-[banging on door]
-[low ominous music playing]
[breathes shakily]
[banging on door continues]
-[Briar] Hello?
-[witch 1] Is somebody there?
-[witch 2] Please!
-[banging on door continues]
[witch 3] Please, help us!
Help, please!
Back up!
-[music swells dramatically]
-[wind whooshing]
Jake? Jake.
-[gasps]
-[music turns hopeful]
-[man] That pub's pretty far.
-[indistinct chatter]
[low suspenseful music playing]
Trust me, your first human catch
is always the best one.
-Thanks, man.
-Yeah, you bet.
Have a good night.
-Now's your chance.
-[music swells ominously]
-[music intensifies]
-[hissing, crunching]
-[grunts, pants]
-[music softens]
-I… I… I can't do it.
-[scoffs] What?
You still think
you're too good for this?
Wait till you're really hungry.
Won't matter who's standing
next to you, you'll feed.
Mark my words.
-[wind whooshing]
-[music intensifies]
-[grunts, screams]
-[Alexander hisses]
-[man screams]
-[Alexander snarls, hisses]
[breathes heavily]
[music builds]
[music fades]
[indistinct chatter]
By now, I'm sure
the good news has spread.
-And it's true.
-[light hopeful music playing]
Last night,
your missing classmates
-were found.
-Go Jake!
[students cheering, applauding]
And Briar. Go Briar, whoo!
Sorry, my voice doesn't carry.
The girls are back
with their families,
resting and recovering.
And I can tell you,
they were kidnapped
by a witch-vampire hybrid.
[students murmuring]
But last night,
the hybrid was destroyed.
-It'll never hurt anyone…
-It's not adding up.
The killer is still out there.
Try to put that
out of your mind.
Today's a good day.
[Ms. Graves] With these events
behind us,
let's get back
to the reason why you're here,
to learn the craft of magic.
Lockdown is officially lifted.
You may come and go
as you please.
[students cheering, applauding]
Hex Fest
is gonna go crazy tonight, bro.
Party of the year.
I'm calling it now.
The threat is over.
[students cheering]
-[school bell ringing]
-[indistinct chatter]
Whoever killed Tamora
is still out there, Emma.
The threat is over?
I think it's just beginning.
No use scaring
the students, Agnes.
Hey, I gotta run,
but I just wanted to say,
-uh, good job.
-[music fades]
-[Peter] Seriously.
-Thanks.
[Peter] Okay.
[indistinct chatter]
I need backup.
-Wait, what am I agreeing to?
-I love surprises.
Well, girls,
I think we've had enough
acting up for 24 hours.
Sneaking out,
getting your powers back.
Am I missing anything?
-Let's get to class.
-This'll be quick.
Hi. Whoever killed Tamora,
killed my mom.
-Oh, we're still on this.
-[Briar] We never left this.
Ms. Graves,
how are you not seeing
-what I'm seeing?
-[intriguing music playing]
Tamora is dead. My mom is dead.
I saw her police report.
They had the exact same marks
on their necks.
That doesn't sound
like a coincidence.
Yeah, I don't even believe
in coincidences.
Now this is what I like to see.
The three of you
are finally starting to click.
Please stop changing
the subject.
And obviously we're clicking.
We're a coven.
Actually, technically,
you're not a coven yet.
Right now, you're kind of
in a trial period.
Let me take this one.
We aren't officially a coven
until Ms. Graves
names us a coven,
at the junior year
winter solstice formal,
when the school's
official covens are announced
during the covening ceremony.
-I memorized that on day one.
-[Ms. Graves] Good, Tegan.
Briar, you'd be suspended
for breaking lockdown last night
if you hadn't actually saved
those girls.
Focus on your studies,
and let's all move on.
-[school bell ringing]
-Second bell.
I've got time bending
in the East Hall.
I've got mind reading
in the Oculus Wing.
I've got to check my schedule.
[music rises]
This isn't a coincidence.
[energetic rock music playing,
Violet Grohl "THUM"]
Dry for the weekend
I need you in my life… ♪
Hello! Please, come on in.
Why aren't you in class?
-Why weren't you in class?
-[Briar] Jake.
[sighs] Cole's not happy
that I found the girls
before he did.
He told me
to sit out school today
to reflect on my misbehaviors.
Also, are…
are girls allowed to be
in the boy's wing, or…
Something is off.
Graves barely reacted
when I told her that the murders
could be connected.
-Like wax doll level blankness.
-Really?
If we find out
who killed Tamora,
we find out who killed my mom.
I want that.
Graves should want that.
And why doesn't Graves
want that?
That's what's not adding up.
I might have a way to help.
[breathes deeply]
I mean, we have
a couple hours until Hex Fest.
Till what?
[Jake] It's the biggest party
of the year,
before autumn exams.
It's basically our version of…
of a Halloween blowout,
but you kind of have
to keep it on the DL,
the teachers don't know.
I could definitely use
a distraction.
[sighs]
Then we better get started.
Hey, uh, question.
Do you get motion sick?
-[low ominous music playing]
-[magical warping]
-Oh! Wait, that was really fun.
-[exhales heavily]
-[pants] No, totally.
-[sighs]
It's a real bonus
to teleporting.
[groans, sighs]
It's pretty freaky
being back here.
It's all cleaned up.
There's no more evidence.
Who needs evidence of the crime
when you can recreate it?
