♪
-What are you doing here, Dad?
-You shouldn't be here, Bennett.
None of you should.
Griffin:
My grandpa being here,
my dad's acting even
weirder than usual.
I know that you asked Harper
to stay away from Griffin.
I think it makes sense
to keep them apart.
At least for now.
Zoey:
This is where we felt
one of the cold spots.
We're gonna finally
catch that ghost in here.
Zoey:
No one else believes us
about Savannah's ghost.
Topher:
That's what the camera's for?
-Your funeral.
-Young Ben: Savannah's
different, you know?
Of course,
not everyone appreciates that.
Young Jess:
I just think this place
would be a whole lot
nicer if she'd just
-go away.
-Harper [on phone]:
Griffin,
my mom didn't just
hate Savannah.
She acted on it
at the talent show.
And the winner is Ben Campbell!
[light applause]
Harper [on phone]:
I think she might've actually
done something to Savannah.
Harper Marie,
you skipped school today?
-I just got off the phone with
your principal. You're grounded.
-Grounded.
Young Ben:
Last big camp event of
the summer. Should be fun.
-I was thinking of skipping it.
-You have to be there. Trust me.
It'll be a night to remember.
♪
-Meteorologist [on TV]:
highs around 90 degrees.
-Overnight lows in
the 50s initially,
-[banging]
bumping up again
towards 70 degrees.
Looks like a chance
for spotty rain will
continue throughout the day
with a chance of thunderstorms until around 9:00 tonight,
so don't forget your umbrella.
Thanks, Marla.
Today marks the anniversary
of one of Sulphur Springs'
most notorious
unsolved mysteries.
Savannah Dillon
disappeared
30 years ago tonight
following a camp dance at
the historic Tremont Hotel.
Dillon's disappearance
set off a parish-wide search
-involving multiple law
enforcement agencies.

♪
[thunder rumbling]
Man, I've never been in such
a hurry for school to be over.
Me either. I just kept
thinking about Savannah.
What time is it?
It's 3:15. The camp
dance starts at 8:00.
That gives us less than
five hours to go back
and try and save her from
♪
Just say it. My mom.
We don't know that for sure.
Either way, you'll have
to keep an eye on her
-if I can't make it.
-Wait, what? You have to come.
I'll try,
but it's gonna be tough.
I mean,
I am super grounded.
So, now I have to keep
an eye out on your mom,
Savannah, and anyone else who
looks like they're gonna try
-and do something bad to her?
-Possibly.
That stinks. We're better
together, you know?
As a team, I mean.
I know what you mean.
[car honk]
-Harper!
-One second!
-Now!
-[honking]
Griffin!
Griffin:
Wow.
-It's like they're a team now.
-Harper: Remember,
if I can't make it,
you have to go back, okay?
We have to
save Savannah.

[theme song playing]
[footsteps approaching]
Why did I let Kirsten talk me
into hosting this open mic
-at the shop?
-She's a very persuasive woman.
Jess:
This is true.
I'm late.
Oh, before I forget.
♪
What's this?
Your sister is going through
a challenging time right now.
She's rebelling a bit.
You're putting me in charge?
I'm asking you to keep
an eye on her, okay?
She leaves this house for
any reason, you call me.
Consider it done.
And clean up this mess, huh?
[door opens, shuts]
Did I just hear Mom leave?
-You must have
excellent hearing.
-Harper: Did she say
-when she'd be back?
-Topher: No.
Why? Going somewhere?
No.
Okay, let's say I do
have someplace to be.
-What's it gonna cost me?
-What've you got?
Uh 20 bucks,
and my Scream Stream password.
But you have to really
cover for me, okay?
Hm
-That is enticing.
-Just think.
All those super scary zombie
flicks Mom won't let you watch.
-You'll be having
nightmares for weeks.
-Sounds great.
♪
Nice doing business with you.
[birds chirping]
There you are.
What took you so long?
I had to wait for Mom
to leave the kitchen.
Parsley?
Rosemary? I told you.
We need sage to cleanse
the hotel of Savannah's spirit.
I know, but we're out.
So I thought I'd substitute.
-Chipotle mayo?
-That's a spice!
It's a condiment!
Wyatt, this is important.
I saw it on the news!
Tonight's the anniversary
of Savannah's disappearance,
which means she'll probably be
haunting this place extra hard.
So, if we don't have sage,
why don't we try something else?
-Like what?
-Well,
I guess we could always
give her something.
Yes! Like a peace offering!
But, what kind of things
did Savannah like?
I don't know,
but it better be cheap.
I only have
eight dollars and 74 cents.
That's okay.
We'll find some good stuff.

Dude, I don't think I'm ever
gonna get used to that.

