-George?
-Hm?

[exclaims] Looking very profresh.

Can't talk. Got to stick
to a very diligent schedule

Carson made me.

Um... you're-you're sitting together?

But not too together.

Okay, no contact. Smart.

Word of our curse travels fast.

I went to Bess for moral support.

Bess went to everyone else
for moral support.

I'm trying to process this whole thing,

but I need more information.

You don't.

Temperance cursed us.

She got inside my head
and I made the decision

to kill her anyway. And as a result,

we can't act
on our feelings for each other,

and that's all you need to know.

Define "got in your head."

What aren't you telling me?

It won't change anything.

So, there is something.

And if-if it doesn't change anything,

then why not just tell me?

I want to know how you know

about the curse.

Are you looking for loopholes?

-Can you blame me?
-Yes.

The stakes are too high. You will die.

Jade. Nonbinary.

[sighs] Exquisite.

-They slid into my DMs.
-[snorts]

-Did I use "DMs" right?
-Mm-hmm.

Huh. We're going to brunch.

Ooh, look at you, getting back out there.

What? No. No, no, no, no, no, no. No, no.

This is not getting back out there.

Oh, please. I mean,
this is like your first

first date since high school
with someone that

you haven't already hooked up with

and who isn't in our friend group.

Wow.

-I'm getting back out there.
-Mm-hmm.

Hey, what do you think?

No hat.

-Hat.
-[clears throat]

Thank you.

My revised legal memo and an egg sandwich

is the way to Judge Abbott's heart.

I just want him to know how grateful I am

for the opportunity to be his clerk.

-Mm. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
-Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. -Oh, and Nick.

It's fine, we're cool.

-[Abbott grunts, groans]
-[clattering]

What the hell?

What's wrong? What are you doing?

Oh, my God, Judge Abbott, are you okay?

Stay away from Magpie Lake.

What?

♪ ♪

-Mmm.
-Mm-hmm.

Mmm! Oh, that's good.

Am I getting hints of, uh...
rose and mint?

Yes! Yes, I'm gonna be
serving that to your parents

with dessert tonight,
so it's a British flair

to follow my famous

lentil soup.

I'm gonna make the best first impression.

Well, it doesn't have to be lentils.

Uh, my parents aren't big soup people.

You know, I wasn't married to soup.

Okay, um...

This just means a lot to me.

You know, my parents
won't be coming to dinner

anytime soon. Or ever.

This is our one chance

to take this big relationship step.

Right. Well, um...

My parents are... they're particular.

But if you're up for the challenge,

they like salmon.

Uh, like fish and chips?

Mm, maybe less fried and more elevated.

Okay, um, some salmon croquettes?

Mm, that's still kinda fried, though.

-Oh, yeah.
-Think salmon

that you would eat with a fork and knife.

-Maybe we need more time.
-Hey. No, no, no, no, no.

I can do fork and knife salmon.

It's gonna be perfect.

Since when do you give up so easily?

We defeated Temperance before,
we can do it again.

-You weren't there.
-Wasn't where?

I'm in this curse too.

Please just stop
pushing me away and tell me.

I'm trying to be strong, okay?
I can't go there.

I can't let those feelings in right now.

[door opens]

Tristan, uh, Ace.

Ace, Tristan Glass.

-New lobster guy.
-Oh.

He started after...

you left to work at the morgue.

Nancy, guess you're not
running away from me this time.

I was following a lead,

-and you weren't the lead.
-TRISTAN: Ah.

Never the lead.
This is just like high school.

[weak chuckle]

Got a lobster delivery.

In that tiny cooler?

Yeah, I had to barter these
from a competitor.

My boat got a little impounded.

Turns out the harbor security guard

didn't make empty threats.
But as soon as I get

the Joleneback,
you'll be knee-deep in snappers.

Joleneis a solid boat name.

I, uh, can ask George
to give you a pay advance.

I appreciate that, but don't feel bad.

I made my own bed.

And I'd save you again in a heartbeat.

Man, I made my bed too.
I make it every day.

-I made it this morning.
-[phone vibrates]

Hey, George.

[George speaking indistinctly]

What happened?

GEORGE: I told the paramedics this was

not a normal heart attack, but
they didn't take me seriously.

And look, Nancy, I'm wearing a blazer.

I am not a doctor, but veins don't just

turn black like that. I'm not saying

it was supernatural,
but maybe supernatural-adjacent?

