Treatment
As Jacques Paris chissels strange symbols on the lid of a wooden

aging priest administers the last rites to a yellow fever victim in a
slave’s shack while the worried relatives look on.
When Jacques' blade accidently cuts his hand Marie reacts as if
striken herself and when a drop of Jacque's blood spills inside the
box, the yellow fever victim breathes his last and Marie rushes from
the room shaken. Pere Antoine joins her outside the shack.
Convinced that she's fatigued from the long day of visiting fever
victims, he sends her home.
Marie finds Jacques collapsed on the floorin his studio,
conscious, but unable to talk. Marie examines the box Jacques was
working on and discovers a note with the name of the voodoun Dr.
John on it.
Marie brings the box to Dr. John and tells him to take the "fix"
off her husband. He tells her that he can't since the loa (spirits) are
using Jacques to get to her. He tells her that she has a spiritual
power and offers to help her realize it. When she shuns his offer he
tells her about a job opportunity as a hair dresser for Judge Fouquet's
wife and gives her a charm to help her land the job.
