Cavern Of The Bi Kraps. Back-and-forth bickering between Cole and Ian about the latest failed mission. Cole cuts through the crap to tell Ian to give it a rest. He knows Ian doesn’t really care about the amulets. He knows the missions are simply an exercise to make him hate Phoebe. He knows this plan won’t work. Cole refuses to follow any more of Ian’s orders. Ian plays his ace. He raises his left hand to conjure the glowing white orb again. Meet Cole’s father. Well, his father’s soul, at any rate. Cole lunges at Ian, but the Freak holds him back with a dagger at his throat. Ian proposes a deal. If Cole kills Jenna, Ian will release Cole from any further obligations to the Bi Kraps and hand over his father’s soul as well. Cole glares, then squiggles out. “The only thing separating us from getting him back are a couple of drops of innocent blood,” Ian nefariously notes. “And they’re about to be spilled.”
Mausoleum’s mausoleum. Cole squiggles in to find Phoebe waiting for him. He apologizes for the FBOD he tossed her way earlier. She tells him not to worry about it. “It’s not like you haven’t tried to kill me before,” she reminds him. Yeah, this is a healthy relationship. They must return to the manor immediately to apply the Demon Be Gone. Cole, addled, chooses not to tell her about his father’s captive soul. Rather, he frets that the potion might be too little, too late. His hand morphs into Belthazor’s while the Darth Maul markings dance across his face, which -- forgive me -- is kind of cool. Phoebe urges him to get a grip and moves to lead him out to the car. He pants that squiggling would be faster. She thinks calling upon his demonic resources would be too much of a temptation in his current state. She slides an arm around his waist and helps him to the door.
