In Episode 66, Emily tells the soap opera-style tale of Sister Virginia Maria (aka Marianna de Leyva y Marino) a nun that had an affair, birthed a child, and then helped her lover MURDER any witnesses. Then, Rachel takes us to Hugo, Oklahoma, and tells us about three stories of circus performers that were treated horribly because of their differences.

Hopefully, you're horrified!
