Strange Angel

Jack sees his ambitions threatened as Agent Wallace grows increasingly suspicious of Jack's ties to Aleister Crowley. In an attempt to clear the air, Jack invites Wallace, General Braxton, and their military colleagues to the Parsonage for a summer dinner party - hoping to show them they have nothing to fear - but his best laid plans go awry as dark secrets are revealed and Ernest takes drastic steps to achieve transcendence.

Following the disastrous party at the Parsonage, Jack loses his security clearance and must strike a dangerous bargain with Wallace to be reinstated. With the police now investigating the Agape, the members' deepest secrets are revealed through a shocking betrayal. Meanwhile, Richard, Chiang and Mesulam are sent to London for a military research project, where Richard goes to great lengths to clear Jack's name. Devastating truths come to light, putting Jack and Susan's future in doubt, and creating the opening that Patty has been looking for.

Susan and Patty's relationship reaches a breaking point when Susan learns of her sister's indiscretions - nevertheless, they must join forces to use Virgil as a means to an end. After Marisol receives devastating news, she gains a new perspective on her relationship with Richard. Jack has a chance to get back into the military's good graces, but the conditions may be too tough to swallow. Yet with the Magus in jail, Jack's power within the Agape rises to new heights; however, the arrival of a new prospective tenant at the Parsonage threatens to change all that.