-Dude, did you really
just call yourself dude?
-Uh, yeah, I guess I did.
-[laughs]
Don't feel bad.
You don't wanna know what
I said when I felt it.
-[Griffin grunts]
-[bangs]
Hurry up. We don't
have much time.
The dance is gonna start soon.
[creaking]
♪
Griffin:
All the reports say Savannah
went missing after the dance,
but they didn't
say how soon after.
Right, so all we have
to do is stay with her
until we're positive
she's safe in her bunk,
while keeping
an eye on Jess.
Or anyone else
suspicious.
Preferably before my mom gets
home from work and grounds me
-until I'm 28.
-You make it sound so easy.
[laughs] Wait,
If they're both
going to the dance,
-we can't crash
dressed like this.
-Don't worry, we're covered.
-I even brought you something.
-[opens bag]
A tie?
-With vampires on it?
-It's Topher's,
but we won't even need it
if we can somehow
-convince Savannah
to skip the dance.
-Oh! Yeah.
-I had an idea on that.
-[unzips bag]
-A tablet? There's no
Wi-Fi here, remember?
-I know.
Before I left, I downloaded
a video of the local news
from the day
Savannah went missing.
-When she sees it
-You think she'll believe it?
Of course.
How can we fake
an entire news report?
Good point.
But in case she freaks out, be
gentle when you show it to her.
Me? Why do I have to do it?
Because I'll be too
busy watching my mom.
♪
[birds chirping]
[Jess sighs]
If you're looking for
Savannah, she's not here.
Uh, no, actually.
I was passing by
and thought I'd say hey.
Why would you do that?
We're not friends.
I know. I just
wanted to say, uh
That's a pretty dress.
Big dance tonight, huh?
-Highlight of the summer.
-You look great.
Although
Although?
-Nothing. Just your makeup.
-What about it?
Tiny suggestion.

-It's called Berry Bliss.
Something tells me
it'll look amazing on you.
♪
-Never heard of it.
-It's new.
Like, really new. [laughs]
I just figured with your
complexion and that dress,
it would go amazing.
-[laughs] Wow!
-[caps lipstick]
Where'd you get this?
-My mom, actually.
-I love it.
Hey, Hermione, um
do you wanna come to
the dance with me tonight?
Yeah! Sure! Uh,
I think I even have
something to wear.
But, why me?
Like you said,
we're not friends.
Well
we're not friends yet.
Besides, I can always use
a partner in crime.
♪
[clears throat]
Mom. You're home early.
Yeah. Kirsten
offered to close up.
Where's your sister?
In her room, asleep.
Guess all that misbehavior
kinda wore her out.
Hm, I see.
Well, maybe I'll just
pop in and say goodnight.
Oh. Okay.
-Good night.

while ago by the springs,
and I followed you here.

Can you play Dragon Blaster?

Just watch it, okay?

Oh no.
No, no, no, no.

That's okay. They sell
batteries at the gift shop.
What kind does it take?
Double A?
-D?
-It's not that kind
of battery, okay?
Harry, relax.
It's just a toy.
It's not like someone just died.
Well, not yet, anyway.

Yep. Good as new.

try to open it. Ever.

Griff's getting pretty
good on that guitar, huh?
Yeah, he really is.
But I'm worried
about him, Ben.
We pulled him away from
all of his friends,
and now that he has a new one
We're telling him he
can't see her anymore.
-Think we should go talk to him?

I'd hate to interrupt his jam.

getting pretty good.

Savannah,
there you are.
Hey, Harry.
The dance is about to start.
You're coming, right?
No, I don't think so.
Exactly!
Camp dances
are pretty stupid.
Is this about that
thing that Jess said?
You know she was kidding, right?
-What'd she say?
-It was so dramatic.
She was talking about the dance.
"It'll be a night to
remember." [laughs]
Young Ben:
Hey, that sounds just like her.
Please come.
Just for a little while.

Fine. But only
for a little bit.
Later, Harry.
-Take me with you!
-To the dance?
Yeah!
But you just said
it was stupid.
And it is.
But, the thing is, I'm
kind of an awesome
dancer.
And you're looking for some
place to show off your moves.
Uh-huh.

What is she doing here?
And [scoffs]
what is she wearing?
Listen, Jess,
you're not planning on
doing anything tonight, are you?

Anything weird?
You're the one
being weird, Hermione.
-Don't make me
regret bringing you.
-Sorry.

-So, um, you gonna
ask Ben to dance?
Please. I'd never ask a guy to
dance this early in the night.
Trust me.
When I'm ready for us
to dance, we'll dance.
Uh, okay.
[music continues]
Griffin, what is
Savannah doing here?
Didn't you show
her the report?
Yeah, I tried,
but the battery was dead.
You forgot to
charge the tablet?
No, I swear!
Something must've happened when
it went through the portal.
-The jolt.
-Yeah. There's more.
Jess made some creepy
comment to Savannah
about how tonight's gonna
be a night to remember.
Makes sense.
She practically told me
she was planning
to do something to her.
She's got something
in this bag.
-Like what?
-I don't know.
She didn't show me. Anyway,
I better get back to her.
Anything else I should know?
Young Ben:
Hey, Harry! There he is!
Let's see those moves.
Yeah. Apparently,
I'm an amazing dancer.
Come on!
Let's see it!

Maybe later.

a song just for you.

Not yet anyway.
Too bad.
