Back at Camp Chippewa, Amanda and the other girls in the cabin where telling each other ghost stories. They were all sitting on the floor while Lillith sat on a window seat wishing that she was with Wednesday rather than listening to the obnoxious teen girls. Amanda was holding a flashlight towards her face for a spooky effect but her giant retainer ruined the scary effect. "And then the ghost said 'And I will haunt you forever!'," Amanda exclaimed and the girls around her let out weak screams. Amanda then pointed the flashlight towards Lillith gaining her attention, "Lillith, you have to continue the ghost story." Lillith scoffed, "I'm not interested, thanks."

"Well, unless you want me to tell the counsellors that you aren't participating, I'd suggest you do it," Amanda warned knowing that Gary and Becky were all about participation and inclusiveness. Lillith groaned in irritation before getting up and storming over to them, she cleared her throat with a smirk. "And so the next night, the ghost returned to the haunted cabin and he said to the campers, 'You have proven to not fear me, you torment and mock me so I shall prove to you just what I can do.' And the next morning when the campers woke, they had all been transformed into digusting hags showing their true souls."

Using her magic, Lillith created the illusion of a ghost behind her along with an illusion that changed how all of the girls looked causing them all to scream and shriek in fear. It wasn't long before the girls were crying at the sight of their reflections, Lillith stood watching them with a proud smirk on her face. 'That's what you get for saying mean things about Wednesday and picking on Pugsley,' Lillith thought to herself as she made her way out of the cabin leaving the crying girls behind as the illusion faded out, however they were all too distraught to notice. As Lillith walked away from the cabin, someone reached out and pulled her into the shadows.

"Hey!" Lillith gasped before turning at the sound of Wednesday's familiar chuckle. "Easy, ma précieuse. It's just me," Wednesday whispered as he slipped his hands down her sides onto her hips to pull her closer to him in the shadows. "I saw what you did in there to the girls," Wednesday told her before leaning closer, "Have I ever told you that you are so beautiful to watch when you're traumatising over privileged girls?" Lillith grinned as she slid her hands from Wednesday's chest to around his shoulders until they stopped on the nape of his neck, "Maybe you have, maybe you haven't. I love hearing it either way."

Wednesday leaned down and captured her lips with his own, his right arm slipped around her lower back to hold her flush against him while his left hand held the back of her head allowing him to deepen the kiss he had so badly desired all day. Wednesday turned them around so he could lean Lillith back against the wall behind them, he lifted her up from beneath her thighs so that he didn't need to lean down and purely because he wanted to feel her body against his own in their limited time together. Wednesday pulled away and began kissing down her jaw as Lillith tipped her head back, tightening her legs around his waist in the process.

"Ma précieuse," Wednesday purred into Lillith's ear making her shiver in delight before she cupped his face in her hands and pulled his head to capture his lips. The two continued to passionately make out until Pugsley warned them that the camp counsellors were walking around to tell everyone lights out. Wednesday had placed Lillith down feeling proud of the marks he left littered on Lillith's neck and collarbone, he kissed her goodnight before they went their separate ways having to sleep apart for the second time since before they had first met each other. Lillith didn't sleep well that night, she was haunted by unpleasant dreams that left her tossing and turning.

Elsewhere, Fester and Debbie were walking together through the family graveyard. The two kept stealing awkward glances at each other since they returned from the double date and neither of them had spoken a word to one another. That was until Debbie suddenly pressed herself up against one of the graves crying out, "Oh, Fester, how you must hate me!" Fester turned to her confused, "What?" She frowned dramatically, "Here you are, a debonair man of the world, how... I must bore you!" Fester gasped loudly, "Never!" Debbie sighed dejectedly, "Fester, before we go any further, I have a confession. Something I must tell you."

She dramatically sat down on a stone bench, "I'm a virgin!" Fester creased his forehead wrinkles, "You are? What's that?" Debbie looked at Fester shocked but quickly recovered as she spoke, "I-It's someone whose never experienced... physical love." Fester was silent for a moment before realising, "Oh! You mean with another person." Debbie nodded at his response. "Then Debbie, I have a confession to make as well. I'm one too," Fester confessed to her. "You?" Debbie asked feigning surprise. "Yes!" Fester exclaimed. "With your looks, your charm, women must follow you everywhere!" Debbie responded to him in disbelief. "Store detectives," Fester replied.

