Graham is playing darts at Granny's diner. He throws two darts and hits the deer both times. Melissa was feeding Jenna some Mac and cheese. Ruby is waiting tables and Sidney is sitting in one of the booths.
"Nice shot, chief. I bet you twenty bucks you can't do it again." Sydney said
Graham throws another dart and hits the deer again.
"Next round's on him." Graham said
Emma enters through another door.
"Emma! What can I get you?" Ruby asked Emma
"Nothing. (Emma walks towards the diner's exit. Graham throws a dart in her direction, which lands right next to her head.) What the hell? You could've hit me!" Emma said
"I never miss. Both you and Melissa been avoiding me since last night, when you both saw me-" Graham said as Emma finishes his sentence
"Leaving the Mayor? And yes, that is a euphemism. I'm not avoiding you, Graham, and neither is Melissa. We just have no interest in having this conversation. It's your life." Emma said
Emma leaves the diner and Graham follows her outside.
"You think Graham like's her?" Melissa asked Ruby
"As in like her like her?" Ruby asked Melissa
"Yep." Melissa said
"I think he does." Ruby said
The next day.
Both Emma and Melissa is at the station. She places a file on Graham's desk and Emma picks up a dart. She throws it at the dart board, but misses the board entirely. Emma goes to pick up the dart as Regina walks in.
"Our taxes always hard at work, I see." Regina said
"Graham isn't here." Emma said
"We assumed he took a sick day – with you." Melissa said
"Oh, so both of you are aware of us? Good – that's why I'm here. Because I'm also aware of your relationship with him Miss Swan." Regina said
"I don't have a relationship with him." Emma said
"Oh? So, nothing's ever happened between the two of you? You forget, Miss Swan – I have eyes everywhere." Regina said
"Nothing that meant anything." Emma said
"Well, of course not. Because you're incapable of feeling anything for anyone. There's a reason you're alone, isn't there?" Regina asked Emma
"All due respect, the way she live her own life is her business." Melissa said
"It is until it infringes on my life. Miss Swan stay away from Graham. You may think you're doing nothing, but you're putting thoughts in his head. Thoughts that are not in his best interest. You are leading him on a path to self-destruction. Stay away." Regina said
Both Emma and Melissa is waiting outside the Mayor's house. When Graham comes out, they confront him.
"Hear you're having a rough day." Melissa said
"Who says?" Graham asked Melissa
"Pretty much everyone." Emma said
"We think maybe you need to go home and get some rest." Melissa said
"I'm fine." Graham said
"You're not fine." Melissa said
"You just went to see a ten year old for help." Emma said
"He's the only one making any sense." Graham said
"What's really going on?" Margaret asked Graham
"It's my heart. I need to find it." Graham said
"Okay. So, how are you going to do that?" Emma asked Graham
"I just need to follow the wolf." Graham said
"What?" Emma asked in confusion
"What wolf?" Margaret asked again
"From my dreams. It's going to help me find my heart." Graham said
"I'm sorry. We thought we were talking in a metaphor here. You really think you don't have a heart?" Emma asked again
"It's the only thing that makes any sense. It's the only thing that explains why I don't feel anything." Graham said
"Listen to me, Graham. You have a heart. And I can prove it. (Emma puts her hand on Graham's chest.) See? It's beating. It's real. (He shakes his head. She grabs his hand and places it where her hand previously was.) Feel that? That is your heart." Emma said
"No. It's the curse." Graham said
"Maybe there's a curse. Maybe there isn't one." Melissa said
Both Emma and Melissa suddenly stares at something behind Graham.
"What?" Graham asked in confusion
Behind them, is the wolf with the two differently colored eyes. It runs away and they follow it.
They follow the wolf to a graveyard.
"Graham!" Emma said
"Graham, be careful." Melissa said
"He's my friend. He won't hurt us." Graham said
The wolf stops and howls briefly, then runs farther into the graveyard. They follow. They eventually lose sight of the wolf. Melissa tries to use her hearing ability to hear a howl, but the wolf ended up stopping in front of a crypt. Graham looks up and sees the symbol from his flashback.
"What is it?" Emma asked Graham
"It's my heart. It's in there. (Graham takes out a flashlight.) I have to look in there." Graham said
"Oh, no! Stop. Stop." Melissa said
"I have to get in there, please-" Graham said as Melissa interrupt his sentence
"Graham, come on!" Melissa said
"You really think that your heart is in there? (Graham nods.) Okay. Let's find out. (Emma tries to open the doors of the crypt, but they're locked.) Come on! (Melissa kicks open one of the doors and they enter.) How the hell did you do that?" Emma asked Melissa
"My ex boyfriend taught me some stuff." Melissa said
"Of course he did. You want to share?" Emma asked her again
"Seriously? You want to talk about my ex?" Melissa asked Emma
"Sorry. If you don't want to talk about your ex, then I completely understand." Emma said
The three of them sees a sarcophagus in the center with several urns on shelves lining the walls.
