Episode Summary
The episode starts with a neighbor of the Martin house, Clara, calling her friend Nola. Through the entire episode, Clara yells at Nola for not coming over; she gets scared at night by herself, and Nola was meant to come stay with her. Clara hears strange singing and sees a woman with sharp teeth in the attic window of the Martin house, making threatening gestures (hello, Mabel, hello, hello) at her and laughing. Besides Clara, other voicemails also come in-- several from Mona, Anna's sister, trying to get her to pick up her phone; eventually, a cop, Officer Jameson, calls Anna to check in. Doctor Yulia Antonova, from the hospital Sally stayed at, calls Anna to have a chat. Lastly, one of Mabel's old friends, Lauren, and her sister, Justine, call Mabel to try to see if she wants to catch up, as they're in town for their mutual friend Takao's wedding. The last part of the episode includes strange singing and two (ridiculous dweeb) girls laughing.

Trivia
'''Please note that this section contains spoilers for later episodes of Mabel. Continue at your own risk.'''


 * Justine and Lauren mention someone named Korina, presumably Mabel's ex-girlfriend.
 * Lauren says they can go get coffee; this may be a very tiny nod to them not knowing much about Mabel at all, because she doesn't drink coffee. (The author only knows this because they have Reverie half-memorized).
 * Mona asks for someone named Patrick to help her; presumably, this is her partner, and possibly Aaron Jenkins's father.
