AVERY:
Hey, Jesse and Birdie,

wannabe Harriet Potters.

You two fake witches
want to explain

why you dragged me out here?

We're doing a ritual
to make a doll come to life,

so you stop calling us
fake witches and apologize.

Yeah, this is even better
than Birdie

talking about the "fire souls"

and her "haunted shipwreck"
on Moonstone Island.

I can't wait for everyone

to see you make
complete fools of yourselves.

Or for us to prove on video

that the supernatural exists.

Right. (snickers)

Found it.
(clears throat)

(speaking arcane language)

(laughing)

-(thunder booming)
-(birds shrieking)

(continues speaking
arcane language)

Hey.

Hey, are you okay?

Yeah.

JESSE:
Avery?

Hey, jerk. You okay?

(bones cracking)

-(growls)
-(gasping)

(demonic voice):
Your souls are mine!

(screaming)

(roaring)

NANCY:
Nancy Drew Investigations.

Nancy! We need help!

♪ ♪

NANCY:
Last step--

If Temperance's curse
has been lifted,

then the wax
should form a hexagram.

I got nothing-gram.

Trial 36, fail.

Heard anything from Bess yet?

No, nothing yet.

I know it seems impossible,

but has the impossible
ever stopped us?

It's a good point.

I still remember seeing you

in high school,

working on that
lycopodium powder, the volcano.

I was a senior,
you were a sophomore.

And you refused to quit

until that thing erupted
in actual flames.

I didn't realize I was on
your radar in high school.

You stood out.

Are you still scared?

Yeah.

Having you here helps.
You scared?

I should be. I'm cursed.

But of all the times
we have faced death,

I have never...

been more excited

to keep living.

(computer beeps)

Okay, my algorithm
found something.

You ever heard
of a Plagonnia doll?

No, but I've seen a doll
just like that one

in Darlene Fowler's house.

Mm.

Fun way to start the day.

(sighs) The upside

of being an empty-nester.

-No one to walk in on us.
-Oh.

(chuckles)

-Mm.
-(machine beeping)

Coffee's ready.
Just in time.

(chuckles)

Don't use those.

These are the only cups
that are in there,

and in fact, this one's
actually chipped a little bit.

-Just... needs some glue.
-Yeah, no. No, no, no.

No, it doesn't need
to be fixed.

These cups are antiques
from Kate's tea set.

Oh, uh...

I'm sorry.

I-I didn't know.

No need to apologize.

You never really talk
about Kate.

(sighs) Well, we just did.

We good?

Yeah. Yeah.

I think I'm gonna head out.

I'll grab a coffee
on the way to the office.

-Yeah?
-Yeah.

-Okay.
-Okay.

Nice of Darlene
to text us from the beach.

Here is her spare key.

According to Darlene,
the demon housed inside the doll

is strong enough to act
as a supernatural battery pack,

able to power a ritual
with extra force.

Unfortunately, she does not know
which ritual that would be.

Well, we defeated
a kitchen demon before.

I mean, I think
we can figure this out.

Oh! One more thing.

The box acts
as a stabilizing force.

Uh, it protects
the doll's demonic energy

from seeping out,
so we need to keep the doll

inside the box until
we're ready to use it.

Did Darlene say anything
about what happens

to the demon if...

when we are successful?

Demon stays inside the doll,

unless we intentionally
raise it out, which...

we won't.

Rock and roll.

Hi, welcome to
the Historical Society.

My name is Bess Marvin.
I'll be your tour guide today.

First, um, I would like to
start off with a short video

about the historical importance
of the lighthouse.

NARRATOR:
Maine's lighthouses
have been a beacon

to weary sea travelers
for centuries...

What's with the school group?

My funding
is on the chopping block,

so I decided to start
giving tours.

But, see that dad over there?
Aaron?

He just took over the PTA,
he's a history buff

and a huge town booster.

He's already emailed me
about donating.

