Welcome back, Helsingers! This week we finally got our first glimpse of Tricia Helfer’s Dark One and she did not disappoint. Vanessa connects further with Violet and Jack. She initially wonders if they had been experimented on like she was in the past. But a family reunion with Abraham Van Helsing answers all questions about the girls’ bloodline. The truth is out. They are the daughters of Vanessa Van Helsing and our heroine immediately goes into “Mama Bear”-mode.

Hit play and listen in as Brad and Cort discuss Ep 4x07, "Metamorphosis". What did you think of Helfer’s Dark One? She’s definitely intimidating and how about that crazy chemistry between her and Vanessa? Were you fooled for a second into thinking that Vanessa had fallen under the Dark One’s spell?  Even when their relationship isn’t in the best place, how awesome are Doc and Julius’ interactions? Sam met his full potential and ended up scarified to help Bathory release the Dark One. Were you shocked to see Sam’s story reach its end? Is this the end for Sam? What happens now that Vanessa and the Dark One are locked away together? So many revelations this episode and yet we still have a thousand and one questions. Well-played, show!
