1. How well
do we really know our parents?
Copy !req
2. Take my father.
Copy !req
3. I've always considered him an open book.
Copy !req
4. A man given to misguided schemes
and exaggerated displays of affection.
Copy !req
5. But when he was a student,
Copy !req
6. he was accused of a murder
that took place right up there.
Copy !req
7. Which leads me to wonder...
Copy !req
8. what really happened
that stormy night 32 years ago?
Copy !req
9. I think he had a sword,
and they certainly have issues.
Copy !req
10. I don't like to tell tales,
Sheriff Walker,
Copy !req
11. but it's all Morticia Frump's fault.
Copy !req
12. They were fighting over her.
Copy !req
13. Tish...
Copy !req
14. I don't know what to say, Gomez.
Copy !req
15. Seeing you in handcuffs,
accused of murder...
Copy !req
16. I've never loved you more.
Copy !req
17. Cara mia.
Copy !req
18. All right, that's enough, Addams.
Copy !req
19. Let's go.
Copy !req
20. Let's move it out. Let's get going.
Copy !req
21. Ah, the fetid air of teenage angst.
Copy !req
22. These were the best years of our lives,
were they not, Tish?
Copy !req
23. They certainly were, mi cariño.
Copy !req
24. I hope Wednesday's happy to see us.
Copy !req
25. I left a dozen messages
on her crystal ball. Still no reply.
Copy !req
26. Fret not, my plum-lipped cupid.
Copy !req
27. I'm sure she's dying to see us.
Copy !req
28. Mmm.
Copy !req
29. Come on, let's go.
Copy !req
30. Nevermore was created
as a safe haven for our children
Copy !req
31. to learn and to grow,
Copy !req
32. no matter who or what they are.
Copy !req
33. I realize most of you have heard about
Copy !req
34. the unfortunate incident
involving one of our students.
Copy !req
35. But I'm happy to report
that Eugene is on the mend
Copy !req
36. and is expected to make a full recovery.
Copy !req
37. So let's focus on the positive
Copy !req
38. and make this Parents' Weekend
our very best yet.
Copy !req
39. On the mend?
Copy !req
40. Try in a coma.
Copy !req
41. Have you been to see him?
Copy !req
42. - You're his friend.
- I'm the reason he's in the hospital.
Copy !req
43. That is not your fault, okay?
Copy !req
44. The monster hasn't attacked anyone
in the past week.
Copy !req
45. Maybe you finally scared it off.
Copy !req
46. Or maybe it went into hiding
to avoid this weekend.
Copy !req
47. Look at this.
Some things never change.
Copy !req
48. I knew I should have worn my plague mask.
Copy !req
49. Would you look at my family?
Copy !req
50. Talk about toxic pack mentality.
Copy !req
51. I give my mom 30 seconds
before her judge-y claws come out.
Copy !req
52. Let's get this over with.
Copy !req
53. There she is.
Copy !req
54. Oh, how we missed those
accusing eyes and youthful sneer.
Copy !req
55. How are you, my little rain cloud?
Copy !req
56. I thought Thing was filling you in
on my every move.
Copy !req
57. I uncovered your feeble subterfuge
almost immediately.
Copy !req
58. So, how's the little fella doing?
Copy !req
59. Does he still have all his fingers?
Copy !req
60. Relax. I haven't snapped
any of his digits.
Copy !req
61. Yet.
Copy !req
62. So tell us everything.
Copy !req
63. Since you've abandoned me here,
I've been hunted, haunted...
Copy !req
64. and the target of an attempted murder.
Copy !req
65. Ah, Nevermore. I love you so.
Copy !req
66. Enid.
Copy !req
67. Oh, let me look at you.
Copy !req
68. - One-one-thousand, two-one-thousand...
- Have you not been waxing?
Copy !req
69. Three seconds. That's a personal best.
Copy !req
70. Are you feeling well?
You're looking a touch anemic.
Copy !req
71. Have you been eating enough red meat?
Copy !req
72. It's good to see you too, Mom.
Copy !req
73. And you, Dad.
Copy !req
74. Not sure how much more of this
family togetherness I can take.
Copy !req
75. Think you skipped where you apologize
for acting like a jerk last weekend.
Copy !req
76. I'm sorry for what happened at the dance.
Copy !req
77. I shouldn't have asked you
to siren-song me like that.
Copy !req
78. Guessing your dad's
a no-show again this year?
Copy !req
79. Yeah.
Copy !req
80. I got a text this morning. You?
Copy !req
81. Gabrielle hasn't shown her face
since I started here.
Copy !req
82. Probably sunning herself
somewhere in the Seychelles.