Anyway. Um...

So, I got a ping from
the Athens G.O.S.H. chapter.

My contact knows
of a complicated ritual

that the Ancient Greeks
once practiced

to break a love curse.

How did they get the magical
battery power to do it?

The Plagonnia doll.

We've got the doll,
so how complicated could it be?

Well, it's a multi-step process.

First, you have to inoculate
the member of the couple

who is cursed to die, so that
they can survive the ritual.

You'd have to, you know,
get a Nancy antigen.

A Nantigen. (laughing)

Yeah, don't mind me,
just spitting gold over here.

Once he's inoculated,
then what?

Then, you drink a herbal elixir

made of plants and herbs
that are extinct.

Could there be
modern substitutes?

I'll look into it.

After drinking the elixir,

then you'd have
to trigger the curse

by acting on your feelings.

Well, she's right.

I mean, that made
the curse manifest before.

Think about my barometer.

-Strong feelings.
-Mm-hmm.

So, while you're looking
into herbal substitutions,

how do we find an inoculation?

(clicks tongue)

Inoculation supplies, I have.

I remember reading it
in Hannah's ledger.

An ancient inoculation kit

used for mystical rituals
of protection.

Nancy will make
a paste with these

and paint a sigil on you.

Use this paintbrush
to avoid touching.

Okay, there is only enough
to make one Nantigen.

It has to be done at dusk,
and its protection power

only lasts 24 hours.

Okay?

-Okay.
-Okay, well, we'll trade

one ancient inoculation kit
for one ancient demon doll.

I'm gonna take that, too.

Are you leaving me here
with the demon doll?

It's the archive room.
Safer than lugging it around.

NANCY:
Darlene said it's safe
as long as it's inside the box.

Hide it in here
while we make the Nantigen.

(chuckles)

Rolls off the tongue,
doesn't it?

-Hey, Bess?
-Yeah?

Um... can I talk to you
about Moonstone Island?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course.
What do you want to talk about?

Everything.

When I mention
the fire souls to my grandma,

she shuts me down.

And my class thinks that
I invented the whole thing.

The only one who believes me
is Jesse.

I am so sorry
you're going through that.

-How can I help?
-You saw the fire souls.

Can you tell everyone
they're real?

(door opens)

Mm, what are you doing here

with your beach curls
and blazer?

We haven't hung out much lately,

and you said you needed
a chaperone.

Be real.

You're here because
you've hit peak anxiety

waiting to hear about clerkships

now that you stopped working
for Judge Abbott.

Okay, I wouldn't say "peak,"
but when do you think

is a good time to follow up?

-Hey.
-Aw!

You two are in the
holding-hands-in-public stage?

That is so cute!

(chuckles)
She is not cute.

She's a psycho.
She was begging

the tour guide
to talk about ghosts.

Stop trying to make
the supernatural happen.

-(laughing): Freak.
-I'm sorry.

What did you say
about my sister's girlfriend?

-You want to repeat that?
-Do we have a problem here?

They're talking about
the supernatural again, Dad.

It's making me uncomfortable.

You can just ignore it,
they're doing it for attention.

No, we're not.
The supernatural exists.

We do the blood bucket ritual
at the Seawater Festival.

Kids make dreamcatchers
with sand from Piper Beach

at the town carnival
to ward off spirits.

And Santa Claus is real,

and the tooth fairy
married the bogeyman.

Those are silly gimmicks
to drum up tourism.

Ms. Marvin knows I'm right.

Um... those rituals

are rooted in...

...superstition.

And town tradition.

And that's it.

Way to defend us.

Wait, Jesse...

Hey.

Look, Avery sucks.

You're, like, a million times
stronger than him.

Thanks.

(chuckles)

So, what are they
doing here anyway?

Well, this is where
they keep the good stuff.

(chuckles)

-Ooh...
-(laughing)

Boo.

