Ms. Owens confronts Rosanne after finding restraint items in Finn's study. Rosanne corrects her: Finn has suffered a blood curse since childhood; every 13th he endures unbearable pain and chains himself to avoid hurting others. Meanwhile classmate Lucia endures Abigail's ridicule for buying a talisman. Lucia, who promised to stay with Finn but must attend class, gives him blood: "It's blood I prepared for you," she says, to help him control the curse when she's away. The episode ends with someone spotting damage—"What happened to your collarbone?"—leaving Finn's condition unresolved.
