As the family tries everything from Ouiji boards to psychics for help, we learn of the house's original owners - the Jameson family - and how they came to join the Underground Railroad. Will Calico, Fast and Slow reach freedom and their mother in Canada or will they be caught by bounty hunters and sent back to slavery? And what does all this history have to do with the Williams' problem? And what does any of this have to do with the dead, poisoned dog in the oven?
