List of Witchblade episodes


summary & spoilers

  • Sara & Gabriel are on the run. Gabriel sees the witchblade while Sara is using it, and also has an encounter with Danny, who tells him to trust McCarty.
  • Ian is murdered by Captain Dante, and resurrected by Kenneth Irons & his creepy doctor buddy -- to go after Sara. McCarty & Sara set up Bruno Dante. She shoots him in self-defense, and he says as he's dying that he was just following orders when he killed her dad. He doesn't tell her who but she can psychically see that it's Kenneth Irons. She grabs a cab but it turns out to be driven by the new deadly Ian, who delivers her to Irons' mansion (at "1111 Faust").
  • Sara confronts Ian Nottingham. He tells her that her blood can confer longevity, now that she is bonded with the witchblade on a cellular level after the periculum. He also tells her that Elizabeth Bronte gave birth to a daughter who gave birth to Sara, and that a man named "Lazar" kidnapped her and gave her to James Pezzini to raise. And Elizabeth Bronte's stem cells were used to create and "perfect" Ian Nottingham. Irons confirms that he ordered James Pezzini killed.
  • Nottingham kills Jake McCartey, then kills Gabriel. Sara's Witchblade doesn't work against the new deadly Ian.

Fun quotes

Captain Bruno Dante: "Where is she? Where's Sara Pezzini?"
Ian Nottingham: "She graces the intersection of primal cause and pervasive entropy."
