You've been at this forever, Dorothy.
It's pointless.
How can you say that, Ada?
Can't you feel him?
He's close now.
You keep on doing the same thing, but nothing ever happens.
Perhaps if I had some assistance.
-On three, two, one.
I told you it would work.
Kinsey! Bode!
Time for lunch!
Ha!
-Beat you again. -This game is rigged!
It's not like I chose to be a sparrow.
-Although, it does have some advantages.
I can always get my bird friends to poop on your car.
You don't have any bird friends.
-Not yet.
So, I think almost all the prep work for the wedding's finally done, and…
Oh, I wanted to show you guys something.
I never noticed this before.
It fell off the bookshelf in the winter study.
Isn't it cool?
I think there might be something magical about it.
You also thought that about the record player.
And the weird old squirrel figurine.
Okay, okay, fair, but look.
Keyhouse is in it.
Why would someone make a snow globe with their house in it if it wasn't?
But it doesn't have a keyhole.
Maybe, and just hear me out,
maybe it's just a very cool antique snow globe.
You hear anything from Tyler?
Well, yesterday, he liked one of my texts, so we can assume he's still alive.
Well, good.
That's good?
Ah. I guess the bar is even lower than I thought.
He wanted time on his own.
We have to respect that.
When he's ready, I'm sure he'll start communicating more.
In the meantime, we just need to carry on with our own thing.
It's been two months since he left.
I kind of figured he'd be back already.
Yeah, but we've been having a lot of fun of our own, right?
Well, yeah.
And I'd say we're doing pretty great. I mean, Dodge is gone.
We haven't heard anything from Eden.
Things are finally kind of normal.
Well, except for you.
You're the weirdo.
Where is it?
Oh, so, um, Duncan said Brian's mother
can't be seated within 50 feet of his great aunt Sharon.
He didn't explain.
Okay, I'll switch her out with one of Duncan's Fish-Head College friends.
Great.
I think everything else looks good unless you spot any other powder kegs.
The wedding's Saturday.
I think it's safe to give his seat to someone else.
What about Cousin Frank from Phoenix?
I don't think I can handle that many knock-knock jokes in one evening.
-They're a family tradition. -Your dad's side of the family.
Maybe you could ask someone.
Me? No.
You're entitled to a plus-one.
Why don't you ask Josh?
Oh. Um…
I… I don't think I'm ready.
Jamie's already gonna be there hanging out with Bode.
I think it would actually be nice if you asked him.
I'll think about it.
Feel good to be back?
Nebraska's nice, but what can I say?
I'm a man of the sea.
Ellie!
You're probably wondering where I've been.
Oh, you don't have to explain.
Do you feel any different?
Not knowing about magic,
having that separate me from my kids
was hard.
Now we can connect.
I know what they've been through
and what you and Rendell and your friends went through.
So then, you know my part.
Bringing back Lucas is what started it all.
Oh, you had no way of knowing what would happen.
Besides, I think the keys work on you unconsciously.
They wanna be used.
Good, bad, they don't care.
I'm incredibly sorry about what happened to you.
I know the kids feel horrible.
It's not on them.
It was all Dodge. It's not their fault.
Have you heard from Lucas?
I don't expect to. He needed to get out of here.
Start fresh someplace else.
Can't say I blame him.
Honestly, I wanted to start someplace else too.
But Rufus, he had his heart set on coming back here, so…
…we're renting a little place down by the water.
I couldn't bring myself to move back into the old house.
Sure, that makes sense.
I'm expecting a lot of looks and questions.
Apparently, everyone thinks I was found wandering outside of Pittsburgh
and that I couldn't even remember my own name.
Better than the truth.
Ellie.
What was it like?
That other place.
It was
like time and space didn't even exist over there.
And I was just…
drifting in…
It's kind of like trying to remember a bad dream where
all that's left of it after is that feeling.
And it's, um…
it's a feeling that I hope I never have again.
This film, it's exactly what I was hoping for.
It's gonna be just what Matheson needs
to get our tourism revenue back on track after the effect of recent tragedies.
I hope so, Mr. Shaw.
We are just so happy that you hired us to do it.
I can hear the plummy voice of the narrator.
"Matheson Massachusetts,
home of revolutionary history, stunning cliffs,
rich New England clam chowder--"
And the occasional mass fatality.
Doug.
No.
Seriously. I mean, maybe we should lean into that.
