Lulu stares at Charlotte with intensity… and Charlotte stares back, smiling; there is a strange connection, Lulu says, she feels to this child.  She attempts to talk to Charlotte but is interrupted by Valentin, who insists they need to get headed home.  Lulu claims, at first, it’s probably just because the girl is related to Nikolas; but she can’t shake this strange attraction.  Laura talks to Kevin about the situation; she is worried about Lulu.  Nothing is mentioned, whatsoever, about Kiki in this episode – I am worried about Kiki.  Last we saw of her, she had taken an aptitude test online, supposedly discovering her true calling – with somewhat intense interest, she makes a phone call as she walks out of the diner; she bumps into Tom Baker, who looks her up and down very creepily.  She doesn’t seem to notice, and is her usual sweet, self, being very kind to her; he smiles.  As she rounds the corner of the building, he follows her.  This was last Thursday.  

Anna is still talking to Robert; he gives her some information, which she immediately looks up on her tablet – the Bedlington Academy, where Valentin supposedly lived as a child, has burned down to the ground.  They believe it just may have been arson and Anna believes that Valentin very well may be behind it.  Andre sits down at the table with her; he asks how she’s doing and she says she is fine.  He can tell something is bothering her though; he can also tell she won’t share any specific details at this time.  Andre and Jordan are still having difficulty with their relationship; neither one of them are sharing many details with each other at this time either.  Franco is still trying to process everything his mother said to him; at times, he probably feels like a balloon that is about to explode – and then there’s than pin-prick.  Can he help himself?  What can he do to convince Elizabeth that he is not a monster??  Elizabeth appears to be pretty freaked out by him again.  Things aren’t looking good for them; Franco really blew it this time, I think.