Copy !req
83. My darling daughter.
Copy !req
84. I made it.
Copy !req
85. Wouldn't miss this for the world.
Copy !req
86. I guess you misjudged her.
Copy !req
87. Our old yearbook.
Copy !req
88. I haven't laid eyes on this
in over 20 years.
Copy !req
89. Such good times we had,
didn't we, Larissa?
Copy !req
90. Some of us better than others.
Copy !req
91. Oh, don't be so modest.
Copy !req
92. You always filled a room
with your presence.
Copy !req
93. Like a stately sequoia tree.
Copy !req
94. And I guess that would make you
the lumberjack.
Copy !req
95. There's that biting
sense of humor that I always adored.
Copy !req
96. Do you remember when we did that duet
for the Solstice Talent Show?
Copy !req
97. Your Judy Garland impression
was a dead ringer.
Copy !req
98. Sounds positively suicidal.
Copy !req
99. Oh.
Copy !req
100. My picture's gone.
Copy !req
101. Really? Well, that is odd.
Copy !req
102. May I borrow this for the weekend?
Copy !req
103. That way Gomez and I can take
a little walk down memory lane.
Copy !req
104. Rawr.
Copy !req
105. All right.
Copy !req
106. Let's get down
to the matter at hand, shall we? Hmm?
Copy !req
107. Unfortunately, Wednesday's
assimilation has been rocky at best.
Copy !req
108. Because I refuse to embrace
Copy !req
109. the culture of dishonesty
and denial permeating this school.
Copy !req
110. Starting with the monster that
killed Rowan and put Eugene in the ICU.
Copy !req
111. Although I do hear he's on the mend.
Copy !req
112. We've always encouraged Wednesday
to speak her mind.
Copy !req
113. Sometimes her sharp tongue can cut deep.
Copy !req
114. Apparently her therapist feels
she hasn't been very open to the process.
Copy !req
115. Their time together has not yielded
the results we'd hoped.
Copy !req
116. I'm not a lab rat.
Copy !req
117. Dr. Kinbott and I have spoken,
and we both agree
Copy !req
118. it would be most beneficial for you all
to attend a family session this weekend.
Copy !req
119. No.
Copy !req
120. I thought that might be your reaction,
but your parents can see the wisdom in it.
Copy !req
121. Um, not to side with Wednesday,
but, um, we're only here for the weekend.
Copy !req
122. Oh, come on.
Copy !req
123. What can it hurt? To be honest,
Copy !req
124. I've always been a big fan
of head-shrinking.
Copy !req
125. It's not that kind of head-shrinking,
mon chéri.
Copy !req
126. Well,
Copy !req
127. that is disappointing.
Copy !req
128. But anything for our little girl.
Copy !req
129. Ah.
Copy !req
130. Yeah.
Copy !req
131. You make sure they search that cave
for any sign of that creature.
Copy !req
132. No stone unturned.
They bag and tag everything, all right?
Copy !req
133. And then follow up with the lab.
I want the DNA results on that claw.
Copy !req
134. We already got one kid in the ICU,
a bunch of people in the morgue.
Copy !req
135. I don't want any more.
Copy !req
136. All right.
Copy !req
137. Son of a bitch.
Copy !req
138. What's wrong?
Copy !req
139. Just hard to stomach a murderer
wandering around town scot-free.
Copy !req
140. At least they care enough
about Wednesday to go to therapy with her.
Copy !req
141. Tyler, come on. We've been through this.
Copy !req
142. I'm just... I'm not comfortable
Copy !req
143. dredging up the family past
with some complete stranger.
Copy !req
144. Think it's easy for me to sit there
and talk about my crap?
Copy !req
145. I've got a lot on my plate now, bud.
Copy !req
146. You got the results already?
Copy !req
147. All right. Tape off the scene.
I'll be right there.
Copy !req
148. Dad. You okay? What's going on?
Copy !req
149. You know Reggie, the local coroner?
Copy !req
150. He just blew his brains out.
Copy !req
151. So, who wants to start?
Copy !req
152. Maybe we can discuss what it's like
having Wednesday away from home?
Copy !req
153. I mean, for me...
Copy !req
154. it's been hard
not having Wednesday around.
Copy !req
155. I never thought I'd miss
being waterboarded so much.
Copy !req
156. Morticia, Gomez.
Copy !req
157. - How have you been coping?
- It's been torture for us too.
Copy !req
158. Fortunately,
my brother Fester's rack fits two people.
Copy !req
159. Nothing like a good stretch
to bring out the best in each other.
Copy !req
160. Querida mía.
Copy !req
161. Um...
Copy !req
162. Enough!
Copy !req
163. I think it's high time
my parents faced the music.
