The Raven: What do you want?!

Lady Shiva reveals and puts Oscar's gear on a table
Jason stumbles

The Raven: Oscar...

Jason stumbles

The Raven: Why... why did you bring this to me? Lady Shiva: I come to you with an offer. I can bring him back. The Raven: How! You killed him! Lady Shiva: The world is not what you know, all around us are pits with energy to bring back the dead. The Raven: I don't believe you. Lady Shiva: The world is much bigger than you know, you are just a small part of it, secrets, conspiracies waiting to be uncovered. My master has lived for thousands of years thanks to these Lazarus pits. The Raven: Oscar's been dead for weeks, his parents.. his parents are a wreck. Lady Shiva: After killing him I disbanded from Sionis, I did not know he was a child. The Raven: If we take Oscar to this place, we can bring him back? Lady Shiva: It'll be like he never died. The Raven: Take me!

The Raven and Lady Shiva head to the Lazarus pit in Chicago under a theater

The Raven: This is where I bring Oscar? Lady Shiva: Bring his body and lay it in the pit. The Raven: How can I be sure it works.

Lady Shiva cuts her hand and heals it with the pit

The Raven: What the hell?

Later Jason is back in Deacon and at Oscar's grave sight

Jason gets a flashback from Oscar's funeral where he was watching from afar

Jason can't muster up the strength to dig Oscar up so he leaves

The next morning Jason is talking to Alexis

Jason: Hey, if someone came up to you and said they can bring something or theoretically someone you lost, what would you do. Alexis: What... Why what happened? Jason: Well I was out last night. Alexis: What were you doing out? Jason: I was following up on the vigilante case but that's not what I mean. Alexis:...Well theoretically, IF someone came to me saying all that, I would take it in a heartbeat, life is a gift Jason and if someone truly can bring someone back to life well, I'm not passing that up.

3 Assassins break in

Jason: What the hell!

Alexis takes her gun out and starts shooting at the assassin's
Jason grabs Alexis and gets cover by knocking down a table as the assassin's throw knifes at them

Alexis: Jason what's going on! Jason: I don't know!

Jason and Alexis hear the sounds of the assassin's fighting and then silence
Jason and Alexis look over the table and see's Lady Shiva standing over the 3 dead assassin's

Lady Shiva: You two need to come with me now!

Jason and Alexis are with Lady Shiva moving swiftly through alleys and back ways

Jason: What is going on? Lady Shiva: The organization I'm with wants you dead, they don't take kindly to outsiders using the pits. Jason: So now they're after me I haven't even used them. Lady Shiva: Doesn't matter but not just you but after everyone you care about. Alexis: So now we run forever? Lady Shiva: No, we take the fight to them!
