## Plot

In Colony House, the residents hang decorations in preparation for a party, while Ellis looks around. Upstairs, Julie finds it odd that they are celebrating the day Fatima got stuck in the Town. Fatima, who is looking for something under her bed, says that she is looking at it the wrong way, and that they are actually celebrating survival, cheekily adding that it’s nice to have a party once in a while. Fatima then finds a sweater, which she keeps from Trudy, who loves it. An admirative Julie tells Fatima that she makes the Town seem almost normal, and that she is special. Fatima is touched, but says that they are all special, even Trudy. Ellis arrives and asks if they want to pregame, both decline, and Fatima tells him to go easy. Ellis teases them both and leaves calling for Victor. Julie asks Fatima if Ellis is alright, and she explains that nights like this are difficult for him, because it makes him remember the people who didn’t make it. Fatima then gives Julie a dress for the party.

Downstairs, Ellis tells an uninterested Victor that he of all people should get drunk, considering how long he has been trapped in the Town. Victor asks to be left alone before Donna arrives. Ellis offers her a shot before leaving. Victor informs Donna that there aren’t any peaches in the pantry. Donna tells him that they are completely out. Victor says that this is the first time they’ve ever run out of peaches, and Donna apologizes. Out on the porch, Kevin leaves a bouquet of flowers on the porch, before someone tells him to get inside before dark.

In Town, Boyd walks through the streets ringing the bell telling people to get inside. In her home, Tabitha reads to Ethan from the Cromenockle, and after noticing that Ethan has fallen asleep, begins closing the curtains. In the Liu home, Kenny finds Jade squirreled away in his room repeatedly drawing the mysterious symbol he saw in his hallucination. Kenny admonishes Jade for drawing in his book. Jade angrily shouts that he was out of paper and asks Kenny if he wants him to draw on the walls like a psychopath.  Meanwhile Father Khatri waits on the porch of the Sheriff’s Office for Boyd. When he returns, Khatri tells Boyd they need to talk in private urgently. Inside, Khatri notices that Boyd is preparing to leave, and remarks that they have even more to talk about.

Back at the Matthews, Jim sketches plans for a radio tower, and Tabitha informs him that Ethan is passed out. Jim jokes that she violated numerous child labor laws by having him dig in the basement, but Tabitha assures him that their son enjoyed it. Tabitha reveals that she gets nervous whenever he is out of her sight, and Jim admits he does as well, but points out that all the windows are nailed shut and doors locked, so it would be impossible for him to let the Creatures inside. Tabitha then admits she’s also worried about Julie, but Jim assures her that Donna will take good care of her. Tabitha asks Jim how the radio tower is going, and Jim responds that if he can convince Boyd to let him use all their building materials, drain all their batteries and get Donna to allow them to use Colony House’s high ground, it will be enough for everyone to hate him when it fails. Tabitha tells him not to doubt himself and reminds him that he got a signal. Jim corrects her and says it was static, but she assures him that it’s something, and kisses him. The two then joke about the hole in the basement before Tabitha leaves to continue digging.

At Colony House, the party is in full swing while Ellis drunkenly stumbles through the crowd. Fatima tells him to slow down but he insists that he is fine. Donna then gives a heartfelt speech praising Fatima and gifts her a dreamcatcher. Everyone then raises a glass to Fatima. Afterwards, Stacey kisses Fatima, and Julie awkwardly stares.

