In Mayfair Witches season 2 episode 4, Rowan is healing after Ciprien sprayed her with something mysterious in the last episode. As she gathers herself, the Mayfair house slowly deteriorates without Lasher.

Rowan needs to rescue Jojo and Daphne, but her powers are weakening without Lasher, making it very difficult for her to succeed. Cortland's tricky behavior and Moira's ability to read minds create tension as Rowan looks for answers. Rowan asks Cortland for help and discovers an important clue that Julien’s spirit, trapped in an old Victrola, may help explain Lasher’s strange link to the family.

At the same time, Ciprien deals with his problems involving the Talamasca. He is right to be suspicious of Albrecht's betrayal when he finds out that no one knows where Lasher is. Albrecht's mysterious message comes in a wine bottle with a piece of paper that says "Taltos," which adds to the intrigue.

Ciprien is trying to figure things out when the Talamasca team from Amsterdam comes to arrest him, thinking he is involved in Albrecht's plans.

This subplot creates tension in the story by showing the Talamasca’s internal struggles and Ciprien’s risky situation. The mention of "Taltos" gives a hint about deeper secrets connected to the Mayfair family history.


Julien’s spirit and the family’s dark secrets

Rowan's search brings her to Dolly Jean and Evelyn, who explain their unusual agreement with Julien's spirit. Julien is stuck with the victrola in a magical place, where he still has relationships with the sisters even after he has died.

Rowan's finding highlights the strange relationships within the Mayfair family and their dependence on the supernatural. Rowan plans to enter Julien's world, despite the dangers, in hopes of finding out the truth about Lasher and her family's situation.


Lark’s Intrusion and the genetic puzzle

Lark, who used to be Rowan's partner, complicates things further. His interest in the DNA differences in Lasher's and Rowan's genes suggests a link between the Mayfairs and their special powers. Lark's secret actions, like testing Rowan's DNA without asking her, create possible conflicts that could greatly affect the story.
