Bitten Preview: “Hell’s Teeth” 

[Warning: General spoilers ahead.]

After a bang-up two-hour opener last week, the Pack ended the episodes learning that for all their trouble to bring Malcolm in, they’d lost him again. In tonight’s new episode, we get a better picture of the witches and their interest in Malcolm.

The episode also introduces this season’s big bad (and he is a force until the season finale). Named Aleister (Sean Rogerson, who’s guested on Arrow), he’s a manipulative sociopath who, on the face, is a fairly charming, handsome guy, but he’s dark, dark, dark. He’s spun up the witches because he’s kidnapped their protegé, a young witch-in-training named Savannah, who you may recognize as Kiara Glasco from BBC America’s Copper.

Here’s the formal logline for the episode: The Pack is forced into an uneasy alliance with a Coven of witches against a common enemy. Both the Pack and Coven suffer heavy losses in the confrontation with the powerful newcomer.

“Hell’s Teeth” airs at 9/8c on Syfy. Here’s a sneak peek.
