[low, ominous music playing]

[rattling, thudding]

[tense music playing]

[Wednesday] Dr. Kinbott tells me
I should get out more.

Says I need to open my mind
to new people and experiences.

Who am I to argue
with her professional clichés?

While I do the autopsy,

you find the files of the monster's
other victims and make copies.

-[Thing taps loudly]
-Don't pout.

Your scalpel skills are questionable.

Do you remember my 13th birthday,
when Uncle Fester gave me that cadaver?

You sliced right through
that man's carotid.

-[resigned tap]
-[sighs]

No.

No.

[inhales appreciatively]
Magnificent hematoma.

There you are.

Thursday, 7:23 p.m.
The body is that of a 50-year-old male.

[copier whirs]

Lacerations and defensive wounds
appear on both hands.

What remains of the chest
and torso indicates a frenzied attack.

Subject has been
almost entirely disemboweled.

[anxious tapping]

[vehicle approaching]

This is curious.

Subject's left foot is missing.

It appears to have been
chewed off at the ankle.

Have you seen a left foot anywhere?

[frantic tapping]

Calm down. Who's coming?

Appreciate you coming back
to the office, Doc.

No problem, Sheriff.

Whatever I can do to help.

Whatever or whoever
is responsible for these killings…

In all my years,
I've never seen injuries like them.

[clattering]

I thought you should see this

before I issued my report
on the latest victim.

It's a real noodle-scratcher.

The killer cut off two toes
from the victim's left foot.

Best guess, they used a surgical saw.

The final autopsy report's still pending.

Minute you're done,
send it straight to my desk.

Media blackout on the toes.

Sure thing, Sheriff.

Been a busy couple of weeks, huh?

At least I'm going out in style.
Friday's my last day.

Happy retirement, Doc.

Gonna surprise Mrs. Anwar
with a four-week cruise.

[chuckles wryly]

Excited to trade rib shears for Mai Tais.

See yourself out. I'll lock up.

[mysterious music playing]

[music swells, trails off]

I don't remember this one coming in.

Full rigor. You've been dead a while.

Guess you won't mind waiting
another day for me to cut you open.

[mysterious music continuing]

Five more minutes.

I was just getting comfortable.

[jauntily macabre music playing]

When I suggested giving
your side of the room a makeover,

I did not have
Ted Bundy's Pinterest in mind.

Still not as creepy
as your stuffed unicorn collection.

Is this why you snuck out last night?

Thing and I made
an unsanctioned trip to the morgue

to copy the files
of the monster's victims.

Okay, there are so many levels
of ew in that statement,

-I don't know where to begin.
-I need to get inside its head.

Discover any patterns or anomalies.
I've already made a big discovery.

Turns out all of the monster's victims
have had body parts surgically removed.

The first one a kidney,
the second a finger--

-[panting] Wednesday, I don't feel--
-Third a gall bladder.

And the bearded man
from the meeting house, two toes.

Do you understand what this means?
These murders aren't mindless.

He's collecting trophies like a seasoned
serial killer. It's impressive, actually.

[Thornhill] While most plants reward
their pollinators with sweet nectar,

many carnivorous varieties
turn to sexual trickery

or deception.

[song trails off]

[Xavier grunts]

I tweaked my back fencing.

[Thornhill] The orchid produces
a pheromone that mimics a female insect,

luring the males in.

Now, once the plant is pollinated,

what do the male insects get in exchange?

Nada. Just like
all the guys at the Rave'N.

[students laugh]

Okay, okay. I know you're all
excited about Saturday,

which is why I haven't
assigned any homework.

-[scattered cheers]
-Yes!

But I do still need volunteers
for the decorating committee.

Anyone interested,
come and see me up here.

[Xavier] You're not gonna volunteer?

Aren't you pumped about disco balls
and spiked punch?

There's even a DJ. MC Blood Suckaz.

I'd rather stick needles in my eyes.

[chuckles drily]

I'll probably do that anyway.

Or you could invite someone
and have a little fun.

[Xavier grunts]

[tense music playing]

[birds warbling]

We need to do this.

Xavier didn't get
those scratches from fencing.

He's hiding something.

[suspenseful music playing]

I suppose every artist needs a muse.

Xavier, you just became
that much more interesting.

Wednesday.

Xavier.

Hello.

-What are you doing?
-Nothing.

I just saw you come out this way.

What is this place?

It's kind of my private art studio.

I cleared it out, fixed it up,
so Weems let me use it.

How very entrepreneurial.
I would love to see inside.

Why don't you give me a tour?

Not right now. It's a total mess.

