With time running out before Carson’s evidentiary hearing, Nancy turns to supernatural sources in a last-ditch effort to find clues to exonerate her father.

Nancy runs into an old friend who is in town directing a remake of a horror film called “Longhook,” where strange things are happening on set. She’s hoping that solving a new case will help get her out of her funk, and a worried Ryan offers to help Nancy since he is a self-proclaimed expert on the original version of the film. Meanwhile, Ace helps Bess rehearse for her role as Victim #1 in the movie. Lastly, George and Nick discover that they were both stood up for meetings by councilwoman, Brie, which gives them both an uneasy feeling.

Nancy sends a group text to the Drew Crew asking them to meet her at The Claw ASAP. Meanwhile, Ace’s dad tries to get him to open up about Nancy. Lastly, Carson makes plans with Nancy to mark the one-year anniversary of losing her mom.
