Jace has completed his mission for Lilith, but is she still planning to destroy him? Dom Sherwood teases the other tricks Lilith has up her sleeve in Shadowhunters season 3.

At the conclusion of Shadowhunters season 3, episode 6, “A Window Into An Empty Room,” The Owl completed his mission, despite his true identity being revealed. We caught up with Dom Sherwood to learn more about what this will mean for The Owl and Lilith’s relationship moving forward in the season. “Poor Ollie got the all of the old demon vomit (bless her). After that happens, he is finished with his mission,” Sherwood confirmed. “As Lilith has said before that, I think 2 episodes ago she said to Jace, ‘You’ll bring me by 33 disciples, and then I’m going to destroy you.’”

But Sherwood also revealed that Lilith isn’t quite finished with Jace/The Owl now that the 33 disciples have been found. “There are also a couple of other things that Lilith has up her sleeve. She has some more tricks — one really good one,” he said.

He went on to tease that we might be seeing some different people (unless “new faces” means something more cryptic?) in upcoming season 3A episodes, but he stopped himself before he spoiled too much of what might happen.

“We’re going to see some faces that, you know… yeah, you’re just going to have to… you’re not going to expect them,” he said. “You’re not going to expect to see what we’ve got coming, what we’ve got up our sleeves.”

Lilith may have told Jace that he’d be worthless to her after his work as The Owl was complete, but it looks like things will take several more turns. “She’s got a potentially larger plan than she’s laid out thus far.”

I guess it’s safe to say the rest of season 3A won’t be closely following what happens in the book. Sherwood cut himself off before he accidentally said anything he shouldn’t have. “That’s all I can tease. I almost gave a couple of things away, but then I managed to hold myself back,” he joked.

Shadowhunters will return next Tuesday with a brand new episode at 8/7c on Freeform.