We… We could use this film to… to really target the dark tourism crowd.
And how about this.
Matheson Massachusetts. Home of unexplained massacres.
You should check out the tourism numbers at Chernobyl.
-He's joking. -Oh.
Chernobyl, yeah. That…
-Funny. Yeah. -…is funny.
Ooh. I better run.
-Oh.
Keep up the good work here.
Got it. Will do. Thank you.
Yeah. Are you trying to torpedo our one good source of funding and equipment?
I'm just trying to make this balancing act a little bit easier.
And action.
And Abby.
Great. Great.
Keep it coming.
Perfect.
Okay. Now you sense him.
-And turn!
And cut!
Ahh!
Guys, that was beautiful.
We just got B-roll for the tourism film and a Splattering pick-up
all on the same day.
-Boom. -Boom.
And Bode found this new key that turns you into an animal.
-Did you and your friends use that one? -A couple times, yeah.
You did? What animal were you?
Uh, I think I was an owl.
That's so cool. So, did you just fly around Keyhouse and--
Um, sorry, Ruf.
I'd just rather not talk about it, if that's okay?
That's fine.
So, what do you say we split the meatloaf?
Can I get you something?
Oh my goodness.
-Ellie Whedon? -Hi, Margie.
Oh.
I'm so happy that you're back!
We were all so relieved when we heard the news that you'd been found.
That's very kind. Thank you.
So we will start with two vanilla milkshakes, please.
Yeah. Yeah. I'll be right back with those.
I know this isn't easy for you, Mom,
but I think it's good we came back.
I want you to be happy.
You can be happy here too.
If you try. I think.
Will you try?
Yeah.
Okay.
I've got to remember to call the caterers tomorrow
and update the number of vegetarian meals.
What do you need, bud?
Oh, hey, no, no snacks right now. We're in the dinner zone.
-I just need to-- -Shh!
-I'm listening.
Wait. Are you…
Do you hear something whispering?
I think it's in here.
Okay, uh, let's… Uh, let's…
let's just keep things somewhat orderly while we--
I think it's hidden in here somewhere.
A snowflake.
Where else is there a snowflake?
I think I know where it goes. Here, come with me.
I told you it was magic.
Should we try it?
We should probably wait for Kinsey.
Yeah, okay.
You're right. Though she did say she might not be back until late.
All right, I guess we could try. But only for a second.
Whoa! Mom, look!
Can I help you?
Hey, hey, what are you doing?
Wait a minute. Get your hands off me. You can't just--
-Where is it? -We know you have it. We saw you.
-What… What are you-- -The snow globe.
Mom?
-Did you think we'd go away too?
-Ahh! -Now give us the key.
No, don't try and take it. It'll…
burn you?
I knew it.
I could tell she's not a Locke by blood.
She must have married in.
Can you feel him now?
Yeah.
He'll be waiting for us.
Bode.
Bode!
Hello?
Bode!
Where are you?
Mom! I'm right here! Mom!
Mom!
Bode!
Bode?
Okay, so next week we're profiling the aquarium,
which will also double as Nephropidae's new lair.
Hey, Mom.
Kins, you need to come home now.
Oh, I can't believe I did this. This is all my fault.
No, Mom, you can't blame yourself.
He's my little boy. He could be freezing to death in there.
We're gonna find those women and get back that key.
Do you think they were demons?
They talked about how they'd get burned if they took a key from a Locke?
They were unnaturally strong.
We're gonna need to arm ourselves. Come on.
What if we can't find them?
We'll find them.
We're here, master.
What names do you go by here?
Raiments of flesh.
She's Dorothy, and I'm Ada.
Dorothy and Ada Wheeler.
Dorothy and Ada.
You are dearly needed.
Kinsey, look.
Let me in!
Let me in! I'm freezing!
You can enter. I cannot.
What I want is at the bottom.
What do you see down there?
Just a dead girl!
Check her pockets.
-And there are more of these? -More keys?
-Oh, yes. -Many.
There's one that can turn you into a ghost,
and one that gives you power over any sort of plant,
and another one that can bring a simple drawing to wicked life.
Go get them.
All of them.
Well, being what we are,
we can't just take them from the Lockes.
I don't care how you do it.
Just bring me the keys.
You should go in and rest. I'm gonna keep on looking.
Mom.
-I'm not giving up. -No one's giving up.
Let's just go inside, make a plan.
