Agnes goes to a shop to buy some pennyroyal, which is a known abortifacient. She feels conflicted about terminating her pregnancy but fears failing her child as she failed her sisters. The Greek shopkeeper, Madame Zina, is also a tarot reader and midwife. She foresees that Agnes will end up keeping the baby.
The following day at the library, Bella delves into research related to the black tower and a possible way to call back the Last Three witches. Much to her surprise, Cleo Quinn arrives and presses Bella for more information about the tower. Bella shares her belief that magic might still exist, hidden in storybooks and rhymes. Quinn volunteers to help Bella ferret out this power. The two spend the rest of the day poring over old volumes to find more secrets of witchcraft.
Meanwhile, Juniper has happily ensconced herself at suffragette headquarters, where the group plans a demonstration: they will hold a march during the town’s Centennial Fair. Their planning is interrupted when conservative mayoral candidate and current city councilman Gideon Hill arrives and informs the ladies that the City Council has voted unanimously to ban the rally. Juniper secretly decides to organize a demonstration anyway.
