Lost Girl Season 5 Episode 5 Review: Its Your Lucky Fae

In "It's Your Lucky Fae" Bo gets some unusual birthday presents. Grandpaps Tricks gives her Alexander the Fae's severed finger. Maybe that's a good gift if you're a fae? I'm not sure. Lauren and Tamsin forgot Bo's birthday so they do the mad scramble to buy gifts. Tamsin gets Bo a stuffed cat which is supposed to bring good luck. Daddy Hades also sends a mysterious box. Who knew Hell had a gift shop?

Meanwhile Cassie the Oracle goes on a blind date (thanks to online dating site FaeDate) with disastrous consequences. Dyson and newly found sonny Mark get to know each other. Vex is along for the ride.

Cassie Girl, If He Seems Normal That Means He's Really A Psychopath

It turns out Tamsin's gift is turning Bo into a cat. She goes on a date with Horatio (who is the last guy that Cassie went out with) and ends up with furry hands (I'm sure there's a sex joke in there somewhere) so leaves early. Bo tries to nuzzle everyone nearby. She sleeps in a box and bats at objects. Too funny!

Anyone Know Where I Can Score Some Catnip?

At the Dal Mark is getting busy with two girls. One has a very interesting tongue. Hmmm. The other reads Trick's ledger while Mark is otherwise occupied.

Off Bo, Lauren and Tamsin go in search of Cassie. Bo drives the car blindfolded. I'm not sure that's a good idea. Lauren and Tamsin bicker because they're each jealous of the other's relationship with Bo. Lauren is having a run of bad luck as she keeps trying to make a cake for Bo but it never works out. Bo falls through a hole in the woods and finds the missing oracles (sans eyes). Ekkk! It turns out the oracles scooped out their own eyes because they couldnt take the painful visions of seeing everything since the beginning of time.

Seymour the soul eater (Cassie's cousin) eventually sucks up the cat spirit so Bo is free. We learn that Horatio is actually the dead guy from the elevator. His real name Kevin. Is the sister Kevin references the mysterious Elizabeth? At the end of the episode Kevin ends up with Trick's ledger and the oracles' eyeballs. He's very interested in Bo (like everyone else on this show).

This Is What I Want For My Birthday Too

Speaking of Bo, after a long day she settles down with her birthday cupcake. Tamsin says she has one more gift and discards her robe to reveal she's wrapped in a big red bow. Bo quickly forgets about the cupcake and they get busy. Very hot scene! There's pillow talk afterwards about Daddy Hades. Bo worries that he's trying to use her for something bad. Tamsin says they wont let that happen. No one asked me but my suggestion would be to NOT to talk about your parents while you're in bed with a hot Valkyrie... but what do I know?

Grade: 4 Monsters (out of 5). A fun episode that propelled the story forward enough to keep me interested. I do love the way "Lost Girl" embraces its campiness. If you're going to go for it, go all the way. I personally dont like Mark's character but at least it gives Dyson something to do. Also I'm tired of Daddy Hades (since Bo has had daddy issues for a while now) but I guess he's end game.
