Can you keep a secret? In today's episode, we sneak into Bohemian Grove and discover the shocking truth about the Illuminati, reveal skeletons in closets (and under floorboards), and undergo an initiation with Ke$ha. Plus, Dana's snooping backfires, Connor's magical past catches up to him, and Greg inducts you into the world's most powerful secret society. Get your ritual robes dry cleaned, because it's time to meet The Gatekeeper!
