At a staff gathering, a man refuses to let a beautiful anomaly use her hands to kill and offers to do her nails instead. The anomaly unexpectedly agrees, and the crowd marvels at her manicure. She softens, saying, “My husband died long ago… it's been hundreds of years,” which provokes fawning—one calls the man a soulmate and others rush to request manicures. A rival ghost objects to the flirting on her turf. Leadership escalates, orders 'hell mode,' and plans to send a female ghost to the staff dorm that night to give him a "nice welcome," setting up an imminent confrontation.