Copy !req
164. It seems they've been lying to me.
Copy !req
165. Keeping secrets.
Copy !req
166. Murderous secrets
that need to be addressed.
Copy !req
167. Who was Garrett Gates,
and why are you accused of murdering him?
Copy !req
168. Whoa.
Copy !req
169. Those charges were dropped.
Your father is an innocent man.
Copy !req
170. Local sheriff doesn't seem too convinced.
Copy !req
171. Wednesday, stop.
Copy !req
172. This is neither the time nor the place.
Copy !req
173. Actually, this is exactly the place.
Copy !req
174. - These sessions are...
- Doctor. This does not concern you.
Copy !req
175. And I refuse to debate a decades-old
witch-hunt with you right now.
Copy !req
176. - I...
- Darling, maybe we should...
Copy !req
177. No. This session is over.
Copy !req
178. Have it your way, Mother.
Copy !req
179. - Wednes... Wednesday?
- If you refuse to tell me the truth,
Copy !req
180. I'll just have to excavate it myself.
Copy !req
181. You...
Copy !req
182. Thanks for the candy.
Copy !req
183. Actually, that's potpourri.
Copy !req
184. Why don't you take the bowl?
Copy !req
185. What were you thinking?
Copy !req
186. How could you ambush
your father like that? Wednesday.
Copy !req
187. How could I?
You insisted I go to this school.
Copy !req
188. Did you really think
I wouldn't find out your secret?
Copy !req
189. You don't know the full story.
Your father did nothing wrong.
Copy !req
190. I'll be the judge of that.
Copy !req
191. Potpourri?
Copy !req
192. Mmm!
Copy !req
193. How did you find me?
Copy !req
194. MorningSong community misses you.
Copy !req
195. I miss you.
Copy !req
196. And by community, you mean cult?
Copy !req
197. We are a personal development movement
Copy !req
198. that helps people
take control of their lives.
Copy !req
199. After you take control
of their bank accounts.
Copy !req
200. I haven't come here to fight, Brandy Jane.
Copy !req
201. My name is Bianca.
Copy !req
202. New name. New life.
Copy !req
203. It's time to come home.
Copy !req
204. That place was never my home.
Copy !req
205. - Gideon said you'd resist.
- Don't say that man's name to me.
Copy !req
206. You think he'd give a damn about
some single mom and her daughter
Copy !req
207. if we weren't sirens?
Copy !req
208. That is no way to talk
about your stepfather.
Copy !req
209. You actually married him.
Copy !req
210. He wants you to come home,
so that we can be a real family.
Copy !req
211. Hard pass.
Copy !req
212. He's already got one siren
to do his bidding.
Copy !req
213. Goodbye, Ma.
Copy !req
214. I don't want to see more MorningSong
bracelets anywhere near this town.
Copy !req
215. My siren song is drying up.
Copy !req
216. Recruitment numbers are down,
Copy !req
217. and the wrong people
are starting to ask questions.
Copy !req
218. This wasn't a request.
Copy !req
219. And if I refuse?
Copy !req
220. Then everybody here is gonna know
how you siren'd your way into Nevermore.
Copy !req
221. I finally make something of myself
and you want to destroy it.
Copy !req
222. You haven't made squat, Bianca.
Copy !req
223. You're just scamming
a higher class of people,
Copy !req
224. but they are not your friends.
Copy !req
225. Sooner or later they will see through you.
Copy !req
226. A siren can never change her scales.
Copy !req
227. You got until the end of the weekend
to say your goodbyes.
Copy !req
228. I harvested hive number three.
Copy !req
229. The bees miss you, Eugene.
Copy !req
230. We all do.
Copy !req
231. Thanks for keeping an eye on him.
Copy !req
232. Any updates?
Copy !req
233. He didn't deserve this.
Copy !req
234. I should be in that bed.
Copy !req
235. Why did you go without me?
Copy !req
236. - Didn't mean to startle you, dear.
- You must be Wednesday.
Copy !req
237. Eugene's moms. Sue and Janet.
Copy !req
238. You were all he could talk about lately.
Copy !req
239. He was so happy you joined the Hummers.
Copy !req
240. Eugene hasn't had the easiest time
fitting in at Nevermore.
Copy !req
241. He was so excited
to finally make a real friend.
Copy !req
242. I brought him some honey.
Copy !req
243. Eugene loves those dang bees
like they're his kids.
Copy !req
244. His fuzzy-buzzy babies.
Copy !req
245. He's gonna be okay, right?
Copy !req
246. I should go.
Copy !req
247. First time someone's
killed themselves in the morgue.
Copy !req
248. Guys don't know what to do with the body.
Copy !req
249. - What do you got?
- Gun was legal and registered in his name.
