Enid follows Wednesday’s lead, which turns out to be a birthday surprise party for Wednesday. As they sing her happy birthday, she observes that the writing on the old fireplace is identical to the writings that were burned on the school’s lawn. She sees Goody alerting her of Crackstone’s imminent visit in a vision. She asks Wednesday to seek a position in the vision and informs her that, as a raven psychic, she will have a solitary journey that will leave her unable to trust others. She also informs her that time is running out.
The following day, Wednesday is still dissatisfied with her surprise birthday party and is unfriendly towards Thing. Enid informs her that the party was her idea and gives her a birthday gift in addition to the one provided by her parents.

He believes he knows who is behind the attacks and requests a meeting with the sheriff at the cafe.
He drives to the cafe oblivious to the fact that Wednesday and Thing are concealed in his trunk. As he crosses the street, a blue Cadillac without license plates strikes him and then flees. Fortunately, he is brought to the hospital and may survive. Wednesday informs the sheriff that everything is connected to the Gates family, but he does not believe her because he is aware that they are all deceased.

The three of them tour the eerie old estate and discover that Laurel Gates’ chamber has been cleaned. It appears that someone has lived there. Before Enid and Wednesday can investigate further, they hear Tyler yelling for aid and warning them of the creature.
Enid and Wednesday are pursued by the monster through the home and end up in the basement. They discover the trophies the monster took from his victims in the basement. They do not have much time, so Wednesday is compelled to search swiftly before escaping. They leave the house and return to locate Tyler. They discover him alive but with a shoulder bruise. Xavier arrives at the same time and assists them with Tyler. They bring him home, where his father is furious because he is injured.
