It is becoming ridiculous. Even with a great story and plot source the show is not really trying to make sense. Dialogues haven't improved. Clarys behaviour still irrational. Then this guy Jace. He had so many opportunities to kill Valentine but didn't. Ok. understandable, he thought the big bad guy is his father. Point taken. Then at the episode when Valentine (again) invades the Institute (again so easy) in order to activate the Soulword. Ok, Clary said she wouldn't go close to it, but she did. And then when Jace and Simon fought Valentine and two of his henchman, Jace killing Valentines man and Simon knock off Valentine (he was unconscious), Valentine was lying on the floor. Jace and Simon were armed with sword and knife. What do they do? Oh, they need to find the sword instead of killing Valentine, who caused all this trouble since the beginning and wanted to commit mass murder and destruction to the world. No, they left him on the floor to find the sword, accidentally igniting it to let Valentine get the sword and killing off hundreds of incoming downworlders. But ok. Jace got the sword back, fighting Valentine, this time he won the upper-hand and Clary shut off the sword. But what did she do? the throws the sword on the ground and ran to Jace. OMG!!! saying "oh, we lost the sword again.....". Well, is this good Television? I don't think so.… Expand
