The next morning, Guy explains the scratches covering her body by claiming that he did not want to miss " baby night" and had sex with her while she was passed out. In a dreamlike state, she hallucinates being raped by a demonic presence ( Satan) as Guy, the Castevets, and other Bramford tenants watch. Soon after, she grows dizzy and passes out. Rosemary consumes a bit more to mollify him, then discreetly discards the rest. When Rosemary complains hers has a chalky "under-taste" and does not finish it, Guy criticizes her as being ungrateful.