"Oh, Fester! I always dreamed of meeting someone untouched, someone pure, someone just like you," Debbie expressed in a tone of praise. "You'll meet him," Fester obliviously told her with a frown. "And... and I dreamed that when I met him, that we would wait until our wedding night to give ourselves to one another, to make the ultimate sacrifice," Debbie purred. "A goat?" Fester questioned causing Debbie to give him a weird look before she continued, "Until now, I thought it was impossible. But Fester Addams, I love you!" Fester looked at her in disbelief as he whispered, "You do?"

"Please, be brutally honest, I have to know how you feel about me!" Debbie pleaded with Fester dramatically. "I love you! I worship you! I'd do anything for you! I'd pay!" Fester proclaimed happily. "Fester!" Debbie cheered as she spread her arms wide for him. "Debbie!" Fester hugged her back and the two cuddled into each other on the stone bench. A small distance away, the statue of Elnina Addams watched the two with disdain, she did not like the woman nor did she see the love that she saw in Morticia and Gomez or the love in Lillith and Wednesday. She knew the woman that Debbie was and she hoped they would learn before it would be too late.

"Look at him," Gomez cooed looking down at his youngest son. "So peaceful," Morticia added with a smile, Pubert sleeping soundly in his bed cuddling with the three-headed dog plush that Lillith had given him and a muzzle covering his face. "This evening as I watched Fester and Debbie, I kept my fingers crossed. I hoped," Gomez admitted to his wife. "I prayed," Morticia replied softly with her own smile. "Let them fall in love," Gomez said with a sigh of relief. "Let them know happiness," Morticia told him, she was happy for her brother-in-law. "Let them adopt," Gomez added just before Fester burst through the doors with excitement.

"Gomez, Morticia! Great news! Something impossible, a miracle!" Fester exclaimed loud and proud. "The rash!" Gomez exclaimed in response. "It's gone?" Morticia asked him. "I'm engaged," Fester told them happily. Debbie then entered the room wearing a large diamond ring on her left hand, a wide smile on her face. "That ring," Morticia expressed. "It was our mothers. She was buried with it," Gomez explained. Debbie held up a shovel and smiled sinisterly, she had managed to take the first step and now her plan was finally in play. Meanwhile, Fester was ecstatic at the knowledge he had finally found his one love just like Gomez and Wednesday.

The next day at camp, the door to the girls' cabin swung open allowing Gary and Becky to walk in carrying mail. "Mail call! Addams!" Gary placed a letter on Lillith's bed where she was sitting with her back to Wednesday's chest as Pugsley sat on the edge of the bed messing with something. Wednesday eagerly opened the letter and read it to himself, he sat up straighter with wide eyes prompting Lillith to move allowing him to stand up. "Oh no," Wednesday exclaimed looking at his love and brother. "What is it?" Lillith asked him, Pugsley watching in interest too. "This is unspeakable!" Wednesday replied shocked.

"Is something wrong Wednesday? Bad news?" Becky asked noticing the boys distress. "This is the worst thing that has ever happened in the history of human events," Wednesday exclaimed before turning back to Lillith and Pugsley who had both stood up preparing for the worst. "Uncle Fester is getting married," Wednesday told the two, both were wide eyed by the news and completely stunned. "A wedding? That's great news!" Gary exclaimed with an over the top smile. "To who?" Nosy Amanda asked, her eyes narrowed in a glare due to Lillith's story the night before.

"The Nanny," Wednesday replied. "Get out of the cabin!" Amanda exclaimed as though it was some popular metaphor, "I mean, I'd kill myself! The help?!" Lillith turned her head to glare harshly at the girl, while she absolutely did not like Debbie, that didn't mean she was against the concept of someone falling in love with their workers or help as Amanda so snobbishly proclaimed. "I'm sure she's a very nice lady," Becky defended making Lillith snort. "I think that's disgusting. I think their whole family's like some weird medical experiment. I think they're like... circus people!" Amanda exclaimed, "And I think she's one of their personal experiments gone wrong! Just look at her, she isn't supermodel pretty but she isn't ugly either."

