Woe What a Night

Episode 4 of Wednesday starts with her sneaking into the County coroner's office with the help of Thing. She wants to learn more about the victims of the monster and examine the body of the latest victim. Her sleuthing is interrupted by the return of the coroner and the sheriff.

She hides in one of the mortuary cabinets and overhears their conversation. The killer is keeping trophies from his victims. The sheriff asks the coroner to keep this a secret and he gladly agrees. He is more excited that this is his last case before retiring. The next morning, Wednesday shares her findings with Edin who faints at the site of the grotesque crime scene photos. Later in class, Wednesday finds Xavier's neck wounds a little suspicious but he tells her that he tweaked his neck while fencing. Wednesday doesn't believe him and spies on him. She discovers his secret painting room on the school grounds and breaks in. Once she is in, she finds drawings of the monster, she takes one of the drawings and leaves. Xavier spots her before she leaves and asks what she is doing there. She asks him the same question and he tells her that it is his private art studio but refuses to give her a tour. She has no valid excuse for being there so she decides to ask him to the upcoming Rave N dance. Xavier is happy to be asked and thinks she is into him. It is a bit sad to see Xavier and Tyler try to get into Wednesday's good graces when she is more preoccupied with finding the monster. She is not going to be able to understand their feelings or even reciprocate them. Eugene should have just listened to Wednesday, it was a terrible idea to go alone into the woods. Ajax and Enid make a cute couple though, and it is adorable that in the midst of all the killings and mysteries they can find love. Edin is also happy that Wednesday has changed her mind and wants to bond over dress shopping. Wednesday however has other ideas and doesn't think dress shopping is their thing. While in town she visits the sheriff and tries to convince him they should walk together. The sheriff is hesitant at first but between the Mayor's constant calls for an update and Wednesday's persuasion, he agrees. He asks her to bring him some evidence and maybe they might work together to zone in on a suspect. Edin left to her own devices runs into Lucas Walker, the mayor's son and one of the three troublemakers. He asks Edin to take him to the dance in her school and lies he wants to make an ex jealous. Edin thinks this is a great idea as she is still under the impression that Ajax ghosted her and wants to make him jealous too. At the dance, Xavier is grumpy to see Tyler and Wednesday together and he asks Bianca to use her siren powers to help him get over Wednesday. Bianca is rightfully annoyed by this request and leaves. Tyler and Wednesday have a great time and she learns that Xavier was once bullied by Tyler but that doesn't faze her. On the other hand, Lucas starts to realize that he has a lot in common with Enid. However, he is at the party to ruin it and he and his friends spray red paint on the students at the end of the party. Enid is disappointed when she finds out that he only used her but the situation gives her an opportunity to clear up the misunderstanding with Ajax. They kiss and makeup.