If Avery could actually
witness the supernatural,

maybe he'd stop
being such a bully,

and see that we're not just
doing it for attention.

Let's show him it's real, then.

I've seen George
do rituals before.

Maybe there's an easy recipe
in here.

-Whoa.
-Weird.

Um, this section is about
raising an object

off the ground.

You recite this chant
while being surrounded

by ambers and arbor.

We can make a fire
in the woods

and use this doll as a test.

Okay.

Let's prove we're right
once and for all.

Easy, just tell 'em the water's
supernaturally contaminated.

With this group?

No, it needs more finesse
than that.

Okay, fine, tell them
you need to test the water

because of the tsunami.

We don't want people to panic.

We don't even know
if the sludge in Abbott's water

will show up in water tests,
and so far, town council,

not very interested in
what the town has to say.

Okay, anyone else with concerns

about the elementary school
repairs?

Uh, I have a broader concern.

It affects the schools,
but, but also...

all of us.

Uh, studies have shown that
in the aftermath of tsunamis,

local water supply
can be compromised for months,

-sometimes even years.
-He's right!

And we all know
that was not a normal tsunami.

The whole thing's unnatural.

You know why?

There's people amongst us
who made that tsunami happen.

Purposefully!

People practicing the occult.

Yeah, and then they're stealing
bodies from the graves.

Uh, let's just stay
on topic here.

Oh, no, no, no. No, they
need them for their rituals.

They're gonna kill us all.

-(audience clamoring)
-Look, look, look, look, look.

Look, I'm just as worried
as you are.

But... conspiracy theories
won't help us.

It's logical to look for someone

or something to blame.

But... (sighs) In our attempt
to find answers,

let's not do more damage.

Let's-let's work together
to find solutions

and take action--
real action--

to keep us all safe.

(people murmuring agreement)

This guy's good.

I think he should be up there
representing us.

He's the real deal.

Hear, hear!

-Great idea, Fred.
-FRED: Yeah.

Nick, if you're so inclined,
we'd love to have you sit in

on one of our
private council meetings

as a representative of
Horseshoe Bay small businesses.

-Oh, no, I don't...
-He's in!

-(Nick clears throat)
-He'd be happy to do it.

BRIE:
Excellent.

You still nervous?

I am. Are you?

Yeah.

We need a vibe change.

Where's the first place
you want to go

when we break the curse?

My parents honeymooned in Paris.

There's this beautiful sketch
of them watching the sunset

on the Pont des Artes Bridge.

I always wanted
to recreate that with someone.

What about you?

I would watch
the sunrise with you...

...from a hot air balloon
over Cappadocia.

I always thought that sounded
like a fun adventure.

(phone buzzing)

-Nancy Drew Investigations.
-BIRDIE: Nancy!

-We need help.
-NANCY: Whoa.

Slow down.

I didn't even get to finish
reading the incantation

before things got crazy.

Maybe that's why Avery got
messed up and ran off.

Babe, he was messed up
long before we did anything.

Jesse, you could have
killed yourselves.

And now, Avery's possessed
by a demonic doll spirit.

He's a jerk anyway.

We have to find Avery
before he hurts someone.

BESS: 'Kay, it sounds
like we're dealing

with a Thenellis demon,

an extremely powerful entity

that can only be contained
inside inanimate objects,

like our Plagonnia doll.

If this demon is released,

it will possess
its nearest human host--

in this case, Avery.

But it's only a matter of time
before the demon

kills its host or hosts.

Uh, the Thenellis has been known

to jump to multiple hosts

at one time.

Oh, no, you would know
if the girls were possessed.

This, uh, demon isn't subtle
in its manifestations.

Okay, so we need to exorcise
the demon out of Avery,

put it back into the doll in
order to break our love curse.

I did read about this potion

that can attract
the demonically possessed.

I can just figure out how
to make it and then lure Avery

to the Historical Society
for an exorcism.

You do still have
the doll, right?

