Devil in a Red Dress

Sister Jude is in her office, just getting off the phone with Jenny's mother. It seems that Jude has convinced this poor woman to come back and retrieve her bad seed, but Monsignor Howard doesn't even get the whole story, as the sour look on his face makes Sister Jude trail off. "What is that expression on your face, Timothy?" she asks, knowing something's up. He tells her that Briarcliff has become a burden for her, and that he's contacted Father Bernard in Pittsburgh. He's holding a position for her at their home for wayward girls. Jude looks heartbroken, asking of she's being fired. Howard only tells her she's lost her way and that he's booked her on a flight out of Logan on Friday morning. Sister Jude knows it's Dr. Arden behind this, and Howard yells at her that Arden's not the issue. She yells right back that Arden is entirely the issue, and also that she was right about him. Howard won't listen, of course, and tells her to pack her things.

Sister Jude is in her room, packing up, when Devil Eunice arrives with word that Jenny's mother came by and took her hellspawn daughter home. Jude's fighting back tears now as she explains Monsignor Howard's decision. My favorite part is Eunice's reaction to Pittsburgh. PITTSBURGH! "But what will become of us?" Eunice says in her closest approximation to innocence. They hug, but behind her back, Devil Eunice is picking up that red nightie from Jude's drawer and then hastily putting it back down. Amazing. "I won't leave you to the tender mercies of Dr. Arden," Sister Jude resolves. She sends Eunice to retrieve the cognac she keeps in the kitchen and two "very clean" glasses. Not that I wouldn't want these two bitches to drunk it out, but lady's got a plan.

Back at Sylar's Swinging Sixties Pad, our guy gets a phone call from Kit, who still seems to think Dr. Thredson is a guy who's going to help him. He keeps talking about how he knows Alma is alive now, because of Grace (hey, I wonder how Grace is going with all that bleeding she was doing last week?), but Thredson is just stonewalling him. Finally, after a billion hours and a dozen lightbulbs over his head that burned out from frustration, it finally dawns on Kit that Thredson never intended to keep him off of Death Row. He calls Thredson a fake and a liar, and Thredson starts to Sylar out, all "STOP CALLING ME THAT!" He slams the phone down.