Maybe Chamberlin saw where the sisters went. We can ask him.
-Good evening to you.
Who's this one? A daughter?
Yeah, this one's a blood Locke.
You can see it in her face.
Just give us the key.
We'll give you your Snow Globe Key so you can rescue your boy,
but you must give us all the other keys.
Nice try, sweetheart,
but to use this,
you'd need to know our names, wouldn't you?
We're not giving you our keys.
We tried to be civilized,
but you leave us no choice.
I'll try and hold them off. Go!
Yeah, I'm not falling for that again.
What the hell is this?
Get me out of here, you skinny, little redhead!
Mom! She's coming for you!
What did you do to my sister?
You can have her back if you give us the Snow Globe Key.
Keep her.
Bring her in here.
Ada? Are you in here too?
Dorothy! Where are you? I can't see you.
-You useless imbecile. -Don't you dare blame--
-Bode.
I don't think I'm gonna want to play in the snow ever again.
Oh, just give it some time.
I'm just grateful you were there to help me through.
Mom. You were a badass.
I kind of was.
Oh, your hair is still wet.
-You guys found a tent out in the woods? -Yeah.
It looked like someone had been staying there for a while.
Do you think it had anything to do with those demon sisters?
I don't know.
-Maybe it was Eden's tent.
Eden's not really a camper.
Plus, we haven't seen her in months.
I heard her parents think she ran away. They've got people searching for her.
And what do you think?
I think if she were still in Matheson, we'd know it.
I thought everything was getting back to normal again.
I know.
We just have to keep looking out for each other. Okay?
I wish that we could talk to Tyler about all this.
Me too, but there would be no point.
He wouldn't understand it.
I know, but I still wanna talk to him.
I wonder where he is.
We're coming up on quittin' time at Cascade County,
Montana's best radio station.
-Here's another oldie, but goodie.
-You're getting pretty good at that.
Been learning from the best.
Yeah, I used to think my superpower might be
flying, or turning invisible, or something.
Turns out it's hammering nails.
And you just distracted me from working 30 seconds for free.
Ah. I guess I owe you, uh,
a dime?
How about a beer?
-Not too sure about your math on that one. -Mmm. I got cheap taste.
Seriously, me and the guys are gonna get a drink. Wanna come?
-Uh… -It's Lutz's.
They're very, shall we say, chill about checking ID.
I… I just wanted to finish this last--
Stop already! It's yabba-dabba-doo time.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'll meet you there.
Where are the guys?
Jeremy's girlfriend is having one of her freak-outs,
and Terrence forgot it was his poker night.
So, I guess it's just you and me.
Thanks. Yeah, I'm… I'm just gonna have one. I'm driving.
What you got there? Something serious?
Uh… No, it's just, uh, my uncle's wedding.
-You gonna go? -No, I don't think so.
It's too soon. Too far. I…
feel like I just left that place.
Okay. Well, I'm sure the show will go on without you.
Yeah.
Unless you have to sing "Ave Maria" or something.
-No voice. -Mmm.
Hey, no pressure.
You gotta listen to your gut. I think our guts are very wise.
Mine told me to leave home at 17 and never look back.
It also told me to stop eating extra spicy buffalo wings.
Both decisions I've never once come to regret.
All that's to say, you must have left home for a reason, though, right?
-Hey there. -Hey.
-How's it going? -Good.
I'm… I'm really good. You?
Yeah, good. Same. Same.
It's been a whole season of personal growth over here.
Jamie has finally realized the chicken nuggets taste the same,
whether they're shaped like dinosaurs or not, so that's huge.
Um, I'm actually calling because…
Uh, well…
As you know, my brother-in-law's wedding is coming up, and…
I was wondering if you might wanna come as my plus-one.
Your plus-one?
It's Saturday,
so it's ridiculously last minute. And if it's at all--
Yeah, no, I would love to. Yeah, I would love to.
You would?
If there's an empty seat next to you,
then I'm in.
What do you think?
It really pulls the whole room together.
Now we just have to put this somewhere safe.
Hey, wait a second.
What?
Well, that was fun.
It was. Yeah. Thanks for inviting me.
Hey, do you wanna keep hanging out?
We could go back to my place and watch a dumb movie or something.
I live, like, over there.
I think I should, um…
I think I should just go home and go to bed.
Okay.
Just know I'm gonna keep asking.
See you in the morning!
Good night.
