Last time on Reign, we saw the boy that was sitting on the window warning Bash that he must choose someone to sacrifice or else the pagan sacrificers would choose for him.
When Bash wakes up from a nightmare, Mary finds the boy's necklace on her pillow and she assumes that it's a gift from Bash that he left in her form. One major thing that has to happen that day was the Henry was scheduled to return from Paris and Francis is relieved that the courtiers will finally stop swarming around him and he laments to Olivia that he doesn't trust Mary. Everyone becomes extremely excited for Henry's return and Olivia gets scolded by Catherine for taking too long to get Francis in bed. Kenna then takes offense at Mary presuming her to be a fool and the Queen of Scotland and sets her sight on Bash.
Mary then goes and talks with Bash about the gift she assumed he gave her but then becomes worried once he sees it and demands to talk with both Francis and Mary about the situation. He says that it's a threat from the Pagans that he was suppose to choose someone to sacrifice but didn't and the Pagans have decided to choose her as the person to be sacrificed. Francis thinks that the pagans are just trying to get at Bash through Mary and while she pledges to do some digging around the castle to see if anyone saw a strange figure go into her room, Francis tells Bash that he doesn't blame him for cutting the bodies down. The reason that he's so upset is that there are too many secrets clinging to the castle walls these days. Kenna, furious that Henry brought Diane back instead of breaking up with her in Paris like he promised. When she refuses to fall for his physical advances, he confesses that Diane will be staying at the cottage that resides on the grounds, though since that needs renovations, she'll be within castle walls for a while.

Bash visits Diane, a former pagan herself, obviously worried about the debt that he's been forced to repay. She laments that the faith that she once held on so tightly to has become unrecognizable and warns Bash that if anyone at the castle knew of their connection to the pagans through her past, they would be burned at the stake and called heretics. As Mary is already marked and Francis will blame Bash if anything happens to her, Diane suggests that her son choose someone, settle up his debts, and learn to harden his heart toward Mary, since he's only being allowed to stay there due to her being in Henry's good graces. Across the castle, Mary is woken by a bleeding stag's head that someone strung up to her bed, the face of the dead animal looking her right in the eye. The way that those responsible were able to do their deed without being noticed by her? Poppy, which they put in the drinks of Mary and her guard. She also finds that she has the symbol from the necklace burned onto her hand, making Francis think that it might be dipped in some type of poison.
