5 top takeaways from the Nancy Drew Season 1, Episode 18 promo and synopsis

Nancy Drew Season 1, Episode 18 marks the unexpected season finale. Here are the top takeaways for the episode from the promo and synopsis.

Like many other TV shows, production on Nancy Drew was shut down earlier than expected because of the novel coronavirus. Now we’re getting a finale that wasn’t supposed to be a finale. Fortunately for us, there is a second season confirmed. We can go into Nancy Drew Season 1, Episode 18 knowing we’ll eventually get answers to our burning questions.

The promo and synopsis give us a hint of things to come for the Drew Crew during the episode. Things aren’t great, as they continue to fight against the Aglaeca, the sea spirit that is after its toll.

Before we get into the breakdown of the promo and synopsis, you’ll want to take a look at them. After that, we’re about to get into some teases for the Nancy Drew Season 1 finale.

"Nancy (Kennedy McMann) and the Drew Crew investigate a mysterious death which also leads to new details regarding the Aglaeca curse."

5. There’s a new murder investigation

By the looks of the synopsis, there’s another murder investigation. Will this just be Owen’s murder investigation or is there someone else involved? It’s hard to tell.

We believe right now that Owen was murdered by the Aglaeca. However, the promo says that the murderer may have been human. That’s a surprise to all considering recent events. So, does it actually mean that someone else has been murdered in this small town?

4. Ryan is fully involved

Ryan and Owen weren’t exactly friends. While Ryan wanted to bury the hatchet, it’s clear that Owen still didn’t like the guy. Despite all this, Ryan is involved in figuring out who murdered Owen.

Is this a way to get close to Nancy? He wants to know his daughter, but is this really the right way to go?

3. Everyone is in danger

It almost sounds like the Aglaeca didn’t actually get the toll that she wanted. Did someone else kill Owen for revenge? Has the Aglaeca lost out on a soul?

During the promo, everyone knows that they’re in danger. If the Aglaeca isn’t paid her toll then everyone will die at once. It looks like everyone is in trouble.

2. They need to figure out who the Aglaeca was

At the end of the previous episode, the Drew Crew learned the Aglaeca was someone who died a traumatic death. Maybe they need to figure out who her murderer was. Of course, they need to figure out who she was first.

We knew as they were investigating Lucy and Tiffany’s deaths that there were more ghosts in the town. This is the first for the Drew Crew to move onto.

1. There’s a lot of trust issues

It’s going to be hard to get things done with all the trust issues. Nancy and Ryan have their own issues, just like Nancy and Carson. But what about the rest of the Drew Crew? They learned during an argument that Ryan is Nancy’s biological father.

There are going to be a lot of questions. Can they put their trust issues to one side to solve Owen’s murder?
