Shadowhunters Recap - "Raising Hell" (S01E04)


Clary has a nightmare about her past and sees a warlock named Magnus. After tossing and turning, she wakes up to find Jace on her bed trying to calm her down, but she quickly realizes that it is Simon with her. He's confused but tries to comfort her anyway. Jace peaks in from the hall and is clearly angered by what he sees. When she mentions Magnus' name, Simon says Camille mentioned a Magnus Bane and said he was the high warlock of Brooklyn. Clary puts 2 and 2 together and thanks Simon for his help then runs off to see Jace.

Jace is working out (shirtless! ;) ) when Clary runs in and is clearly embarrassed. Jace smirks and asks what she's doing and she tells him about Magnus Bane. Jace says they have to lure him out of hiding. Izzy runs in and says that Simon is leaving. Clary runs after him and asks Izzy to wake Hodge and Alec- they have a lead on how to get Clary's memories back. Clary tries to stop Simon but he keeps yelling and asking her to come with him. He promises he'll keep her safe- then Jace interuppts and says she's in the safest place she can be. Simon yells at him and compares him to bully he had at school, he yells at Jace to do his own homework before storming off. Clary runs after him, but she can't convince him to stay.

She joins, Jace, Hodge, Alec, and Izzy as they discuss Magnus Bane. Valentine has been hunting the warlocks so they know he is in hiding. Izzy says the downworlders are having a rave and she thinks that will draw him out since he is known for loving to party. They know he will demand a payment to help them, so Hodge gives them a ruby necklace that once belonged to Magnus. Magnus gave it to Camille and enchanted it to sense when demons are near.

Simon makes it home and his friend Maureen comes to see him. She has been worried about him since he missed band practice. His mom comes in and she was worried about him. She tells him if he's going to be out all night with Clary to at least call. Simon insists they're just friends and not dating. Maureen says she'd like to be...dating him. He doesn't know what to say and his head begins getting foggy. Maureen is embarrassed and knocks over a photo of him and Clary. She cuts herself on the glass and Simon can only focus on her blood. She leaves and he licks it.



Izzy gives Clary a dress to wear to the party. Jace barges in and can't take his eyes off of Clary. He says she'll need a weapon so he gives her a seraph dagger. The group meets and heads down to the club. Clary is nervous because it was full of vampires last time they were there. Jace insists all downworlders hang out there. They get in the club and Clary and Jace search out Magnus. Magnus recognizes her instantly and she demands her memories back. He tells them that he fed them to a memory demon, but they may be able to get them back. He demands payment first and Jace shows him the necklace. He takes it from Jace, then Alec shoots a man behind him and comes running. Magnus is impressed and also afraid, He tells Clary to join him and that she'll be safe with him in hiding but she refuses. He tells her that Dot died and she tries to make him stay, but he escapes through the portal. All Clary is left with is a button.




They escape into an ally and Clary is a mess. Alec is angry because "that girl" is slowing them down. Jace yells at Alec to leave Clary alone, and to use her name. Clary's sorry that they didn't get her memories and that they lost the necklace. Jace draws a tracking rune and tries to track Magnus using his button. He is unable to do it, so he calls upon the Parabatai bond with Alec. They track him down and head to him. Once they find the location, they sneak in and see a man being killed. Clary sees a little girl who runs to her father, and is almost attacked until Clary jumps in and protects her. Jace and Izzy help her out and she promises to protect the girl. They find Magnus in the middle of a fight and Alec saves him. They introduce themselves and Clary brings him the little girl. Magnus is impressed at how willing Clary was to save her and that she didn't care that the girl is half warlock. As a reward for helping him, he gives Isabelle the ruby necklace.

Simon calls Clary to apologize. He tells her in the message that he's been feeling weird since he was kidnapped. He thinks he has the flu.

Magnus changes their scenery and they discuss bringing forth the memory demon which is a greater demon and very powerful. Magnus tells "pretty boy" to ready his team, when Jace steps forward he pushes him back and motions towards Alec. Alec shrugs it off, but it's obvious he's pleased with the attention. Magnus gives Clary a picture and tells her to draw the pentagram and Jace draws a very painful rune on her. She draws the pentagram on the floor. Magnus has them all take their spots on the pentagram. He tells them all to hold hands and not to let go under any circumstances. They hold hands and he summons the demon. As payment, they are all supposed to relinquish a memory of the person they love the most. Izzy's releases an Alec memory. Clary releases a Jocelyn memory. Alec releases a Jace memory. He is instantly so embarrassed and ashamed that he says the demon tricked him and he lets go. The demon tries to grab him, but Jace jumps in the way. The demon starts sucking him up. Izzy grabs him and tries to pull him back. Alec grabs onto him as well, but they yell to Clary for help.

Clary charges with the dagger and kills the demon. Jace is released and once he catches his breath, he tells Clary he's impressed. Magnus tells Alec there is nothing to be ashamed of, and Alec plays dumb. Clary is sad that she'll never get those memories back, but Jace basically says you never know. Once they're back in The Institute, Clary holds her necklace and she sees Valentine over her mother. He then looks and says hello to Clary and invites her to come find him. She freaks out and throws off her necklace.

The final scene is of Simon walking up to the Hotel Durmont.