-We have to help him.
-We're gonna figure it out.

That's what we do, right?

-Yeah.
-NANCY: I'll get some pictures for evidence.

So, why did Abbott suddenly
want to destroy that file?

And why did he tell you
not to go to Magpie Lake?

I have no idea what Magpie Lake is.

But I'll take a look
at the file right now.

I checked Abbott's texts,

emails, call-logs to see
if he received any threats.

But I can't find anything.

Well, what caused his sudden
change of behavior, his panic?

When you left Abbott,
he was drinking water?

Yeah. I filled up his cup

with the pitcher from the fridge.

-Could he have been poisoned?
-Can I see it?

Does this look cloudy to you?

-[gasping]
-Oh...

Tell me the potentially poisoned water

didn't just get into your mouth.

Yeah, well...

-She seems okay.
-Yeah,

so did Abbott, at first.

I mean, I think I'm fine.

We should get the...
we should get the water

in the-in the pitcher tested,
just in case.

Any hits on Magpie Lake?

Nope.

Saved by the case, huh?

Great way to avoid
what's going on with us.

That's not fair.

Not a chance, lady.

[car honks]

You know, she was to your right.

Yeah, and I got there first.

You can be the windshield

or you can be the bug.

So, how's it feel to be trending?

-I'm-I'm trendy?
-Trending. Uh,

-your video is trending.
-Oh.

How is it possible you didn't know?

Um, I just got on social media.

Okay, now, how is that possible?

Wow, this is embarrassing for you

and probably your loved ones.

It's a good thing you met me.

-Hm.
-You're a small business owner, right?

Oh. Oh, you... you looked me up.

I work in PR.

I could help you capitalize

on the popularity of your last video.

I did a bunch of work for Harbor Joe's.

Think you should check out their socials.

Could help you build a cross-promotion...

I'm sorry, should I be
taking notes here or...

[phone vibrates]

Um, sorry, excuse me.

Uh, Ace. [clears throat]

what's going on? I'm kinda...

in the middle of something.

Oh. Sorry to interrupt.

We have an emergency.

-[clatters]
-Swish.

Abbott's tox screen came back negative.

But who knows what they were
even screening for?

It's not like the paramedics passed along

-my useful information.
-Yeah, they were douches.

Were they hot? The least they could do

is be hot douches, am I right? Up high.

BESS: Okay, could someone pass me a lemon?

A lemon-miso glaze is elevated, right?

Even for Addy's particular parents?

[imitates whip crack]

-Did you just wh...
-Call me whipped?

NANCY: Hey-o!

Just the guys I was missing.

Party starts now.

The game is: who can
be the first to figure out why

Abbott wanted to destroy this file

and what happened
at Magpie Lake. Here we go!

Not sure why it's a competition,
but I did just finish

-looking through the...
-Yeah, me too, 20 minutes ago.

It's a case summary of a trial

Judge Abbott presided over
in 1996. A teenager,

Logan Rhodes, was charged with

breaking into his classmate's house.

The classmate was a minor
so their name was redacted.

Abbott dismissed the charges
on insufficient evidence.

-Nothing too damaging in there.
-GEORGE: Wait, and there was

-no mention of the lake?
-ACE: Nick and I have been doing

an extensive search.

Closest Magpie Lake... 3,000 miles away.

NANCY: Let me see that.

Hey, we should talk to Logan Rhodes.

He lives in Eastville.

Wait, if Logan is in Eastville,
that's only

-ten minutes away from here.
-NANCY: Right.

We should talk to Logan.
Good thinking, George.

Thanks, that was my thinking.

-But...
-You know, you should smile.

Guys are easily 25% hotter
with teeth visible.

You're all hearing this, right?

Yeah, something is definitely wrong.

Yeah, it's like she's
mentally turned into a dude.

And now she's Nan-spreading.

Yeah, but do all dudes act like that?

Nick and I don't act like that, right?

Oh, you're not capable of achieving

this level of awesome. It's not
your fault. It's biology.

BESS: Right, yeah, I know this guy.

She's acting like a straight cis-female

gender-swapped version of a bro-y guy.

Oh, completely clear, thanks.

ACE: This must've all started when

she got splashed with Abbott's water.

Must have done something to Nancy.

I'm fine. Chill.

I'll get that.

Okay. So, what was in that water...

Some mystical bro-licious poison?