I shadowed a crime scene photographer
last summer.

I'm not easily fazed.

Maybe another time.
Why were you looking for me?

I wanted to go over Ms. Thornhill's
homework assignment.

She didn't give us homework.

Remember?

Why are you really out here?

Is this about a certain dance

that makes you want to poke needles
into your eyes, perhaps?

I'm all ears.

[Wednesday] Sometimes intentions melt
in the face of unexpected opportunity.

If this was my chance
to get up close and personal

with a potential serial killer,

how could I refuse?

-Are you really going to make me ask?
-Oh, absolutely.

[weary sigh]

[flatly] Would you…

Would--

Would you possibly consider going
to the Rave'N dance with a certain…

Would--

Would you go to the dance with me?

[chuckles]

Yes, Wednesday, I would love
to go to the dance with you.

I thought you'd never ask.

[gritting teeth] Neither did I.

[squeals] Oh my God! Wednesday Addams
is going to the Rave'N.

My whole world is tilted!

-You know what you need?
-A bullet to the head?

-A dress.
-I already have one.

Not the one you showed up here in!

That thing was a fashion emergency
not even lightning could resuscitate.

Thing, back me up here.

You need something that screams,

"First date. Stand back, bitches!
I have arrived!"

And I know just the place!

What kind of dystopian hellscape is this?

[dolorous music playing]

[Enid] Our first roomie shopping spree!

The dance committee's suggesting
all white to match the theme,

but that's not gonna fly with us.

I have more pressing business

than to worry about a dress
for a dance I don't want to attend.

But I thought we were bonding.

[students laughing]

I feel I'll only slow you down.

You're a gazelle. I'm a wounded fawn.

Cut me loose and go run with the pack.

Are you sure?

I'm going to see Galpin. I'm not stop--

[grandiose, elegant music playing]

[door chimes ring]

Hi, Wednesday.

That dress will certainly turn some heads.

Are you collecting more
exotic trinkets for your office?

Those are souvenirs from my travels.

That's how I step outside of
my comfort zone.

Speaking of which, are you going
to the Rave'N this weekend?

I'm not required to answer
your questions out in the wild, am I?

I look forward to talking about it
at our next session.

We both know
that there's a monster out there.

If we're going to stop it,

I think it's time we put
our differences aside and work together.

And this is your stake
for me to deal you in?

[Galpin sighs]

I'm sorry, you gotta do better than that.
You got some nice detail though.

-I didn't draw it.
-I need to know who did.

Unless we're exchanging intel,
I'm not at liberty to say.

Why would I share information
about an ongoing murder investigation

with a high school kid?

Because I go to Nevermore and you don't.

Don't you want eyes and ears
behind those ivy-covered walls?

Listen, Velma, why don't you
and the Scooby gang stick to your homework

and leave investigating
to the professionals.

[phone ringing]

-What?
-[woman] Mayor Walker's on line two.

-He's looking for an update.
-Hey, Addams.

Let me see that sketch again.

[suspenseful music playing]

The person who drew this,
that your suspect?

When you bring me some concrete evidence,
maybe we'll talk.

Yes, Mayor. Everything's going splendidly.

[indistinct chatter]

[student] My spiky little sea urchin.

-That's horrible.
-That's actually her singing.

[chatter subsides]

Is it okay if I talk to Enid?

[Enid] Don't worry. I can handle him.

Thanks.

-I'm--
-Lucas Walker, mayor's son.

Recently split from cheer captain,
Chrissy Smothers.

Cute brunette who needs
to rethink her spray tan.

That's kinda scary.

I have a nose for gossip
and I follow half your grade on TikTok.

Oh yeah, and my roommate
kicked your butt… twice.

-Wednesday Addams is your roommate?
-Sure is.

I know this isn't a random encounter.

So, why are you sitting here,
Lucas Walker?

You must want something.

I've got a friend
who works at Hawte Kewture.

She overheard you're on the hunt
for a date to the Rave'N.

Maybe we can help each other out.

Don't want to ask
what trouble you're in now.

Nothing I can't handle.

Your father's in particularly
frustrating form today. Avoid.

Yeah, welcome to my world.

You guys have the Rave'N
this weekend, right?

It was all the buzz
at the Weathervane today.

I must be the only one
not obsessed with this stupid dance.

So, you're not going?

Actually, I was forced to ask someone
as an act of self-preservation.

Sure, that happens, I guess.

So, who is it?

[restrained, poignant music playing]

Xavier.

Got it.

Hope you two have fun.

-I'm not sure why you're upset.
-That's kind of the problem.

I mean, call me crazy, Wednesday,
but you keep giving me these signals.

