Summary

This episode follows two parallel narratives: Miranda, a recently turned vampire, faces escalating hunger and the grim reality of her past actions as she stows away in a work van to return to Knoxville. Simultaneously, Denise and her friends embark on a road trip to the same city for a concert, navigating personal anxieties and road trip mishaps. Their worlds collide at a gas station, leading to a fateful encounter that promises a dramatic convergence of their stories.

CW: Descriptions of a messy, unsanitary vehicle, automotive sounds, discussion of existential uncertainty, reflection on the death of a partner, references to urination, death by vampire, sexual themes, discussion of vampire violence, references to alcohol and drug use, cheesy answering machine outgoing message.
