With the help of Eliza Duncan, a ghost enthusiast and new friend to the pair, they set out to try to find out what really happened. Despite Wendell’s increasingly blurry memory, they hear a rumor about Wendell’s death and begin to wonder if it might not have been an accident. Meanwhile, Marjorie starts to befriend the people who used to bully Eliza, putting their friendship to the test.
