SPOILER

Tensions escalate between Alec and Clary as they don’t see eye to eye on the best way to hunt down Valentine. But when Jace and Isabelle are sent on an intel mission to the Seelies by Maryse Lightwood, Alec is put in charge of keeping Clary safe, much to both of their chagrin. With his hard-as-nails mother back in town and Clary’s rule-breaking tendencies, Alec finds himself struggling to stick to the Claves rules while keeping his promise to Jace.

Meanwhile, the New York City Werewolf pack begins their hunt for Clary and The Mortal Cup.

Shadowhunters episode 102, The Descent Into Hell Is Easy, airs on Freeform today at 9 PM.

In an exclusive behind-the-scenes video, Zap2It takes fans to the making of The Mortal Cup‘s fight scene in Pandemonium.

“It has to be perfect, it has to be right, it has to be exciting and it has to be violent, and it has to be quick,” says Dominic Sherwood.

The action sequence took 2 days to film, with the cast bearing actual punches to make it real. “We’ve all been hit at least once,” adds Dom.