Lillith scoffed at what Amanda said but Amanda's next words triggered her, "I bet he made her because he knew he would be lonely forever! He probably brainwashed her!" Lillith stepped forward with glowing red eyes that made the others step back and gasp, "I love Wednesday, brat. He didn't make me and I'm not some experiment." Wednesday slipped his arms around her and pulled her back though he was just as angered by the girls words, how dare she speak so low of his Queen? She was a Goddess of the night, not some freak or experiment. He couldn't create something so human, so beautiful, so perfect. She was his dark blessing and no bratty bitch would claim otherwise.

"Don't speak about her like that!" Pugsley added with a harsh glare, he stepped forward ready to defend her. "Don't ever talk about her like that again," Wednesday threatened, his eyes filling with the dark abyss as a warning causing some of the girls to start praying. "Campers!" Becky loudly clapped her hands, "Group hug!" Everyone in the cabin except for Wednesday, Lillith and Pugsley joined in for the hug. The two Addams brothers backed away as if the other campers were the plague, Lillith backed up to stand in front of Wednesday to calm both him and herself down before she left the camp a massacre.

Gary left the embrace and approached the three teenagers who had backed away from it. "Wednesday, Pugsley, Lillith... will a hug hurt us?" Gary asked them. "We don't hug," Pugsley told him. "I only hug Lillith," Wednesday emphasised. "If I join that hug, I will murder you all," Lillith warned making Gary gulp fearfully. "Oh, they're just being shy," Becky reasoned. "We're not shy," Pugsley argued. "We're contagious," Wednesday corrected the woman. Becky and Gary stood in their awkward silence before Gary spoke, "I'm sensing some friction here. Something not quite Chippewa." The rest of the campers nodded in agreement with his words.

"But it ain't no problemo. All they need are good friends, good fun, and... a little time in the Harmony Hut," Gary announced cheerfully. The three were forcefully lured to a small shack that had many positive posters all over the walls, stuffed animals everywhere and bright floral furniture that made Lillith feel sick; she couldn't imagine how it made Wednesday or Pugsley feel. Pugsley sat down on the main couch in front of a television while Wednesday had walked over to the only piece of furniture that wasn't brightly designed, the dark grey armchair sat against the wall behind the couch out of view of windows and the door.

Lillith followed him and immediately sat down on his lap, Wednesday wrapped his arms around her waist positioning her so she was sat with her back against the arm of the chair. "How long do we have to stay in here?" Pugsley whined. "Until we crack," Wednesday answered resting his head on Lillith's shoulder, enjoying the feeling of her fingers running through his raven hair. Pugsley lowered his head in defeat as the door was opened and Gary shoved Joel into the room, Shane soon following causing Wednesday to tighten his hold on Lillith. "Have fun!" Gary encouraged closing the door.

"What are you in for?" Lillith asked the two new faces in the Harmony Hut. "I wouldn't, uh, go horseback riding," Joel answered though the nerdy boy was shocked at the fact that someone as pretty as Lillith would be talking to him. "I refused to participate in any of their plans," Shane said as he leaned against the wall, he was trying too hard to act bad and nonchalant about the whole thing and Wednesday knew it. "Why?" Wednesday asked diverting his attention to Joel while ignoring Shane. "I just wanted to read," Joel mumbled as he gestured to his book. Gary opened the door and snatched the book from his hands, "Not on my time, four-eyes!" He laughed and closed the door, Shane chuckled too.

Joel sighed and looked up before letting out a horrified scream at the sight of a Michael Jackson on the wall. Lillith smirked before holding out her hand, she focused on her energy before muttering a Latin spell causing Joel's book to manifest into her palm. "Here, read your book," Lillith held out the book to the boy who took it, his eyes wide in shock at what he witnessed. "Are you a pureblood witch?" Joel asked as he sat down next to Pugsley. "I am, pretty cool, huh?" Lillith bragged. "Very," Joel replied in awe before noticing Wednesday's glare, he cleared his throat and turned around to read his book, "Thanks..." Lillith smiled before turning to Wednesday.
