This is why I was asked to lead the rebellion. I learned much while on the earth… especially in matters sorcerous. I had the greatest teacher of all… Doctor Strange!

Synopsis for "Private Eyes"

Doctor Strange watches Jessica Drew through the Orb of Agamotto to check on her after having recently saved her life. She works with Shroud to nab a couple of criminals as Doctor Strange watches with satisfaction at her rapid recovery despite her recent ordeal. Afterwards, Doctor Strange is given a telegram by Sara Wolfe and is alarmed by its contents. He quickly goes to check on the Darkhold and is satisfied when he finds it safely secured.

Meanwhile, in the Dark Dimension, a man named Rahl casts a spell to ensnare Asti the All-Seeing as it passes by. He tells Asti that once his bonds fade, to inform Umar that the rebellion cannot be stopped. Rahl opens a portal, quickly moves past a herd of menacing Mindless Ones and encounters a crimson dome which he enters and speaks to Clea about the success of their plan.

In an office in Boston, Massachusetts, Hannibal King enjoys the afternoon sun through his window until the sudden and surreptitious appearance of Doctor Strange. They reminisce about Doctor Strange having saved him from the life of a vampire and subsequent destruction of the earthly vampire race before moving on to the current case that’s vexing him. He speaks of the discovery of two men by the Boston P.D. in a deconsecrated church whose minds were completely blank and subsequent discovery of a an alarmingly large hole by his partner Blade and Frank Drake, as well as discoveries of baffling museum thefts and animal mutilations. Strange leaves the office to speak to the mindless victims who are at a nearby hospital. At the hospital, he scans their minds with the Eye of Agamotto and discovers their minds to be complete devoid of all thought and memory before he is gassed by a hidden man who absconds with the two mindless men.

At the deconsecrated church where the men were first found, the Darkholers are attempting to perform a ritual using the men which will bring forth vampires from other dimensions into theirs. Doctor Strange and Hannibal King suddenly arrive hoping to stop the ritual from continuing but are surprised at the Darkholders' resistance to magical and conventional attacks. The leader suggests that it is too late to stop them as only the blood sacrifice remains but the two mindless figures are suddenly revealed to actually be Blade and Frank Drake and their sacrifice would be meaningless for the ritual. The leader instead sacrifices himself and a vampiric creature emerges through a portal but quickly disintegrates.

Later, at a Boston night spot, Blade is musing about what happened and why the vampire fell apart and Doctor Strange reveals that the ritual was futile because his previous spell had removed the curse which allowed vampires to exist in their dimension and could only be counteracted if the curse was restored.
