Summary
As part of a chat unlock, this episode is a special haunted house episode. Dahlia is assigned to one of the long hallways as a spectre that chases people from one room to another. Meanwhile, the rest of the School Safety Squad will be going through the haunted house to support Dahlia, whether they are fond of haunted houses, like Lenny, or not, like Kwame. Naniko and Spiro also tag along. As they pass through each section of the haunted house, there are scares abound, but a certain door to Oblivion that pops up through a camera viewer quickly grabs the group's attention, and they seek out Dahlia to investigate a way they can interact with the door to close it. But as soon as Lenny tries to push the door closed, a giant stone creature, the Rook (like the chess piece) comes out, and an intense battle ensues, before Kwame deals it the final strike. Suddenly, they enter some sort of vision that takes them to North Point Cemetery, where they are surrounded by keys of divinity. They see Orpheus and Loki disappearing, and the King in White and another figure seemingly creating new crows. Finally, they find themselves back at the gym where the haunted house is, left to contemplate what they just saw.
