Notes de l’épisode
The gate is the tomb of a betrayed general, and the talisman has been screaming his name this whole time. Heart is his key. They set the stone in the door and something crawls out — an eye, a robe, a rhyming corpse called Der Tib who remembers being murdered and wants a crystal soul to reap. Beetle's mother is waiting on the other side with a knife at Heart's throat. The Rotgoons have one finale in them. Make it count.

Giant spiders chirping like birds. A nest that drops its catch and pulls them up half-alive to finish later. Heart gets cocooned. Beetle shoots him trying to save him. In the bones of a long-dead delver they find another dungeon-runner's pack — and a truth about Heart's father that the party has been skirting for months.

Talim finds out he has been dead longer than he thought, and he is starting to count the seconds. Adrift on the river, the goons meet Tevok — a fey made of hands and mouths — who builds them a fake farm and a fake dwarven host named Kepper just to sit at a table with them. The murder mystery is real. The friendship is not.

Four goons wake up in a theatre of the mind, and Croc is in the next seat smoking a cigar. He offers them their lives back for one small favor: make it whole. Each of them walks through the worst memory they ever buried — a burning church, a betrayed caravan, a mother's cigar ash — and comes out the other side owing a debt.

Queens opens. Music, floats, skeletal guards holding back the crowd. The cart is set. Food is on the grill. A crystal-headed census construct floats past every stall with a kobold skull flickering behind its face. And somewhere in the audience, a vendor is selling what he says are candies. They hatch spiders.

Whoever took her wanted the stone at her throat, not the girl — and a tentacle-father is still looking for its son.