Copy !req
250. Colt.45.
Copy !req
251. Janitor said he kept it in his desk.
Copy !req
252. I just saw Doc last week.
Copy !req
253. He was planning a cruise with his wife.
He seemed excited all about retirement.
Copy !req
254. Guess you never know
what's going through someone's mind.
Copy !req
255. A bullet, apparently.
We got security footage?
Copy !req
256. Nope. Camera was obscured.
Black bubblegum.
Copy !req
257. I got them scrubbing through video
to find out how long it's been there.
Copy !req
258. Black bubblegum.
Copy !req
259. You don't say...
Copy !req
260. The suicide note says
he felt guilty about an old case.
Copy !req
261. Says he covered it up,
faked the coroner's report,
Copy !req
262. and has been living with guilt
for all these years.
Copy !req
263. What case?
Copy !req
264. Uh, Garrett Gates.
Copy !req
265. Garrett Gates. You gotta be kidding me.
Copy !req
266. You heard of it?
Copy !req
267. I've been waiting 30 years
to put away his murderer.
Copy !req
268. You know who did it?
Copy !req
269. There's only ever been one suspect.
Copy !req
270. I always thought
they were covering up the truth.
Copy !req
271. Now I got my proof.
Copy !req
272. Mmm. I am famished.
Copy !req
273. You're not hungry, darling?
Copy !req
274. My appetite eludes me, Mother.
Copy !req
275. The same way the truth eludes you.
Copy !req
276. We need to tell her.
Copy !req
277. She'll never believe us.
Copy !req
278. We must stay strong.
Copy !req
279. And hope that something more morbid
comes along to distract her.
Copy !req
280. So are you going to make me ask?
Copy !req
281. Ajax and I haven't defined
our relationship yet.
Copy !req
282. I'm not talking about boys.
Copy !req
283. Have you wolfed out yet?
Copy !req
284. No.
Copy !req
285. Well, that is a disappointment.
Copy !req
286. That's me.
Copy !req
287. A huge disappointment.
Copy !req
288. Can I ask what this is about, Sheriff?
Copy !req
289. What's happening, Ms. Thornhill?
Copy !req
290. I have no idea.
Copy !req
291. Gomez Addams.
Copy !req
292. How can I help you, Sheriff?
Copy !req
293. You're under arrest
for the murder of Garrett Gates.
Copy !req
294. You have the right to remain silent.
Copy !req
295. Anything you say can and will be
used against you in a court of law.
Copy !req
296. Dad?
Copy !req
297. You have the right to an attorney.
Copy !req
298. If you cannot afford one,
one will be appointed for you.
Copy !req
299. My little tormenta, how's your mother?
Copy !req
300. Devastated. She hates you in orange.
Copy !req
301. I caught her laying a rose on a grave
earlier today.
Copy !req
302. The headstone read "Garrett Gates."
Copy !req
303. The very boy
you've been arrested for murdering.
Copy !req
304. Care to explain?
Copy !req
305. Garrett was infatuated with your mother.
Copy !req
306. He mistook her kindness for interest.
Copy !req
307. His infatuation turned into obsession,
Copy !req
308. and he started stalking her.
Copy !req
309. - Why didn't you call the police?
- We tried.
Copy !req
310. But his family were
the oldest and richest in Jericho.
Copy !req
311. No one believed us.
Copy !req
312. Garrett's father, an outcast-hating bigot,
Copy !req
313. was furious that your mother
had accused his only son.
Copy !req
314. It all came to a head
the night of the Rave'N Dance.
Copy !req
315. Your mother and I stepped out
to catch our breath.
Copy !req
316. Addams!
Copy !req
317. And that's when I saw him.
Copy !req
318. He had broken into the school.
Copy !req
319. His twisted love for your mother
had made him insane.
Copy !req
320. His eyes bore into me,
brimming with murderous intent.
Copy !req
321. Go. Get out of here. He won't hurt me.
Copy !req
322. Garrett, no!
Copy !req
323. Garrett, stop!
Copy !req
324. My life flashed before my eyes.
Copy !req
325. Driven by jealousy and hate,
Garrett was unstoppable.
Copy !req
326. When I saw the sword,
Copy !req
327. my survival instinct kicked in.
Copy !req
328. It was a terrible accident.
Copy !req
329. If I'm being objective,
his confession sounds entirely plausible,
Copy !req
330. delivered with
the perfect degree of sincerity.
Copy !req
331. Perhaps my father is exactly what he says.
Copy !req
332. Thank you for being honest with me.
Copy !req
333. But then there's the matter of his tells.
Copy !req
334. The way he smooths his mustache.
Copy !req
335. The way he delivers a comforting wink.
Copy !req
336. I've been playing Russian roulette
with him since I was 12.
