What "Salem" 5-th episode about
Following Mary's public chastening, the recently-minted Magistrate Hathorne steps up his bid to wrest power over the citizenry of Salem from her, forcing Mary to once again compel her bewitched husband to take action. When Hathorne levels a not-so-veiled threat against Anne Hale - which he mitigates with an unappealing solution - it prompts the young Witch to seek Mary's council. She receives sound advice... but it comes at a fearful and unappealing cost. Mercy Lewis' grisly preparations to enact her revenge reach new heights, drawing two reluctant participants closer in the process, and forcing the hand of one of her increasingly tenuous allies. Meanwhile, as John Alden continues to pursue his righteous task, his search for answers yields valuable results, and Mary takes the fight directly to her newest foes... with surprising results.
