Scurvy Cur howls something about letting Raige get away. Harrr!ve wheels on him with expository threats and such, and I have to tell you, none of this makes any goddamned sense the second time around. It was entertaining enough the first time through, but knowing what I know now, the plot holes are just gaping. F'rinstance, Harrr!ve asks Scurvy Cur about the latter's luck in procuring "the golden chalice." Scurvy Cur admits to his failure, but the thing's in a museum, as we shall soon learn, and these guys are, more or less, corporealized ghosts who travel in the fog, so it should be no problem for them to wisp their way into the building, off a few guards, break into the chalice's display case, and abscond with the thing to dissolve into the nighttime mists, but whatever. I can't spend all season getting bogged down in this bullshit. Harrr!ve growls his way through the end of this bit, and he's far too good for this material, but I'm not going to be paying much attention to the rest of his scenes because, come on. He's a guest actor we'll never see again, and his plotline sucks. Poor Harrr!ve.