Copy !req
337. I know them well.
Copy !req
338. I'm sorry I wasn't a better father.
Copy !req
339. Could we please do without
the overt display of emotion?
Copy !req
340. I know they make you feel uncomfortable.
Copy !req
341. How many fathers hand their daughter
a fencing blade when she's five?
Copy !req
342. Your saber strokes
were an essay in perfection.
Copy !req
343. Or teach her how to swim with sharks?
Copy !req
344. They found you as cold-blooded as I do.
Copy !req
345. The right way to flay a rattlesnake?
Copy !req
346. They really do taste like chicken
when prepared properly.
Copy !req
347. The point is, you taught me
how to be strong and independent.
Copy !req
348. How to navigate myself in a world
full of treachery and prejudice.
Copy !req
349. You are the reason
I understand how imperative it is
Copy !req
350. that I never lose sight of myself.
Copy !req
351. So as far as fatherhood goes, I would say
you've been more than adequate.
Copy !req
352. Gracias, Wednesday.
Copy !req
353. We need to talk.
Copy !req
354. How the hell did you get in?
Copy !req
355. Bernice? Bernice!
Copy !req
356. Bernice may or may not have received
a call that her tabby cat Swifty
Copy !req
357. is being held for ransom.
Copy !req
358. My father did not kill Garrett Gates.
Copy !req
359. Well, I have his signed confession,
Copy !req
360. and he identified
the saber he used to do it.
Copy !req
361. Both of which I'm about to deliver
to the District Attorney.
Copy !req
362. Don't you find the timing convenient?
Copy !req
363. The coroner kills himself out of remorse
for a decades-old murder case
Copy !req
364. the very weekend my father,
your prime suspect,
Copy !req
365. deigns to return to town.
Copy !req
366. All I see is a guilty man
who's finally going to pay for his crime.
Copy !req
367. And cuffing him myself,
oh, that was the icing on the cake.
Copy !req
368. How are you failing to see that someone is
Copy !req
369. desperately trying
to derail my investigation?
Copy !req
370. I found the monster's cave,
and I gave you the DNA evidence.
Copy !req
371. Did you even bother to test it?
Copy !req
372. This may come as a shock,
but the world doesn't revolve around you.
Copy !req
373. Here. DNA results.
Copy !req
374. No match. Inconclusive.
Copy !req
375. So you truly believe
this is all some coincidence?
Copy !req
376. Whoever hurt Eugene
also murdered the coroner.
Copy !req
377. Unfortunately, someone sabotaged
the security camera in the morgue,
Copy !req
378. so we don't know what happened.
Copy !req
379. They stuck bubblegum on the lens.
Copy !req
380. Black bubblegum.
Copy !req
381. Maybe I should run DNA on that?
Copy !req
382. Someone is trying to throw me
off my game. This is all a distraction.
Copy !req
383. No, this is about justice being served.
Copy !req
384. Garrett Gates's family deserves closure,
Copy !req
385. even if none of them
are around to take comfort in it.
Copy !req
386. What happened to them?
Copy !req
387. His mother hung herself in the backyard.
Copy !req
388. His father drank himself
to an early grave.
Copy !req
389. Even his little sister didn't escape.
Copy !req
390. She was orphaned,
sent overseas, ended up drowning.
Copy !req
391. Every last one of them's gone.
Copy !req
392. Your father doesn't just have
Garrett's blood on his hands,
Copy !req
393. he's got the whole damn family's.
Copy !req
394. Here. I brought you a gift.
Copy !req
395. That's so sweet.
You didn't have to get me anything.
Copy !req
396. I know, but I thought we got off
on the wrong foot this weekend.
Copy !req
397. I just want you to know
that all I want is the very best for you.
Copy !req
398. What are these?
Copy !req
399. Brochures.
Copy !req
400. For summer camp.
Copy !req
401. These aren't just ordinary summer camps.
Copy !req
402. These are camps
for lycanthropy conversion.
Copy !req
403. Oh, no need to be dramatic, Enid.
Copy !req
404. You want to send me
to conversion therapy for werewolves?
Copy !req
405. It worked wonders
for your cousin Lucille, didn't it?
Copy !req
406. Seven weeks in the Balkan countryside
Copy !req
407. and she was
howling at the moon in no time.
Copy !req
408. As it should be.
Copy !req
409. Don't you want to wolf out
and finally be normal, honey?
Copy !req
410. Go away.
Copy !req
411. You forgot your fishing gear.
Copy !req
412. Stop trying to be nice.
Copy !req
413. It doesn't suit you.
Copy !req
414. Father packed your favorite bait.
Copy !req
415. What'll happen to him now?
Copy !req
416. Well, he's confessed,
so there won't be a trial.