Can one poison give Abbott
a heart attack and also

turn Nancy into the type of guy
that I will never date?

If the poison affected Abbott's behavior,

maybe it sent him into distress,
causing the heart attack.

I'll, uh, look it up and see
if I can find an antidote.

All while perfectly searing this salmon.

At least Bro-Nancy is, you know, harmless

and somewhat entertaining.

Yeah, we're all amused.
We need to figure out

who poisoned Judge Abbott.
Solve Abbott, solve Bro-Nancy.

Well, I loosened it for you.

You and me... we're
going to Logan's house.

Great. George and I'll check
on Abbott, see if he's talking.

NANCY: And, hey, Bess, you're
gonna cook the hell out of this meal.

-You got this.
-Mm.

Hey.

You got the EMTs there quickly.

He's lucky you were with him.

Yeah, I just...

I just want him to be okay.

You know, I know
Judge Abbott was hard on me...

Probably on everyone...
But he really cares.

I mean, I don't... I...

He gave me a clerkship
and I'm not even in law school.

This whole lawyer dream
feels doable because of him.

I never got to tell him how much
I appreciate everything.

You will.

Okay, talk to me about something else.

How was your date with Jade?

Oh, no, we don't need to...

Did you spark with her?

Their pronouns are they/them.

I-I don't even know
if it counts as a date.

It felt like...

PR coaching.

Mm-hmm. Were you disappointed?

Disappointed I lost my hat.

I left it at the café.

Not sure I'd call that a loss.

I'm sorry, Judge Abbott
was just admitted to surgery.

He can't see you now,
but here's the number

for the nurse's station.

-NANCY: Logan Rhodes.
-ACE: Do you drink

-all that in one day?
-Three times.

Yeah, the motivational markers help.

I got a whole selection of 'em in my gym.

You lift?

-I can get you a guest pass.
-Okay,

back to Judge Abbott.

We think someone caused his heart attack.

Think someone came after him.

-Oh, that's awful.
-Before Abbott lost

consciousness, he tried
to rip up a file containing

a summary of your trial.

Wait, you don't think I did it.

That was over 20 years ago.
And it was nothing.

I broke into a house on a dare.
Judge Abbott

knew I came from a hardworking family,

he could tell I was a good kid,
and he dismissed the charges.

I was so grateful I even
brought him a thank-you gift.

Okay, we get it.

You're, like, in love with Abbott.

But judges aren't allowed to accept gifts.

Well, it wasn't expensive.

And you never crossed paths again?

Not even at Magpie Lake?

Uh, Magpie Lake isn't a lake.

She's a girl. The one
whose house I broke into.

Margaret Pyne Lake. She went by Maggie,

so we called her Magpie. Magpie Lake.

Margaret Pyne...

is this the same Margaret Pyne Lake

who, um, fell and almost died in '96?

Uh, yeah. A few weeks
after my trial ended,

she hit her head. It was a freak accident.

Was it? An accident?

-What are you implying?
-She's the reason you almost

went to jail.
You must've been pretty upset.

Why? I didn't go to jail.

-It all went away.
-Because Abbott thought

you were a really good kid.

Did you prove him wrong?

We should go. We'll go.

-I'm not done here.
-Go.

But you can wait in the car.

We are done. My daughters

will be home soon, so...

Have a good one.

What the hell is wrong with you?

Me? Look, do you want to solve the case

or do you just want
to antagonize that guy?

I need to know what happened in 1996

so I can figure out
who would come after Abbott now.

That is how you conduct an investigation.

You just accused Logan without evidence.

You're not yourself right now.

-I'm trying...
-To control me?

You cannot take it
if I don't want to do things

the way that you want to do
things, so you keep pushing.

-You never leave anything alone.
-Is this you talking?

-Is it the poisoned water?
-Find your own ride home.

Ace sent you to babysit me?

Dude's been so dramatic all day.

You abandoned him at Logan's.

Abandoned? He was slowing me down.

Do you really think Logan hurt Maggie?

I think we need to figure out

if Maggie's fall was really an accident.

WOMAN: Logan asked me out

a few times in high school.

But he wasn't my type.

A few times? Sounds needy.

My friends told me to be flattered.

He broke into your house.

That's not flattering, it's creepy, right?

It was a goof.

My accident put everything
into perspective.

Okay, do you mind telling us
about that, please?

