As Marian Kitt continues to second guess her powers, she decides to move into a new apartment, thus pulling away from her colleagues in The Others. The house however, appears to harbor a malevolent presence hiding within the folds of the bedroom wallpaper. Through the course of events, Marian's worry intensifies when it appears that Albert McGonagle and Warren Day appear to be stalking her.
Meanwhile, Doctor Mark Gabriel's empathic abilities prove to be of great torment and as the responsibility of harboring such power grows, he seeks solace in the arms of Ellen Polaski.
