Issue Summary
Cerebus wakes up in a hotel room in Port Seprania, but he's not alone. Sharing his bed is his new wife, Red Sophia. Before long Weisshaupt pokes his head through the door. Weisshaupt unabashedly admits to drugging Cerebus, and Sophia confirms that the marriage has been "legitimized," at least twelve times. Weisshaupt informs Cerebus that under local law, abandoning the marriage would result in his hanging. Cerebus has no choice but to become Weisshaupt's puppet Prime Minister. On top of all that he meets his mother-in-law for the first time.
