Franske Charles Sobhraj terroriserte den velkjente hippiestien i Sør-Asia på 1970-tallet. Han ranet, stjal identiteter og tok livet av 31 personer, flesteparten backpackere og turister. Han tok til ekstreme midler for å oppnå status, og ble kalt for The Serpent - slangen - for sin evne til å lure seg unna myndighetene.
Sobhraj rømte fra fengsel flere ganger, den ene mer storslagen enn den andre. Susanne mener at Charles er en av de verste personene de har snakket om, og i denne episoden forsøker hun og Jonas å forstå hvordan Charles så kaldblodig kunne utnytte sine nærmeste for å få det akkurat som han ville.