At the Sheriff’s Office, Boyd concludes explaining to Khatri his plan to go out into the forest in search of a way out. Khatri then reveals the bag that he buried the day he arrived in Town and has Boyd look through the contents. Boyd gets frustrated and asks what is going on. Khatri says they have never discussed who they were before they arrived in Town. Khatri explains that there was a young, quiet and sensitive boy with very strict parents in his congregation. One day, the boy asked Khatri if he could stay for a while, but Khatri, not wanting the parents to worry, gave the boy a candy bar and sent him on his way. Later, Khatri went by the house to check on him and the mother came rushing out of the house hysterical. Khatri recalls the smell of alcohol while the father  was yelling at the dead body of his son. Khatri becomes distressed as he remembers the candy bar in the boy’s pocket, and how the father insisted that the boy would be fine. Khatri continues to say that he began beating the boy’s father. Khatri excoriates himself for failing to help the boy, and says that he contemplated suicide after drinking the bottle of alcohol in the bag, but heard the voice of God, who told him to return to the car, for there was another path to follow. That path led him to the Town. Boyd asks the priest why he is telling him all of this, and Khatri says it’s because he has Sara tied up in the basement of the Church. Khatri tries to explain that he knows there is a reason they are all trapped in Town but Boyd aims his gun at him. Boyd tells a shocked Khatri to tell him that he is joking. Boyd angrily recalls how Khatri insisted that Frank Pratt go in the Box, but Khatri tells him that Sara may be the way they go home, and Boyd demands that he explain.

In Colony House, Kevin sneaks away from the festivities to see the Creature he has been talking to, who he calls “Jasmine.” “Jasmine” tells him that she only came to say goodbye, distressing Kevin. She asks him why he won’t let her inside, and he says he can’t but begs her to stay and talk to him. She tells him that she can’t keep coming to see him knowing that she will never feel him, and that he is frightened and disgusted by her. She adds that she is just as lonely as he is, and it was not her choice to be as she is. As she turns to leave, Kevin tells her to wait, and says there’s a party downstairs, but she is the only one he can really talk to. He asks her to promise that only she will come in, and she says that once they shut the window none of the other Creatures will enter. Kevin then retrieves a crowbar and begins removing the nails keeping the window shut.

Downstairs, a drunk Dale talks to Stacey about the number of dimensions there are, and the differences in theories. Stacey asks if they are in another dimension, and Dale answers that they are in a pocket universe. Ellis rudely tells him that no one cares and to shut up. Ellis begins to pick a fight but Fatima defuses it. However, Dale tells her to get Ellis upstairs before he starts shooting up the place. But Fatima and Donna restrain him before he can hit Dale. Fatima asks Ellis if he is ok, and he apologizes and goes to lie down in his room, telling her to stay and celebrate her night. After he leaves, Dale calls Ellis an animal, adding “like mother like son,” and Donna punches him in the face. Upstairs, Kevin opens the window and Jasmine hops inside, shutting the window behind her. The two embrace and begin kissing. However, Jasmine scratches him with her claws and bites his tongue off before attacking him further.

In the Lius’ home, Kenny informs Jade that dinner is ready. Jade refuses to come down, and Kenny begins to argue with him when Tian-Chen arrives and begins yelling at him in Cantonese, prompting Jade to relent.

In Colony House, Fatima finds Trudy sitting by herself and asks what’s wrong. Trudy says she knows Fatima does not like her, which Fatima denies. Trudy remarks that it’s a nice party, and Fatima tells her that she will also get one, but Trudy ominously says she doesn’t think she will. Fatima tells her to take off her shirt, surprising her. Fatima admits that Trudy drives her crazy sometimes, but she is not alone, lending her the sweater Trudy likes, delighting her. Fatima tells her to think of it as an early anniversary present. Trudy is touched by the gift, and leaves to find a gift for Fatima. Julie finds Fatima and compliments her for giving Trudy the sweater. Julie then awkwardly asked what the deal is with Fatima kissing Stacey but being with Ellis. Fatima explains that Ellis is her boyfriend, but was just fooling around with Stacey. A nervous Julie asks if she could kiss Fatima, surprising her. Julie then runs away before Fatima can answer.

Boyd finds Khatri’s explanation of the voices Sara hears difficult to believe, but Khatri pulls out the drawing she made of the chocolate bar logo. Boyd tries to rationalize it, but Khatri insists that there is no way she could have known that story. Boyd asks if he thinks whatever is talking to Sara is trying to help them, pointing out that it ordered her to kill Bing-Qian and Ethan Matthews. Khatri says that it is part of the fabric of this place, and Sara’s connection makes her valuable in ways they do not yet understand. Khatri tells Boyd that it is not a coincidence that Boyd is about to go on his journey at the same time as this connection is revealed. Khatri suggests that he and Sara accompany Boyd on his journey and use her connection to their advantage.

