She interrogates Holly about how he acquired the scarab ring. Holly is flustered but doesn't reveal anything, and soon She relents. Holly visits Leo, finding him still feverish and declining, so instead, he goes back to investigate a passageway. At the end of it, he glimpses She in the middle of a feverish ritual. He remains hidden and speculates to himself whether Leo really is her lover reincarnated. Later She and Holly discuss her rule and whether She can help save Leo. She arrives to do this and realizes that Leo is her reincarnated lover, Kallikrates.
