MoreAngela becomes restless as her daughter's condition worsens while the demon targets innocent people. Also: Father Tomas gets a visitor from his past; Marcus receives guidance from an unlikely source; and an unsanctioned exorcism is debated.
MoreThe exorcism begins, but the Demon counter attacks with secrets of its own. Elsewhere: the demon's manipulations cause conflict within the Rance family.
MoreCasey's story goes public, causing a media frenzy for the Rance family and throwing Father Tomas into the spotlight. Elsewhere: Father Bennett attends a papal planning event and Marcus scours the city's underbelly for answers.
MoreFamily bonds start to break as the daughter remains missing. Also: Marcus requests Mother Bernadette's help with a new problem; news of Casey's possession goes public and Father Bennett is put in danger while investigating the Tattersal corporation.
MoreMore conflict surfaces as Marcus, Tomas and Mother Bernadette race to defeat the demon. Also: the church's enemies get aggressive as the Pope's visit approaches; Angela encounters a familiar face from her past; and Kat ponders a new future.
MoreA potential tragedy surfaces right before Pope Sebastien arrives and Marcus has to intervene. Also: Tomas gets a life-changing opportunity, but his past mistakes may stop it from materializing, and a new problem threatens the Rance family.
MoreIn the Season 1 finale, the demon tries to destroy Angela Rance and her family and Marcus and Tomas try to save them while the church's enemies organize against Pope Sebastian.