Yeah, I can bring it
to the Historical Society.

I'm really sorry.

It's okay.
We're gonna fix it.

We just don't have
a lot of time.

-Can I ask you something?
-Yeah.

You obviously know
the supernatural exists.

Why did you lie earlier?

-Um...
-(alarm sounding)

Okay, go, go.

Go do the Nantigen ritual now.

I just feel kinda weird leaving

when there's a demonically
possessed kid

on his way over here.

No, no, no, we're in
the hour of Hesperis.

-It won't work after Dysis.
-Come again?

Hesperis-- ancient Greek term
for start of the evening.

Dysis-- ancient Greek term
for sunset.

Translation-- go get
your seven minutes in heaven on,

-you crazy kids.
-Thank you.

When did you first know
you had feelings for me?

Was it that day
in the warehouse?

Before DetectiveCon?

Earlier.

Uh, after we defeated
the Wraith.

You had been there for me
so many times,

but that one was...

(chuckles)
You know, I went to your house

that day.

I had this whole
awkward speech prepared.

But when I got there,
you'd already...

you'd left to go on
that road trip with Amanda.

God, I was jealous of Amanda.

I was jealous of Gil.

And Park.

How about you?
When did you know?

Was it after you drank
Karen's fake poison for me?

Earlier.

The day you made
the volcano erupt.

-That long?
-That long.

Take your shirt off.

I have to paint
the sigil on you.

Okay.

(sizzling)

I think that means
it's working.

Is it hurting you?

I can manage.

It's like a Nancy scar.

BESS:
Ace, Nancy, come quick!

(growling)

Look at his eyes.

They're red
like when he attacked us.

(laughs)

-I'll protect the doll!
-I'll start the exorcism.

Hurry!

-Nick?
-I can't see anything!

-I can't read!
-(coughing)

ACE:
Where'd Avery go?

Is everyone okay?

(gasping)

Where are Jesse and Birdie?

-Birdie?
-Jesse?

Okay, if the Thenellis
has jumped

to Birdie and Jesse,
we only have minutes.

All accounts of the Thenellis
entering multiple hosts

do not have favorable outcomes.

So, you're telling me
we have minutes

to find and exorcise my sister
before we lose her forever?

-George, we'll find her.
-This was all my fault.

I was with them at
the Historical Society.

No, this is all my fault.

I was with them, too.
I should have been honest

with Birdie about
the supernatural.

I could have--
I could have taught her,

warned her about the dangers.

Bess, we're the ones

who brought a demon doll
to the school field trip.

Hey, nobody loves blaming
themself more than I do,

but we have minutes.

There.

-Jesse!
-George, no!

-Wait!
-No, we're gonna lose them.

We have to start
the exorcism now.

We besiege this dark energy
to be rendered inert.

Banish all diabolic power
and machination.

Keep going,
keep going, it's working.

Uh, Nancy, the doll.

What about the doll?
What's happening to it?

The doll can't handle the demon
being forced back inside it.

It's going to explode
if we carry on.

You're not gonna be able
to use it.

There's no decision to be made.

There is not.

Halt to all evil influence,
malefice, or evil eye,

and all evil actions
aimed against Birdie, Avery,

and Jesse, and send it back
into the Plagonnia.

Run.

(thud)

BESS:
Oh, my God!

Oh, my God, Jesse.

Hey. You okay?

Come here, come here.

The demon, where is it?

The exorcism vanquished it.
It's gone.

So is the doll that
was gonna break our curse.

So, you two have
destroyed doll ashes,

no battery, and eight-ish hours

until Ace's Nantigen protection
expires.

And there aren't enough supplies
to make another Nantigen.

Plagonnia doll survived
natural disasters for centuries,

but it couldn't make it through
one five-minute exorcism?

Everything dies eventually.

Plagonnia. Plagonnia.

-Yeah, you said that.
-It's plural.

Do you speak Greek, or...?

