* The Deep One hauntings at the Lovecraft Museum were intended as a con game by Victor Blackman to attract tourists, scare off investors, and revive interest in the Literature/CthulhuMythos. Unfortunately, Lovecraft's writings turn out to be based on fever dreams the author had of the ''actual'' Outer Gods. One of them, the Crawling Chaos Nyarlathotep, used the museum as a front to revive a Lovecraft cult and attempt to awaken Cthulhu with human sacrifices. Upon seeing "Stanley Pickman's" true form, the poor Mr. Blackman loses his mind.

* The Hound finally makes its debut after Salem decides that RWBYJNPR and their family need more direct surveillance. Everyone, ''[[OOCIsSerious including Luthor]]'', is [[MassOhCrap visibly unnerved]]'' when it starts speaking. And given that this thing WasOnceAMan, there's no telling what kind of creatures Salem could create now.

* Unbeknownst to Ozpin, Ironwood has revived his plan to use the [[FantasticNuke Dust Nuke]]. He plans to use it to force Brainiac to place the captive Remnantian cities on a habitable world and then detonate the nuke once they are free, killing Brainiac and all of the other captives in the process. The plan hinges on the idea that Brainiac must believe that Ironwood is willing to sacrifice everyone. The scary part is, Ironwood is perfectly willing to sacrifice trillions of innocent lives in order to save what is left of Remnant even though he is perfectly aware that doing so is effectively crossing the MoralEventHorizon. He willing to go so far because he sees that the other cities are [[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman not his people and thus not his responsibility]] and that killing them is far more [[BetterToDieThanBeKilled merciful]] than allowing them to remain as Brainiac's guinea pigs.

* The Spectre decides to introduce himself to Salem by ''ripping her heart from her chest and crushing it right in front of her''. It doesn't kill her, but for the first time in millennia she actually felt pain and fear from this encounter. The Spectre then promises that while he may not kill her in the way she deserves, she just got a taste of what awaits her in the afterlife. Salem is left visibly rattled by the encounter.

* In order to fully rid Penny of Brainiac's virus without losing Penny's soul in the process, Cyborg must directly interface his systems with hers. While he is certain of his plans success, it is also not without considerable risks. Should he fail, he might not only end up losing Penny but he might also end up exposing his own systems to the virus. One shudders to think what sort of damage a Brainiac-possessed Cyborg would be capable of.

* Kilowogg mentions that the losses suffered during the assault on Brainiac's ship has left the Green Lanterns weakened as it will take some time to find and train new recruits. The lessened presence of the Green Lantern Corp will undoubtedly lead to increased intergalactic crime and the Sinestro Corp will likely try to take advantage of the power vacuum to expand their influence in the galaxy. To make things worse, it's possible that the other Lantern Corps could be dragged into the impeding conflict, potentially sparking a full-scale Lantern War. The [[ComicBook/BlackestNight implications]] of that are disturbing...

It works and Willow can feel her head start to clear; however, this brings her very little comfort because it only reminds her that what shes going through is ''all too real.''
