Alois has survived the stabbing from the last episode, but still suffers from the horrible injury. When Alois refuses to let Hannah change his bandages, Claude comes in to do so. Alois asks Claude if he is enticed by the blood and Claude admits his desire to devour Alois and smiles for the first time, which disturbs Alois. Later, Alois interrupts Hannah as she is cleaning, crying on top of her and ordering her to take him to Ciel Phantomhive. In a separate room, Claude neatly folds a document into a ring after the triplet servants whisper something into his ear. The scene shifts to Hannah driving a carriage with a bleeding Alois inside. In his flashback, it appears Alois's real name is Jim McCain and the red-haired boy (shown in the first episode) is his little brother, Luca. Alois confesses to his younger brother that he wishes the villagers would die because of how they were treated after becoming orphans. Believing his brother has the power to accomplish such a thing, Luca declares, "Yes, Your Highness." That night, they discover all the inhabitants of the village are dead, which causes Alois to erupt in a delirious joy. Luca is initially happy with him, but seems concerned. Together, they raid the dead for their personal belongings. After a while, Alois feels a chill and decides it's time to leave. He goes on a search for his brother only to find him dead. He then screams with anguish saying that he doesn't want to be alone. Years later, Alois and some other boys are brought to Lord Trancy, a pedophile. After being rejected by Trancy, Alois overhears a method to summon a wish-granting fairy, but instead of a fairy, Alois encounters Claude, but is unable to think of a wish. Alois uses his sex appeal to win over Trancy, and presumably some time after that, he makes a contract with Claude. In the present, the carriage crashes and Grell arrives to take Alois' soul. Alois starts crawling away as Hannah fends off Grell. More flashbacks of encounters between Alois and Claude are shown. In one of the flashbacks, Claude told him that it was Sebastian who destroyed the village as an order from his former master, though his current master is Ciel Phantomhive. It is this information that caused Alois to seek out Ciel and make him suffer, so that he can make Sebastian suffer for killing Luca. Back in the present, Claude arrives just in time to rescue Alois from a hungry wolf, causing Alois to break down on his knees and explain that he needs Claude more than anything. Claude kneels to touch his master's face, but suddenly crushes his head, killing him out of disgust for his unwanted affection, saying that he could never work up an appetite for a soul that would give its love to a mere butler. Taking Alois's ring, Claude states that there is still an use for Alois's soul. Grell appears and shows no hostility towards Claude but has taken interest in the state of affairs. After the credits roll, a once-impaled Hannah looms over Alois's body, gouges out Alois's left eye and whispers something about his wish, putting her face near Alois's affectionately.
