The investigation into the three women found in the crypt continues, confirming Magnus' theory that they are much more than they appear. Ashley's hunt for contraband creatures yields mixed results.

The Big Guy is reading Gone With The Trash, a comic space adventure by Patrick Lussier and Brad Rines - a pair of MacGyver vets. Rines also worked on Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis and Stargate Universe.
Gregory Magnus: Once you enter this door, you are on a path that cannot be reversed.
Will: Look, let me put it this way - if you really were 1,200-years-old, then there's no way that I would understand anything you're saying right now. How do you explain that? There is no logical or physical way that your memories can be real - and the sooner you accept that, the sooner we can continue to make progress.
Danu: Because the truth will out eventually.
Will: It always does.
(The Big Guy looks up at the overhead monitor and sees Will and the three Morrigan)
Big Guy: They raise my hackles.
Helen: In a good way?
Big Guy: You know there is no good way. (gestures toward the semi-dissected Keeper) Progress?
Helen: Nothing concrete. Base physiology is essentially human. The DNA scans indicate significant mutations to key chromosomes - likely resulting in increased adrenal production, heightened strength and reflexes … as well as this lovely appearance. All in all, be glad you missed it.
Big Guy: I'm not.
Helen: You were recuperating, we managed.
Big Guy: You were lucky - and I am fine now.
Helen: I'll be the judge of that.
Big Guy: Yes, doctor.
Big Guy: It is old … (sniffs and tastes the ring) … very old.
Helen: That's what I thought - which is why I'll be needing a ride later tonight.
Big Guy: Where are we going?
Helen: To see if your "hackles" are right.
Will: I want you to go back further. Find a memory of something that happened before the creatures took you.
Danu: Moonlight.
Tatha: It's cold. I'm in a field.
Caird: I can sense the dead
Danu: Their souls … extinguished.
Caird: Only we remain.
(Helen and Wexford study a fifth century tapestry reproduction)
Helen: Now what are they being offered here - Blood of Christ?
Wexford: Oh, please, nothin' so cliché. No, this design is the symbol of the Cabalis Nocturnum, a quaint little sub-sect of Romano-British knights from the early middle ages - charged with protecting the world from dark influences, I believe. These warriors likely drank from the chalice as a gesture of loyalty and faith to their cause.
Helen: Now, who is the man offering it to them - a priest?
Wexford: Bigger. Think the most powerful man in Britain at the time. Hint : not King Arthur.
Helen: Merlin.
Wexford: Mm-m-m! These knights were probably rejects from Arthur's court. Desperate to prove themselves worthy, they accepted a hideous task : fighting the dark forces unleashed by Merlin's nemesis, Morgan Le Fay - evil sorceress, avowed enemy of Arthur, all-around mean-spirited bitch.
Helen: And … (points to three women just behind Le Fay) who are they?
Wexford: Mm-m-m-hm! Those would be the Morrigan - emissaries created by Morgan to wreak havoc against Arthur's armies. The very embodiment of her hellish powers. Legend has it their very presence on the battlefield would steal the souls of Arthur's soldiers. They've popped up in literature throughout the ages - most notably as a trio of hags in Macbeth. You know boil, boil, toil and all that.
Helen: So, the Morrigan were witches.
Wexford: Oh-oh, no, love, they were … the witches.
