Armand remains tied up while Mallory, Fitcher, and Constantino retrieve the wedding rings from his suite. Gabrielle and Anaïs stay behind to guard him. The trio navigate to Armand’s locked suite, and Mallory discovers that the hidden hook beneath the vanity is empty. She frantically searches the entire room but finds no trace of the four wedding rings. As she rummages through the writing desk, the last drawer slams shut on its own and pinches her finger. She sees malevolent blue eyes reflected in the window and turns to find Bastien Saphir’s ghost blocking the doorway. Unable to see the spirit, Constantino watches Mallory for cues to Bastien’s location and releases an arrow that passes straight through the ghost’s head, temporarily dissolving him. Bastien’s disembodied laughter fills the room, warning them they should not have done that. The house erupts into chaos as the windows shatter, an unnatural blue fire flares in the hearth, and the floorboards open beneath their feet, swallowing them whole.

Mallory, Fitcher, and Constantino fall through Armand’s bedroom floor and land in the kitchen unharmed. The floors above them piece themselves back together. Copper pots crash down and blue fire erupts from the oven.
