In this episode, Jesus gets his head anointed with expensive oil by an unnamed woman. His disciples complain about it, saying the money could have been spent on the poor. But Jesus said they'd always have poor people, but wouldn't always have him.

Jesus has a last supper with his disciples, where he told them to eat his body and drink his blood, and said that one of them would betray him, whom he identified as Judas.

Judas betrays Jesus with a kiss, a crowd arrests him and takes him to Caiaphas, who accuses him of blasphemy.

And the chapter ends with Peter denying that he knew Jesus three times before the cock crowed - just as Jesus had predicted.