I'd had a few drinks at a party

and decided to walk home alone.

Not the smartest move.

I tripped and hit my head on the curb.

I changed my life with one
misstep, and I did it to myself.

What I put my parents through...
They still help support me.

I get such terrible migraines
I can only teach part-time.

NANCY: There was one
of these in Abbott's office.

You collect horse statuettes?

[chuckles] Since I was a little kid.

I was so grateful I even
brought him a thank-you gift.

Did any of them disappear

the night Logan broke into your home?

Where did you find that?

Sorry, what was that?

Just trying to have it all
and... succeeding.

NANCY: George and I
went to Abbott's office

and liberated that bad boy. We
think Logan stole it from Maggie

when he broke into her house
and then gave it to Abbott

-as a thank-you gift.
-Maybe some kind of power play?

Logan seems sus.

But he has no motive to poison Abbott.

Abbott gave him a free pass.

Exactly, so, if Logan hurt Maggie,

as I suspect, Abbott could've
prevented the attack.

But Abbott let Logan walk.

This is what happens when men let

their emotions make
their decisions for them.

But Judge Abbott? I really thought that

he was above all this old boys' club crap.

Do you think Maggie or someone
close to her came after Abbott?

But Maggie said that
she was alone when she fell.

-That it was an accident.
-NANCY: Well, she's

wrong. Abbott was poisoned,

and it has something
to do with this trial.

Otherwise he wouldn't
try and destroy the file.

We need Maggie's medical records

to figure out
what actually happened to her.

Ace, hey, you're up.

Go to the records room,
get us what we need.

-Physically?
-I'm a hacker. I get it done with my fingers.

Don't tempt me.

Look, it has to be you,

you've got the morgue credentials,

which you still have because

-I got you out of jail.
-Yeah, for something

-that I didn't do.
-Come on.

Be a team player.

Show us you're more than just eye candy.

Wow.

Hey. Um, yes, actually,
I was just wondering...

Is he flirting with her?

Are you... being possessive?

[Ace clears throat]

These all validate Maggie's story.

See, the shape of her head wound is

consistent with hitting a curb.

This can't be right.
Did you get all her files?

Yes. X-rays, photos, blood tests.

They even sent her records

to a head trauma specialist in Bangor.

There's no medical reason to
believe that Logan hurt Maggie.

What, you flirt with one nurse,
and then all of a sudden

you're a medical expert? [chuckles]

I'm kidding.

As if I care who you flirt with.
Also, you had no shot.

What, you can't take a joke now?!

Okay, no.

N-No, no, no, n... That's it, enough.

No more sad truffle shaving.

Talk to me, please, now.

Okay.

For weeks, Nancy's been
pushing me away. She said

it's because she cared about me.

That she had to. She was
protecting me from a curse.

But today, she's treating me like I'm...

Yeah, like an object. A piece of meat.

A big old flank steak.

And I know it's not her fault she's, like,

she's not herself. She's been poisoned.

She can't even see that she's being awful.

-But it still...
-Hurts.

She's hurting you.

You know, you don't need to make excuses.

Your feelings are valid.

Whatever toxic bro-ness
is affecting Nancy,

we will solve the case,

find an antidote,
and get her back to normal.

Well, we're already keeping
our distance from each other.

I'll just make it more distance.

Just put on the armor.
Hope I don't run into her.

Okay.

Keep an eye on dinner.

I am gonna back to the historical society

and research a way
to alleviate the poison.

There must be something that we can do.

Okay, hold tight,

stir the sauce, please.

And I'll be back soon.

-Okay.
-Okay? I appreciate you.

Appreciate you.

But keep an eye out for lumps.

-No lumps.
-No lumps.

Ace.

I'm sorry.

I've been horrible.

You're a great guy. The best guy.

I need you in my life.

How can I make us okay?

Let's not do this right now, okay?

You were right earlier.

I haven't told you everything.

But I will.

I'll tell you all about the time

we did get together.

No. I'm done.

Are you rejecting me?

I'm not rejecting you. I mean...

-Hey!
-[grunting]

Hey.

[grunts, groans]

-Hey!
-[thudding]

Dial Bess, please. Bess, please.

Clear-i-tea. A mild,

mystical sedative.

It won't undo the poison but it should

give you some, well, clarity.

-Temporarily, at least.
-What, like I'm a lightweight?

There she goes.

Did it work? Is she all right?