NANCY: I read a fundamentals
book in middle school.

"Plagonnia" is plural
for "Plagonnos."

So, that means
there must be others?

The demon doll
was a Plagonnos doll,

one in a set of two.

Its twin doll would have
been made at the same time

as the demonic Plagonnos

to store the light energy
left over from its creation.

The ancient Greeks
had no idea

what to do
with the light energy.

They thought it was just
a waste.

But what if...

what if love and positive energy

are just as powerful
as dark energy?

Typical-- no one cares
about the good energy doll

because it can't be used
for chaos and destruction.

So now we just got
to figure out

where the good
Plagonnia doll is.

And then use it to break
Temperance's love curse.

I'm on it.
Scanning the dark web

and Shodan for other
light energy dolls.

Several in the U.S.

Nearest one's Madbury,
New Hampshire.

It's at an antique store called
Wolovnick's Curiosities.

That's a couple hours' drive.

And I have also been working
on the extinct plants and herbs

for the second part
of the ritual.

Due to cross-pollination,
the descendants

are alive and thriving.

These plants evolved
into species

-I can find fairly easily.
-Send me a shopping list.

I'll see if I can
track 'em down as well.

You two go find that doll and
we'll hold down the fort here.

And we'll have everything ready
by the time you get back.

(door opens, entry bell jingles)

Oh, hi, Dad!
Bye, Dad.

I thought you were
working today.

I can't talk, I'm late
for a-- a thing.

Just really--
just really important.

(door opens, entry bell jingles)

-(both laugh)
-(door closes)

I want to apologize to you.

I'm really sorry.

I totally overreacted
to that teacup.

I appreciate the apology.

Okay, good.

But are you sure
that you're ready for this?

-For us?
-Of course.

You're going through a process--
a grieving process.

I don't know that
that's true.

Were you not upset that
the teacup I used was Kate's?

-Yes, but...
-And it's been about a year

since Kate's death.

-Almost.
-Is it not possible

that you are dealing
with unprocessed grief?

-I...
-WAITRESS: Here you go.

-Thank you.
-Thanks.

Look, I don't think this is
the most appropriate place

to be having this conversation,

and I don't like being
questioned like I'm on trial.

All I'm saying is that
you're going to have to process

this grief now...
or later.

(phone buzzing)

-Sorry.
-Mm-hmm.

I'm getting 911 texts
from the office.

Some guy is accusing
the Historical Society

of child endangerment.

I have to go.

-We'll talk later.
-Yeah.

-Yeah. Bye.
-Okay.

(door opens, entry bell jingles)

(sighs)

Okay, I think we have everything
but the Franklin tea flowers,

which Lily is working on finding
in her extensive garden.

How's Jesse doing?

She's fine, physically.

She still doesn't seem to get
how dangerous what she did was.

I need her to understand

that using the supernatural
is serious.

You can't just use a ritual
to get back at a bully.

I'm really worried
she might do it again.

Could you talk to her?

-She listens to you.
-Of course.

Thanks.

Speaking of Jesse,
she actually told me

that you're blowing up
on social media again.

In our attempt to find answers,
let's not do more damage.

Huh, kind of rude of them

to not even ask me
if they could put it up.

Hey, you're a local celebrity.

Really, you're inspiring people.

That's why Brie asked you to sit
on their private meetings.

I forgot!

Oh, that council meeting
starts in ten minutes.

-(phone buzzing)
-Oh, I-- I don't want
to leave you

-with all the work.
-You're good.

Oh! Lily has the Franklin
tea flowers on hand.

Great.
I'll pick up the flowers

from Lily's shop
on the way back.

-Cool.
-Right? Cool.

Yeah.

Ace, is the coast
still clear back there?

Keep watching.
This lock's really making me

work for it.

Ace?
Ace, where are you?

ACE:
Let's get out of here.

What? No.
No, I'm not gonna give up.

You don't have to.

