'Shadowhunters' season 3B episode 12: A reunion, a budding romance, and some heavy realizations

We are not saying Clary and Jace finally come face to face, but Jace is in Paris and he is accompanied by Luke so it's only a matter of seconds!

This article contains spoilers for 'Shadowhunters season 3 episode 12: Original Sin.'

Brace yourselves because this is it. This is the 'Shadowhunters' episode we have all been waiting for! Titled 'Original Sin', this episode might just be the second one in season 3B, and the 12th episode this season, but in terms of action and gravity, it might prove to be one of the most crucial episodes we get to see ahead of the epic two-hour long finale that the show has promised its ardent fans.

And of course, what better way to induce anticipation and excitement over an episode, than plenty of teasers and spoilers right? Let's just say that among the many things that went down, this episode delivers some possible Clace reunion, some more sizzling Sizzy budding, and of course - the steamy AF Malec training session that has proven to be the talk of the fandom.

The official synopsis of the episode reveals that "Simon tries to track down New York's oldest vampire to get more information on the Mark of Cain; now in Paris, Clary desperately attempts to find an escape from her current situation; Magnus tries to live life to the very fullest." But of course, we are going to elaborate somewhat on this episode that the synopsis so carefully skims through.
