[The episode starts with an Abomaton plugging a tube in the portal, which transfers energy to it and powers it. Belos walks over and touches the broken portal key slung around his neck. The Collector appears.]

The Collector: Heh, nervous? You haven't been home in, like, how many hundreds of years? What if it's all chaa-anged? What if you changed? You got so used to eating palismen, you can barely keep your shape anymore! [Belos' arm morphs into goo and strikes directly where the Collector is, then he retracts it, shaking.] I can't wait to get out of this prison! There are so many games I wanna play... If we need a third player, we could make another grimwalker!

Belos: No, not until I've dealt with this one.

[The Collector changes form and stretches himself across the walls of the room, duplicating his face onto each side of his body.]

The Collector: [Impatient.] Just free me already! [Whining.] You promised!

Belos: The Draining Spell must work first, like you promised.

The Collector: [Glares at Belos.] You need to have more faith in pinky swears.

Belos: Don't worry, Collector, your patience will be rewarded. [He walks out and it is revealed they are within The Titan's head.] The Day of Unity is about to begin.


[Scene cuts over to Blight Industries. Odalia is signing off on a delivery, while Kikimora is in the pilot seat of a landed airship with Coven Scouts and Abomatons on board.]

Odalia: I was devastated to hear of your demotion, Kikimora.

Kikimora: Please stop talking to me.

Odalia: Personally, I liked you more than that turn cloak Golden Gaurd. Ugh, if only there was a way to show Belos your true worth.

Kikimora: [Mockingly.] "If only there was a way to show Belos-" mmm, let's get out of here.

[Kikimora's ship leaves Blight Industries. The Blight twins and Amity are then shown hiding behind a pile of trash to watch Odalia from a distance.]

Emira: [Whispering.] She won't believe you!

Edric: Even if she did, she won't care.

Amity: Someone has to tell Mom about the Draining Spell. Or else she and Dad are helping Belos hurt people.

[As she sees Alador approaching, Amity gasps and pulls the twins down out of sight. The three then crawl to the side of the trash pile to watch Odalia and Alador.]

Odalia: I've got that little gremlin on the hook! She'll be the perfect test subject for our new product.

Alador: Don't you think it's odd that they need this much security for the Day of Unity? Perhaps we should reconsider this deal.

Odalia: Blights always uphold their end of the deal, dear. Or should I reconsider ours? [Grabs necklace, causing it to start glowing.] It might be time for the kids to play a more active role in Blight Industries. I could start the paperwork right now.

[Alador is silent with a conflicted expression on his face. As Odalia releases her necklace, Alador turns and walks away, with Odalia following behind.]

Amity: Hey, guys, Dad might listen! [She finds the two have gone missing, and peeks above the trash pile.] Guys?

[Odalia's shadow suddenly looms in front of her and Amity turns to face her. The twins are held captive by an Abomaton and Odalia is looking angry.]