Back door was unlocked,
wide open.

I don't know, maybe this
love energy doll is helping us.

Or the owner forgot
to lock the door.

But either way,
I think the universe

wants this to happen,
wouldn't you say?

Mm-hmm. Who are we
to deny the universe?

Let's go break a curse.

I'm sorry, you want to do what?

Shut down the water supply
for a day

so it can be sampled and tested.

There could be residual
contamination from the tsunami.

Do you have proof
of contamination,

or you just going off of vibes?

No hard proof.

But here are studies
about the effects

of catastrophic events
on water supplies.

There could be contamination
from livestock waste,

chemicals, sewage.

And where are we supposed to get
our water in the meantime?

I already talked to a friend

in the mayor's office
in Ellsworth.

They're open to sharing
their water

while ours gets tested.

Hmm.
You move fast.

Send us your contact's info.
We'll get into it.

I appreciate
your action on this.

We care about the health
and safety of this town

as much as you do.

(door opens)

(door closes)

Franklin tea flowers from Lily.

She said they're usually
super rare.

Luckily, she had one plant.

The meeting went great, too.

Council's on board
with the Ellsworth plan.

Oh, success.
I told you they'd listen.

Everything's coming up
Nickerson.

Success here, too.

Guess who's breaking
a death curse today.

What-What's happening?

Hey, listen.
Nancy. You okay?

Those aren't flowers,
those are Temperance's moths.

I don't understand.

I got these flowers
directly from Lily.

Temperance must have
poisoned them before she died.

-How did she know?
-She predicted every way

that we were gonna try
and break the curse.

-(coughing)
-Would you get her some water?

-Yeah.
-Okay.

Temperance found a way
to sabotage the ritual.

Nancy, Nancy.

Hey...
Would you-- somebody call 911!

Nancy?

(monitor beeping steadily)

Oh, my God.

Oh, thank God.
You scared me.

Where's Ace?
Is he okay?

He's fine.
You are not.

It was touch and go
for a while there, Nancy.

They couldn't get
your heart rate to stabilize.

What were you doing?

We were trying
to break the curse.

You and Ace tried to break
Temperance's death curse?

The curse that you said
would kill him?

Yeah, but it didn't.

And I'm fine.

Temperance may have found a way
to poison my part of--

of the ritual,
but when we try again, it's...

Try again?
You can't be serious.

Well, I'm not gonna give up.

Ace is my person.
I-- you don't understand.

What, oh, I don't understand
what? love?

I don't understand wanting
to be with someone so badly

that I would do
whatever it took?

I watched my wife die.

I understand everything.

Sometimes...

no matter how much
you want something...

...it's not meant to be.

And you have to give up
and accept that

and move on.

I'm so sorry, Nancy.

I lost your mom.
I can't lose you, too.

(sighs)
Okay.

Ryan is outside
in the waiting room.

I'm gonna let him know
you're awake.

(sighs)

Two days is the right time
for a clerkship follow-up email.

Hmm. Glad I waited.

Look, I don't want to fight.

I just hope you know how serious
the supernatural is.

I do.
Next time I'll call you

before releasing an ancient
demon into the world.

And next time I'll stay
and I'll help you fix things.

I'm gonna make more mistakes,
and you can't always fix me.

Like Nick said,
you need to draw boundaries.

Nick?

Nick said that?

Yeah, when he was
giving me advice.

Nice.

Carry on.

Hey, why'd I get a call
from my contact at Ellsworth

saying no deal
on sharing the water?

Because there is no deal.
Their terms were unfavorable.

Horseshoe Bay will just stick
to its own water for now.

It seems just fine to me,
by the way.

Please go back
and negotiate with Ellsworth.

Please, I am begging you
to take this seriously.

I don't tell you
how to run your restaurant.

Don't tell me how to run
the council.

Now, pic for the official Insta.

Councilwoman getting takeout

from her favorite
small business owner.

