The artifact was actually in her hands.
I saw it with my own two eyes.

Of course, there were a few bumps along the way.
Nothing is ever easy when you have a band of shapeshifting demons trying to thwart your every move.
Shell have to summon her fancy artwork magic so that retrieve it from the drawing.
Its a good thing Luke confiscated most of the sentimental stuff from the apartment right after Jocelyn was abducted.
The tarot cards are in his desk drawer at work.
Jace and Clary follow him to the police station, but he insists on going in alone.
Unfortunately, Luke wasnt expecting Capt.
Vargas to waltz up with a man from Internal Affairs instructing Luke to give up his badge and gun.
He is now the prime suspect in two very suspicious murders.
Hes being escorted to an interrogation room.
Jace reads the IA dudes badge from across the parking lot.
Need to see from far away?
Theres a rune for that.
Luke pretends not to notice as Jace unplugs the camera.
Luke fills them in on his unfortunate predicament.
He tells Clary to run and grab the tarot cards and leave the murder investigation to him.
Luke warns them both to not draw attention to themselves.
Get in, get out, get back to the Institute.
Everyone, including Capt.
Vargas, gathers around to question why the fiery redhead is arguing with the dude in leather.
Clary marches over to Lukes desk to presumably borrow a key to his apartment.
When she discovers an empty drawer, she asks the Captain why Lukes stuff is gone.
Internal Affairs boxed it up and took it to the evidence vault.
Clary bonds with Capt.
Vargas about the allure of bad boys as Jace is hauled out of the station.
Across town, Simon realizes that hes slowly going crazy.
Or hes turning into a vampire.
AWKWARD.It was all very Ross and Rachel.
Simon hops up from the bed, claiming he forgot something back at home.
Maureen retorts, My name?
as Simon retreats to his favorite coffee truck.
When his java turns into blood, Simon is sure something isnt quite right.
I guess the double-garlic bagel didnt trip any red flags for him?
He calls Clary to vent.
Naturally Jace takes Clarys phone and hangs up on him.
Shes all business now.
She will no longer use her boobs to get what she wants.
But she has no trouble forcing her brother to use his dazzling smile to swipe a security badge.
Izzy heads to the electrical closet.
One rune later, the police station experiences a power outage.
NEXT: Hey, Grandma!
Meanwhile, Luke and the Internal Affairs guy continue to go round after round.
Luke is able to talk himself out of a murder but is instructed to stay in town.
He walks into Capt.
Vargas office to fill her in on the details.
Thats when he finds her dead in a closet with a slit throat.
Lukes werewolf sidekick, Alaric, determines that her body is full of demon blood.
The police station has definitely been compromised.
It would be great if they could see in the dark.
Theres a rune for that, too.
Jace burns one into Clarys skin in the most seductive way possible.
Clary and Jace rush outside to make their way back to the Institute.
Clary runs into a little old lady who turns out to be a demon.
Seraph blade to the chest!
Take that, Grandma!
The band of shadowhunters soon find themselves surrounded by demon cops.
They take off to the underground tunnels.
Thats exactly where I would have gone.
Alec offers to stay at the entrance to hold off anyone or anything that might be following.
But Izzys necklace begins pulsating.
There are demons in the tunnel, too.
They decide to spit up, which is NEVER a good idea.
Jace begs Clary to run as far as she can.
Obviously she runs straight into a dead end hallway with demons chasing her.
She reaches into the drawing and pulls out the Mortal Cup to use as a weapon.
Simply waving it in front of them makes all the demons retreat.
Seraph blade to the chest!
Clary crosses her fingers, hoping that its actually a shapeshifter.
Take that leather-clad demon!
Clarys not the only one who is seeing things.
Simons hallucinations are in full force.
So is his strength.
Oh hes trippin alright.
Simon trips right on out the window and heads to the Hotel Dumort.
He wants to talk to Raphael.
Instead, he gets Camille.
She assures him that hes not turning into a vampire.
Well, he was still human before Camille attacked him.
Back at the Institute, Jace barks orders to anyone who will listen.
Clarys life is in danger!
She must be found!
To his surprise, she swoops in with Alec.
She explains how she got held up by a shapeshifter who looked just like him.
