Despite the tough blonde in a library-with-cage, this is not Buffy. |
The pack gathers - Daniel the alpha, Clay the enforcer, Elena the tracker; Italo-American chef and his son and Pete the Roadie - and as Elena reminisces about her former role as archivist, we also learn that the Danvers' 'noble pack' are the rulers and enforcers of werewolf law, holding the 'mutts' in check. One of her jobs used to be keeping track of the mutts, but that's sort of lapsed in her absence. Given that we also learn that she's the only know female werewolf ever, the family sure feels like they think secretarial work is a woman's purview. Oddly, that wasn't why she left, but over her guilt when she killed an anthropologist who had found a werewolf and planned to start leading werewolf hunting safaris.
"So... Fanservice then?" "Yeah, but equal opportunity." |
Bitten firmly establishes its commitment to equal opportunity fanservice this episode. It also sets up a fairly unique relationship between the leads, with constant changing and running together leaving everyone in the pack entirely comfortable with each other's nakedness - except perhaps Elena with Clay's.
