## Biography

### Investigating the fire

Kristin and Officer Jang arrive at the hospital as part of a joint task force investigating the wildfires. They're looking for anyone that was injured on the freeway, especially the kids on the school bus. From the nurse they get the name Everett Lang, but he flees the hospital before they can question him. So she calls his phone, needing his help figuring out who's responsible for the death of several people. She has confirmed that the fire was caused by arson, and she's certain the arsonist is a teenager. In fact, it's quite possible the culprit was on the bus with him, watching the fire from the windows.

Kristin pays Everett a home visit, and his is clearly nervous, so much so that he's reluctant to shake her hand. He reveals that he left the hospital to meet with a friend. Kristin reminds Everett that everyone on his bus is a suspect because arsonists liked to watch the fire they set. However, the behavior of fire setting is more often a mental health issue. Most arsonists set their first fire before the age of 18. Kristin doesn't necessarily know if Everett's the arsonist, but it's possible he knows who is, asking him about his classmates. This leads her to Blake, who she questions as well. After questioning the two of them earlier in the day, she picks them both up at the hospital for further questioning.

Kristin brings Everett, Blake, Harlan, and Luna in for questioning, but starts with Everett. She reveals that Connor is missing and asks if he had anything to do with the fire, but Everett insists he didn't. Ramsey then asks why Everett and his friends were close to the point of origin of the fire. Everett claims they were smoking, though Ramsey is skeptical. Everett requests to call his parents and then a lawyer. Ramsey suspects that he struggles from anxiety. It used to hit her the hardest before she'd go to sleep. It's a threat response, she explains. Their brain goes into a hypervigilance before they go to sleep because back when they were living in caves, sleep was when they were most vulnerable and likely to be eaten by a saber-toothed tiger. Unfortunately, she doesn't get a chance to interview the others, as Garrett arrives and takes the kids home. When Officer Miller questions why they let the kids go, Kristin reveals that she thinks they're innocent. She also warns him against touching any of the kids again.

Kristin is hopeful that Austin saw something that will assist in her investigation. However, all he recalls is seeing a 7ft tall monster killing people on the highway and how it even grabbed him. She directs his attention to her board of werewolf drawings, revealing that other witnesses have described similar encounters, though she suspects that they all imagined this beast to cope with the traumatizing event. Ramsey heads over to the hospital, where Connor was last seen. While investigating the scene, she is startled by a dying ram with claw marks in its torso. To Kristin's surprise, Garrett stops by to offer his help, revealing that he knows she's trying to find a second incendiary device, given that there was almost certainly a second origin point. Ramsey then assists Jang with searching for Officer Miller, who has gone missing. She shines a light into the woods and finds a large blood splatter on a tree not far from his abandoned car.

### Helping the werewolf

Kristin, Garrett, and Officer Jang enter the robotics class at Gray Lakes High School, where she reveals that the incendiary device was made with parts from the 3D printer at the school. As class begins, she turns her attention to Cyrus and questions him about his father, who died in the wildfire 17 years ago. Kristin, Garrett, and Jang then make their way to the construction site, where she questions Garrett about how he found the twins. He found his kids in the fire, whereas Kristen lost her son to a fire. She then shows Garrett satellite photos taken one hour after the fires were started, at which point Garrett concludes the arsonist set both fires from the construction site using drones they built in robotic classes at the school. Kristin then enters the elevator room, where she and the security guard discovery a shaft full of dead bodies. When the guard asks who put them down there, she replies a werewolf is responsible and kills the guard.

Kristin arrives at Tia Patterson's house in search of Cyrus and finds him in the woods with Harlan, saving them both from a close encounter with the werewolf. She fires off several warning shots but explains that she has no intentions to hurt him. In fact, she wants to help, claiming that she can bring him back and help him control it. The werewolf replies in a distorted voice: "Help me." But he then flees after Jang and the other officers arrive. Kristin then heads back to Garrett's, where they discuss the werewolf, which she feigns ignorance about and claims is just another dumb animal.

While Kristin doesn't suspect Harlan is the arsonist, she still requests that Garrett bring him down for questioning. In the meantime, she returns his silver bullet casing from the kickback. Kristin then makes her way to the motel where the Navarros are staying after Phoebe's body is found in the bathroom, leading her to bring Blake in for questioning. Given recent events, she requests Garrett's help in her investigation, suspecting that the murder and fires are connected. As they make their way through the construction site, Kristin reveals that her son died with his father, who was trying to protect him. His father wasn't a perfect man, and seeing Garrett with his kids makes Kristin realizes that her son could've used a father like him. The two of them then discover the shaft the werewolf has been hiding its victims, which Garrett asks her not to report in order to protect his kids. He asks Kristin to trust him and says he will help her find the person responsible. She then confronts him about the silver bullets and asks him if it was a person who did this. Garrett replies, "Yes and no."

### Finding Baron

Kristin instructs for Garrett to bring the twins down to the station, where she uses a white noise machine to eavesdrop on Harlan's conversation with Cyrus. Unfortunately, not long after, she gets word that the bodies of the werewolf's victims were discovered, meaning the FBI would soon be in town to take over. That said, Kristin urges Garrett to tell her the truth about everything he knows. Unbeknownst to Garrett, she has already been spying on him and the twins for some time, frequently visiting the house and going room to room as they sleep. After paying Blake a visit and revealing that she knows about them, Kristin reconvenes with Garrett to find Baron, who was taken by Malcolm and used as bait to lure Kristin to Fire Department 45, where she and Malcolm get into a fight, she reveals her true identity to Garrett, and then proposes he becomes a werewolf and join her.
