For help Beaumont turns to the devious Legendre, a man who runs his mill mind controlling people he has turned into zombies. After Beaumont uses Legendres zombie potion on Madeleine, he is dissatisfied with her emotionless being and wants her to be changed back. Legendre has no intention of doing this and he drugs Beaumont as well to add to his zombie collection. Meanwhile, grieving widower Neil is convinced a local priest that Madeleine may still be alive and he seeks her out.
