Episode Summary:

Episode Trivia:

• This was the final episode in the series created by Telltale. A few days before this episode released, Telltale had announced that they were filing for bankruptcy. A few weeks after this episode released, Skybound announced that they would be finishing the rest of the season.
• The title of this episode is a reference to the novel of the same name by author John Saul, which is about a child abductor who murders a girl but then returns a 100 years later to take out more children. I guess you can look at it as: child abductor = Lilly, deceased girl = Doug/Carley, and the new kids = Ericson’s.
• There is a Randy Tudor Easter egg if Clem decides to watch the stars with Violet. You can find a constellation of stars and if you connect them to each other, you’ll see a figure with a powerful stache that will wink at you before leaving. Click here to see a video of it.
