Episode Two

Painted on a wall is a giant version of the circular tattoo, a shrine in front of it. Chanting in a foreign language is heard as a hand scatters smoke around.

In the forest, a woman is running terrified.

At the Herald Newspaper, Audrey is showing Nathan articles of their cases to try and help him remember who he is. Vincent is trying to get him to remember how to heal. They are both being too pushy and Nathan doesn’t like it, feels like he’s being used so he walks out.

A young man, Brent Buckley is found dead in his camping tent. Claw marks all over him. His camping group is shocked. Audrey questions them and Dwight shows up to help. Audrey learns that Shelby, a young woman in the camping group found the body, inside a zipped tent. Looking at the tent they find claw marks inside the tent that scratch their way out not in as evident by the paw prints facing outward. Dwight identifies the print as a mountain lion. Someone turned into a mountain Lion, was in that tent that clawed Brent and his way out. Brent’s father is at the crime scene and overhears Dwight say this is a trouble. He gets mad at Shelby and Ryan, the others who was there. He tells them this is their fault, they were supposed to keep him from those freaks. Audrey is going to talk to him but Dwight won’t let her since he’s a follower of Reverend Driscal and bitter that Audrey killed him (to protect a troubled girl). Audrey’s surprised people are still followers of Driscal since he’s been dead over a year.  Dwight says, “It gets worse the Good Shepard Church is saying they found a new Reverend to replace him.” They both know that could be bad, since Driscal and his parishioners stirred up violence against the troubled. Dwight takes the father aside to talk to him.

Just then Ryan and Shelby realize that another member of their camping group is missing, their friend Willow. They thought she went home but realized she didn’t. Everyone goes into high gear, there’s a missing member of the camping party.

Act I

Officers canvas the forest looking for Willow, a woman with dirty blond hair.

Nathan comes to help Audrey search putting their disagreement aside for the sake of this girl. Audrey reveals Willow may have a trouble, some kind of turn into an animal thing like Native American folk lore and she’s already killed someone.

Brent’s Father Mr. Buckley is searching too, with some of his church buddies, who don’t seem interested in rescuing her as they hold onto their guns.

Audrey is worried about her, Nathan knows they have to find her first. They search together and she lets Nathan lead. He says they should search by the road because that’s where he would go.

By the road Audrey and Nathan find Willow, the same woman who was being chased at the beginning. She is on the edge of the road collapsed, exhausted and dehydrated. They send her to the hospital. And Nathan’s on the case with Audrey again.

Late that night Audrey is in her pajamas, Nathan enters her place he knows who she is and he missed her. They kiss only for a mysterious woman, with auburn hair and cheekbones like Audrey to pull Nathan away and kill him as Audrey stands frozen unable to do anything. Audrey sits in the corner terrified. The corner turns into a forest and she hides between rocks as the woman calls out to her. Audrey is a little girl of about three years and the woman finds her and pulls her out by her hair. But then Audrey lying in bed wakes up panicked shaking.

The next day Audrey and Nathan go and talk to the other two campers. Shelby was sleeping and Ryan went out to take a leak and then he was sleeping outside so he had no reason to go back in the tent. They thank them and get a call from the hospital, Willow is stable and able to talk to them.

Duke meets Audrey and Nathan at the entrance to the Hospital, she’d asks him to come and he asks what he can do. She turns to Nathan, who stands a ways from them. Nathan is having trouble getting his gun back in his holster.  Duke turns to Audrey, “Maybe you shouldn’t give him a gun.” Duke says. Audrey comments, “I want him to feel like a cop someone just needs to keep an eye on him while we question this witness…and possible murder.” Duke is annoyed she asked but agrees because “I’m not leaving you alone with him”, he says and points to Nathan.

Inside the hospital room Audrey asks the woman, Willow, what happened? She says a giant cat was chasing her and she just kept running. When Audrey tells her that Brent is dead. “It appears he was killed by a mountain Lion” Willow’s saddened. “I knew it was a bad idea to go out there but I was upset they wanted to cheer me up and I’d just made friends.” Audrey asks, “Why were you upset?” “It had taken everything I had to move to Haven I was in an abusive relationship back home and when my grandmother passed leaving me her house I came. Yesterday I’d just found out my job is being eliminated. Brent joked that I could live out in the woods. It was just supposed to take my mind off it.” Audrey asks if she was particularly upset last night, “Yeah, I had a fight with Shelby. She’s Brent’s girlfriend. I didn’t think he cared about her the way she cares about him. He’s just like his dad, unfeeling, all in it for himself. But she just doesn’t see it. He’s such a jerk to her.”

Audrey searches the drawers of the hospital and finds a syringe and some gauze. She says, “Okay, here’s what we’re going to do.” She tells Willow they’re going to do a small blood test to make sure everything’s okay. She turns to Duke who realizes that’s why he’s there and is annoyed. He asks to talk to her outside. In the hall Audrey pleads with him. Nathan’s confused. Audrey explains Duke’s trouble, that he absorbs the blood of a troubled person, if they’re troubled. Nathan puts the pieces together, she might be the one to cause the trouble and Duke can see if she’s troubled. Duke reluctantly agrees.

