During a sleepover with her friends at Shannon's, Shannon reveals that she has been mapping out where she thinks the beast has been around the village and wants to go hunt for it. Maddy has a cold and so Shannon gives her a herbal pill to make her feel better. It turns out to contain wolfsbane, which causes Maddy to partially transform into her wolf; she has yellow eyes, sharp teeth and an intense hunger. Rhydian tries desperately to restrain her before she reveals them both, dragging her upstairs and locking both of them in the bathroom so he can show Maddy her reflection. Tom and Shannon race up the stairs after them and Rhydian lies that Maddy's being sick. Neither of them believe it, and while Tom is jealous of Rhydian, Shannon thinks Maddy is faking for attention from the boys. Rhydian finds online that thistle root can reverse the effects of wolfsbane but doesn't have time to find any before Shannon snaps and leaves for the woods alone, taking a bowl of meat as bait, and Rhydian and Tom follow her to make sure she is safe. Rhydian, Tom and Shannon go hunting for the beast on the moors whilst Maddy escapes and hunts down the nearest source of meat. Rhydian finds thistle root and tackles Maddy, forcing her to eat it, which brings her back to normal. She tells Shannon she had an allergic reaction to the herb pill and they reconcile. Back at the house, she jokes with Shannon and Tom and tells Rhydian how happy she is to be doing normal things again with normal people, and Rhydian says there is nothing normal about her friends.
