Determined to find out what’s going on, Portia sets out to do some detective work at a mysterious warehouse where she runs into Macky, who is then is badly injured.

Macky escapes from the warehouse with Portia who tries to keep Macky conscious on the way home by focussing on the story of Joseph and Pharaoh’s Dreams.

Later, because Macky is sick, Portia must take the lead in foiling Marcus’s plot and Antonius's daughter Sophia tells a frightened Felix how Jesus raised Jairus’s daughter back to life to help her brother to learn to trust God.
