER: What the...

LUKE: Now, where'd you learn how to do that?

SIMON: [he scoffs] I've seen a lot of movies.

[Luke chuckles and they both walk away.]

[ICE RINK]

IZZY: Jace. Oh, my God.

[Izzy finds Jace unconscious and tied up with tape. She tries to shake him awake, but then decides to use his iratze. Finally, he regains consciousness. Izzy removes the tape from his mouth.]

IZZY: By the Angel.

JACE: Where is she? Where's Clary?

IZZY: She's with Jonathan. He glamoured himself to look like you.

JACE: Does she know?

IZZY: Yes, but we have to move quickly. They're heading north to Harlem.

JACE: Harlem. There's a huge ley line junction up there. He must be trying to get her to his apartment. If he gets her inside...

IZZY: That's not gonna happen. Let's go.

"She's not that naïve. She'll figure it out." Maia says.

[MAGNUS' APARTMENT]

[Magnus and Alec portal in. Magnus heads to the apothecary and he starts to pack.]

MAGNUS: Oh, okay, let's be quick. I have a couple of books that I want to bring that might mention the sword. And it couldn't hurt to take along a few apothecary supplies.

ALEC: Whoa, whoa. What's with all the packing? We can come back after we check in at the Institute.

MAGNUS: Actually, I don't think that's possible.

ALEC: Why not?

MAGNUS: When Lorenzo gave me my magic back, he did so at a price.

ALEC: Oh, my God. He asked you for your...

MAGNUS: Apartment.

"What?!" Magnus and Alec scream.

ALEC: Why?

MAGNUS: I wasn't in a position to refuse.

ALEC: I'll kill him.

MAGNUS: Alexander, no.

ALEC: He took advantage of you. He stole your home.

MAGNUS: He didn't steal it. I gave it to him. And if I had to, I'd do it again.

ALEC: I don't understand.

MAGNUS: I've had many, many happy memories in this apartment. But at the end of the day, it's just a thing. But my magic, it makes me feel alive. Yes, I can do fabulous tricks, jet around the world, help the people I love. But more than that...magic connects me to everything around me. Without magic, I feel like a stranger. The world keeps on going...and it's like... It's like I'm not a part of it. It's like, suddenly, I don't matter.

ALEC: Magnus, of course you matter.

MAGNUS: I know. I know, Alexander. Everyone does. But without magic, I can't feel it. This apartment is not important. I have you and I have my magic. Truly, that's enough. Please, try and be happy for me. Hmm?

[Magnus puts his hand on Alec's cheek. Alec nods, but does so begrudgingly.]

Alec pulls Magnus closer to his chest. He pecks Magnus' neck and whispers 'I love you'.

[JADE WOLF]

SIMON: Oh, no.

LUKE: It's a massacre.

[Simon can hear Maia sobbing using his vamp hearing.]

SIMON: Maia? Maia? [he speeds away. He rips the door off the hinges.]

MAIA: Simon.

SIMON: Is he...

MAIA: Alive. Barely.

"Oh! Thank God." Maia whispers.

SIMON: We have to get him up.

[STREETS OF HARLEM]

CLARY: Where are we going? Why all the secrecy?

JONATHAN: If you really want me to, I'll ruin the surprise. There's a gallery I've read about full of artists I think you'll like. It's up here.

CLARY: Hey, uh... What's the rush?

JONATHAN: There's no rush.

CLARY: Well, I just... It's so rare we get to spend any time alone together. Hmm?

JONATHAN: Are you okay?

CLARY: Perfect.

JONATHAN: You seem a little on edge.

CLARY: Maybe I'm just worried that I won't like your taste in art.

[Clary sees Izzy, Jace, and their team behind Jonathan. She tackles him to the ground. He reveals himself.]

JONATHAN: I thought we were enjoying our time together.

IZZY: Clary! Now! Clary!

[Everything happens in slow motion. Clary hesitates and Jonathan smiles, his gaze curious and speeds off.]

"What happened?" Alec asks confused.

Everyone looks at the screen in confusion.

JACE: Are you okay? You had him, Clary.

CLARY: I know.

JACE: What happened?

CLARY: I don't know.

[JADE WOLF]

[Maia and Simon are carrying Jordan.]

SIMON: Who did this?

MAIA: We're pretty sure Heidi's behind the attack. She sent a bunch of vamps with silver blades. We have to get him to the Praetor. They're the only ones who can save him.

SIMON: Okay.

[Luke checks Russell's pulse. He closes Russell's eyes.]

LUKE: Beati Bellicosi.

SIMON: Luke. Luke, are you coming?

LUKE: [looks like he's in some sort of trance] I have to finish the rites.

[The police sirens are wailing, and the lights light up the Jade Wolf]

LUKE: Get him outta here. I'll take care of the cops.

SIMON: We have to contact the Institute. We have...

