Those Red Ants are Nasty.
Chad makes contact with Roxie one last time in a dream, telling her that she has to follow the clues. When she wakes up, she tries calling him repeatedly, but gets no answer. Meanwhile Joanna is with Kat who is at work, and they cart in Chad's body. Both of them are shocked and decide they should tell Roxie right away. Roxanne finds that Chad left his cell phone in her kitchen when Kat and Jo walk in. They say they have something to tell her, and she asks them is Chad is dead. They're surprised that she knows, and she explains that he told her in a dream.
When Kat's at home, her daughter gets a cut on her arm. When she uses her finger to put ointment on her cut, she somehow heals it completely. Her daughter is seriously impressed and runs off. Katherine is shocked and awed.
Roxie wants to go to Chad's funeral, the one she saw in her vision, but is not invited by his family. Joanna goes to work in order to get Penny for a picnic when she meets her replacement, Max. It turns out that he's very talented and has worked at some great places. He also wants an interview from Joanna for the paper about her ordeal with Pastor Dunn. She's angry, and she leaves. At Penny's picnic/lunch break, Jo tells of her telekinetic powers. Penny's reaction is extremely skeptical. She's not buying it. Kat's at the hospital when Eleanor arrives after almost being run over by a truck as a consequence of running into the street. She was shocked to see Darryl's face on Television. Eleanor asks Katherine to take care of her cuts with her healing powers, and tells her that she can see the magic all over her, it's just a part of her. Kat looks at the medical chart, tells her she doesn't believe in that stuff and when she turns back around, Eleanor is gone.
Roxie is looking for signs from Chad, and starts off with a hammer to return to Darryl Van Horne. She takes it to him and asks him if he has anything to say. Darryl walks on hot coals while talking to Rox, and convinces her to go to Chad's funeral even if his family says not to attend. This turns out to be a good idea, and the scene from her vision takes place. Afterwards, Chad's parents yell at her and try to drag her out of the cemetery. She breaks free, dumping Chad's father in an empty burial plot. Mia suggests they leave when Roxie sees her next sign, a T-shirt on a woman--the same T-shirt Chad was wearing in Roxie's dream. It turns out the woman was Chad's guitar instructor for the past 6 weeks, and he made her a song. The woman gives Roxie the CD with a recording of the song on it. It tells her to release herself.
Joanna's at a bar when her replacement comes in asking her questions again. He suggests that in order to recreate what she did, she needs to recreate what she was feeling at the time. In order to do this, Joanna thinks she needs to be very scared, so she rides a Ferris Wheel all the way to the top, stops it, and unlatches the bar. She uses this as a chance to makes her powers work, but unfortunately Max is riding in the seat with her and interrupts her. He tells her that she's got some issues and what she went through hurt her--She should get therapy. Joanna realizes that she needs to deal with what happened.
Kat brings Bun to Eleanor's house in an attempt to return her memory. She learns that they share the same powers, and they both have five children, like they're leading the same lives or walking down the same path. She also learns that her powers must be real and she would like to learn more about them. Eleanor says this will be a crash course, and gives Bun something to drink. When she's done drinking, Bun is numb from the waist-up, and Eleanor chants something and sticks a metal pole into Bun's neck. Kat is horrified. Eleanor is purging Bun's body of Darryl's dark magic--red ants. The red ants took her memories. While Bun is being cleaned out, the other two women stomp on the ants, trying to kill as many as possible. Eleanor pulls out the poles she stuck into Bun's neck, and she remembers everything. She also decides that she needs to stay with Eleanor and talk about Darryl Van Horne. Kat is way too freaked out and leaves.
Roxanne visits Darryl Van Horne again, and this time he feels that to get over Chad's death, she should sleep with him. She remembers that Darryl may not be the best person to get advice from at the moment and goes home to "release herself" by herself. Lastly, Roxanne deals with Chad's death while listening to his CD and putting away his stuff into a cardboard box. She's letting him go.
||Things I Liked||
• Darryl having a commercial.
• Those sick red ants.
• Kat's healing powers.
• Joanna's crazy Ferris Wheel moment. What was she thinking doing that with Max in the same seat as her?? Although I was amused.
• Darryl walking on the hot coals. The scene was pretty somehow.
||Things I Didn't Like||
• Eleanor almost getting herself killed/run over by a truck.
• Chad's song. It was sweet that he wrote a song for Rox, but I think it kind of blew.
||Things I'm Not Sure About||
• Roxie pushing Chad's father into an open grave. Funny, or not funny?
• I wonder if Max is Joanna's new love interest.