[gasps]

Ace, I'm so sorry that I attacked you.

I should be feeling remorse.

And I want to...

but it is not there.

The tea is working.
It's allowing her to have

a removed perspective
on what she's going through.

What are you going through?

For weeks, I've had all these complicated,

painful th... things that I feel for you.

That anguish of not
getting to be with you.

Fear that I'll get you killed.

The guilt that follows.
And then I got hit with this...

water, and it's like all those
feelings are locked away.

I can't get to them, and all I feel

is this anger.

Shuts down everything else.

GEORGE: So, basically,
it's like what could happen

if you'd been raised to be masculine

-with a capital M.
-Hence dealing with pain

by acting tough and aggressive.

Responding to a "no" by trying

to assert your dominance over Ace.

-That's how it felt.
-[phone vibrates]

[Bess chuckles]

-You are never gonna guess.
-Hmm?

Ryan found a supernatural stomach pump.

-Oh...
-Yup, never would've guessed that.

BESS: Wow, yeah, he's been
doing relic recon on the Glasses

since they stole my shipment of artifacts,

and they have
an occult purification device.

We can use it to remove the effects

of the tainted water from Nancy.

Well, uncuff me.

Got to go get my hands on that
hot lobster guy's family relic.

Sorry. The tea is wearing off.

Nancy. George. Handcuffs.

I caught a case of toxic
gender-swapped masculinity.

Long story. I'll try
not to say anything degrading,

like how good
your arms look in that shirt.

-Hey.
-Sorry.

But you should be flattered.

Anyway, the only way
to get this toxicity out of me

is with a supernatural
stomach pump your parents have.

I don't mess with their relics.
I prefer the simple sea life.

NANCY: Which is why you need your boat.

The one that got impounded because of me.

I get why you don't want to help me again.

And I'm gonna get
your boat back. Either way.

You're asking me to break
into my parents' stash.

If I do that, I need assurance

to make sure I get
this stomach thing back.

-So they don't notice it.
-We've learned our lesson

offering collateral to the Glasses.

What did my parents do? Don't answer.

But I'm not like them.

I believe you. And that's not just

because you're the only option here.

You want some assurance?

Here, take this.

It's very important to me.

We good?

You ready to say goodbye to toxicity?

-Um, don't really feel like I'm that tox...
-Shush.

[grunting]

GEORGE: Okay. Just a moment. Good?

-Yeah.
-There you go.

[pump hissing]

[grunting]

Hey, you got this, Nancy.
It's gonna be okay.

BESS: Okay...

Are you okay?

-Oh!
-Whoa!

Oh, my God!

NICK: What did you eat?

Yeah.

Just an overwhelming amount of emotion

flooding back at once.

Everything that was being
suppressed by Abbott's water.

I'm so sorry.

It's fine.

Probably just come out with seltzer water.

[scoffs] My dinner is doomed.

We've seen this before.

NICK: It's the same
sludge that came out of

the eight reanimated corpses
before they...

-crumbled into a heap.
-Wait, what does this have to do

with Judge Abbott being poisoned?

There's more going on here
than we realize.

[scoffs]

Things weren't adding up,

so I hacked into Maggie's
medical records from 1996,

ones that were sent
to a head trauma specialist

in Bangor for a phone consultation.

I compared the photos in the Bangor files

with the ones from Palley
General right here in town.

Now, these photos should be identical.

They have the same timestamp.

But the wounds look different.

This has two gashes.

A curb wouldn't leave these marks.

Based on those lacerations,

it looks like
Maggie was hit with an object.

GEORGE: I'm still not a
doctor, but those lacerations

fit the shape of that horse.

Which would confirm Nancy's theory

that Logan attacked Maggie.

If that's the case,
someone not only altered

Maggie's medical records in Horseshoe Bay,

they changed her actual memory.

We've seen memory erasing before.

Logan was so forthcoming
about Maggie's accident.

It's like he didn't even know
he had anything to hide.

You think his memories were altered, too?

Wait, but what about Abbott?
He suddenly cares about

something that happened 20 years ago?

After drinking
supernaturally tainted water.

If Abbott's memories
of the attack were altered,

then drinking the water
must have restored them.

A memory so upsetting
it triggered a heart attack.

Okay, say the water did that to Abbott.

Why did it turn Nancy
into a ticking toxic rage bomb?

