She threatens them and runs them off. Meanwhile in Maryland Mary Jane stays a couple of nights at the chateau d'lugeoe. She enjoys the nightlife meeting up with two guys named Bill and Hasskins. She soon learns the men are using her for sex. But turning the tables on them, Mary murders them and adds them to the list of victims. Then the police get a warrant to search the manor and the creek. Upon appearing on the property, Cecilia is frightened they might try to convict her or someone else for the murder. The marshall finds traces of Cecilia's hair at the creek plus a cloth from a cloak.
