Three neophytes (Sam Concepcion, AJ Perez & Robi Domingo) are brought to a morgue for the final part of their initiation, while being dressed in lingeries. They are told to last three hours in the keep. An overeager neophyte snoops around the morgue, after a detached arm on a corpse, with the R.I.P. tattoo on the hand, comes to life. They manage to escape, but the arm still crawls and strangles their fraternity master. The hand is last seen crawling out of the man's mouth before blacking out.

A young mother (Jodi Sta. Maria) visits the wake of her daughter's classmate. A hand with R.I.P. tattoo on the hand was seen walking on the area also. As she went to a wake, a rabid dog bit her. Soon after, she finds the ghost of the dead child on her tail, seeking revenge after she stole the shoes of her daughter's classmate ( which caused the car accident that so caused the death and amputation of the feet of her daughter's classmate). She suffers hallucinations, pain and being haunted by Kaye's ghost, she later burns the shoes. A year later, she was seen in crutches, her leg amputated due to infection.

Once Rizza realizes the prank, she angrily shouts, "You're fired!" unaware that the real ghost is behind her inside the elevator. The episode ends with Eric finding her inside the elevator, traumatized by the ghost. She then suddenly becomes crazy.
