As Mary plans her escape, Damon chastises her. She decides to run upstairs to gather her Loved Ones but is stopped by one of the ghost women. As more Furies gather, one points with her finger. Mary realizes that the woman is trying to show her a locked door, which the ghost woman unlocks with her nail.
Mary enters the room. Her journal sits on one of the tables. Someone has compared it to Damon’s original and noted discrepancies between the two. The ghost women open up a shelving unit to reveal glass display cases that house their human faces. Another ghost motions for Mary to read Damon’s notes on his victims. She imagines what he would have written about her. As she realizes that she needs to leave, Dr. Burton rushes in and injects her with a giant syringe.
Mary wakes up to the sound of digging. Someone calls her a gendered slur. Dr. Burton screams at her for injuring his hand. He and Barb have taken her out to the desert and have buried her up to her chin in the sand; a glass box sits over her exposed head. Damon used to cure his victims’ skin in the sun after killing them, but the people of Arroyo do it beforehand to make skinning easier.
