Carnivale, Episode 6

A fascinating and chilling season premiere. As the spiritual powers of Ben Hawkins evolve, the entity Management exposes him to a vision. Ben must identify and conquer his nemesis: Brother Justin.

Ben travels to Alamogordo to seek out a former preacher residing in an asylum. The preacher warns him about a mysterious tattooed man that both Ben and Brother Justin see in their dreams.

When Carnivale sets up show in Ingram, Texas, Ben sets out to find some people who knew Scudder. At Carnivale, Sofie refuses to read Ben's future, but the cards reveal something without Sofie's assistance.

Still held captive in the moonshiners' camp, Ben meets his blind and elderly grandmother, who reveals some family secrets and a mysterious face of death.

When the Carnivale stops outside Creed, Oklahoma, they receive an uninvited visitor. Rita Sue bails out Stumpy for his gambling debts, but he bets (and loses) all of the money on a fight anyway.

On the road to Damascus, Nebraska, Samson and the troupe stop to help when they run into a rival troupe that has fallen on hard times. In Mintern, Dolan tries to help Iris and Justin.

When Carnivale arrives in Damascus, Ben gets closer to finding his father when another vision leads him to the town's seedy hotel. Meanwhile, Bishop McNaughton arrives at Brother Justin's new residence.

Ben and Samson have a heated argument over some bad news that Ben tells him about the death of Management, and Samson learns from Ruthie about seeing Stroud abduct Scudder.

While on his trail of Stroud, Ben comes across Jones and Libby, the victims of a vigilante group. Back at Carnivale, Ruthie has another possession by the deceased Lodz.

Following another one of Ben's visions, he and Joney set out to find Stroud, and they soon arrive in Wyoming, where they finally learn the name and location of Ben's nemesis.

When Samson announces that the carnival's next stop is the Christian camp of New Canaan, Lila and Stumpy challenge him. Jones returns and tells Samson what he and Ben found about Brother Justin.

In the cliff-hanging season finale, Samson devises a grand plan by scheming with Ben, and the entire troupe to lure Brother Justin to Carnivale for his confrontation with Ben.