Meaning what exactly?
You wanted a killer?
Watch.
-[dramatic electronic music playing]
-[Jake] Through dust and time…
[voice echoes eerily]
…let sight confide.
Unmask the face
that they try to hide.
-[grunts]
-[magical dust tinkling]
-[music turns tense]
-[magical smoke whooshing]
[Briar] That's Tamora.
-I can't see their face.
-Any second now.
[music intensifies]
[Jake hesitates] That's not
supposed to happen.
-Try it again?
-No, it won't work. I…
The killer's…
The killer's identity,
it's being obstructed
somehow, it…
This could…
This could only be done
with some serious magic.
[magical energy whooshing]
[music rises]
We gotta get out of here.
[upbeat pop song playing]
Waking up
Feeling good vibes ♪
Know it's gonna be
A good, good day ♪
Got my girls all by my side
Everyone is looking at us ♪
Our way!
The sun is shining… ♪
Okay, two hours of studying,
and then we can, like,
dip into Hex Fest,
and make a tasteful appearance.
Obsessed with the idea
of being tasteful.
[sighs] We need to focus
on next week's
Autumn Coven exam.
These are all the subjects
I think Graves
might want us to cover.
Great.
That's funny, you said "great,"
but your face didn't.
That's like
an amazing ability of yours.
Tegan, your optimism is noble.
Briar, your energy is chaotic.
-What is going on?
-Okay, don't be mad at me,
but… Jake and I snuck back
to the crime scene.
-[tense music overlapping]
-You were out with Jake?
[Briar] Just hear me out.
He said the killer
was being protected by magic.
[Tegan] Oh, that's so cool.
-Wait, no. No, that's scary.
-[Briar] But what does it mean?
If my mom is dead,
and a hybrid is dead,
and the three girls were found
in a hybrid's basement,
is it all connected in some way?
-[sighs] I'm so bad at riddles.
-Yeah, so am I.
Dead end.
[scoffs] There's no such thing
as a dead end.
Look, I love a challenge.
What can I say?
Classic Capricorn.
She's very competitive.
Name the last dead end you hit.
This Tamora lady…
I need more intel.
I know who to ask.
Please tell me
it's the British boy.
[Briar] He has
to know something.
But there's been no sign of him
since he sent that last text.
I mean, is he dead
in a ditch somewhere?
Like, where is he?
When I was little,
I had to stay up
reading past bedtime.
Even if I got in trouble,
I always had to know
how the story ended.
Wait, is this, like, a metaphor?
I need to know
how this mystery ends.
If all of this is connected,
I need to know how.
[chuckles softly]
Briar, let's go.
Thank you.
[music fades]
No idea if this will work,
but this is the only
I have from our date.
He got you a rose?
-Oh, my God. That is so cute.
-[chuckles]
It'll work.
[sighs] Release a petal.
[breathes deeply]
-Focus on Ollie. Only on Ollie.
-[breathes deeply]
[intriguing instrumental music playing]
Now, we chant.
I'm sorry, sometimes
being a witch is hilarious.
We're chanting. Okay. [chuckles]
[breathes deeply]
[all chant] Map it, mark it,
draw it clear.
Show the path
that leads from here.
[scoffs]
[soft magical whooshing]
[Briar scoffs softly]
[music swells dramatically]
1395 St. Charles Avenue.
"Address no longer in use."
I don't love that.
We'll go with you.
And put you guys
in more danger? No.
Even I have my limits.
Not many, but yeah.
Well, we won't be in danger
if we're together.
What she said.
[crickets chirping]
[music fades]
Thought I'd find you here.
-Hey.
-Hey.
I needed some air.
-Who doesn't after that ordeal?
-Hmm.
What was Agnes talking about?
-[solemn music playing]
-"The threat has just begun."
[Ms. Graves] You know Agnes.
Always on high alert,
ready for the world to end.
Something you're not
telling me, Emma?
'Cause I… I can keep a secret.
In fact, I'm really good at it.
I have no doubt.
But no, really, Peter, it's…
There's nothing more
to the story.
We can relax. [sighs]
Well, you should be aware
I'm getting a sense
that something's not quite right
around here.
What do you mean?
I don't know, lately,
I… I've been feeling like
I'm being watched.
Or followed.
-Have you seen anyone? Anything?
-No.
I just thought
if this has anything
to do with the threat
Agnes is talking about,
then you should know about it.
I'm glad you told me.
-Keep a lookout.
-I will.
Call me if you need anything.
[tense music playing]
[music builds]
[dramatic rock music playing]
Well, this looks welcoming.
[sighs]
Hey, do you still have
that warning crystal?
I… I know it's not the time,
but that was actually a loan.
I haven't seen
that crystal since…
-the ghost tour.
-[sighs]
[Briar] Uh, it must have fallen
out of my pocket.
-I'll make it up to you.
-Okay.
[suspenseful music playing]
[breathes deeply]
Careful, Briar.
-[indistinct chatter]
-[doorman] Yes?
We're here to see
someone named Ollie.
-Okay, rude.
-Maybe it's for the best.
[lock clanging loudly]
[door creaks open]
-[moody rock music playing]
-[indistinct chatter]
Um, guys?
-[vampires hiss, snarl]
-[Sasha] Oh, my God.
[gasps softly]
[whispers] Oh, my God.
Briar.