NANCY: When I attacked Ace,

I wasn't just trying to hurt him,

I was compelled to hit him in the head.

And I used that horse.
That can't be a coincidence.

Something in the water
made you want to relive

-Logan's attack on Maggie?
-More like Logan's mindset

and emotions of the crime
mystically latched onto me.

Like when I absorbed the lust
from the wedding dress.

[short chuckle] Yeah, but less fun.

Did someone want Abbott
to remember what happened?

Spiked his water?

NANCY: If you're gonna
spike anybody's water,

why not spike Logan's?

All Abbott did was
make a horrible judgment call

on the case of a teenage boy

breaking into his crush's house.
That's a small case.

Could be it wasn't so small for Abbott.

He was up for reappointment
at the time he gave Logan

his "boys will be boys" pass
for the break-in.

That is all kinds of disappointing.

ACE: So, because Logan wasn't in jail

he was able to go assault Maggie.

NICK: If that's true, Logan
could have gone back

to Abbott to ask for help.
Stay out of jail again.

Did Abbott try to make all this go away

to protect his reputation and his job?

BESS: Could Abbott
and Logan have pulled off

some kind of massive supernatural coverup?

How? And what does it have to do

with the eight re-animated bodies

and the sludge they released?

Uh, and why is this coverup
coming undone now?

Hey, it's-it's just a little bit

-of a mishap.
-You know, usually

I love British understatement, but,

wow, I knew I should have
called off dinner.

You were gonna call off
dinner before all of this?

You never wanted me
to meet your parents, did you?

Fine. You're right. You got me.

Why? 'Cause I'm the soup? And you just

-knew... you knew that they were gonna hate me.
-No, no!

It's because I didn't want them
to ruin what we have.

My parents are not just particular.

They're involved. In everything I do

and-and everyone I date.

It... Look, they will call you

and they will text you and they will

judge you.

Look, the problem is I...

I really like you, Bess.

And I'm terrified

that they're gonna scare you off.

[chuckling, sniffling] Have you seen me?

I don't scare.

Easily. Okay?

I say bring them on.

They're gonna love me.

And if they don't?

Well, I'm not going anywhere.

Okay? This dinner is happening.

Okay?

We're here to apologize.

Brought a little something for the girls.

Yeah, come in.

I'm still trying to figure out
why you let Logan walk

after he broke into Maggie's house.

I thought he was just
a boy with a crush. Harmless.

Even if you believed that
at the time, a few weeks later

you found out that wasn't true.

GEORGE: You told me to
stay away from Maggie because

you didn't want me
to figure out what you did.

But we know everything. We know...

NANCY: You followed Maggie home

with the horse you stole from her.

Maggie, s-stop.

Enough. Leave me alone.

NANCY: When she turned you down again,

you snapped and nearly killed her.

This isn't an apology.
This is an absurd accusation.

-You need to go.
-You don't remember

attacking her, but you know
you're capable of it.

Oh, I know what this is.

Yeah, you're trying to cancel me.

You're one of those people
that manufactures reasons

to destroy innocent men.

You know how it felt
when Maggie rejected you.

-It was humiliating.
-I have daughters.

-I...
-NANCY: You want to protect them?

From whom... men like you?

Is that why you lift?
So you can beat up any guy

who won't take no for an answer?

Hey, I-I'm sorry,

I really thought that
she was gonna apologize.

She brought these stickers
and everything. I'll get her

out of your hair. Let's go, come on.

NICK: There must have been

some other reason that you helped him.

Please, tell me there was
a gun to your head

or-or that your family was threatened.

I... I-I've made some mistakes

in my career that I'm not proud of.

Mistake?

This was more than a mistake.

Logan came to you
with the weapon from the crime

and asked for your help.

Wait here.

You covered up an attempted murder

-to ensure that you'd get reappointed.
-You don't know

what it's like
to have to decide between...

My prospects and doing the right thing?

Judge Abbott, you

were my prospect of becoming a lawyer,

but I am giving all of that up right now

to get justice for Maggie,
because that is what matters.

You're a judge.
How-how do you not know that?

Maggie spent the last 20 years

suffering from what Logan did to her

and blaming herself for what happened,

while you and Logan
lived normal, healthy lives.

You remember now?

What you did to Maggie that night?

You'll never be able to prove that.

Nobody will believe you.

Tell us how you changed
the hospital photo.

