## Summary

Henry points Oliver out to Bjorn and Sammie. Bjorn says they'll deal with him later and hopes they don't run into him. They walk up to a boat and Bjorn flashes his badge and the crew welcome them aboard to help. Bjorn asks the man who appears to be the captain if they can head directly to Christmas Tree Island. The captain says they'll head out that way eventually but are going to look at some other islands first. Bjorn tells him they have one of the missing men's float plans and that the last place he was at is Christmas Tree Island. The captain goes to grab his radio to tell the entire search party to head that way. Bjorn knocks the radio out of his hand.

The captain asks him what he's doing and Bjorn just reaches out a hand to mind wipe him. As he does so, he shouts the word for the spell at Sammie so she can do it for the other man on board. The other man advances toward them, demanding to know what they did to his friend. Henry tries to appeal to him by saying they're just trying to keep them safe. Sammie runs in to try and mind wipe him, but the magic goes wrong. The man doesn't pass out, he drops to his knees, disoriented. He stands up and collapses, stuck in a loop of remembering and forgetting. He jumps off the boat. Bjorn tells Henry to take control of the boat and he jumps overboard to grab him.

Bjorn swims over to the man, grabs him, and uses another mind wipe spell on him. The man goes limp. Bjorn gets him back to the boat as Henry keeps it going in the right direction. They both get back on deck and Bjorn tells Sammie they're going to have to work on the mind wipe spell. They put ear plugs in the men's ears even though they're unconscious just to be safe.

Henry calls Stanley and Miguel to get an update on their research. They tell Henry that sirens don't travel by themselves, they travel in a group. They discuss what to do about dealing with multiple sirens while not hurting any of the captured men they may have under their thrall. Bjorn suggests simply flying over the men. Sammie reminds him that's assuming the fight is going to happen above water. Bjorn replies that the sirens have to keep the men alive somehow.

Bjorn takes control of the ship back and heads toward Christmas Tree Island. He notices the racing boat, "The Pride," they saw Oliver on earlier is ahead of them and going the same direction they are. Bjorn grabs the radio and calls up to them, asking which island they're going to and if they can take Oliver of of their hands. The captain of the Pride tells them they are going to Christmas Tree Island and they should head to Rainbow Island. Bjorn then tells the captain that Oliver is a fugitive and he's a member of the FBI and they need to stop their ship so that they can collect him. The captain begrudgingly agrees.

Bjorn pulls up the SeanJohn next to the Pride. The captain immediately asks where Sean and John are. Bjorn gives an excuse that they are below deck because they got drunk and passed out. The captain asks if they can see them and Bjorn hesitates before agreeing. The captain and one of his crew members board the SeanJohn and head below deck. Sammie suggests to Bjorn that he should ask the Pride to take Sean and John back to the island for medical attention to get them off their trail. Bjorn agrees and asks if she can get Oliver while he talks to them.

Sammie steps across onto the Pride. She doesn't see Oliver on deck so she steps below. As soon as she steps down below deck, Oliver seems to recognize her, asking if she's Samantha Overbrook. Sammie asks how he knows her name and he asks the other crewmate below deck if he can have a moment along with Sammie. The crewmate leaves and Sammie asks Oliver if he'll come with her to their ship. Oliver is more than happy to oblige. Sammie walks behind Oliver, keeping a hand on his shoulder, and guides him over to the SeanJohn.

Bjorn is trying to convince the captain and crewmate of the Pride that they didn't do anything suspicious with Sean and John. They're not convinced. They take Sean and John over to the Pride. As they do, the captain leans over and whispers in Oliver's ear. Oliver gets suddenly nervous and tells Sammie they'll have to catch up another time and stays on the Pride. The captain of the Pride confronts Bjorn, saying they had just seen these men 5 minutes before they left shore and they were completely fine, plus Sean hasn't had a drop of alcohol in 20 years. He tells Bjorn they're going to take Sean and John to the police when they get back and if he's really a fed, he can meet them there. They insist that they don't follow them to Christmas Tree Island and they go to Rainbow Island instead. Bjorn agrees to get them off their back. Sammie steps back onto the SeanJohn without Oliver.

Once there is distance between the boats, Bjorn suggests they call Stanley and have three dragon knights wipe everyone's memory on board. They can't let the men get away knowing what they know.

Sammie senses something. She looks around with her third eye and sees something in the distance. There's a green dot in the distance. It starts to grow bigger and bigger until it grows into a haze. She watches as the green haze washes over the Pride and all the men jump off into the water. She doesn't have time to reach before the green energy washes over their boat. She hears a song wash over her.