It's not my fault I can't interpret
your emotional Morse code.

Then let me spell it out.

I thought we liked each other,

but then you pull something like this,
and I have no idea where I stand.

Am I in the "more-than-friend zone"

or just a pawn
in some game you're playing?

I'm just dealing with a lot right now.

I need to prioritize.

Thanks for clearing that up.

I guess, give me a call
if I ever move up your to-do list.

[forcefully] Not one word.

[bees buzzing]

Enid wouldn't let me
keep this in our dorm.

No worries. Mi colmena es su colmena.

I assume this is the creature
that's been rampaging in the woods.

You've heard about it before?

Rumors. Mr. Fitts banned me
from bug-hunting until further notice.

Claimed a bear was on the loose,
which I knew was a lie.

Didn't match their hibernation schedules.

Speaking of monsters with sharp claws,
could you give this to your roomie?

Put in a good word for me?

I hear she's still sans date
for the Rave'N.

Eugene.

I know the chances of her asking me
are next to zero, but I don't care.

I'll keep putting myself out there
until Enid finally… sees me.

And if she never does?

She will.

I'm playing the long game.

My moms say people
will appreciate me when I'm older.

They're probably just trying
to make me feel better, but--

Listen, people like me and you,
we're different.

We're original thinkers, intrepid outliers
in this vast cesspool of adolescence.

We don't need these inane
rites of passage to validate who we are.

So you're not going to the Rave'N either?

Actually, I am.

With Xavier.

I see.

It's not like I like Xavier.

I just have ulterior motives.

Sketches are the closest thing I have
to a lead to try and stop this thing.

[Eugene] That circle…

I think I know where that is.

Show me.

[eerie music playing]

[Wednesday] It's definitely a match.

What were you doing out here?

Collecting specimens.

This place is ground zero
for horny gypsy moths.

You think it's in there?

Only one way to find out.

[eerie music continues]

I'm not a huge fan of enclosed spaces.

I'm claustrophobic.

If you hear me screaming bloody murder,

there's a good chance
I'm just enjoying myself.

[Eugene sighs]

[sighs]

[Wednesday] This is definitely its lair.

[Eugene] Are those human?

No, I think it's got a taste for venison.

Check this out.

[chilling music playing]

Yahtzee.

What is that?

Concrete proof.

All right, I won't be long.

I just need to find something
to match against the claw's DNA.

[tense coda plays]

[chilling music playing]

What are you doing?

How do you know
what the monster looks like?

Or are these all just self-portraits?

[scoffs] What, you think it's me?
I saved your life.

So did the monster. Or was that you
the night Rowan was killed?

-You so are out of line now.
-I'm trying to uncover the truth.

And your art seems
to have a recurring motif.

Yeah.

This creature's been haunting
my dreams for weeks.

I try to block it out, but I can't.
So I just… come in here and paint it.

When I was painting this one,
claws reached out and took a swipe at me.

That's how I got these.

I thought you were able
to control your ability.

-Not when it comes to this.
-Maybe it's your guilty conscience.

I told you I'm not the monster, okay?

You just happened to draw pictures of it,

down to the location of its lair
in the woods?

Those are some pretty vivid dreams.

You were in here.

Before, when I caught you outside.

That's the only reason
you asked me to the Rave'N?

[scoffs] To try and cover.

-You are unbelievable.
-It's nothing personal.

No, it never is with you, is it?

I mean, do you even care about anyone
or anything at all, Wednesday?

Get out!

Yeah, I know Inez
is usually three sheets to the wind,

but she keeps calling the mayor

and she's BS-ing that there's
lights on at the old Gates place.

So do a drive-by,
make sure there's no squatters.

That's the claw of the monster

and that's a dried blood sample
from a potential suspect.

He used it to dab scratches on his neck.

Run the DNA test and see if they match.

I'm sorry, do I work for you?

You asked for concrete evidence.
That's it.

Where'd you get this?

And who's the suspect?

Run the test first,
then I'll explain everything.

I'm not playing games, Addams.

Neither am I, Sheriff.

Bernice, bring me
a DNA authorization form, please.

Hmm.

[Wednesday] Why so glum?

Saw Enid at lunch.
Asked if she got my honey.

It's not like I didn't warn you.

Since neither you nor I
have a date to the dance--

-We should go together!
-What?

No, I was going to suggest we stake
out the cave and identify the monster.

Whoever it may be.

So… I hear you might be
free tomorrow night after all.

[Xavier chuckles]

[customer] Thank you.

[espresso machine whirring]

[bell dings]

[upbeat pop music playing]

[Thornhill] Okay, have fun with it!

