[Pat] Previously on Shining Vale...

This is herbal tea.

It comes from the herbs

in my garden.

Dad's afraid of Roxy, and he calls me Button.

"Button"? Good gravy.

[Terry] Button's right. You aren't normal.

None of you are.

So I'm back to where I started.

You hear voices?

I'm Rosemary.

Did the ghost come back?

[Pat] No, her name is Ruth.

[Nellie] I'm Nellie.

Then you're miles from where you started.

[Terry] As your mayor,

this whole town's gonna be reborn.

This is a great speech.

-You are a writer? -My mother is, so I am not.

The devil wrote my book when I was possessed.

You're talking about Satan.

He's interested in overthrowing governments

and disrupting world order, not writing shitty chick lit.

[Terry] It is Ruth's famous chocolate "mouse."

There is a teeny, tiny risk of pregnancy psychosis.

Quickly now, before Doctor sends you to the baths.

They put a baby in me.

I'll show them what real crazy looks like.

-That's my house. -[Jake] Her mom came back,

but Daisy says there is one way we can stop her.

[Ruth] I got you a present.

My grandma smuggled that heirloom in her 'einie.

Your baby gives us all hope for a better world.

[all] Hail Pat.

I'm looking for Father Ennio.

Perhaps you're mistaken.

[Jake] Give me a sign.

[Pat] Read page 72.

This room is the portal to hell.

[Ruth] No one would believe her.

Everyone thinks she's nuts.

-[Robyn] It's all about... -[both] ...his baby.

[laughter]

Hell is right.

There's so much darkness in this house,

and it will only get worse,

but there is one way out.

Does it involve killing my family?

Absolutely not.

Does it involve killing myself?

Yes, that's the one.

Thanks. I'll take the stairs.

Patricia, please. You helped me to move on.

Let me do the same for you.

We'll make it look like an accident.

Your family will hear the thud,

Otherwise, they have to wait for the smell.

Smell this, bitch.

I bet my family's looking for me right now.
