Tabitha Hutter/Season 1

### The Wraith

Detective Tabitha Hutter has been assigned to the Sharon and Haley Smith case following their disappearance. She stops by the McQueen house for questioning; specifically Vic McQueen, who discovered Sharon's body.

Inside, Detective Hutter asks how Vic found the body. Vic claims she was riding home on her dirt bike when she saw a ton of crows pecking around in the dirt. Hutter is skeptical. Vic goes on to say she was coming from Bing Partridge’s house, who she accused of committing the murder. Detective Hutter asks Vic if she saw Bing kill Sharon or dispose of the body, which Vic didn’t. But Vic explains that Bing said he made Sharon clean, before she escaped his house. Detective Hutter is having a hard time connecting Vic’s story. She’s certain that Vic at the very least isn’t telling her everything.

Detective Hutter questions Bing after he turns himself in. He explains that he works for Massachusetts Custodial and Security Services. They send him to two places. He did his shift at SoChemPharm, and then he headed to William White Memorial High School. Afterward, he headed home, where he watched his favorite show "Monster Trucks." Both of Bing’s supervisors can confirm this, as well as Vic, who stopped by to return a comic book. Hutter suggests that maybe Vic and Bing are more than friends, but he insists they aren’t. Detective Hutter then asks about the youth facility he was sent to. Those records are sealed, Bing replies. He was around Vic’s age when he was sentenced. Hutter asks if his crime was sexual in nature, but Bing simply repeats his previous alibi rather than answering.

Detective Hutter arrives at the hospital to speak with Vic after Maggie Leigh got ran down by a car, though Vic doesn’t wish to talk to her given that Hutter allowed Bing to walk. Hutter explains that Vic didn’t give her enough information to hold him. She asks if Bing was Vic’s boyfriend and if she was with him when he abducted Sharon. Hutter doesn’t know what to think given that Vic has left so many details from her story. Detective Hutter asks Vic who was driving the car that hit Maggie. Vic tells her the truth; no one was driving. It’s a black 1938 Rolls-Royce Wraith with a vanity license plate NOS4A2, Vic describes. Vic watched it run down Maggie on its own. However, the Wraith belongs to Charlie Manx. He uses it to abduct kids and take them to a dark place in his imagination called Christmasland. Vic also explains the Shorter Way and it’s inner workings, such as how it helps her find lost things.

Given her statement, Detective Hutter wants Vic to sign a release form for conditional voluntary commitment into the hospital.

### Sleigh House

Maggie calls the police and reports the attack. She claims that Bing has both Vic and Craig. Detective Hutter arrives on scene and asks Maggie when was the last time she spoke to Vic. Maggie reveals they were last in contact that morning when they had breakfast. Detective Hutter questions what lead Maggie to Bing’s house. She questioned Vic the day of Maggie’s accident, and she told Hutter a driver-less car ran her down. Maggie sticks to her story of Bing taking Vic, which Hutter doesn’t doubt, but she knows there’s more to the story than what they’re telling her.

Inside a chest in Bing’s basement, Detective Hutter finds a bloody nail gun. She bags it as evidence. She then puts out an APB for Bing for suspicion of murder and kidnapping. Bing drives past his house to see police cars all over the area.

Maggie informs Hutter that Bing is at the SoChemPharm plant. Hutter had her guys check it high and low, but he wasn’t there. Not then, Maggie explains, but he is now. Maggie reveals that she’s a Medium, and her Scrabble Bag tipped her off. Her Tiles told her where to find Bing. Hutter asked for the truth, and the truth is that there are forces at work in the world. There are people in the world with abilities way beyond Hutter’s comprehension. Maggie’s one of them. Vic’s another. As well as Manx, who has Vic and Craig. And she wasn’t lying when she said Maggie was hit by a driver-less car. Maggie pleads with Hutter to believe her as Bing may know where they are.

Hutter and her fellow officers pull up to SoChemPharm to find Hal Schnell duct taped to the steering wheel of Bing’s car with a penis drawn on his forehead.

### Gunbarrel

Detective Hutter wakes Maggie as she sleeps on a couch in the precinct. She apologizes for not being faster and catching Bing at SoChemPharm. Hutter advises Maggie to go home. She promises to call Maggie should there be any developments. Maggie puts her ability on display for Hutter, asking her Scrabble Bag when Vic will call, reaching into her Bag, shoulder deep and pulling out Tiles that read "SOON." Hutter asks to see the Tiles, but Maggie advises against it. She stutters as she explains that it’s dangerous. Maggie’s abilities work by tearing the fabric between the real world and the world of thought. Maggie then gets a call from Vic, who informs her that she’s in Colorado and her Bridge is gone.

Detective Hutter stops by Maggie’s hotel room to inform her that Vic is safe, and Manx is in custody. However, Hutter hasn’t had any luck in finding Bing. She’s hoping that Maggie will ask her Scrabble Tiles where Bing is. Hutter reveals that she was born three months premature with a collapsed lung. It didn’t look like she would make it. So, Hutter’s mother brought her home to her grandfather. He’s a Santero in Mattapan. Hutter’s mother swears that he saved her life with offering to the Orishas. Hutter has never been a religious woman. Until yesterday, she thought that story was just superstitious family lore. She admits that there may be forces in the world beyond their comprehension. However, as Maggie explains, there’s a cost to messing with these forces. Which Hutter acknowledges, but she has to stop Bing and needs Maggie’s help to do so. Maggie reluctantly grabs her Scrabble Bag and asks where to find Bing. The Tiles spell out "HOUSE OF SLEEP TWO."