No, I didn't. It was all Abbott.

Abbott knew how to do it.

I didn't remember what
the horse statue really was.

-I-I thought it was a gift.
-Until today, when you drank the water

-and the memories came back.
-How did you cover it all up

-in the first place, hmm?
-Leave this alone, George.

I am no longer interested in your advice.

I will figure out how you did this

-and I will expose you.
-I'm warning you.

If you pull this thread,

everything will fall apart.

GEORGE: Logan's behavior should've
been stopped before it escalated.

This was not your fault.

You deserve to know the truth.

But if Logan attacked me, why do I have

a distinctly different memory?

And why were my medical records

changed in Horseshoe Bay but not Bangor?

I really wish we could
answer that right now.

We're getting closer to figuring out

how Abbott and Logan did this,
and I promise we will.

This is a lot to take in.

But you were right to tell me.

Thank you.

Should we load the trays by courses?

They're here.

[whimpers]

-We've got this.
-Yeah.

-Okay.
-[knocking]

Come in.

Mr. and Mrs. Soctomah,

it is such a pleasure to meet you guys.

[weak chuckle]

Hey.

I made some calls.

The Jolenehas been sprung.

Pleasure doing business with you.

Mm.

It's a beautiful necklace.

Oh, thanks.

The locket was my mom's.

I've worn it every day since she passed.

And the compass was my birth mother's.

It's all I have of her.

I was adopted, too.

So, thanks for trusting me with these.

Can I help? My arms don't just
look good in a shirt,

they actually have excellent
fine motor skills.

Mm.

Thanks.

You and your arms

have a great night.

[chuckles]

GEORGE: Thanks for being there today.

I just wish I could have done more.

People like Abbott have enabled
the Logans of this world

to go unchecked forever.

Today, you checked him.

And the best part is

it is so clear you're gonna keep doing it.

That means more than you know.

So... [short chuckle]

can I help you with Jade?

Oh...

What are you actually looking for here?

Be honest. PR coaching? A date? A hook-up?

[sighs]

A conversation.

I want to get to know them.

In a real way.

[bell jingles]

Here's your chance.

[chuckles]

My hat found a publicist.

Oh. Is it trending now, or...

I was heavy on the shop talk, huh?

Talking about work is my crutch.

I lean on it when I get nervous.

Hmm.

Do all your networking meetings

make you nervous, or...

Wow, was I that bad

that you couldn't even tell it was a date?

Okay, that's... good feedback.

No, no, I-I...
I obviously knew it was a...

[clears throat] ...a date, uh,
not-not even a question, so...

Hm, bad at lying.

That's the opposite of a red flag.

[chuckles]

So, um, what are you doing right now?

Going on a...

date-date.

I hope.

Okay.

[knocking]

Apology bagels?

With a side of pickles.

Tough crowd.

Here's what it is:

I was afraid of my feelings for you.

And then I experienced what it was like

to have those feelings

locked up, out of my reach.

I became so frustrated and angry.

I couldn't be myself.
I turned into a monster.

And I never want to feel like that again.

And no one should ever
have to feel like that.

So...

I'm ready to tell you
how I know about the curse.

We spent

days together.

The most amazing days.

And then it was all taken away.

And you died in my arms.

That's a terrible,

terrible hallucination.

It didn't feel like a hallucination.

It felt so real.

I'm sorry.

I was only thinking about this
from my perspective.

-I know.
-I got frustrated,

I even got... I got angry

when you wouldn't tell me
what I wanted to hear.

Well, I tried to kill you earlier

for rejecting me, so...

let's call it even.

I'm still terrified of losing you.

But I think that we owe it to ourselves

to at least try

to find a way to be together.

Yeah.

Yes, that's all I want.

Can you tell me, like, some good things

-from this hallucination?
-Mm...

So that I m-I might know
what I have to look forward to.

What do you want to know?

Well, everything.

We went for a walk.

That's how it started.

♪ ♪

[bell jingles]

Hey, George. Got your text.

-What's going on?
-I just can't stop

thinking about what Abbott said.

What thread are we pulling?

What is going to fall apart?
It doesn't feel like

the coverup ends with him.

It feels much bigger than that.

And then I remember how it started.

How Abbott took one drink.

And then how the eight corpses
released the sludge

not far from the town reservoir, and...

WAITRESS: Can I get you some more water?

Um... Nick,

I think there's something in the water.
