Logan watches the front door of the school, waiting for Max to appear. He checks his watch, swears, cocks his gun, and gets out of the car. As he's checking out the school's front door, he hears a gun cock behind him. It's Sheriff Creepy, who takes Logan's gun.

White drives towards Ray's school, and promises someone on the phone that he will be there soon. We see that he is talking to a priestess -- not the one who performed the ceremony, but one who was in attendance. She must be a bigwig at the school, and she's in the rest of the episode, so I'm going to call her Priestess Shorthair. Shorthair tells White that it's too soon to tell how Ray is doing. Ray lies in front of her, unconscious. Shorthair adds that they had an incident with a transgenic. White realizes that it must have been Max. Shorthair says that Max is being held, and she was cut during the incident, so "it should start taking effect on her soon." White says that he'll be there in an hour.

Max wakes up in a storage room, similar to the one that they used to keep Oz in on full-moon nights. Shorthair and Carrie Boy (i.e. the telekinetic boy that discovered Max in the first place) walk up and ask her if her hand hurts where she was stamped with the symbol. Max makes a smart remark, as usual. Shorthair asks if Max is there because of Wendy White, and then implies that Wendy is dead. Max asks what they're doing with Ray, and Shorthair replies, "What is necessary." Max asks her to be more specific, like, I don't know why Max is the one being so demanding when she's behind bars and all, and if I were Shorthair, I would tell Max to fuck off. Anyway, Shorthair says that Ray is "proving himself." Max would like to see Shorthair prove herself. Shorthair says that she has, and shows off the symbol scar on her arm. Max asks what you get after passing the "sacred snake-blood test." Shorthair tells Max that she'll be sorry, soon enough.
