Ahmad takes Chava to the Bowery. He sees her locket clearly for the first time and looks at its contents. He pockets the paper, leaving the locket. Chava wakes up and is horrified at her violent actions. She also blames Ahmad for her lack of control. They argue and agree to never see each other again. Chava finds an abandoned alleyway and decides she has no choice but to destroy herself. However, when she sees that the commands are missing from the locket, she realizes that she must find a new master or risk losing control, so she asks Michael to marry her.

Meanwhile, Arbeely suggests that Ahmad start making jewelry at the forge to continue his artistic works. Ahmad is inspired and begins to make a silver filigreed necklace. Matthew continues to spend time at the tinsmith shop and catches the Jinni using his magic. Ahmad makes Matthew promise not to tell anyone and names the boy his apprentice.

An article in the paper describes Chava’s attack. Schaalman is depressed and frustrated about his dowsing spell. He poses as a retired rabbi interested in helping congregants at various synagogues. He charms them and asks about any Kabbalistic texts that could help him in his quest but soon learns that Michael’s uncle took them long ago.
