Recap from the previous episode
The previous episode starts with the conversation between Mephisto and Shiro Fujimoto, with the latter requesting to become an Exwire to regain his free will slowly. Rin Okumura is seen watching in the background as he discovers Shiro's mindset at the time and how the demon is playing him, although his surrogate father still accepts the proposal.
The protagonist is then given a tour through the Asylum. Mephisto explains that this place and the Exorcists were created with a goal in mind, which involved developing a new perfect body for Lucifer. That character is shown in critical condition and merely surviving thanks to the Asylum's doctors, much to Rin's chagrin and disgust when discovering the truth.
The final part of the episode moves forward into the future when Yuri Egin meets Shiro once again while training as an Exorcist. But this time as an Exwire and before he becomes Father Fujimoto. Shiro destroys an Ent with ease and later shows contempt at Yuri's compassion for demons, thus ending the episode with another small appearance by Satan.
What to expect from Blue Exorcist: The Blue Night Saga episode 3?
Blue Exorcist: The Blue Night Saga episode 3 will probably continue with Rin Okumura's time travel and feature more of Mephisto and his actions forty years ago. Moreover, the next episode is going to show Shiro and Yuri's past and how they came to be in the present-day series.
