Over by the statue, some big stuff happens. Bram and some more of Jacob’s chosen people follow Benry back into the statue. They open fire on Fake Locke, to no avail. Bram actually finds a bullet that flattened out when it hit him. And then, Smoke Attack! Smokey is absolutely savage here, slaughtering everybody. It’s particularly gruesome when it snaps one guy’s spine. Bram sprinkles some ash in a circle and stands inside it, and Smokey can’t touch him. You see this in magic – an unbroken circle offers protection. More specifically, we saw it last season. There was a circle of ash around Jacob’s cabin, but Ilana and her people broke the circle when they stepped on it. It was either there to keep something in, or to keep something out. Either way, probably a bad idea to go smudging it. It might be worth noting that as he’s standing in the circle, a beam of while light shines down right above Bram’s head.
