## Summary

Bjorn follows Mad Maddy back to Jolene's office. It is revealed that Mad Maddy is Jolene's cousin. Maddy explains to Jolene that she saw a woman floating over her bed that sang to her and then she saw a vision of her own death with her features frozen in fear. Bjorn says that he'd like some more information from her because he's investigating similar deaths.

Captain Holland talks to Bjorn in private and tells him to be careful. She explains that Aaron Holmes is a notorious drunk and even killed someone with his car, but was able to get out of it due to his father's connections. She also tells Bjorn that Maddy is called Mad Maddy for a reason and not to take her too seriously.

Bjorn interviews Maddy on a bench outside of the police department and she explains that the woman that was floating above her was beautiful until she turned into an evil witch/hag. She says that the woman told her she only had 12 hours to live and Maddy begins to cry. Henry and Sammie arrive at the police department, but Bjorn waves them back into the car while he finishes his conversation with Maddy. He tells Maddy he'll do his best to keep her safe and stop anything bad from happening.

Bjorn shares everything he learned with Sammie and Henry. As a local, Sammie knows Maddy's reputation, and asks if he thinks she's being serious. Bjorn seems to think she is. With this new knowledge, they head to the Fort to do some research to better equip themselves against the monster.

Henry attempts to connect with his online friends for information, but doesn't have any luck. Sammie finds an ancient manuscript written in an old Celtic language with someone's translation. She reads about a woman in white that turns into a hag called a banshee. The banshee's purpose is to seek out those who have done wrong and are usually attached to a specific person and summoned by an object. Sammie takes the book over to Bjorn and Henry.

With this information, Bjorn suspects that the banshee may be connected to Sophia, Dale's girlfriend. Henry tries to find some information on the crash with Aaron Holmes to see if the person he killed in the DUI incident is related to Sophia at all. Sammie finds information that the person Aaron Holmes killed was the husband of Sophia. They decide the banshee has to be tied to either Sophia or her daughter, Annie.

Once their research is done, they only have 3 hours left before Maddy's time runs out.
