## Episode Summary

The episode starts with Ben boarding up the wall leading to the secret room. The TV plays in the background. The news anchor announces that it is the 30th anniversary of Savannah's disappearance. Ben quickly shuts off the TV, and Zoey, who was watching from behind a pillar, quickly scurries away. Then the camera cuts to Griffin and Harper leaving school. They acknowledge that they only have 5 hours to get ready for the Camp Dance and save Savannah. Jess and Sarah roll up to the school to pick them up.

Topher sits at the table, reading comics. Jess tells him that she has to go host an "open mic" at the Café and gives Topher $20 to keep an eye out on Harper. She leaves, and Harper comes into the dining room, bribing Topher with $20 and her "Scream Stream" password. Harper leaves the room, and he holds the money up to the sky, snickering. Wyatt carries a crate of jars into Zoey's room. She tells him that they need sage to cleanse the hotel of Savannah's spirit. Wyatt tells her that they don't have anymore, so he brings up the idea of a peace offering.

Griffin goes through the portal, feeling a jolt. He then meets up with Harper, and they walk to the camp. She gives him one of Topher's zombie neckties. They make a plan to convince Savannah not to go to the dance by showing her a news report from the future of her disappearance. Then, Harper goes into Jess's cabin. She gives her one of her mom's lipsticks, and Jess asks her if she could come to the dance with her. Jess ominously grabs a small bag from the top bunk and puts it in her purse.

Topher is typing on his computer when his mom comes upstairs. She checks on Harper, and she thought she was sleeping, but it was a Bluetooth speaker with snoring sounds under her blanket. Wyatt and Zoey put the peace offerings between them, money, cheese, and a picture of 1990's heartthrob, John Stamos.

Griffin climbs up the ladder to Savannah's treehouse. He tries to show her the news report, but the battery had died. Sarah walks up to Ben and tells him that they've been too harsh on Griffin, and they should talk to him. However, they don't go since they think Griffin's in his room practicing when it is a recording.

Young Ben climbs into the treehouse and persuades Savannah to come to the dance. Griffin lies that he's a dancer and that they should take him. They go to the dance. He tells Harper that the battery was dead, and she tells him about the little bag that Jess had. Then Ben and Savannah ask Griffin if he can dance, which he does.

Zoey wakes up Wyatt. They are disappointed that Savannah never came, and the twins head back to sleep. Jess takes the little bag out of her purse and opens it up. It was a cassette tape with her favorite song on it. She goes to dance with Ben before Savannah interferes. Jess storms off, and Griffin and Harper theorize that she might do something to Savannah. To keep an eye on her, they briefly dance next to Savannah and Ben. Jess comes in and accuses Harper of sabotaging her plan. A shadowy figure peers into the windows of the Tremont, directly at Savannah.
