Kenzi might not give a damn about them, but the Fae do. Telling Nate wouldn't just be breaking the rules, it would be getting him either killed or enslaved.

It would/will be interesting to see what they're going to do with Dyson next season. Once they locked themselves into the stupid wolves-mate-for-life thing they made him simultaneously a terrible partner for Bo and incapable of being reworked with another love interest; which is a neat trick. He weakens Bo as a

Almost everything that comes up in the show does have some basis in some mythology, which is kind of amazing. A lot of the oddest bits that people find excessively weird - and even a lot of stuff that passes people by - come from somewhere. I'm pretty sure Vex and his power is the only thing that was wholly made up

I have a lot of problems with season 2 but I've whined about them before. One thing I did like, was that from around the mid point, and particularly regarding the whole Lauren/Nadia sub plot, Bo grew into a character I genuinely liked, rather than just being Generic Sexy Badass Action Heroine.

The reviewer grading for this show is a mystery to me. As patchy as the later season gets, this episode was still one of the weakest.
