## Summary

Bjorn carries Oliver over to his car, deciding to take him to the hotel they found reservations for in his email. He calls Stanley to let him know that he's not sure if the mind wipe was successful or not and that he'd like to be there when Oliver wakes up to assess whether he remembers or not. He asks for Stanley and Miguel to meet them at the hotel so that they can have some magical back up to make sure that his mind is wiped. Sammie asks Bjorn if he mind wipes people often and he says he does. Henry feels like Bjorn is babbling to Sammie about things that he shouldn't, but Bjorn assures Henry that it's fine - that Sammie has been with them long enough that he trusts her with that information.

Bjorn comes up with the plan to dump Oliver outside of a bar near his hotel, as if he'd passed out after a late night of drinking, and they are the ones to stumble upon him in the alleyway. Stanley and Miguel meet them there. Bjorn informs Miguel he'd like him to wipe Oliver's memory so that he doesn't remember ever meeting them in the first place, that he had an uneventful morning following leads and then fell asleep in the hotel lobby, which is where they decide to leave him. Bjorn keeps Oliver's camera, leaving it in his car to later go through and delete the images from the memory card and internal memory.

Bjorn, Henry, Sammie, Stanley, and Miguel discuss what they've discovered about the wendigo. They know that silver will hurt it and that any other wounds will regenerate. Miguel says that it has a nest and that it'll return there to eat and rest if it's wounded. They ask Miguel about the silver ammunition and he says it'll be ready by tonight. They decide that they need to do some research about how to eliminate the wendigo for good before going out again.

During Henry's research, he decides to dig into Oliver's personal email a bit more. He's able to hack in and find that Oliver has been looking for a wendigo for a while. He received information from MonsterHunter69 that there was a wendigo in Thornvale, which is why he's here. Oliver hasn't researched much on how to kill the monster, but Henry finds something in his research that says there is a legend that shattering its heart might kill it.

Sammie goes home, changes clothes, and brings pizza back to the Fort for them. She does her own research. All she finds is that they are supposed to cut the wendigo's heart up into pieces and bury it in a silver box. While researching, Henry teases Sammie about liking Oliver. Sammie says she doesn't, they were just talking about tea. Bjorn finds out from H.U.N.T.E.R. that there are rumors that shattering its heart will kill it, that it has great hearing, immense strength, and that it has some kind of scream that will be very harmful to anyone who hears it.

While at the Fort, Bjorn gets a call from Captain Holland that there's been another attack. A 4-year-old boy is missing and his mother is dead. They get their silver ammunition from Miguel and let Miguel know they are in need of a silver box. He gets to work on making the box and the three head out to try and find the boy.
