Victoria promises to haunt him until his last pathetic day unless he does exactly what she says. Conrad shows up at the cabin with a bag full of torture devices. Victoria instructs her hubby to do something he’s probably wanted to do for a long time. She wants Conrad to beat her up.

He takes off into the woods just before the cavalry arrives with Conrad, who plays the part of a worried husband. Emily catches the tail end of this performance on her laptop. Needless to say, she’s stunned at how brilliantly Victoria has just turned the tables.
