Synopsis:
Father Craemer meets with various members of the Suicide Squad. A fight breaks out in the cafeteria when Major Victory attacks Doctor Light whom he blames for the death of one of the Force of July. The fight is defused by Jewelee, who has been hit in the face with a pie. Feeling left out, Doctor Light gives himself a pie in the face.
Craemer is also called to offer spiritual help to a suspect with knowledge of the voodoo cult called the Loa. The informant is the victim of spontaneous combustion.
After a meeting between Craemer and Waller's sister Mary White, the reverend councils Amanda to ensure that she doesn't continue making the mistakes which led to the Janus Directive.