You look gorgeous!

So gorgeous!

Welcome to this year's Rave'N!

Oh, beautiful! What a nice top!

Have a dance for me!

[upbeat pop music playing]

Welcome to the Rave'N.

Well, here's to a night
they'll never forget.

Careful what you wish for.

[Thornhill]
You were a Nevermore student once.

Don't you remember being full of hope
and excitement about the Rave'N?

All I remember is disappointment.

The boy I asked
turned me down for another girl.

Morticia Frump, in fact.

Wednesday's mother?

Oh, make sure nobody spikes the punch.

We can't afford a single misstep tonight.

[knocking at door]

I'm coming, Eugene!

Hey, did you grab
any extra batteries for the flash--

Tyler.

I got your invite.

Guessing you had Thing
drop it in the tip jar?

Good guess.

After our last conversation, I wasn't sure
I'd even get to speak to you again, but…

Well, your note was so genuine and…

sweet.

Totally took me by surprise.

Me too.

Well, now that I'm here,

I'm glad I came.

You need a few minutes?

Genuine and sweet?
How could you do this to me?

[frustrated sigh]

[Thing snaps twice]

[grandiose, elegant music playing]

How'd you pay for it?

Five-finger discount, of course.

Thing, don't look.

[darkly grandiose music playing]

Wow, you look…

Unrecognizable? Ridiculous?

A classic example of
female objectification for the male gaze?

Amazing.

I mean it, Wednesday. You look beautiful.

Eugene?

Wednesday, what's going on?

[pop music playing faintly]

What happened to staking out the cave?

Sure, I get it.
Guess I'll check out the woods myself.

Don't go alone.

It's too dangerous. Stand down.

We'll go together tomorrow night,
understood?

Staking out a cave?

A Hummer never shies away from danger.

You can't say that, it's offensive!

The correct name is Yeti.

Oh, sorry. Do any go here?

Not anymore.
They've been extinct since the 1950s.

Our science teacher Ms. Thornhill
chaired the dance committee this year.

She wanted the Rave'N to feel relevant.

So our theme is climate crisis
meets extinction event.

But in a fun way!

Okay, the theme
of our last dance was Hawaiian nights.

-Yeti-tini?
-Yeah--

[gasps]

Oh my God, I'm so sorry! Let me fix that!

Enid?

I thought that was you.

Is that your date?

Yes, and he's having
the best time with me.

We are both loving this dance…

together.

Sweet.

Does your mood have to do
with a certain pig-tailed goth girl?

She's not here.

We are.

You're right. I'm sorry.

I do really like being here with you, so…

-I appreciate the last-minute invitation.
-No more talking about Wednesday Addams.

Deal?

Yo, check it out.

Wednesday totally busted out of
her cocoon.

Enlighten me.

I'm so sorry about your pants.

Are those the playoffs?
Who's winning, the Penguins or the Ducks?

-You follow pro hockey?
-Lifelong Sharks fan.

I grew up with older brothers.

It was like, "Watch hockey

I just heard a rare

[pop music playing faintly in distance]

Was it the thin mountain air
or the Yeti-tinis that got to you?

Xavier told me what you did last year.

How you and your friends assaulted him
and destroyed his mural on Outreach Day.

I guess that was inevitable.

Look, I… I wish I could say
that it was an accident,

or that it wasn't half as bad
as it sounds, but I'd be lying.

And he could have made things
a lot worse for me, but he didn't.

Why'd you do it?

I mean, I could give you
a million excuses, but…

the truth is I'm still
trying to figure that out.

I got sent away to this boot camp

and realized that's not the version
of myself I want to be.

A bitter townie that blames everyone else
for the shitty hand he's been dealt.

Look, I did a terrible thing,
but I swear I'm not a terrible person.

Did you think I was going to judge you
over some lousy prank?

I would have taken it further.

Like putting piranhas in a swimming pool?

I may have done
a little digging on you after we met.

I'd do it again.

I knew there was a reason I liked you.

As my dear mother always says,

Speaking of suffering, where's your date?

I didn't see you and Xavier
on the dance floor.

We had a little tiff.

About you, actually.

You don't know what it's like.

Being beautiful and popular?

Never knowing people's true feelings.

If someone likes me for me.

What about your amulet?

It's not foolproof.

It's a mild prophylactic, so to speak.

That's why Xavier broke up with me.

He could never fully trust me.

The worst part is I could
never trust his feelings either.

I never knew if they were real or not.

You're lucky.

Do tell.

You don't care what people think of you.

Honestly, I wish I cared a little more.
