Episode 2 opens up showing Ji-a possessed by her grandfather, heading to her grandmother’s house. Meanwhile, A-mi reveals to Dong-mi that her father has passed away as their civil war continues. After leaving the apartment, A-mi catches Ji-a in the stairwell, and she can see she is acting odd, so follows her.
