To find out, Wednesday and Thing break into the morgue.

She knows how to handle a corpse; Uncle Fester gave her a cadaver for her 13th birthday.

(Omigosh, is the monster Joe fromYou?!)

The coroner is days away from retirement and cannot wait to get out and travel with his wife.

He also sees Wednesday, but shes so perfectly still he assumes she is a corpse.

Meanwhile, Thing swipes the files on all the other victims.

Great work, everyone.

He cant focus on that anyway because hes desperate for Wednesday to ask him to the RaveN.

(The pun is not worth the annoyance of typing it that way, Im sorry to say.)

She pays him what is probably one of her highest compliments: He just became more interesting.

But Wednesday does not have time to shop for a dance she doesnt even want to go to.

He initially dismisses her, which is a real misfire, if you ask me!

But then he comes around and agrees to talk if she can bring him concrete evidence.

His name is Lucas, and we will later learn he has an ex he wants to make jealous.

It all feels a little disjointed.)

Very proud of Tyler for being so vulnerable.

See, therapy works!

Wednesday relocates her murder board to the Hummers shed to spare squeamish Enid her grotesque visual aid.

Okay, I love Eugene!

Its a little tired, no?

And, like, just respect her boundaries, buddy, shes not interested!

Anyway, Wednesday shows Eugene some of Xaviers art and Eugene recognizes the backdrop: Its a cave.

It isfullof deer bones.

And: a claw.

Busted, she confronts him with her theory that he could be the monster.

Undeterred, Wednesday brings the cloth and the claw to the sheriff and demands he run tests.

I feel like she needs a warrant?

But Thing has other ideas!

And I thought he really knew her!

Thing also shoplifted the dress from Uriahs Heap.

Wednesday looks fantastic, 10/10, perfect dress.

I like that she pins her braids up, a small but still in-character concession to formalwear.

At the RaveN, everyone is wearing white so Wednesday can stand out.

(Im sorry, but lol at these fuckin nerds.)

Tyler also helped destroy one of Xaviers murals.

Wednesday, of piranhas-in-the-pool infamy, can hardly judge.

Shes impressed that he knew this about her and liked her anyway.

No, but that dead-in-the-eyes look tells me shes having the time of her life.

Tyler is also thrilled.

Bianca and Xavier are miserable, but theyre boring, so who can they blame but themselves?

She and Wednesday wind up bonding a little as Bianca confesses she never knows anyones true feelings about her.

Bianca envies Wednesday, who doesnt care what anyone thinks of her.

Wednesday acknowledges that she sometimes wishes she cared a little bit more.

Weems, a paragon of maturity, shrieks bloody murder.

Wednesday licks the paint and pouts: They couldnt even spring for real pigs blood.

But before Wednesday can consider this, she has another vision: Eugene is being attacked in the woods.

I mean, is pretty embarrassing!

She claws out, they make out, Im very happy for both of them.

Wednesday finds Eugene but not before the monster does.

Eugene looks like hes in pretty bad shape, but I bet he survives!

Hummers stick together, and Wednesday will not let him die.
