| Has no one ever seen what happens in a horror movie? |
Apologies that I haven't been keeping up with the reviews but I've been fighting the flu or something like the flu because I couldn't get out of bed without wanting to puke. Anyway I decided to do two reviews in one article also the same for the season finale.

| I wish science fairs were this exciting in my day |
First we saw how our librarians could act as a team but now we've gotten to know them more as individuals; Cassandra especially got special attention. We got a look into her rough relationship with her parents. She hasn't spoken to them in years since her tumor. Jake and Ezekiel are still a bit of mystery but one hopes some light gets shed on them later.

| What do you mean you didn't save me any cookies? |
As someone who ships Jake and Cassandra I was very put out that during Cassie's intimate personal moments about her past and her brain tumor, Jake wasn't there. To be honest though, I kinda forgot all about that brain grape until her nose started bleeding a few times. In the haunted house Baird kept telling Cassandra to hang back which sort of made her feel bad. She was struggling with the same guilt of betraying them the first time around and we know Cassie is really sorry about that and is trying extra hard to make up for it. Stone's name came up (shame on you, Jake!). I don't know about you but I forgave Cassandra as soon as she saved Flynn's life. But Cassandra ended up saving the day so hopefully despite Jake's original thought to never trust her, she's gained back at least a smidgen of it.

| Cassandra is a kid in a candy store |
Now I feel like I've been focusing on "The Rule of Three" episode so lets look deeper into the "Heart of Darkness"...if you dare...
 |
| Yes run AWAY from the murder house! |
 |
| Think we need to call the Winchesters? |
Like I said it felt like a Cassandra-central episode but why not? She's the only one of the team that faces death every day with the thought that she could die at any time now. Her life is on a clock (we all are) but her fear and dealing with death allowed her to come through for the team. Baird didn't realize that Katie was the house's dark heart that turned this house of happiness and need into one of nightmares. So it seemed to benefit the team more that Cassandra spend time with a serial killer while everyone else was running around like headless chickens (is that a pun?). Katie called herself the Angel of Death but Cassandra deals with death every day so she could stand up to the little psycho bitch. Cassandra had the ingenuity and sense to actually speak to the house discovering it's original purpose, which helped her help it get rid of Katie.

| This is the bullshit-o-meter. It detects your total bullshit |
No one takes a day off at the Annex! There were some bright moments of hilarity and the team connecting with people outside their group. Cassandra really connected with one young girl who stood up to her wolverine mom who was foaming at the mouth. At least Cassandra could take comfort in the fact she added an adjective to a fellow smart girl's personality. Jake offered some romantic advice to a kid in need. I wish Christian Kane would recite poetry to me *sigh*. How sweet was it that Ezekiel stole Cassandra that trophy to cheer her up? Awwwww. I wish it was Stone though.

| Jenkins is not a people person |
Then there's the mysterious Jenkins. He doesn't get out of the Annex much but when he does he likes to satisfy his sugar cravings. But there was an unexpected guest. Morgan LeFay shows up to rattle Jenkins's cage. Jenkins isn't the warmest guy of the group but the way he berated Baird for letting Morgan get away (in the process saving hundreds of people) was just plain mean and in poor form. Eve isn't the hit man or Jenkins's personal henchman she's the guardian and guardians protect first. So first Dulaque then Morgan LeFey? Anyone else getting a Camelot vibe? The mystery of Jenkins is becoming more clear but we have more questions.

| Why can't Jake recite poetry to Cassandra??? |
 |
| Never a dull day, not even at a science fair |
