When Lauren's mentor suspects wrongdoing in a Fae prison, Bo gets herself arrested so that she can go undercover as an inmate while Lauren poses as a Fae prison doctor. Kris, Annie, and Stephanie discuss the Season 3 premiere of Lost Girl "Caged Fae" with their guest Sally.
Bo takes Lauren on a mission to save a man who has been taken by a Lich, a very long-lived Fae who seeks knowledge. They hope the Lich could have information about the nail the Morrigan gave Bo as a hint about Nadia, but the Lich has other plans for the succubus. Kris, Annie, and Stephanie discuss one of Annie's favorite episodes of Lost Girl, "Death Didn't Become Him."

Our latest fanfic reading is of Annie's CopDoc fanfic. (Yes, Annie wrote a fanfic centered on CopDoc, and it ends exactly how you think it does.)
