Elena tracks down Bobby after he fails to return and discovers a strangely dressed waitress dragging him into a private room; security later removes her. The scene escalates into a violent struggle: Bobby is holding someone aloft who screams she's afraid of heights and pleads to be put down. Threats intensify—one voice declares, “Your heart is with me; if I die, you'll die too,” while another scoffs at losing their heart. Key turn: a mutarite has entered his heart, and a desperate remedy appears—'Only the blood from the tip of my tongue can save him.' The episode ends on that unresolved choice.