Seriously?

Publicity is publicity.

I'm not some prop you can use
to curry favor with the town.

You have a lot to learn, Nick.

Next town council meeting's
Tuesday.

What was that all about?

Council nixed our plan.

They're not gonna shut down
the water or test it.

What are you
gonna do about it?

I'm trying to figure it out.

Like how you tried with Jesse?

I asked you to talk some sense
into her,

and you said
I had boundary issues.

You do.

So, that makes me
a bad parental figure?

I didn't say that.
(clears throat)

I don't even know why I got
involved in the first place.

Because Jesse depends on you.

You depend on me.

What, so now you're just
gonna ice me and my sisters out?

Nick, I thought
that we were good.

After a breakup,
people get space.

They don't immediately
have to co-parent

and co-run a business.

I need space.

O-Okay.

How can I help you?

I want to talk to you
about my son Avery.

I checked his search history
on his laptop.

He was looking up
demonic possessions

and occult rituals.

Okay, uh, it sounds like
he has some questions.

And maybe you do, too.

I have some artifacts
and ritual books

I can show you
if you're interested.

I'm not.
Neither is Avery.

Okay.

The supernatural is real.

And if he's curious,
we might as well talk about it.

Isn't that our job?

What my son learns
is my job.

Chief Lovett's
gonna hear about this.

You can kiss my donation
goodbye.

(door opens)

-(sighs)
-(door closes)

Hey.

Do we have to leave?

No.
No, you are welcome to stay.

You have a right to learn
all of this.

I just might not have
as much time to teach you

as I thought.

Now, where were we?

So, the sigil of great danger...

(line ringing)

This is Jean Rosario.
Please leave a message.

(beep)

Hey, Jean.

You were right.

I think I am still working
through Kate's death,

even when I tell myself
I'm not.

(sighs)

I've decided to join
a widowers' support group.

I want to be with you,

and I want to be the best
version of myself for you.

Call me when you come up
for air.

(sighs)

Hey, I'm glad you're here.

I was just looking
at this concoction

that the Incan people believe
can dissolve a love curse.

Shouldn't you be resting?

Well, there's no time to rest.
I'm still all in.

I was thinking
maybe we slow down a sec,

and we can talk
this thing through.

What is there to talk about?

I don't know, um...

If there is a death curse on us,

maybe it would be better
to not fight it,

and exist in the world together.

As friends.

Did you not feel what I felt?

Of course I did.

But then you weren't breathing,

and I was holding you
in my arms

and going through everything
that you went through

in Temperance's hallucination,
and it was awful.

-Yeah.
-And I-I get-- I totally get

why you were hesitant
to tell me the truth.

Right, but I'm not
scared anymore.

I let fear keep me away
from you for too long.

Temperance was a hundred steps
ahead of us.

This time
she got to the flowers.

Next time it could be
something else.

No matter what we try,
she could have sabotaged it.

She said you were gonna die,
and you didn't!

No.

But watching you collapse
almost killed me.

Say we do try again.

Maybe we think
we broke the curse.

How will we ever know that
she didn't plan another twist?

We will always be looking
over our shoulder.

What kind of future is that?

I am in this
because of you.

You said this is what
you wanted.

I still do.

I want to be with you
more than anything.

But it is not worth the risk.

We were friends before
for a long time.

Even when we had secret feelings
for each other,

we shoved them down, and...

we'd still be
in each other's lives.

We manage.

I know what it's like
to kiss you now,

and for that to be real

and not some hallucination.

And I can't...
(sighs)

I can't pretend
that never happened.

-I can't go back.
-I can't go forward.

Not like this.

But what about the sunset
in Paris?

And the hot air balloon ride?

It would have been perfect.

You're not just leaving.

Oh, it hurts too much
to be here.

(shudders)

(thunder rumbling)

Hey, it's Brie.
I took care of the water thing.

See you Tuesday
at the council meeting.
