Before we get to the Salvatore School, we start at Triad Industries, where Hot Bad Guy — he doesn’t have a name yet so that’s his official name for now — is trying to find any record of employment for a woman named Seylah. (Reminder: He has the photo that Seylah took from Landon before she returned to Malivore.) He has to go into the super secret back-up archives to find anything, but he does eventually get his hands on her file, which says she went into the pit 20 years ago. So naturally, Hot Bad Guy has questions. More on him later.
As the Salvatore School, Hope and Ric are waiting patiently for the next monster to arrive when they agree to get in front of things this time around: At 2 a.m. Ric calls a meeting to let the students know that they are in possession of a second Malivore artifact. Because of that, the younger students are being evacuated to the Lockwood mansion, and anyone else who wants to leave can. However, exam week stops for no one.
It isn’t long before Rafael has the first real experience with the monster of the week. In his dream, Hope is kissing him — take a moment to let that sink in — which is quickly followed by one of his old foster dads hitting him with a belt. He then notices a creepy woman in a black dress and veil talking about wanting the artifact. And when he wakes up, his arm is actually red from where his old foster dad hit him.
Raf shows Hope and Ric, and Ric comes up with a theory: They’re dealing with a night hag, a creature that interacts through dreams. In other words, everyone has to stay awake, so at least if a night hag was going to show up, it was nice enough to show up on exam week when everyone’s pulling all-nighters anyway, right?!
Landon — who can’t figure out why Hope is avoiding him post-amnesia — is the next to see the hag in a dream that involves him having to take a test on his first day at school and then standing in front of the class without pants on. So yeah, his fears are incredibly high school and I love him for it. Realizing it’s a nightmare, he stabs himself with a pencil and wakes up bleeding.
One thing to note: When the night hag asked Landon about the Malivore artifact she said “bring it home,” so I’m sticking with my theory that he’s the Prince of Malivore seeing as how his father was from there.
Elsewhere, in the gym, Rafael and Hope decide a sparring session is the perfect way to stay awake, but when Raf confronts Hope about Landon, he tells her she needs to stop lying to him, even if it’s to protect him. (Next: Landon faces his demons)
