S1E7 — "All Good Things"

Air date: March 20, 2022 · Writer: Vivian Lee and John Griffin · Director: Jennifer Liao

Synopsis

Father Khatri tells Boyd Stevens about Sara Myers and the voices, and suggests that he and Sara join Boyd's planned expedition into the woods. Jim Matthews proposes building a proper radio tower using most of the town's resources, while he and Tabitha Matthews continue digging in their basement. Jade Herrera finds a photograph inside the discarded notebook, and Tian-Chen Liu identifies a young Victor Kavanaugh in it.

At Colony House, residents celebrate the first anniversary of Fatima Hassan's arrival. During the party, Fatima kisses another resident, making Julie Matthews uncomfortable. Kevin opens a window for his "friend" — the creature he has been courting — and she kills him, leaving the window open for others to pour through. The creatures swarm Colony House, killing many residents while some escape in a van. Ellis Stevens and Fatima survive by barricading themselves in the foyer behind a talisman.

Victor Kavanaugh and Julie flee into the woods, where Victor tells Julie to enter a faraway tree; she is transported to a root cellar. The van reaches the sheriff's station as Boyd and Khatri let the survivors in — but a creature kills Khatri before the doors close.
