[LORENZO'S MANSION]
[Lorenzo Rey is hosting a party. Alec and Magnus arrive.]
KOL: Well, that's a party.
MAGNUS: Well, here we are.
[Alec has eye contact with Rufus who gives him a dirty look.]
REBEKAH: That look.
ALEC: [to Magnus] You're sure bringing me here was a good idea?
MAGNUS: It's better than coming by myself. [taking Alec's hand] I'm joking. They'll love you.
ALEC: Didn't seem that way.
[They let go and walk a bit.]
MAGNUS: Oh, just because you're the only Shadowhunter at a party full of warlocks doesn't mean you can't have fun.
ALEC: Yeah, well, that's easy for you to say. You've known these people for centuries.
MAGNUS: You think that's a good thing? Trust me. I don't wanna be here any longer than I have to. But it's tradition for the outgoing High Warlock to pass the baton on to his replacement.
[Magnus looks over. Alec follows his gaze.]
ALEC: Is that him?
MAGNUS: The one and only: Lorenzo Rey, the new High Warlock of Brooklyn.
[Lorenzo sees Magnus and waves his arm.]
LORENZO: Magnus! Magnus Bane!
[Magnus wants to walk away, but Alec holds him back and they approach Lorenzo.]
They laughed at this scene.
LORENZO: You made it, and you brought a friend.
ALEC: [holding out his hand] Yes, hi, I'm–
LORENZO: Alec Lightwood, Head of the New York Institute. I expect we'll be seeing quite a bit of each other at your Downworld cabinet meetings. No hard feelings, right, Bane?
CAROLINE: Oh, he's already annoying me.
MAGNUS: On the contrary, I'm very content in my new position. Being the High Warlock is a thankless job. Long hours, little pay. But I'm sure it doesn't matter to a young, civic-minded person as yourself.
LORENZO: Oh, don't be so jaded. I may only be 484, but I'm no stranger to service. All those years working for the High Warlock in Madrid have prepared me well. [to Alec] Although, I may not be as easy on you as he was. After all, I'm here to serve the warlocks, not Portal you around, like some glorified shuttle service.