In the Matthews’ house, Tabitha continues digging in the basement. Jim arrives and tells her that they’ll soon need a taller ladder, before descending to help his wife. Tabitha says she is fine, and Jim responds that none of them are really fine before massaging Tabitha’s shoulders. He offers to take over digging while she goes to rest with Ethan. As Jim continues massaging her, the two begin to kiss.

Back at Colony House, Jasmine washes the blood off her hands and face after killing Kevin before opening the window for the other Creatures. Meanwhile Victor is sorting through his belongings when Julie arrives at his door and asks to come in. Victor reluctantly lets her after she says that she needs to be alone and is having a bad night. Julie asks if he is going somewhere because it looks like he is packing up, and he says it’s hard to explain. She then asks about the graves, which he does not want to talk about. Julie then begins asking him questions about the Town.

Jade continues to stare at the journal with the symbols during dinner with the Lius before realizing that two of the pages are stuck together. He is able to pry them apart, and a polaroid photo falls out of the book. The picture is of a smiling man holding the journal in front of the diner. As the three look at it, Tian-Chen points out that a young victor is in the corner of the picture, identifiable by his signature lunchbox, shocking Jade and Kenny.

Meanwhile, Trudy prepares to give Meredith (her pillow/security blanket) to Fatima. Overhearing laughter, she goes into a nearby room but the door is shut behind her. Surrounded by three of the Creatures, she begins panicking, and Jasmine calls her by name, explaining that they know all their names. The Creatures then begin mauling Trudy. Downstairs, Dale complains about the lack of respect that he is shown but gets distracted by blood dripping onto him. He then looks up and sees the Smiley Creature staring down at him, covered in blood. Stacey screams, and other residents begin to panic. Someone rings the alarm, waking Ellis up while chaos ensues. Fatima runs in search of Ellis, while Victor begins to lead a panicking Julie to safety. Donna leads people into the van trying to keep order when Fatima finds her. Realizing that Ellis and Julie are missing, Donna prepares to look for them but Fatima tells her to follow protocol and get everyone to Town. Donna agrees and gets inside the van while Fatima stays behind. Victor and Julie climb outside his window. Once they reach the ground, Victor sees the Boy in White, and leads Julie into the forest.

Inside the house, Ellis sneaks through the halls while the Smiley Creature walks around. Seeing Fatima’s sweater, Ellis approaches the body believing it to be hers and finds Trudy’s corpse. However, he is discovered by one of the Creatures. Ellis breaks the window, climbs onto the roof the porch and jumps off. Fatima finds him and helps him inside. She then shuts the doors to the foyer in the hope that the Talisman will protect the room. Her idea works, and the Creatures knock on the doors and taunt her. Ellis asks her how she knew that would work, and Fatima tearfully admits that it was a guess based on his father’s experience in the RV. Ellis apologizes to Fatima, and the two say they love each other. Victor leads Julie to a Farway Tree and tells her to get inside and warn Ethan that “it” is starting. Julie says she doesn’t understand but Victor says that Ethan will and promises to be right behind her. Julie climbs inside and emerges in the Root Cellar.

In the Sheriff’s Office, Boyd and Khatri make plans for their journey. Khatri is excited, and believes that this is why he was told to get back in the car, so he and Boyd could help find a way home for those trapped in the Town. Boyd calls him a madman, but their conversation is interrupted by honks from the van. Boyd asks where his son as he and Khatri begin helping the passengers inside. Before Khatri can make it inside, his throat is slashed by a Creature. Boyd shoots the creature to no effect and helps Khatri inside. Boyd tries to stop the bleeding while Khatri gasps for breath and says that his path doesn’t end like this. Khatri asks Boyd to pray with him, and the two begin to recite the Lord’s Prayer as Khatri dies.
