Owen and Jeremy discuss the purpose of Nemesis over breakfast. She tells Owen that finding the murderer won’t change things. Owen is upset and angrily disagrees. He accuses Jeremy of not caring because her life is going well now that she has friends. Jeremy leaves and stays in her room during dinner. Owen assumes she is still angry and watches Nemesis all evening. Before bed, Owen gets a short ghost signal.
At school the next day, Owen researches the timing of the information from the signal he received when he sees Mason. He mentions the day before when he followed Mason and feels like a bully. The next time he looks at Mason, Owen notes that he looks normal from a certain angle. He then warns Mason about Mr. Wooly’s plans for revenge against them.
Feeling nauseous, Owen heads to the boys bathroom and reflects about the upcoming gym class competition on Friday. While thinking, Owen looks up at the water pipes in the ceiling and spots his lunch sack hanging from a wire. He decides that Izzy must be the cookie thief based on his height.
