  2. Nothing with "dark secrets" ever seems to end well. WHY did she shave off her hair?? I don't have sound on my work computer but I literally gasped when I saw the head shaving..

    1. Because the devil went into her and she has to make herself less attractive against Nivola, I guess so that she wouldn't sin like the sinful temptress that she is LOL I wonder if Gemma really shaved her locks in that scene, how do you fake that?
