Lou, I still can't believe you're a rougarou.
But you own a pizza shop!
Called Lou Garou's.

I'll keep your secret if you keep mine.
It can be dangerous for anyone who knows.
Yeah, maybe that's for the best.
[Missy groaning]
Gah, I can't watch!

This is crazy. A minute ago, she was dying.
Listen, eh, there isn't much time.
Part of the rougarou curse is that she's gonna go through...
- [Missy groaning] - [Lou grunts]
- the Craving. - [Missy roars]
Please say it's for, like, shrimp.
Yeah, kinda.
It's an uncontrollable urge to eat little kids.
That's not the same at all!
You actually "feast on the bones of children"?
I thought that was just a story!
It's just an urge to eat kids the first time ya...
- [Missy roars] - turn!
- What do we do?! - I'll try to hold her off.
But if I can't, she'll go after a kid she loves.
I know, I know, curses suck.
Does Missy even hang out with little kids?
My baby sister! Ah! Missy babysits her all the time.

Stanley, listen to me. You find your sister

Well, Stan, my man, let's just say poker nights

Y-Your little sister is gonna be fine. We'll get her.
No. Soleil's right.
Missy has the strength of her Loa, Ogoun.
We're never gonna be strong enough to beat her.
But he is!
That's it.
Ogoun is the only one
who's strong enough for Missy.
We should try calling on him.
Do you know how to do it?
I think so, but we're gonna need offerings.
Okay, you guys go.
