== Summary ==
Sammie asks to meet up with her mom at her mom's house. Sammie tells Helena that she found out they can reverse the curse that was placed on Gideon, but they need someone who can read Jadis' spellbook to do it. She asks if Helena knows any witches that could help them, but Helena discourages her from asking a witch for help. Helena offers to keep an eye out for some sort of artifact or object that might be able to help them and then let her know. 
Sammie then changes topics and tells Helena that she saw him with her dad, Tony. Helena says it wasn't anything, she just ran into him at a grocery store. Sammie says that she can't go out with him again, she doesn't know what Tony did to her. Helena apologizes but says that people change and they're just catching up. Sammie lets it go for now and Helena says she'll be in touch if she finds anything. 
Bjorn checks in on everyone at the Fort. Stanley is still over the moon to have Gideon back, even as a fish boy. Ben is focused on his studies, preparing to graduate. Salem has more energy than ever, now back to being a normal kid. Ben has also been trying to teach Gideon video games. Bjorn also begins to train the members of the Blackout Society. He starts by teaching the very basics of magic, monsters, and where they come from. The trainees are curious and ask questions, but not many Bjorn can answer. He heavily cautions them against entering or approaching Rifts and to call him if they ever see one. The younger members of this group of the Blackout Society decide to call themselves "the Amnesianauts." 
Stanley and Henry are training in the courtyard. The two are wielding wooden practice swords. Stanley starts out stronger, having size and strength on his side, but Henry squeezes out a win over him with his speed advantage. Miguel is keeping track of points on the sideline and gives it to Henry over Stanley by a single point. Stanley sits heavily to drink some water. Henry asks if he's doing alright and Stanley brushes it off, saying he's just getting old. He tells Henry that he's glad he's here, that there's been a Marlowe in Fort Lagarto for a very long time and he hopes Henry will stay there to keep it that way. He pulls Gideon into a headlock and ruffles his hair and tells him he'll be there too. Henry seems a bit taken aback that Stanley wants him to take the mantle someday. Gideon says that he'll be there too and Henry remarks he can always use a side kick. Henry and Gideon get into a wrestling match, which Gideon firmly wins and Henry takes back his sidekick comment. Gideon helps Henry to his feet and the two walk off discussing what their team name will be when they become partners. 
When the two are out of ear shot, Miguel asks when Stanley is going to tell Henry about his MS diagnosis. Stanley just shrugs. Miguel says that Henry deserves to know and Stanley nods. 
Sammie visits the Fort later to have a conversation with Henry. They walk outside to have a conversation away from any prying ears. Sammie talks to Henry about their run in with former Chief Hanson. Sammie tells Henry that while he was still dealing with the aftermath of losing River, the rest of them had a conversation about what to tell Chief Hanson about his daughter's death. She wants to know what Henry thinks now, if River's dad deserves to know the truth. Henry says that he deserves to know something, but he's not sure he'll react well to the truth. Sammie apologizes but insists that he deserves to know. She catches Henry up to speed on what everyone discussed in the conversation without him to give Henry the full context. Henry asks Sammie to give him some time to think about it and Sammie thanks him for at least considering it. 
Bjorn has a vision. After the strange dream the night before, he wakes up to start his morning routine and while washing up he looks into the mirror. His vision begins to blur and he sees a hooded figure trying to get into a padlocked door. A sign near the door says the room is the morgue. The hooded figure turns and tells Bjorn to stop watching them and then Bjorn is forced out of the vision. He thought the strange dream the night before was just that, a dream, but this one feels different - he was awake for this one. He gets out his phone and texts the group that something weird just happened to him and they need to meet at the Fort to talk about it.