LUKE: Simon, I said I'll handle it. Get him to the Praetor now!

"No! The police will just find more dirt on you." Maryse says scared for her boyfriend. Clary nods along with Maryse.

SIMON: Okay. Get the door.

[Maia and Simon leave through the back door.]

GREER: What the...

MENDEZ: Oh, my God. On the ground, Garroway. Hands on your head, face down.

[Mendez points her gun at him. Luke follows her orders, but Greer pushes him on the ground roughly and cuffs him.]

[MAGNUS' APARTMENT (because I refuse to let it be Lorenzo's)]

[Lorenzo enters his apartment. Alec is waiting for him.]

ALEC: You really are despicable, aren't you?

LORENZO: Ah, Mr. Lightwood. What a pleasant surprise. I didn't know you came with this apartment.

Alec scoffs.

ALEC: Oh, that's funny.

LORENZO: It really is a beautiful space wouldn't you agree? The perfect Brooklyn pied-à-terre.

ALEC: You're the High Warlock. You're supposed to protect people like Magnus, not exploit them.

LORENZO: As a matter of fact, I did help Magnus. There's nothing to say that I shouldn't be compensated for it.

ALEC: I've seen your mansion. You don't need this apartment. You just wanted to humiliate him.

LORENZO: Yes, I did. And the fact that he sent his little boyfriend to plead his case tells me I more than succeeded.

ALEC: I'm the head of the New York Institute. Don't speak to me like that.

Magnus starts to get uncomfortable (in the best way ever). Alec was using his head of the institute voice.

LORENZO: You're right. Perhaps this is getting unnecessarily heated.

ALEC: I want you to give Magnus his apartment back. And I'll make you a deal, a fair one. One not beneath your dignity as a leader.

LORENZO: Let me tell you something about being a leader. When a subordinate comes to question your judgment and launches a fireball in your face, it's your duty to put him in line. Your boyfriend still hasn't accepted that I'm the High Warlock now. Not him. If I had to break his spirit to teach him that, so be it.

ALEC: [he gets in Lorenzo's personal space] Enjoy this position while it lasts. The Clave doesn't take kindly to conniving, unethical Downworld leaders. You will slip up. And when you do, I'll be waiting there to take you down.

"I never thought you would side with the Clave on Downworlders." Izzy tells her brother.

"Neither did I, until I met him." Alec says glaring at the sight of Lorenzo.

[HUNTER'S MOON]

BARTENDER: Another, Mr. Bane?

MAGNUS: Oh, no, dear. I believe I am perfectly content. Hmm. [Magnus makes a 100-dollar bill appear. He gives it to the bartender.]

BARTENDER: Wow. Thanks.

MAGNUS: What can I say? It's a day I will always remember. [CHUCKLES]

BARTENDER: Me, too.

[Magnus steps out of the Hunter's Moon and creates a portal.]

MAGNUS: Institute, here I come.

[Magnus is about to step through when he feels something on his face. He has a nosebleed.]

"What happened?" Alec asks concerned.

"Nothing. Just a nosebleed." Magnus lies.

"I would believe you if your face didn't say the opposite." Alec tells his boyfriend.

"I'll tell you in private, later." Magnus says.

[INFIRMARY, INSTITUTE]

[Izzy collects something from the dead body and stares at it.]

Izzy looks at it curiously.

[CLARY'S ROOM, INSTITUTE]

[Clary is sitting on her bed. Jace enters. He sits next to her.]

JACE: Alec's on his way back with an update about the Morning Star sword.

CLARY: Can't believe I let him go.

JACE: Well, try not to beat yourself up. I couldn't kill Valentine, remember?

CLARY: That's different. Valentine raised you. I didn't even have to kill him. I just... I had to draw a stupid rune and... I couldn't.

JACE: When Jonathan was disguised as me, did he... Did he do anything to you?

CLARY: He kissed me. I feel so violated. I should've known. I... [she sighs]

Jace hugs Clary tighter.

JACE: We're gonna make this right, Clary. I swear on the Angel. I swear on us.

CLARY: Why us?

JACE: Because there isn't anything I believe in more.

[Jace leans in for a kiss, but Clary leans back at the last minute.]

CLARY: I'm sorry.

JACE: Don't be. I'm gonna go, okay?

CLARY: No. Please stay.

JACE: Of course.

[JONATHAN'S APARTMENT]

[Jonathan is staring at the fire in the fireplace.]

JONATHAN: Ready to play again? I've been practicing.

SEELIE: Not now. You're not still angry with me, are you?

JONATHAN: Actually, I'm in an excellent mood. I had a breakthrough with my sister. And I have a feeling the real Clary will be joining me much sooner than expected.

"What is he talking about?" Clary asks. No one answered her question.

Everyone was exhausted by all the information thrown at them. The doors to the room they stayed in before reappeared. Everyone said goodnight to one another and left, sleeping as soon as their heads hit their pillows.
