Carmilla deals with the consequences of Laura's choice. What was taken is restored, what was bargained, granted. A journey, ending. I'm not crying you are.

Ooops - so after THAT particular indiscretion, our heroes get to work on Plan B, since Plan A is rife with emotional baggage that probably should be unpacked, just not at this particular moment. Demon Summoning 101, anyone?

Apparently an avid viewer of Laura in the Loop and SNN from all the way at Princeton, Betty does her best Elle Woods and sends the crew abseiling into the pit to collect the next talisman.

When her plans go decidedly south, Laura is forced to act. And it gets messy ...

In which creativity is applied to a situation screaming out for it, Jp 3.0 finds a way for our heroes to listen in at Casa Dean again.

So remember when Laura said that all of the talismans had a deep connection to whatever carries the most personal baggage for her? Yikes at this last one. YIKES.

Their hands forced by LaFontaine's excellent application of elephant tranqs, Laura and Carmilla attempt to make the most of their new housemate ... an exorcism ensues.

Showing up just in the nick of time to stop Carmilla from accidentally setting The Dean free, Mattie, ethereal agent of Ereshkigal, steps in to have a chat with her maker.

After Jp 3.0's stunning revelation, Laura is back to thinking The Library is out to get her ... or at least morally compromise her ... so that's fun. Meanwhile, LaFontaine tries to avoid getting bitten by Carmilla.

So it turns out the (not) Upside Down also features some ... interesting figures from Laura's past.

Mel and Kirsch have differing opinions on how awesome LaFontaine is.

The Dean discusses consequences. Puzzles are had, and genius strikes from the mouth of the least enthused.

In which our heroes realize how epically screwed they are. Mel wants a rescue, and our heroes have to come up with a plan to save everyone.

Laura has to deal with a worried father and an increasingly complicated puzzle, only to discover it was wrecked from the beginning.

Surrounded by squishy emotions and hormones to boot, LaFontaine's quest to save Perry reaches some very interesting conclusions. Because avoiding feelings is totally a thing.

Stuck in a faerie circle, the Dean plays her hand, and her emotional manipulation, and her very clever application of many, many hurtful words. Our heroes are in for a rough night ...

The Dean suffers a setback. Laura makes the most of an opportunity and Carmilla can do nothing but watch.

Under what could be a siege or just some very aggressive extra-library maneuvers, our heroes' only chance at survival seems to be to go in "a room full of knives." Will they take the leap?

In which some much needed scientific evidence of the "Two Idiots in Love" phenomena is observed. Our heroes have houseguests.

Death isn't all it's cracked up to be, especially in the minioning career path. Our heroes have some trouble on their hands with Danny and Theo, until an unexpected figure from Laura's past appears.

With his daughter safely rescued, Sherman Hollis is ready to take Laura and get the h-e-double hockey sticks outta dodge. Only, does Laura want that?

Glitchus Interruptus! With the help of a library glitch, our heroes get a sneak peek at what's going on at Casa Dean and realize things are getting worse. LaFontaine and Carmilla try to make a plan, Laura has a decision to make ...