Brent’s father is upset that his son is dead, as he speaks to his wife, she comments that they should have had a better relationship. He shouldn’t have been so hard on him. Mr. Buckley says, “Do you know what he was doing?” He goes over to the Hospital to kill that bitch who killed his son.

Audrey takes the blood herself. Nathan comments she’s good at that. Duke says, “It’s part of a past life.”

In the hall they put the blood on Duke and nothing happens, it’s not her. Willow’s not troubled. From her hospital room Willow asks if it’s okay.

Audrey goes over to Willow and says everything is okay. When Willow asks to know what all this is about if it was an animal attack Audrey admits that Brent might have been murdered. Willow’s worried it’s her fault. Audrey tries to assure her it wasn’t but Willow insists saying that, “When Shelby wouldn’t listen to me I went to prove Brent was a jerk. I was with him that night.” Brent’s father overhears.

Mr. Buckley arrives at Shelby’s house and fires at her but misses. He yells, “You killed my son” as she runs inside, locks the door, and hides as she calls the police.

Act II

Audrey goes over to Shelby’s and finds Dwight is there and so is Brent’s father with a shotgun threatening Shelby. Dwight came since they’re a little short-handed. He tried to get her to go out the back but she won’t move. Audrey and Dwight try to get Mr. Buckley to calm down but he’s mad she killed his son. Audrey tells Dwight Nathan and Duke are with Willow, who is not troubled. Shelby might be the troubled person apparently Brent was stepping out on her. Audrey tries to convince him they don’t know that she killed Brent but there’s no reasoning with him. Audrey goes around back to get to Shelby. Mr. Buckley lights something and throws it into the house, the house starts to burn, Shelby screams. Audrey gets in through the back door and finds Shelby and her house is lighting up quick. She gets her out.

The ambulance there Ryan comes to Shelby to see if she’s alright. Audrey calmly talks to Shelby about her family. Knowing she’s asking about whether she’s troubled or not she says she was adopted “that’s how she’d met Willow she worked in records at the adoption agency in Haven.” Audrey and Dwight learn Shelby didn’t know about Brent and Willow and says, “If that’s true she was right. He is jerk. I can’t believe she’d do that for me.” Ryan asks, “You’re not mad?” She turns to Ryan, “Of course I’m mad, but I’d break up with him I wouldn’t kill him. I couldn’t. I loved him. I didn’t want him dead.” Ryan comforts her. Audrey and Dwight are surprised by her reaction but her reaction makes it clear she really didn’t know. And Audrey points out that she’d probably have manifested in some way during the fire. They are back to square one, expect he had to invite the person in his tent so it was someone he knew. Dwight says, “That doesn’t help much. Brent was Haven’s drug dealer he did his deals in the woods.” Audrey’s upset, “It really could be anyone.”

Act III

It’s the next day they’ve had all Brent’s records shipped over to the department Duke, Nathan, Audrey, Vince and Dave go over the records. Vince and Dave are very opinionated about who the person could be as if they have some insider information about who has what trouble. Of course they bicker about it. Audrey complains that they should really keep a record of this stuff it could be helpful to the police department. They admit their records have been out of sorts the last few…decades. The group continues to search.

Willow is released from the hospital, Ryan and Shelby meet her. Shelby asks her again, “You’re sure it’s okay if I stay with you.” Shelby looks to the police escort with her. “Yeah, he looks cute and I’ll need someone to help me.” Willow says. Shelby smiles and says “You look fine.”

As Ryan helps them into Shelby’s car he tells Shelby that if she needs anything just to call. But he can’t leave her and tells her he’ll follow her to make sure they’re safe. Willow jokes about him moving in too.

At the police station Audrey asks to look at the crime scene again. Vince hands over a picture he drew. Audrey asks “if Shelby and Ryan were there why did the mountain lion go after Willow, unless she was targeted.” They’ve already got a person at her place since Shelby’s staying with her. They continue to look at the evidence.

At the house Shelby announces to Ryan in the main room that Willow has just gone to sleep. She offers him some tea and he accepts. She says he’s really nice for staying. He says he knows this must be hard. She says it’s harder for him, Brent’s been his best friend for a long time. Ryan talks about how his friendship with Brent was clichéd; no matter what Brent did he would always go along with it until her, “I wanted him to tell you about Willow”. He reveals he likes Shelby. She holds his hand, reciprocating.

The next morning Ryan wakes up next to Shelby kisses her and says he’ll get them some breakfast.

Audrey picks up Nathan for breakfast and can’t help but brainstorm because the mystery is still bothering her.

