Four months later, Blake has a bad dream. He sees two groups of people sitting at a table. Then he sees two messy people, who explain a bit of magic. Then he sees a girl with a checkered scarf talking to a young man. Then he sees a girl with a rabbit. Then he sees an aboriginal woman brushing a girl's hair. Then he sees a man sitting on a throne and a talking dog, who offers Blake a deal and tell him to wake up. Blake wakes up shaking, so goes to the bathroom to calm down. Except he can't calm down because there is a girl in the mirror who tells Blake "Run. Get to the house, now. Molly's dead. You're next." She breaks the mirror, and Blake runs.
