Sara and Jake are caught up in the world of high fashion when a stunning young model is murdered. Sara's connection to the legacy of the Witchblade becomes more mysterious when she uncovers a link between her past and the dead model's roommate.
This ep was great. Nottingham delivered his freaky riddles, Sara learned more about the Witchblade (..I control you....tighter). It was real nice when the Witchblade wouldn't attack her. However the model as apart of Sara's past was a bit confusing but in a good way. So in the end...very nice.
Nitpick
If you look closely, you can see that the monitor showing Karen being wrapped up by the snake turns on before Dominque hits the remote control's button.

Wearers can suffer a rapid aging process. Dominique ages significantly in her jail cell after she loses her fight to take back the Witchblade. The blade can also stop the aging process. Irons looks the same as he did in the photo that was taken in '59, as does Boucher at the beginning of the episode.

(Jake and Karen are playing pool)Karen: I can't tell you how nice this is.
Jake: What? Kicking my ass?
Karen: Spending time with someone so...
Jake: Stimulating?
Karen: So real.
Jake: Ah...
Karen: I don't know. I just feel so safe with you.
Jake: Not too safe, I hope.
Karen: Just safe enough.
Edit
Karen: So...uh...your partner...what's her story?
Jake: I don't know her very well. We've only been partners a couple weeks. She's...uh...very private. Great cop.
Karen: So you dig her?
Jake: Hey, it's work. Work and play don't mix.
Karen: Right.
Edit
Irons: This world is a dance of predator and prey. The strong take the weak and are taken in turn by those still stronger. If she ever realizes her true nature, God help us all.
Edit
Dominique takes on the appearance of the snake-haired Medusa from Greek mythology in one of Sara's visions.
Edit
Ian: Cherchez la femme, Sara, cherchez la femme. (later) Cherchez la jeune fille.
These are in French, the first roughly translated as "look for the woman", and the second "look for the girl". Cher is also one of the syllables of Dominique Boucher's name, possibly another clue from Ian to Sara as to the identity of her foe. La jeune fille seems to refer to Karen Bronte.
