Lost Girl 1x10

Uh, Bo, not to rain on your self-righteous parade, but remember last episode when your ~boyfriend~ wounded a goblin, made a little quip, and then shot him in the face while he was bleeding on the ground? And the goblin was just doing his job. So let's not start being Batman about this.

Agreed.

1. The guy was essentially a serial killer. A sadistic misogynist serial killer at that. He wasn't going to stop, he had no sidekick moderating his behavior, and he had no intention of getting therapy or training to curb his appetites.

2. The Dark Fae wouldn't care so long as he wasn't too sloppy about it, which he wasn't since it was all playing off as suicides to the human world.

3. The Light Fae had no jurisdiction, and the cops aren't going to investigate "death by magical self loathing coercion." which ruled out Dyson doing much of anything besides an unauthorized kill.

4. Bo has killed Fae in self defense before. And this guy, while subdued at the moment, had been trying to kill her scant moments before, and Bo was trying to kill him back.


So, get over it Bo. No, it's not a great predicament. No, killing subdued captives is not something she should be involving herself with regularly. But in this case there weren't a lot of options, and in terms of her ability to help people going forward and using her powers responsibly, to you know, not accidentally kill or to then fix any mistakes she might make with her powers, rejecting Saskia was frankly, selfish and short sighted.

I want episode 8 back.

That was COMPLETELY different. That goblin had been paid to hurt some dude. The guy in this episode just psychologically tortured dozens of women until they killed themselves in violent ways. He did it for shits and giggles. If he was being paid for it, that would be different.

Ahhh, episode eight. The pinnacle. :D

That's what I'm saying. If they left the goblin alive, he would've left them alone once the hit was called off. If they left the serial killer alive, he would've kept being a serial killer.
