Tell him we miss him too.
ZOEY: We need to know the secret they're keeping from us,

Griffin?
HARPER: The judge is out to destroy our family.
-(Sarah screams) -(vase shatters)
Come at me! (grunts, screams)
Always nice to have the local sheriff as a friend.
GRIFFIN: Judge Walker invested his own money,
then convinced his rich friends to do it too.
HARPER: All so he could scam them out of their savings.
GRIFFIN: Someone must have figured out the judge was behind it all.
I'm gonna stop Judge Walker once and for all.
HARPER: Oh, Ruby, what have you done?
(tense music playing)
(light switch clicks)
Oh, sorry.
I didn't mean to scare you. (chuckles)
What happened?
Uh, nothing. I-I was just straightening up and it...
fell.

That's--

We both saw her running out of here alone.
Who else could it have been?
I don't know.
But we should probably go after her, and quick,

So, Daisy must have covered up what Ruby did.
And no one ever found out what really happened
to the judge here in 1947.
The paper just said he disappeared.
I mean, everyone in town must have
eventually assumed he just ran off.
With their stolen money.
Uh, maybe that's why the ghost is so angry,
because no one knows the truth about how he died.
Sounds like unfinished business to me.
Yeah, me too.
But how do we use that information to get rid of him?

It's a mistake. It has to be.

No. No.
Did you see the date on the tombstone?
2020.
That means Griffin could just have a few months,

or days.
Or it's already too late.
We can't think like that.
We just have to find Griffin and Harper
and tell them what we saw.
"Lives are at stake."
That's what Griffin told us.
He was talking about himself.
No, he wasn't.
The future we just saw, it changed somehow.
Before, it was... someone else in danger.
Well, come on. Don't leave us hanging.
Who was it?
Well... you, actually.

Hey, a little help here?
He just found out he was going to wind up in a coma.

Savannah? Shouldn't you be back in 1962?
Uh... about that.
I was going to go home, eventually,
but then I saw these guys headed to the future,
so I decided to follow them instead.
The future?
We asked you guys not to use the time machine!
Okay? The future's dangerous!
Trust us, we know that.
Were you never gonna mention the whole,
"me being in a coma" thing?
HARPER: I'm sorry, Topher.
I thought maybe you'd never have to know
if we could prevent that future from happening.
Well, on that front, we have some good news,
and some... not-so-good news.
In the future we just saw, Topher's fine.

Not.
-Wha-- -You die, Griffin.
And soon.
We saw your tombstone.
What?
N-No, no, but that-- that's--
Not possible.
Unless...
The ghost. We were right. He has been speeding things up.
What if he's changing things, too,
making the future even worse?
ZOEY: I still don't get it.
Savannah told us about this Judge Walker guy.
But why would he want to hurt Griffin?
He's lashing out in anger, and now we think we know why.
Right. We can't talk about it here.
More secrets? Really?
Well, we'll tell you guys everything,
just not in the hotel.

we should probably get upstairs.
Savannah, why don't you hide out down here?
Good idea. Come get me if you need me.

I see you've already picked out a spot to lay low.
Nice, right?
Unless... is this your new hiding spot?
Don't worry about it.
I have my own ways of, uh, staying outta sight.
I forgot you know all this place's secrets.
Not all, but enough.
Cookies for dinner?
Yeah. Baked to last an eternity.

Listen to me.
It's not going to happen. We won't let it.
Yeah, well, part of me just wants to travel to 2024.

I have some insight on how he thinks.

It just doesn't make any sense.

Not-- Not that I want him to, obviously, but--
No. I know.

If?
I didn't wanna bring it up before, because I wasn't sure,

I thought I felt someone in room 205 with us.
I figured I was just being paranoid,
and then we heard Ruby confess.
Did we though?
I mean, she didn't actually say she did anything.
You're right.
