Plot

Trinity and Nicky come back to the house. What could go wrong?

Lucy and her family are heading towards the Roller Coaster at Golden Apple Amusement Park. Meanwhile, the park's engineer, Mr. Peterson, is showing him family where the carousel is located. Lucy gets on the roller coaster, and her father ties her balloon to the coaster because of the windy weather. As the roller coaster speeds up, the sky begins to darken and lightning strikes. A bolt of lightning heads directly towards Lucy, and suddenly, she disappears...

The team gathers around the police station, planning to disable the camera systems using a Drone. At that moment, Delroy tries to take the drone's controller from Ivan, but the drone gets caught in power lines and explodes. This causes all electrical systems, including the cameras, to go offline. Trinity sneaks into the police station. Leslie is banging on a TV, trying to get it to turn on. Trinity crouches down and reaches Mr. Peterson's cell, showing him the Golden Apple Coin and asking if he knows what it is. Mr. Peterson tries to take the coin from Trinity, but she escapes.

Nicky is walking home alone after school. Trinity approaches from behind, unintentionally scaring him. She takes him to Mr. Peterson's house to help him face his fears. Meanwhile, a van pulls up near the house.

Nicky sees a shadow behind him and starts running. Trinity, however, can't see anything. Nicky sees the shadow again, but Trinity tells him he's imagining it. Trinity stops in front of an old arcade machine labeled "Future Told." She inserts the coin, activating the machine, and a notebook falls from its head. Just then, they hear footsteps. A crow-like creature is wreaking havoc on the paintings inside the house. The creature, called the Guest, spots Nicky and Trinity and begins chasing them. Nicky runs and climbs onto the roof. As he's about to climb through a window, he mistakes Trinity for The Thing and nearly falls, but Trinity catches him. They start running again and hide in a closet. After a while, Quentin opens the closet, scaring Trinity and Nicky, who flee, only to run into the Guest in the hallway. Nicky trips and falls. Just as the Guest is about to grab him, Quentin topples a wardrobe onto the Guest and shows the kids an escape route. The three of them flee the house and cross the street. Quentin reveals that he's a journalist investigating the missing children. However, he's not only looking into Aaron and Mya; he asks the kids if they've heard of Lucy's story. Quentin tells them that children around Mr. Peterson have been disappearing for years. Trinity wants to join the investigation, but Quentin warns her it's too dangerous for a child and drives off in his van.

The next day, during a break at school, the group is eating lunch while Trinity recounts what happened the day before. Maritza gets upset with Trinity for putting her brother, Enzo, in danger. Ivan agrees, saying Trinity endangered everyone by visiting Mr. Peterson. Hearing this, Nicky gets angry. He makes the others swear never to see Mr. Peterson again. Their loud argument catches the attention of nearby kids, who are whispering about a newspaper clipping. A kid throws the newspaper at them, and the headline reads, "GUILT BY ASSOCIATION," with a photo of Nicky. Furious, Nicky storms off, and when Trinity follows, he tells her he wants to be left alone. At that moment, Nicky begins seeing The Thing again, freaking out in the middle of the school hallway. Some kids mock him, while others give him strange looks. Finch snaps a photo of Nicky. Nicky then runs to the back of the school, seeking refuge near the dumpsters. But The Thing reappears behind him. He trips over a bin and falls, and The Thing attacks him. The camera then cuts to Nicky curled up in a ball covered in cuts and scratches with the same bag from S1:E6 on his head.
