Summary

The Watchtower crew investigates what brought their unexpected guest to their doorstep - and what he might've brought with him in the process. Roger borrows something, hearing an old voice and some new ones, too. Bertie tries to be assertive. Kate has her doubts about ventriloquism. Etta must choose between being scared and asking important questions. 

And Persnickety Pete has something he'd like to say.

This episode contains mentions of poison, blood, and possible death by fire. It also uses some disembodied whispering.

Persnickety Pete's Message was composed and performed by Jake Hull.

Some sound effects provided by Dead Signals, creators of the Archive 81 and The Deep Vault podcasts.