At Willow’s, Willow stands in the kitchen with a splitting headache. She’s surprised to see Ryan come out of Shelby’s room, “You and Shelby?” He nods, happily. Willow with her hands on her hips asks if it’s such a good idea she knows what happened with Brent she was there. She saw him turn into the Mountain Lion.

Act IV

Willow tells Ryan, “I’m not going to turn you in. Brent was a jerk but she’ll hate you if she finds out. She loved him and if you stay she will find out.” Ryan turns to the bedroom door upset he doesn’t want to leave her. Willows says “I’ll take care of her, I know you never meant any of this to happen and you want the best for her.” He nods, “Yeah.” tears in his eyes. He heads towards the bedroom, Willow asks, “what are you doing?” Ryan wants to say goodbye. Willow objects, “It will be easier if you don’t.” He goes inside the door, Willow’s upset, “Why does there have to be all this drama?” she says.

Inside the bedroom Shelby says, “I thought you were going to get breakfast.” He tells her he has to go. Shelby sits up in bed and asks what’s wrong. He turns to her and tells her “I never meant to put your life in danger and you won’t be safe until they catch who killed Brent.” With a sigh he says, “I did.” She looks at him angry. “You killed him.” She says upset. Suddenly on her back shoulder bone the four person circular tattoo appears and then vanishes just as it appeared. “I didn’t mean to. I was just so angry when I saw him with Willow and when I confronted him he didn’t even care.” Ryan tries to reach out to her and she tells him to “get away from me.”

As Audrey and Nathan leave breakfast Nathan comments that “Ryan obviously liked Shelby. You see the way he came running to her when she was in trouble.” Audrey just realizes this and says, “And he wasn’t surprised when we told Shelby that Brent had cheated on her.” She heads to his house realizing Ryan’s the Mountain Lion.

Audrey and Nathan pull up on the street as they hear shots fired and the roar of a Mountain Lion. They get to the house and hear more shots fired. They run inside the house, Willow holds a handgun at the Mountain Lion, which stands over Shelby’s mauled body. Audrey stops Willow. She speaks to the Lion says they can help him and he turns back into Ryan. He looks over to Shelby. She’s been mauled. He’s grief stricken, crying. “I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to.”

They take him outside in handcuffs, as they do shots are fired at him from the trees up the hill in front of the house. Audrey and Nathan find cover with Ryan.

Mr. Buckley movies to find a better place to shoot as he does. Dwight up on the hill runs down to Mr. Buckley and swipes him from behind telling Audrey through the walkie that it’s clear.

Audrey and Nathan take Ryan to the car.

Tag

Audrey and Nathan sit in the interrogation room with Ryan who’s forlorn. He confesses to killing the woman he loves. Audrey tells him she knows it’s hard now but they’ll going to try and make him better and that might make things a little bit better. Nathan puts his hands on him. When he pulls them down Audrey out of the corner of her mouth says, “That’s it.” He speaking out of the corner of his mouth says, “I think”. Audrey than tells Ryan they’ll find a new place for him. He’s upset he should go to prison for what he did and right there he turns into a Mountain Lion. Audrey and Nathan jump, luckily the cuff are still on his now paws so he can’t really move. “I didn’t heal him.” Nathan says upset and bolts out of the room.

Audrey leaves the interrogation room closing the door behind and goes to Dwight who saw Nathan leave. She says, “He needs to be angry.” Dwight, realizing the healing didn’t work says he’ll take care of Ryan. The guard will take good care of him revealing they have a new understanding, him and the guard. Audrey and Dwight look to the interrogation room where a mountain lion growls. He says, “We’ll take him later.” She nods and asks Dwight how he knew that Mr. Buckley would be on the hill. “He was a ranger like me and that’s what I would have done. I just didn’t know where on the hill.” She thanks him and tells him you could have asked for help looking. He nods saying he’s used to working alone.

Willow enters, worried about Ryan. Audrey assures her he’ll be okay and comment that she’s probably going to leave Haven now. She says, “I have the house. If you hear about anyone that needs records collated and filed I’m their girl.” Audrey then says, “I think we may actually have something. If you’re not scared by the troubles.” She shakes her head.

At The Gull Nathan drinks and complains that he can’t cure himself or remember who he is. Duke of all people misses the old Nathan, though he was a pain in the ass, and says, “maybe you should figure out who the new Nathan is, for instance do you like scotch” and they have a drink together. Nathan feels better. They’re closer.

At the morgue the next day the attendant tells them that Shelby wasn’t killed by a Mountain Lion. She has a shotgun wound. Dwight says he’ll make sure that Ryan knows this. But the coroner says there’s more, the shotgun wouldn’t have killed her and the claw marks are post-mortem. He can’t explain how she died. But there was a strange mark on her body, etched into the skin filled with blood. It looks like a fan with curved lines through it and a thick edge. Audrey flashes back, she’s seen the symbol before but can’t remember where. She tells them she knows the symbol but she doesn’t know from where, but wherever it is it’s not good – “I think this is just the beginning”.
