Tyr has the upper hand, Shadow intervenes to save his old man, and Wednesday stabs his mate in the back while he’s distracted. The pair decide to settle things “the old way”: a furious battle decked out in flamboyant armour. Things between Tyrell and Wednesday are bad, like Morrissey and Marr bad, and apparently it all goes back to the time Tyrell sacrificed his arm to the mighty wolf Fenrir. Dr Tyrell (Denis O’Hare) has taken him hostage at Wolf’s Den, but really he’s just bait designed to lure in Wednesday (Ian McShane).
