She has two fathers now, but she can’t keep playing them off each other to her own advantage using Ryan for her investigations with no context doesn’t do anyone any good. I’m glad Ryan confronted Nancy about her treatment because it was a long time coming. Nancy also needs to face her father’s issues head-on too.
It’s time they part ways and remove the family from his life. Look, Ace might like Amanda, but it’s clear the risk is too dangerous and he’s not fully into the relationship. Amanda’s dad knew exactly what he was doing and how it would affect Ace he didn’t care that his actions could hurt his daughter’s boyfriend. The last thing he needed to do was be implicated in crimes he had no part in-Amanda’s dad was on probation/parole, so he’d get in more trouble if caught. Ace made the right call by shutting him down and refusing to get involved. One of Ace’s biggest hurdles came from Amanda’s sketchy dad. Nancy Drew shouldn’t do anything to tear up Nancy and Ace before they’ve had a chance to get together, even if it’s for magical comedy relief. Thankfully, the chaos was resolved quickly and Ace survived. If this were a darker show, Ace would’ve been hurt more than just a sore eye.
His accidents felt like scenes from Final Destination-we didn’t know what bad stuff would happen, but the trouble was bound to happen. Just look at the cat’s glowing eyes! (There’s evil coming up in Horseshoe Bay.) Colin Bentley/The CWĪce’s mishaps at The Claw were funny and very reminiscent of the Drew Crew’s time dealing with the Aglaeca. Whatever spells she’s conducting, she’s no doubt up to no good. Temperance could be using the opportunity to manipulate Bess’s magic, which might start her re-establishing a coven or achieving her dark goals. And going to work with Temperance could be the most dangerous risk of all. She wouldn’t have known if the spell would work or not after two years of dealing with poltergeists, toying with rituals wasn’t the smartest idea.
Her heart was in the right place by creating the protection spell for Ace, but she was very inexperienced in magic. Speaking of magic, Bess needs to watch her back while working with Temperance. Plus, the true-crime angle with the Alaskan killer could be a red-herring to throw us all off. Nancy Drew had been more focused on the paranormal and ghosts in the earlier seasons, but magic brings the story closer to Horseshoe Bay’s secrets and their town traditions. It’s an interesting angle that might change the relationships and tone we’ve seen in the past. Or, someone dabbling in “magic” to clean it up. Possibly this could be a separate entity trying to use the hearts to stop Temperance and take back the town. Witchcraft and magic seem to be an emerging theme in Nancy Drew Season 3, especially with the protection rituals and Temperance aiding in the investigation. I’m still leaning on the side that Temperance Hudson is involved in these murders somehow. Why would the killer destroy the hearts after taking them? Was it to cover up their crimes? For us as viewers, Nancy’s covert break-in did give us a lead as it confirmed that the killer is still in town and they were burning the evidence (i.e., the hearts). It will be a miracle if the police are able to use any of that evidence or house in their case. However, sneaking into the house and setting off the nail bomb caused a lot of chaos. When will Nancy learn to work with the police instead of going rogue? These issues would happen less and less if she did.īeing the community liaison should give her some leeway to work with the detectives, which it did as it led her to a break in the case. “The Journey of the Dangerous Mind” was that episode, and now that biggest piece of evidence that could’ve solved the mystery will be inadmissible in the court of law. If there’s one thing we can count on, it’s that Nancy makes a rash decision that throws a huge hurdle into the investigation. The hunt for “The Frozen Heart Killer” (name pending) took us to another classic Nancy Drew plot trope.
