Dr. Jekyll and Lanyon inspect Susannah, and see she is suffering from lashes given to her by her brothers. Jekyll leaves after noticing that Susannah has a close resemblance to the woman he watched from his youth. Later, Jekyll sees a man kissing on Susannah and grabs the man and throws him down the stairs, but when he turns around, Susannah is gone. At Flora's, Susannah approaches Jekyll and propositions him and he accepts and Flora has Johnny bring Jekyll a drink. Susannah takes Jekyll into a private room and she smokes some of his drug and tells him her fantasy of getting revenge on her step-father for raping and beating her. Johnny walks in with three drinks and Jekyll tells him Susannah wants to do unkind things to him and then forces Johnny into a chair. Jekyll then makes Johnny smoke some of the drug and has Susannah take Johnny's pants off. Jekyll then has Johnny tell Susannah to take her clothes off and then has Susannah and Johnny have sex while he watches. Jekyll goes back to Flora's and she tells him Susannah is busy, but Liza is free. He pushes Liza aside and barges in on Susannah who is with a client. Elisabeth Jekyll goes to Susannah's place of residence and finds Johnny hanging upside down, bloody, while Susannah smokes from the drug pipe.
