In this week's episode (S4, Ep. 12 - Criss Angel Is a Douche Bag), we continue to take a break from the core plotline for season 4 in a filler episode focused around three aging magicians.

Welcome back to the hunt - sometimes humans are the worst. In this week's episode (S4, Ep. 11 - Family Remains), we tackle a plot that is fairly straight-forward but takes us into the (un)comfort zone a bit.
