This episode reveals that Logan is extremely allergic to poison ivy. He develops a severe rash, fever, and stomach pains after confronting a suspect in the murders, and begins to believe that she may have put a curse on him. The symptoms were in fact caused by poison ivy oil on a candle that Logan picked up.
