Wednesday finds them in the school swimming pool and releases two bags of red-bellied piranhas into the pool. She then watches with pure fascination and delight as the piranhas attack the boys in the water.
Wednesday is driving to Nevermore, which her parents think is the perfect school for her. Wednesday thinks they are taking her there to live out some sort of legacy they left in the school.
Morticia’s mom insists that they take her to the new school because it is a place where her peers can understand her. A magical place like no other. There is also the fact that Wednesday was almost charged with attempted murder after what she did to the bullies in her former school.
Wednesday is excited to finally be able to go to therapy. She is worried about her mental health, but Larissa assures her that they have a certified therapist and she can meet with Wednesday twice a week.
The principal assigns Wednesday to her mother’s old dorm, Ophelia Hall, and takes them to meet Wednesday’s new roommate. Enid Sinclair is a bubbly girl and is excited to meet her new roommate and take her on a tour of the school. Wednesday is not interested in learning much about the place as she has no plans of staying long in the school.
Wednesday is quick to bring up the rumours about her brush with the law in her former school. Of course, Wednesday calmly confirms the rumours to be true. Wednesday still shows Wednesday around and tells her about the school’s social cliques which are divided into four groups: fangs, furs, stones, and scales. ..
The family bids Wednesday goodbye and Morticia warns her about planning to escape the school. Wednesday believes her mom underestimates her and vows to leave the educational penitentiary that they have enrolled her in. Her mother tells her that she is brilliant but she sometimes gets in her way. She leaves her a little parting gift, a pendant made of obsidian, and a crystal ball to contact her on. Her dad leaves her another gift, a piece of a hand to secretly watch over her.
A sheriff and another officer discovered human remains in the woods near Nevermore. According to the female officer, there have been two other similar attacks a week before. The Sheriff wants to issue a warning to keep hikers off the woods and blame the bears. He knows that it was not a bear that attacked the hikers and thinks the murders are connected to Nevermore. Unfortunately, he has no evidence yet so he will be sticking to the bear attack story for now. ..
Wednesday has a hard time settling in at the school. She makes a new enemy with the school’s queen B the next morning. She gets hurt and makes a new friend, Rowan. She nearly dies when a gargoyle almost falls on her but luckily, Xavier saves her. He is returning a favour when Wednesday saved his life when they were ten.
Later that day, Wednesday noticed her dad’s gift sitting on her bed. She knew Thing would be the perfect companion to help her escape from school, so she ordered him to do so. ..
Principal Larissa drives her to her therapist appointment, but Wednesday escapes through the toilet window and heads to the nearest cafe across the street to get information on how to leave the town. ..
She runs into a man on the street and has a vision of his death. The man is rude to her so she decides he isn’t worth saving. In the cafe, she meets Tyler and makes a deal with him. She will fix his coffee machine and he calls a taxi for her. Tyler offers to drive her himself but she has to wait for an hour. She tries to bribe him with money but he says he can’t be bought. She decides to wait for him. ..
As she waits, three boys visit the cafe and start harassing her. She fights back and floors them with her fighting skills. Soon after the fight, the Sheriff drops in at the cafe and is shocked to see that she fought off three boys. He asks Tyler(his son) if he helped her but he says no.
Wednesday is excited to see her principal and the sheriff. They tell her that Gomez Addams is a murderer and that she should stop making enemies. Wednesday is happy to hear this and agrees to make friends.
At school, Enid and Wednesday get close and she asks Enid for a favour to use her computer. She sends Thing to Tyler with a message to call her. She recruits Tyler to help her escape during the harvest festival. It is not easy to lose Principal Larissa who is keeping a close eye on her.
She wakes up in a hospital bed, her head throbbing and her body covered in bandages. She can’t remember what happened but she knows that she was hit by a car. Tyler is there with her and they tell her that they found the report on her father - he was killed in a car accident. They also tell her that Rowan is behind bars and that he will be released soon.
She tries to save him but he is trying to kill her because of a prophecy his mom had 25 years ago. A creature appears from nowhere and saves her by killing Rowan.
At the end of the day, her parents called and she reluctantly admitted that she loved being in school. ..