Copy !req
417. After he's sentenced,
he'll be sent to a state penitentiary,
Copy !req
418. where he'll lose his mind
being separated from Mother.
Copy !req
419. Did you know they haven't spent
a night apart since they tied the knot?
Copy !req
420. I always thought I'd be the first one
in the family behind bars.
Copy !req
421. Lurch and I had a bet going.
Copy !req
422. Come on. Let's see if the fish are biting.
Copy !req
423. That's quite a catch.
Copy !req
424. I'm gonna miss him, Wednesday.
Copy !req
425. It's not over yet. He's innocent.
Copy !req
426. Well,
Copy !req
427. if anyone can figure out
who really committed the crime...
Copy !req
428. it's you.
Copy !req
429. You have to find out the truth
and free Dad.
Copy !req
430. Well, until that happens,
we both know Mother will be falling apart.
Copy !req
431. Which means we have to be strong.
Copy !req
432. And by "we," I mean you.
Copy !req
433. Now, give me one of those.
Copy !req
434. Where is Mother anyway?
Copy !req
435. She said she wanted to be alone.
Copy !req
436. Somewhere where no one would find her.
Copy !req
437. Hello, Mother.
Copy !req
438. Hello, Wednesday.
Copy !req
439. So you're a Nightshade.
Copy !req
440. That didn't take long.
Copy !req
441. Actually, I rejected them.
Copy !req
442. Why? Because I was a member?
Copy !req
443. I'll never live up to your legacy here,
Copy !req
444. so why try?
Copy !req
445. I win the Poe Cup,
you claimed it four times.
Copy !req
446. I join the fencing team, you captained it.
Copy !req
447. Why would you send me somewhere
I could only ever exist in your shadow?
Copy !req
448. It's not a competition, Wednesday.
Copy !req
449. Everything is a competition, Mother.
Copy !req
450. But mostly I rejected them
because they're a trivial social club.
Copy !req
451. We used to be so much more.
Copy !req
452. Our mission was to protect outcasts
from harm and bigotry.
Copy !req
453. In fact, the group was started by
an ancestor of your father's from Mexico.
Copy !req
454. One of the first settlers in America.
Copy !req
455. Goody.
Copy !req
456. I saw her painting at Pilgrim World.
Copy !req
457. Oh.
Copy !req
458. How ironic, since she was the one
who killed Joseph Crackstone.
Copy !req
459. The Nightshades were her secret,
but deadly, answer to his oppression.
Copy !req
460. I know why you've come here, Wednesday.
Copy !req
461. So go on. Ask.
Copy !req
462. Father didn't kill Garrett Gates, did he?
Copy !req
463. No.
Copy !req
464. By the time
I made it up the stairs,
Copy !req
465. I found your father fighting for his life.
It was terrifying.
Copy !req
466. Garrett, no!
Copy !req
467. Garrett!
Copy !req
468. Garrett, stop!
Copy !req
469. Leave him alone!
Copy !req
470. I'll never forget the way he looked at me.
Copy !req
471. He was even foaming at the mouth.
Copy !req
472. It was like I was staring
into the eyes of a rabid beast.
Copy !req
473. Oh, no.
Copy !req
474. It was only
when I heard the scream
Copy !req
475. that I realized what I'd done.
Copy !req
476. Your father was so...
Copy !req
477. calm and brave.
Copy !req
478. Tish, you need to leave right now.
Copy !req
479. Go to your room and lock the door.
Copy !req
480. You were never here.
Copy !req
481. You understand me?
Copy !req
482. Morticia?
Copy !req
483. Put this back on the table.
Copy !req
484. - Go.
- Okay.
Copy !req
485. Your father took the blame
in order to protect me.
Copy !req
486. I was so grateful
when they cleared him of any wrongdoing.
Copy !req
487. But I knew,
Copy !req
488. someday this would come back to haunt us.
Copy !req
489. You said Garrett was foaming at the mouth.
Copy !req
490. His eyes didn't look human.
Copy !req
491. I've never seen someone
so blinded by rage.
Copy !req
492. Maybe it wasn't rage at all.
Copy !req
493. Foaming saliva,
dilated pupils, mental confusion.
Copy !req
494. What are those all textbook symptoms of?
Copy !req
495. But how can that be?
Copy !req
496. There's only one way to find out.
Copy !req
497. This reminds me of when
you got your first grave-digging kit.
Copy !req
498. You were so happy, you nearly smiled.
Copy !req
499. Are you sure you don't want to join?
Copy !req
500. Uh... mm... No, that's okay, darling.
Copy !req
501. I don't want to spoil your fun.
Copy !req
502. Moment of truth.
Copy !req
503. Hello, Garrett.
Copy !req
504. I was right.
Copy !req
505. Well, well,
what do we have here?
