Soon after, the family prepares for the ritual in their own ways as Becky talks with Georgie, Gabe, and Emilie.
Becky: Our family has a very special friend named Mr. Le Bail. Mr. Le Bail is the reason we have all the nice things we have. But sometimes Mr. Le Bail wants something from us in return.
Helen was staring at the hide and seek card as Fitch motivates himself and slaps himself.
Fitch: You got this, Fitch. You got this, Fitch! Don't be a bitch, Fitch. Don't be a bitch, Fitch. You got this, bitch.
Every one of the family members begins to don their dark purple robes as Tony talks with Mr. Le Bail char.
Tony: I know tonight didn't go as planned. But I'll make it right, Mr. Le Bail.
Tony places Mr. Le Bail's box in front of the chair.
Tony: You'll see.
Meanwhile, Daniel was sitting by himself deep in thought and upset about what's to come as Alex was slowly breaking free as in another room Y/N was rocking his wooden chair side by side to tip himself over to break the chair and free himself. Grace wakes up with a mouth gag in her mouth as she is tied up. Alex speaks in a different language. When he finishes, Daniel gives the cup to Alex, and he continues to chant and once he finishes, he drinks it as he gives it to the others, and they drink it, and he continues to chant. Alex then grabs a dagger.
Alex: We renew our pledge this night, as our ancestors before us... with this offering of living flesh and blood.
They all begin to chant. Tony raises the dagger.
Alex: Hail...
He stops as he grabs his stomach and drops the dagger.
Helene: Brother!
Everyone but Daniel begins to puke out blood as Daniel begins to free Grace.
Helene: Poisoned!
Tony: You son of a bitch!
Tony tries to attack him but collapses to the ground as Alex begins to break free while Y/N tips his chair over and falls, breaking the chair. He gets up and runs out of the bedroom as Daniel begins to untie Grace.
Becky: What did you give us?
Daniel: Stuff we poured on the maids. White bottle, little red cap.
Tony: Hydrochloric acid!
Daniel helps Grace.
Daniel: Come on, up and at 'em.
Daniel and Grace run out as Alex is able to escape by rubbing the chain of his handcuffs against the wooden frame of the bed he's cuffed to. He gets up and grabs the keys and unlocks the handcuffs.
Alex: Grace!
Y/N runs out and sees Daniel and Grace.
Y/N: Grace. You, okay?
She nods as she looks at Daniel.
Grace: Did you... Did you just kill 'em?
Daniel: No, I just gave them a nip. I Googled it. They'll shit weird for a week, but they'll be fine. Don't worry, I'll get Alex out too.
Tony: Find them!
Becky: We don't have...
The three hide together as they run past them.
Grace: I knew you'd help me.
Daniel: I didn't. All I knew was, at some point, somebody had to burn it all down. Never thought it'd be me.
