Newt and Percival help Credence as he learns to control his powers now that the Obscurus has been separated from him. He's taking to learning magic like a fish takes to water and he is also very much soaking up the love that Newt, Percival, and the creatures all constantly shower on him.

However, there are those who thing that Credence should have been put down like a rapid dog, that he's too dangerous to live and isn't even human. With this in mind, this person with ill-intent devises a plan to get rid of Credence. They arrange for Credence's lunch or coffee to be poisoned. Just as Credence is about to take a sip or bite, one of the creatures like Pickett or the Demiguise stops him in the nick of time.

Percival is nearly berserk in his rage, but Newt is far more scarier, because his is the cold, silent rage that promises full on Hell. Together Percival and Newt go hunting for whoever tried to hurt their Credence. The creatures also joint the hunt, because nobody tries to hurt one of their own and gets away with it.

Lord help the culprit when Percival and Newt, and the creatures all get their hands and paws on them.

Afterwards, Credence finds himself on the receiving end of everyone's protective instincts in full overdrive, not that he minds.
