In this episode, Dickon spends most of his time around Samarra - first receiving another lesson in agility (and blueballing), then presenting her with the evidence on Primrose's involvement in Merek's murder. In the end, Dickon is able to invade the Knight's mind, but only gains enough control to persuade Samarra to change to a lighter attire, as well as tell him the terrifying story of her people's genocidal past.
