Recap / Nancy Drew S 2 E 7 The Legend Of The Murder Hotel

Go To

Nancy is approached by a group of college girls asking for help in finding a volleyball teammate they believe was kidnapped by a ghost. Meanwhile, Ace and Amanda share a moment.


Tropes:

  • The Bus Came Back: Amanda Bobbsey makes her return as the receptionist at the Breaker Hotel.
  • Dutch Angle: When Odette takes over after Nancy burns the letter, the camera tilt is how we know.
  • Lethal Chef: "Ugh! Zoe! You don't cook pancakes in the oven!"
  • Properly Paranoid: Nancy has been dealing with some dangerous local legends, one of which almost killed her and all of her friends and which did manage to kill one of them (She Got Better), so of course she's done some research and immediately recognizes Room 413 of the Breaker Hotel.
  • Real After All: Nancy tries to keep it grounded for as long as she can, but has to conclude it's the ghost of the Breaker Hotel when the window starts bleeding. Further investigation reveals that, no, that's just a trick by the hotel to drum up business, the girl just freaked out, ran away from the ghost... then ran away from her friends because she's having trouble with college.
  • Seen It All: "Ghost abduction, that would have been like my third guess."
  • Sequel Hook: The episode ends with a British man checking in to the Breaker Hotel, says he's looking for his wife, with a picture of Bess on his phone.
  • Shown Their Work: States have been cracking down on hazing; 44 have passed laws against it.
