The next morning at breakfast, Victor has an announcement.
"Tyler is alright, everybody." He says.
"Yes!" Hunter smiles.
"Only 2 people can visit him today. Who wants to?" Trudy asks.
"Me!" Hunter shouts.
"And me!" Danya shouts.
"No! Me!" Elayna argues.
"You'll have to figure it out." Trudy smiles.

In Annika and Danya's room, Jamal, Danya and Elayna talk while Annika reads.
"I should visit him!" Elayna shouts.
"He's my friend!" Danya argues. "You're being very facetious."
"Don't use your fancy words." Elayna groans.
"It's in the dictionary!"
Annika stands. "A dictionary! The only place where yesterday always follows tomorrow! In a dictionary!"
"You're a genius!" Jamal shouts.
"Yeah, but.... I'm still out." Annika sits back down.
Jamal gives her the locket. "Sarah gave this to you. Not me."
"Oh, alright." Annika smiles.

At the hospital, Elayna and Hunter go to Tyler's room.
"Tyler!" Hunter smiles.
"Hunter!"
They hug.
"So, let's cut to the chase.....," Elayna says. "What did you see in the basement?"
"I don't remember." Tyler says.
"Oh." Elayna rolls her eyes. "Well, that's the only reason I came to see you so, bye!"
Elayna leaves.
"Rude." Tyler laughs.

At school, Mark goes to Mrs. Robinson in the halls.
"Can you be my trainer?" He asks. "Savanna kind of abandoned me."
"Sure!" She smiles. "I'd love to."

After school at Hades House, Annika, Jamal and Danya talk in Annika and Danya's room.
"We've been thinking about the clue." Jamal tells Danya.
"We think it's a Greek dictionary." Annika's explains. "So we got one. It's Beleathered and clasped! And look!"
She shows Danya the Greek dictionary and it has the Hades symbol on it.
"Oh!" Danya shouts. "Give me your locket!"
Danya takes the locket and puts it on the symbol.
It doesn't work.
"Let me try." Annika takes it and puts it on the symbol.
The book unclasps and opens up.
"It only works for Annika?" Danya realizes.
"Creepy." Jamal smirks.
In the dictionary, is nothing.

In the field, Savanna walks and sees Mark training with Mrs. Robinson.
Mark pushes Mrs. Robinson and they start laughing.
Savanna gets jealous and takes out her phone.
She takes pictures of Mark and Mrs. Robinson together.

At the hospital, Elayna walks the halls, heading for the exit.
She gasps when she sees Rufus sleeping in a wheelchair.
She goes to him. "Rufus!"
He wakes up. "Elayna?"
"I'm getting you out of here." Elayna rolls Rufus out of the hospital, sneaking past everybody.
She calls Annika. "Annika, I need your help."
