With Pam's body now rotting as the result of the witch's spell, Bill decides to take action and imprisons Marnie, who continues to have visions of an ancient spirit. He wants her to reverse the spell she's placed on Pam but she says she simply doesn't know how. Bill is none too pleased when he learns that Sookie is hiding Eric.

Arlene and Terry decide they need an exorcism and seek some local help. Lafayette and Jesus head to Mexico to get some help of their own.

Bill is livid when he hears that Sookie has been hiding Eric in her house. He arrests him and puts him in the same cell with Pam, who is still rotting away. He also asks the Authority to put Eric to the true death. Marnie is also in Bill's prison but connects with the spirit of the witch from the past who had a deadly spell for dealing with vampires. It's also a full moon and Jason fully expects to turn into a were-panther. Sookie sits up with him but when he runs off into the woods, it's Jessica who comforts him.