Copy !req
506. Guess there's gonna be
an Addams family reunion
Copy !req
507. in lockup tonight.
Copy !req
508. You're both under arrest.
Copy !req
509. Get comfortable.
You can post bail in the morning.
Copy !req
510. Not even the long arm of the law
could keep us apart.
Copy !req
511. At least we'll have
one last night together.
Copy !req
512. Yes.
Copy !req
513. I've seen jackals with more self-control
than you two.
Copy !req
514. Neither one of you are strong enough
to serve hard time.
Copy !req
515. And thanks to me, you won't have to.
Copy !req
516. I knew our little jailbird
would have an escape plan.
Copy !req
517. It's a souvenir from our outing.
I borrowed it from Garrett.
Copy !req
518. He died from nightshade poisoning.
Copy !req
519. The remarkable preservation of soft tissue
and blue tint confirms it.
Copy !req
520. - Which means Garrett was dying...
- Before you stabbed him.
Copy !req
521. You look even more ravishing
as an innocent woman.
Copy !req
522. Yes.
Copy !req
523. For once, could you two
get off of each other and focus.
Copy !req
524. Prove to me you're still worthy
to be called my son!
Copy !req
525. Kill all those outcasts!
Copy !req
526. Sneak into that dance
and spike the punch bowl.
Copy !req
527. Addams!
Copy !req
528. Wednesday.
Copy !req
529. Did you have a vision?
Copy !req
530. What happened?
Copy !req
531. What did you see?
Copy !req
532. The night Garrett died,
Copy !req
533. he had a vial of nightshade poison
that broke in his pocket.
Copy !req
534. He wasn't just trying to kill father.
Copy !req
535. He was going to use the nightshade poison
to murder the entire school.
Copy !req
536. Thank you for seeing us
at such short notice, Mr. Mayor.
Copy !req
537. Yes, well, veiled threats
have that effect.
Copy !req
538. Garrett Gates wasn't killed
by a stab wound.
Copy !req
539. That blue sheen is a telltale sign
of nightshade poisoning.
Copy !req
540. But you already knew that, didn't you?
Copy !req
541. Because back when you were sheriff,
Copy !req
542. you were in charge and covered it up.
Copy !req
543. Ansel Gates hated outcasts and Nevermore.
Copy !req
544. He claimed the land
the school was built on
Copy !req
545. was stolen from his family
over 200 years ago.
Copy !req
546. Garrett went there that night
to spike the punch
Copy !req
547. and kill all the kids at that dance.
Copy !req
548. Ansel confessed the whole thing to me
in a drunken stupor. It was his idea.
Copy !req
549. Why did you instruct Dr. Anwar
to falsify the autopsy report?
Copy !req
550. You knew the truth
about how he really died.
Copy !req
551. Listen, my job was to keep the peace.
Copy !req
552. If there had been a trial,
Copy !req
553. Jericho's and Nevermore's reputations
would have been trashed.
Copy !req
554. I think the only reputation you were
worried about ruining was your own.
Copy !req
555. I remember Garrett bragging to me
Copy !req
556. that his father
had the sheriff in his pocket.
Copy !req
557. One year later,
you get elected mayor. Hmm.
Copy !req
558. No doubt with the full support
of Ansel Gates.
Copy !req
559. I resent your implication.
Copy !req
560. What I resent is that
you could have prevented Garrett's death
Copy !req
561. if you had done your job when I lodged
my complaint about him stalking me.
Copy !req
562. But no.
Copy !req
563. Men like you have no idea
what it feels like not to be believed.
Copy !req
564. What do you want?
Copy !req
565. All charges dropped.
Copy !req
566. My father will be released immediately
Copy !req
567. with a full and unequivocal apology
from the sheriff's office.
Copy !req
568. Do we have a deal?
Copy !req
569. You were very impressive in there.
Copy !req
570. When did your visions begin?
Copy !req
571. A few months ago.
Copy !req
572. - Hmm.
- Before I left for Nevermore.
Copy !req
573. I'm sorry you didn't feel
you could tell me.
Copy !req
574. I know we've had our difficulties lately.
Copy !req
575. Navigating the treacherous shoals
of our mother-daughter relationship.
Copy !req
576. But I'm always here for you, Wednesday.
Copy !req
577. Always.
Copy !req
578. Sometimes when I touch
someone or something,
Copy !req
579. I get these very violent glimpses
from the past or future.
Copy !req
580. I don't know how to control it.
Copy !req
581. Our psychic ability resides
on the spectrum of who we are.
