George’s grandmother (Barbara Barrie) shows up at the family’s house. She’s been asked to pay for the roof so she’s brought her own guy to check it out. He has a great ass. The old lady’s a hippie basically, and uptight Mom (Cynthia Stevenson) can’t stand her. She’s doing yoga with Reggie (Britt McKillup) and keeping her out of school to take her to the place where George died. They find Mom there.

At Breakfast, Rube (Mandy Patinkin) gives George a special Very Important Person Reap—a big rock-star. Mason (Callum Blue) is devastated. He’s got a lesser reap at the same place. Rube pressures Roxie (Jasmine Guy) into arranging to be there as a cop. George gets time off work but has no money for tickets to the concert. Roxie dresses her up as a groupie and she gets in right away. Mason gets thrown out by guards until a Goth Girl smells death on him and brings him in. Grandma reads all the clippings about George’s death, trying to keep George alive in her memory. They do a  Tibetan ritual without Mom, who is angry. She’s my daughter! Yes, and you were mine!

Daisy (Laura Harris) goes to church and meets Father Mathias (Tom McBeath), whom she confessed to in a previous episode. He is busy drinking. A boy and a girl are consecrating the confessional in their own way. The priest recognizes Daisy as the girl who stole the silver cross from the dead woman. He tells her the secret of life: You are born, you die, and you rot—it’s a great cosmic joke. Daisy proceeds to stab her hand and he watches it heal in front of him. She tells the priest her history as a Grim Reaper. The priest kicks the kids out of the confessional, then slips, falls head first into the baptismal font and drowns. He walks into the light and Daisy drops the silver cross into the confessional with his body. Later, she kisses Mason.

Roxie takes in George as a “friend of the Band” and Kyle Lowerdeck (Eddie Mills), George’s reap, comes in but no-one can get near him. Mason is drunk and telling all the Goth musicians his history as a Reaper and is lionized by them. They all want to have their souls reaped. George gets to be alone with Kyle, finally, and she reaps his soul. He goes on stage and begins to sing as a Graveling climbs around on the lights above. His ex-girlfriend pulls out a gun and shoots him, then turns the gun on his current girlfriend (Wendy Glenn), but Roxie shoots her down and Mason realizes she is the one he is supposed to reap, which he does. The Goths run in terror from him. George takes Kyle’s soul out to see the candlelight gathering for him. And the last shot is of George’s place of death, where her family has left a candle.