"It's got to be in here. Somewhere. (Graham begins to scan the walls of the crypt.) There's got to be a hidden door. A lever. (He checks one of the urns.)Something." Graham said
"Graham, there's nothing in here." Melissa said
"There has to be. If there isn't, then-" Graham said as Emma interrupt his words
"It's okay. It's going to be okay." Emma said
Regina, who is standing outside the entrance, yells to them.
"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Regina asked them
Emma, Melissa, and Graham exit the crypt.
"What are you doing here?" Melissa asked Regina
"Bringing flowers to my father's grave like I do every Wednesday." Regina said
"Don't blame them. It's my fault. I wanted to look in there." Graham said
"Really? Why? What were you looking for?" Regina asked Graham
"Nothing. It was, uh… It was nothing." Graham said
"You don't look well, dear. Let's take you home." Regina said
Regina grabs Graham's arm and starts to drag him with her, but he breaks free of her grasp.
"Regina, I… I don't want to go home. Not with you." Graham said
"Oh? But you'll go with Emma." Regina said
"Hey. This is between you two – leave me out of it." Emma said
"She's right – it's between us. And things have to change." Graham said
"And I wonder why that is all of a sudden." Regina said
"It has nothing to do with her. You know, I've realized that I don't feel anything, Regina. And I know now it's not me – it's you." Graham said
"So, you're leaving me for her?" Regina asked again
"I'm leaving you for me." Graham said
"Graham, you're not thinking straight." Regina said
"Actually, for the first time, I am. I'd rather have nothing than settle for less. Nothing? Is better than what we have. I need to feel something, Regina, and the only way to do that is to give myself a chance." Graham said
"Graham-" Regina said as Graham cuts her off
"I'm sorry. It's over." Graham said
"I don't know what I ever did to you, Miss Swan, to deserve this. To have you keep coming after everything I hold dear." Regina said
"I told you – it's not her." Graham said
"None of this happened until she got here." Regina said
"I'm sorry Regina. But did you ever stop to think that maybe the problem isn't with her, but with you?" Emma asked Regina
"Excuse me?" Regina said
Regina was getting offensive
"Henry found Emma." Melissa said
"Graham kissed me. Both of them were miserable. Maybe, Madam Mayor, you need to take a good hard look in the mirror and ask yourself why that is. Why is everyone running away from you?" Emma asked again
Regina punches Emma in the face, who then falls into Graham.
"Regina! (Emma recovers from the attack and punches Regina back in the face. Emma grabs Regina and pushes her against the side of the crypt. Graham and Melissa tries to split them up.) Stop! Stop! Stop!" Graham said
Graham and Melissa pulls Emma and Regina away from each other.
"Not worth it." Emma said
Both Emma and Melissa starts to leave, walking away from Graham and Regina.
"Graham." Regina said
Regina approaches Graham, but he ignores her and follows both Emma and Melissa.
Graham, Emma, and Margaret are at the station. He has the first aid kit out and puts an ice pack on Emma's head.
"I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me. I kind of lost my mind." Graham said
"It's okay. You were tired and feverish… And heartbroken." Emma said
"I don't know why I let myself get caught up with her." Graham said
"Because it was easy. And safe. Not feeling anything's an attractive option when what you feel sucks. (Graham goes to wipe off the cut on the side of Emma's head. She flinches.) Felt that." Emma said
Melissa smiles at the both of them.
"And that's my exit cue." Melissa said as she leaves
Melissa tried to get to her car and with her hearing ability, she hears Emma yelling. She went back inside and found Emma crying next to Graham's death.
"No! No! No! (Melissa dropped on the floor. She starts crying.) Graham!" Melissa said
Melissa lost her Sheriff and most of all...her friend.
Mystic Falls Past.
Melissa writing in her diary. Someone called her.
"Hello! (Someone crying) Anna! Anna what's wrong?" Melissa asked Anna
"He killed Harper and my mom." Anna said as she was crying
"I'm coming." Melissa said
Melissa grabs the keys but Damon stopped her.
"Where do you think you're going?" Damon asked Melissa
"Anna needs me." Melissa said
"Why?" Damon asked again
"Pearl's dead. And for Anna I've been looking out for her. Not just her but Harper as well." Melissa explain
Damon let Melissa go.
Pearl's Residence.
Melissa sees Anna crying over her mom's body and she sees Harper's body laying on the ground. She leans on Harper and starts crying.
"Harper. I'm so sorry. I could've find some way to protect you." Melissa said
Melissa cupped Harper's face.
"I know who did it." Anna said
"John?" Melissa asked Anna
"Yes." Anna said
