Lucifer is amazed at the treasure chest and what he sees inside. A shiny green object catches his eye.
Lucifer bends over and picks up the shiny green object. It is an antique jeweled ring. The inside of the ring has an emerald cut jewel surrounded by gold. He gets a sensation to put it on. Cordelia tries to stop him, but it is too late. He is soon in a small trance.
Cordelia grabs a hold of Lucifer’s hands and tries to snap him out of it. Soon enough, he is. He tells her that he felt enduring love, family conflict, and heartbreaking loss. Cordelia tells him that the ring is cursed. Lucifer tries to take the ring off but cannot. He knows he can easily take it off, but he’ll show his true self to Cordelia. He decides to keep it on.
Cordelia asks Lucifer to help her close the lid on the treasure chest. After doing so, she removes a skeletal key from a drawer and locks the chest.
Cordelia gives the key to Lucifer asking him to hold onto it as she trusts him. Holding the key, Lucifer sees it is an ominous key crowned with a skull, and not a scratch in sight.
Cordelia then escorts Lucifer to her bedroom as she wants to show him more that came from her adventures as a pirate. She shows him the stained-glass window of their pirate ship out at seas. Also, next to her desk is a sculpture of Cordelia’s head. These were created for the Thebe family upon their return.
Lucifer heads back to his room afterwards and takes out the key that Cordelia gave him. He places it inside his display case. He begins to wonder if there is another reason why he is collecting these keys. He knew there were five. But what made Cordelia talk about her past and then give him this key, he wondered. Lucifer begins to think his father might have something to do with this.
Later on in the day, Marina, the Royal Envoy, pays a visit to the chateau. She is not happy.