Copy !req
582. Given my disposition,
Copy !req
583. my visions tend to be positive.
Copy !req
584. That makes me a Dove.
Copy !req
585. And for someone like me?
Who sees the world through a darker lens?
Copy !req
586. You're a Raven.
Copy !req
587. Your visions are more potent,
more powerful.
Copy !req
588. But without the proper training,
they can lead to madness.
Copy !req
589. If I could help you, I would, Wednesday.
Copy !req
590. But we're not trained by the living.
Copy !req
591. Somebody from our bloodline reaches out
from beyond to help us when we're ready.
Copy !req
592. Goody has.
Copy !req
593. I've seen her before.
Copy !req
594. Be careful, Wednesday.
Copy !req
595. Goody was a witch of great strength,
Copy !req
596. but her vengeance pushed her too far,
Copy !req
597. and even she couldn't save herself.
Copy !req
598. Sorry about all this.
Copy !req
599. I don't hold grudges,
Copy !req
600. only blood debts.
Copy !req
601. So, your daughter and my son have become...
Copy !req
602. close.
Copy !req
603. I pity any boy
who gets caught in her viper's gaze,
Copy !req
604. but he must be a good egg.
Copy !req
605. She wouldn't tolerate anything less.
Copy !req
606. He has his mom to thank for that.
Copy !req
607. Dad!
Copy !req
608. I missed you so much, Dad.
I missed you so much.
Copy !req
609. Querida.
Copy !req
610. Mi amor.
Copy !req
611. Don't crowd me.
Copy !req
612. So, it's decided. Six weeks at Camp Howl.
Copy !req
613. - You'll need to pick which activity...
- No, I don't.
Copy !req
614. Because I'm not going.
Copy !req
615. Not this summer. Not ever.
Copy !req
616. If I'm meant to wolf out,
then I'm going to do it on my own timeline
Copy !req
617. and not yours.
Copy !req
618. I hope that one day,
you'll finally accept me for who I am.
Copy !req
619. I'm proud of you, kiddo.
Copy !req
620. You do you.
Copy !req
621. I'll come back and help you
under one condition.
Copy !req
622. Wait until the school year is over.
Copy !req
623. - How do I know you won't run away again?
- Because we both have too much to lose.
Copy !req
624. But after this,
Copy !req
625. you and MorningSong
are out of my life... forever.
Copy !req
626. Don't push it.
Copy !req
627. Well, at least we can't say
Parents' Weekend wasn't a nail-biter.
Copy !req
628. I knew you didn't have what it takes
to be a murderer.
Copy !req
629. As much as that stings,
Copy !req
630. gracias, my little death trap.
Copy !req
631. Mwah.
Copy !req
632. As I leafed through
the pages of this yearbook,
Copy !req
633. I was reminded
of all the wonderful times I had here.
Copy !req
634. But they were just that.
Copy !req
635. Mine.
Copy !req
636. You have your own path to blaze.
Copy !req
637. I don't want to be
a stranger in your life, darling.
Copy !req
638. If you need me for anything,
Copy !req
639. anything at all,
Copy !req
640. I'm only a crystal ball away.
Copy !req
641. Thank you, Mother.
Copy !req
642. I knew it.
Copy !req
643. I did witness Rowan
getting murdered that night.
Copy !req
644. Excuse me?
Copy !req
645. When Rowan appeared the next morning,
it was you.
Copy !req
646. When you participated in the talent show,
Copy !req
647. not only did you impersonate Judy Garland,
Copy !req
648. you became her.
Copy !req
649. You're a shape-shifter.
Copy !req
650. That's a fascinating theory.
Copy !req
651. I'm curious to find out
how Sheriff Galpin feels when I tell him.
Copy !req
652. You won't tell a soul, Miss Addams.
Copy !req
653. And it wouldn't matter much if you did.
Copy !req
654. Rowan's father already knows
what happened,
Copy !req
655. and he fully supports my decision
not to involve the authorities.
Copy !req
656. Why would he agree to that?
Copy !req
657. Because Rowan was not in his right mind.
Copy !req
658. His telekinetic abilities
were driving him mad
Copy !req
659. and he attempted to murder you twice.
Copy !req
660. His tragic death allowed us
to rectify the situation
Copy !req
661. without casting the school
or Rowan in an unflattering light.
Copy !req
662. You and Mayor Walker are the same,
aren't you?
Copy !req
663. Burying bodies
to cover your dirty secrets.
Copy !req
664. I did what I needed to do to shield
this school from controversy
Copy !req
665. and protect its students from harm.
Copy !req
666. Tell that to Eugene.
Copy !req
667. How are you protecting him?
Copy !req
668. What on earth?
Copy !req
