*My Thoughts*

Well, this episode gave viewers a bit of history into Clary's family history. While they try to save Luke's life, the Lightwoods seem to be under scrutiny by The Clave; hence, the visit by the parents. Uh oh...what does that mean for Alec and Isabelle?!?

This episode seems to focus on family history in which viewers get a more deeper character development of each of their personalities...and why. Seems that Luke knows more than what Clary has learned so far. We find out how Luke became a werewolf, and how Jocelyn and Luke's relationship developed. As Luke reveals to Clary details of their history, she's puts the pieces together and figures out where the Mortal Cup is hidden. Hmmm...

Family drama seems to have taken hold with the Lightwoods. What is it that has Alec and Isabelle's parents all worked up?!? Alec and Isabelle has been given an "ultimatum" in order to save the family honor?!? What is so dire that Alec and Isabelle must do their duty for the family?

It is apparent that Alec is confused, especially with his attraction to Magnus. The development between the two is too darling! Magnus is being coy (as he puts it), and Alec, well, he's got all that pent up feelings.

As for Simon...he's more confused with every moment he feels the "change" happen to him. He seems to have an idea, but he's even more confused about it. I wonder how long it will be until everyone else notices that he's transitioning into vampire!?!

More and more is happening as the search for this Mortal Cup continues. Tensions between the Shadowhunters and the Downworlders continually increases as the threat of Valentine intensifies.

Well, that's all for now, until the next episode Shadowhunters!

For now, here's a sneak peek at Episode 7 - "Major Arcana"
