Recap

Bridget takes Matt to the doctor to get treated. The doctor is Lucy Fife, Richie Fife’s sister.  Frank pounds on the door of the Lisko house demanding the original video tape but Matt and Bridget aren’t home yet. Hilde takes off and she and her friends convince Principal Kim Collins to let them see the original tape. She leaves the room so that they can make copies. 

 

Bridget and Kim Collins decide to work together to help with Penny Gillis’ final wishes. Bridget tells Sam that she wants to help set him free. 

 

On the original tape is a young Al Wergeles, aka “Bird Man.” Supposedly he left school and was home-schooled. One rumor said he was caught mutilating birds and had a freezer full of dead birds in his house. He was arrested for criminal mischief for damaging a bull dozer at a construction site. And Birdman supposedly beat up Richie Fife one day after School. 

 

Izzy cleans the whole house and makes dinner for her parents. Matt spends the afternoon with Izzy and realizes how difficult things have been for her since the move and sees the mean girls who bully her. He tells Izzy to forget about fitting in and to be herself even when it isn’t easy. 

 

Al, aka Birdman tells Hilde and her friends that he attacked the bulldozer because it was going to destroy his best bird watching tree. He says Matt and his friends gave him the nickname Birdman, and it’s obvious they bullied him. As a kid, Al gave the tape to the Sheriff as soon as he saw what was on it. The Sheriff told him not to tell anyone or else he’s bring the boy up on charges. He even gave him $40 as a reward. 

 

Briggs was a police captain and ran for sheriff right after Sam Gillis was convicted. 

 

HIlde goes to the town hall Q & A and asks Sheriff Briggs who is running unopposed for the office once again, why he failed to submit the video tape of Richie Fife’s abduction. He refuses to answer and calls it “fake news” even when Matt backs up his daughter. The Sheriff has his deputies haul Matt our of the hall. 

 

Hilde publishes the video with her father’s blessing. Moments later, someone sets the green bicycle on fire outside the Lisko’s garage.

Home Before Dark Season 1 Episode 4 Quotes

Hilde: You guys keep using the word fine. You told me that when people keep using the same word over and over again, that usually means they’re lying.
Matt: I love that you remember that. I love it a little less that you’re trying to use it against me.

Spoon: What’s a microfiche?
Hilde: It’s like the internet but older and slower and way harder to find things.
