Lindy (Victoria Justice) and Tommy (Casey Jon Deidrick) head over to Reese's apartment after finding out he's a Vic and not the killer in last week's ep.  Where Lindy manages to walk into a mobile made out of human teeth as well as a mannequin.  She feels guilty, as she should, that's three that have been killed cos of her.  Though I have to ask why the killer hasn't made a move on Jake (Ryan Cooper) he's been getting away for a while now.  I know he's their number one suspect, but to me that's all he is.  Even if they did try and make you think otherwise.  The DNA on the teeth comes back to female and that of Julia Becker.  Lindy recalls her mother reached out to her after filing a missing person's report and the police did nothing.  Tommy can't find a report in their database.  This means Reese is still alive, for now and Lindy feels relieved.

Connor (John Garet Stoker) is at work and his boss asks who filed the 'fluff' piece 'Pets on Vine'. Connor admits it was him cos it was fun at the time and if he doesn't come up with anything better then he's fired.  He says he's working on something, that being the photos he swiped from the CS board last ep.  He also texts Sophia (Kiersey Clemons).  Tommy and Lindy break the news about Julia to her mother and Lindy just stands by as she breaks down.  Yeah don't help her.  Lindy heads for the shower when she gets home, whilst someone appears to be watching her though the window. She hears a noise but it's Sophia, who is planning a girl's night in for both of them at the weekend. Was it just me or did Lindy suddenly lose her black slippers?? or was she wearing them when she imagined she saw someone sneak past behind her.  Cos next minute they're gone.

She finds a birthday card in her mail which she disregards, guessing it was from her father and then a white envelope with "surprise" written on it.  I can't fathom that Lindy is a hacker and yet she just throws her mail into the bin without even tearing her name and address up.  Yet she was worried Jake found her address when she only gave him her phone number.  Anyway, she finds a picture of her and Sarah in the envelope and there's blood on her clothes.  Tommy thinks he can analyze it using pixel programme and Catherine (Melanie Nicholls-King) has a word with Lindy.  The photo was taken on Sarah's birthday a few weeks before she was abducted.  She asks why Sarah's bracelet is missing in the second photo.  Lindy says she lost it so she was angry with her.  Tommy gets a hit on   the photo which were all put together from three other CS.  One where they thought it was a mob killing as the man had his fingers removed.  Another one a woman had her breasts cut out and in the third the Vic has his eyes gouged out after a mugging.

Lindy finds they were all on the Virtual website so he was an "equal opportunity" killer as Tommy puts it.  Connor asks Sophia for info on the case as they're both involved and were at the station.  She can't tell him but writes it down, "they found teeth."  Jake calls Lindy but she ignores him.  Funny they had garlic and onions in their kitchen and they don't even cook.  Lindy is angry when she finds out that Connor posted the story as his blogger name is "insomnia."  She heads down to his boxing class and she brings him down.  He's not sorry but his boss, Hamish (Eric Sheffer Stone) says he made him do it.  He knows everything about her cos he claims to have Googled her.  So is this another suspect in the mix then.

George (Harvey Guillen) covered for Lindy at work and she asks George if he can pull a background on the photo.  He finds it's static but the type from a TV.  She thinks it's from Reese's apartment.  So they break in when George uses his fancy gizmo.  Funny Reese's bananas haven't rotted either in the bowl.  They find a list of Italian movies and she gets the notion that the first words of each film makes up an acronym, "Myperfico" meaning perfection.

Lindy tells the others and that she thinks that the killer is killing cos of the Vic's flaws they all tried to hide them online and when he found them out he killed them.  The first man used to bite his nails, the woman had her breasts done and the third wore contacts.  Julia had crooked teeth which she hated and never opened her mouth and their latest Vic had her face disfigured as she had skin blemishes. Tommy sees Jake at the station and he's filed a report cos someone put malware on his phone. Tommy thinks he might suspect Lindy.  Sophia calls and asks if she remembered the egg rolls which she goes back to get and meets Tommy.  He was trying to call her.  When she enters everyone shouts, "surprise" as Sophia's thrown her a birthday party.  Which she hates.  Tommy tells her he hated his too.  She's thinking of Ben and he says it's better to think of such things than to keep them in.  Jake arrives as Tommy leaves since they've found Reese's clothes.

He gives her a present, his fave restaurant menus, yeah that was original, look a cheap lawyer!  Ha. Yeah I know it's cos they don't cook.  He tells her he found her address cos it's easy with a number and he probably creeped her out.  Someone starts a fire in the bath and Lindy feels faint.  Jake leaves to get water and she's taken away by the killer.  Jake is arrested since the clothes were found in his apartment.  Lindy wakes and sees Reese with the killer who slits his throat, as he dies, he drops a gift onto the ground.

Tommy tells her they let Jake go cos she was with the killer at the time and he was in custody.  She's sad and knows that the killer is after her cos he thinks she's perfect, but she's not.  She has so many flaws and asks what will happen when he finds that out.   The gift contains the bracelet that she gave Sarah.  Wasn't it just half of the bracelet.  I still say that the killer's voice sounds like Ben and should I stick my neck out by adding it sounds like a put-on accent.  But then we're also meant to think it could still be Connor cos he's disgruntled about the piece he wrote and Sophia doesn't want anything to do with him.  So as he was told to leave, maybe he's meant to have come back for Lindy, but who spiked er drink cos he didn't come into the apartment.  Unless it was done beforehand.  Of course we all know what 'HBTU' means! ha.  Happy Birthday To You, just incase you didn't.
