Complete story — includes the ending

While Sofie's absence is the topic of speculation at the carnival, Jonesy and Libby passionately consummate their mutual attraction. Ben locates Scudder's old hotel room in Damascus, where he has visions of a man acid-burning his face. Ben locates this man near the reception area and heals him, revealing Scudder. They elude Stroud and head to the carnival, where Scudder is violently coerced by Management into identifying Ben's enemy as Alexei Belyakov, Management's son. When Management attacks Scudder in rage, Ben comes to his father's aid and stabs Management repeatedly with his grandmother's trench knife. Brother Justin has visions of approaching death as somehow correlated with a Ferris wheel. An ambulance takes away another of the Crowes' maids who they claim has "a case of bad nerves." During a public radio broadcast, Brother Justin tears up a pre-approved sermon and improvises an incendiary jeremiad that indicts his superiors. Awards: Emmy nomination for "Outstanding Prosthetic Makeup for a Series, Miniseries, Movie or a Special". Emmy co-nomination for "Outstanding Art Direction for a Single-Camera Series".
